A period of U.S. history that I was never taught growing up and going through the U.S. educational system, is how the U.S. Government and the U.S. military treated U.S. war veterans who had fought during Word War I during the Great Depression.

Tens of thousands of U.S. veterans from World War I marched to Washington D.C. in 1932, to petition Congress to pay them their compensation for fighting in the War. A bill had been passed in 1924 to do just that, but they had to wait until 1945 to collect that “bonus”, or it could be paid earlier to their family as a death benefit if they died.

Many of them were homeless and destitute, like millions of other Americans, during the Great Depression in 1932.

They literally setup camp in areas around Washington D.C. that year, and their efforts saw some results when the House of Representatives passed a bill to pay them sooner than 1945.

But President Herbert Hoover threatened to veto the bill, and it was overwhelmingly defeated in the Senate.

When the war veterans did not go home, Hoover ordered to have the veterans removed from Washington D.C.

Army Chief of Staff General Douglas MacArthur, along with his assistant Major Dwight D. Eisenhower, usually revered as “heroes” in American history (Eisenhower went on to become President), proceeded to attack and kill some of these U.S. veterans to forcibly remove them from Washington D.C., calling them “communists”. (President Hoover was a “self-made” Wall Street millionaire and a Conservative Republican.)

Hoover lost his re-election bid a few months later, and was replaced by Franklin D. Roosevelt (FDR).

I have produced a video that documents these events in 1932, including original film footage and photos, that is only 30 minutes long.

Lessons for Today from U.S. History

The dates and faces may change throughout American history, but some things really do not change at all.

First, the people in Washington D.C. who run the country do NOT serve the American people. They serve the interests of the Globalist Billionaires on Wall Street, and today also in Silicon Valley.

They have no moral problems with killing American citizens to achieve their goals of wealth and power, and it doesn’t matter which political office is currently in power.

We saw this in action most recently during the COVID Scam.

Secondly, they are able to continue on with these crimes against the citizens of the U.S. by dividing people into political groups, so that they always have around 50% of the country supporting them, because they are attacking the other half of the people in this country who belong to the opposing political party.

During the “Bonus Army” protests in D.C. in 1932, this country was able to observe something that is very rare in American history, and that was people from different groups, such as whites and blacks, which was very rare in 1932, overcome their differences to fight a common cause and against a common single enemy – Those ruling in Washington D.C.

And they did it peacefully, until the law enforcement and the U.S. military got involved. The violence originated with the U.S. Government.

Third, the members of the U.S. military take an oath to protect this country, and when you as a military soldier turn your weapons against other citizens of this country to appease the billionaires, you are ALWAYS WRONG.

Brave military personnel stood against the billionaires when they refused mandatory COVID-19 vaccines, and valued truth over their careers and pensions.

These are important principles to keep in mind here at the beginning of 2025, as one political party leaves office, and the other one takes over.

The incoming administration, Conservative Republicans, is already threatening to eliminate free speech on American university and college campuses, by eliminating any groups who oppose the actions of Israel, and if they can get away with it, they will most certainly try the same actions against the entire U.S. population.

The new administration is also already threatening to deploy the military onto American streets, and indeed this is already happening, such as in the subway system of New York City.

The only way to fight tyranny, is to understand who your real enemies are, and they are NOT your fellow citizens who believe differently from you.

May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you a spirit of unity among yourselves as you follow Christ Jesus, so that with one heart and mouth you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God. (Romans 15:5-7)

As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received. Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.

Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.

There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to one hope when you were called—one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all. (Ephesians 4:1-6)
