I am what the media calls a “conspiracy theorist” — a derogatory term used to smear a critical thinker who questions the statements of known liars.

Teddy Roosevelt stated in a 1913 autobiography that, “Behind the ostensible government sits enthroned an invisible government …”

And in the 1986 Iran/Contra hearings, U.S. Sen. Daniel Inouye, a Democrat from Hawaii, spoke of “a shadowy government … free from all checks and balances, and free from the law itself.”

So, the conspiracy is not just a theory and it is Donald Trump and his supporters who are combating it for the sake of all Americans — even the willingly ignorant who denigrate and hate us.
