The LaRouche PAC: Questions, Challenges, and My First Meeting with the Lyndon LaRouche Movement

Yesterday I sat down with Tim from the Lyndon LaRouche movement. Tim is based in Leesburg, and we met in Charles Town / Ranson, West Virginia. This was my first meeting with someone from the the Lyndon LaRouche movement. Prior to this, I'd say I have followed their material online for roughly 8 months.

My Connection:

I mentioned that I had heard of the LaRouche movement for years, as many have during his  numerous presidential campaigns, but I rediscovered the Lyndon LaRouche Movement, the LaRouchePAC, and the LYM (LaRouche Youth Movement) because of content from Webster Tarpley.

I will include a video, so anyone can see something from Tarpley (something different from his LaRouche work that is). In 2014, I had been researching Zbigniew Brzezinski, and I first learned of Webster's work because of one of his lectures on Zbig. Thanks to the popularity of Alex Jones and Infowars, I found Webster Tarpley's videos on YouTube again, and I learned Webster had been with the LaRouche movement for decades.

I asked Tim if he knew Webster Tarpley personally, and he said yes. Then, I asked why he left the LaRouche movement, and Tim replied by saying that he wasn't entirely sure, but overtime, Webster drifted from the movement and preferred to have his name on the Marquis rather than keeping it about ideas.

The next person I inquired about was if Tim personally knew Jason Ross, or as I call him the incomparable Jason Ross. I am perhaps his biggest fan. I will include the first video I found of Jason Ross, and I will mention him in a future blog post more devoted to his work.

In this video, Jason is in the thumbnail on the left.

The Issues: 

Now, moving onward to a discussion of the issues related to the LaRouche Movement.

Tim made an interesting comment that LaRouche might have written more words from his typewriter than any other writer presently alive, and my first impression of the LaRouche Movement was similar. Their platform is very detailed. On Wikipedia, you can find a quote from saying that LaRouche is the only candidate to make interpretations of Plato part of his presidential campaign.

One of the first things that is notable about this platform is that it is Platonic. The bullet points are not only bullet points, and the Tim explained (to paraphrase) that when political ideas are presented only in point by point commentary, they form into a closed and Aristotelian mold. The political points need to connect to larger expanding and limitless ideas in the Platonic Sense.

The Four Economic Laws of LaRouche,  Provided to Me

Glass Steagall: (the Bretton Woods legislation that prevents investment banks from getting too large and powerful. The removal of Glass Steagall offered investment banks the same financial protections that are given to savings banks. Goldman Sachs could be treated the same way the as the bank on Main Street)

As for LaRouche's first law on Glass Steagall. Tim informed me that he had been part of a group that attended a Hillary Clinton Rally, and shouted her down to reinstate Glass Steagall. The audience wanted Hillary to say yes, she would reinstate it, but Hillary could not say so. Hillary Clinton was a pro-financier Wall Street candidate, but she's done for now.

For the second law, let's talk more about Nationalizing the Federal Reserve.

The Conspiracies: 

For starters, the LaRouche movement hates Robert Mueller, as Mueller was involved with the Trial of Lyndon LaRouche, which sent him to jail for five years. They view Mueller's attempts to investigate Trump as a similar political establishment hit man.

This is quite different from Webster Tarpley and the Tax Wall Street Party, which endorses the work of the Mueller, calls for more investigation into Russiagate, and also wants to bring down Trump.

Does Lyndon LaRouche hate the Jews? 

During our discussion, I also had the opportunity to bring up certain popular challenges to the LaRouche movement.

One of the first things I ever asked Tim was about a famous conspiracy promulgated by Dennis King. When Lyndon LaRouche uses the word "British" it is a actually a code word for "Jewish."
I told Tim, I just have to ask because you know first hand....what is going on with that? Tim's response was simple. He stated that it was ridiculous, and it was just the result of throwing mud at teh wall. If you do it enough, some of it will stick. Many people who work with LaRouche are Jewish, and Tim even mentioned that his father is Jewish. He states with certainty that there is no ounce of anti-Jewish presence in the LaRouche movement.

Instead, when LaRouche uses the word "British" it not only refers to Great Britain, but also the financial and banking powers that are behind the British government and the former remnants of the British Empire. This statement was concurred by Daniel Pipes.

I just realized this post is so enormous, I am going to have to divide it into two or three. I'll post an adjoining link here.
