A small number of very rich men are quite sure they know what is best for the future of the world and have enough wealth and influence to believe they can make it happen. They can be called oligarchs, but the term is inadequate. They are a special category, the shapers of the Global Governance destined to replace bourgeois democracy. I can name two: one who is famous, notorious even, but very old, and another who is a generation younger, not yet so well known or so rich but probably even more influential.

President Donald Trump takes aim at Republicans on Twitter30/12/2020|3min
President Donald Trump has once again taken to Twitter to criticise his Republican counterparts in the Senate over several critical policy issues.
The president has labelled Republican leadership weak and tired and has warned its congressional members to negotiate better bills or get better leaders .
President Trump s grievances surround a bill which gives tech companies legal protections - which he is urging Congressional Republicans to repeal - and also the National Defence Authorisation Act.
The president wants congress to remove provisions in that act which allow confederate names to be removed from military installations.
