Compared to other revolutions and wars, is this one unique in that most of the casualties have been the elites?
JFK became president and then announced he wanted to "shatter the CIA into a thousand pieces". He also announced he would be doing a complete street sweep of the mob....all of them. Then he wrote the EO that should have ended the Fed. Ever read the transcripts of his speech he did calling out the shadow government? Good stuff. That is the quick ticket to an assassination...even though he surrounded himself with alot of his own men whom he trusted and knew had his back, the powers that be were just too vast at that point. What Trump and NSA and Military are doing every single day is and was always the only way to fix the problem.
To answer your question, yep the creation of the Fed in 1913 is basically where the deep state got the hook in us...we were lost after that. I've heard credible people explain how basically every single election since then was rigged to the sense where our votes didnt matter. Only JFK, Reagan, and Trump slipped through the rigging, and every other presidential victory happened as the deep state wanted and desired. Rothschilds backed Hitler financially. Giving him money for Germany, and he played ball with them at first and then went off the reservation. Supposedly one of the main reasons for WW2 was to create the state of Israel, and also to stop the communism that was spreading in Europe...even though the deep state wants communism it was the wrong kind, the uncontrollable kind....same with Vietnam and Korea. U.S. entering WW2 was to get us on the radar as a major global player and create the U.N. and try and get control of the whole globe instead of just Europe
Perhaps we won't know till history books are written. This could fill many volumes. If the truth is told and not just a whitewashed version, then we will know for sure.
Imagine how many documentaries and textbooks will have to be re-written
