America’s Untold Stories with Eric Hunley and Mark Groubert discuss the amazing incredible life of Smedley Darlington Butler.
We may say of Butler what was earlier stated concerning George Washington –“First in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen.”
These famous words about Washington come from a eulogy written by Henry “Light Horse Harry” Lee. Lee was a major general in the Continental Army, member of the Continental Congress, governor of Virginia, father of the famous Civil War general Robert E. Lee, and close friend of George Washington.
The Plot To Seize The White House, by Jules Archer, tells the shocking true story of how United States Marine Corps Major General Smedley Darlington Butler was the savior of our Republic from a fascist plot by Wall Street plutocratic militarists in the early 1930s.
Author Jules Archer is featured in The History Channel documentary, The Plot To Overthrow FDR, a concise summary of his exceptional book.
Smedley Butler was the author of the timeless, incisive and devastatingly powerful indictment of mass slaughter and war profiteering, War is a Racket.
