Badlands Book Club: The Creature From Jekyll Island - Chapter 14 Part 2

CannCon and Ashe in America finish out Chapter 14 of The Creature from Jekyll Island by G. Edward Griffin, picking up with what the book calls the Transfusion Mechanism. This week covers how American taxpayers ended up quietly subsidizing Soviet Russia and its satellites long after Lend Lease officially ended, through below market trade deals, guaranteed loans, and bailouts routed through agencies like the IMF and World Bank. The hosts trace how that same pattern continued into the 1990s, with a long list of major American corporations and their CFR connected executives rushing into former Soviet territory once Yeltsin opened the door. Expect a frustrating but eye opening look at how consistent this playbook has been across decades, plus a quick preview of Chapter 15 coming next week.
