The DSAC and the OSAC are well established initiatives which have already integrated corporations, states, and the federal government in a whole-of-government approach to creating a centralized, \u201cone size fits all\u201d society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What is the DSAC? Let\u2019s go to their website and read how this organization describes itself. [italics are mine]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>The Domestic Security Alliance Council (DSAC) is a <em>public-private partnership<\/em> offered by the <em>Federal Bureau of Investigation<\/em>\u2019s Office of Private Sector and the Department of Homeland Security\u2019s Office of <em>Intelligence<\/em> and Analysis that enhances communication and promotes the timely and effective <em>exchange of security and intelligence information<\/em> between <em>the federal government and the private sector<\/em>.\u201d <\/p><cite>dsac.gov\/about<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let\u2019s translate this bureaucratese into normal English.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What does public-private partnership mean? It means that the corporate cartel and the government cooperate in programs that are run by unelected private citizens in the corporate sector. Why do this? When the federal government wants to execute an unpopular and unconstitutional operation, it liaises with businesses to execute the program, so that government officials can deny responsibility for unwanted outcomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The DSAC description says that the FBI works with the DHS\u2019s Office of Intelligence and Analysis. \u201cIntelligence\u201d means the CIA and other spy agencies like the NSA and the DIA. But the FBI is not supposed to be an intelligence organization. It is supposed to be a domestic crime-solving and law enforcement organization. The CIA and the other 17 intel agencies are barred from acting domestically. Here we see that the DSAC is an unconstitutional organization that combines spying on U.S. citizens with the law enforcement capabilities of the FBI, which can arrest or detain persons. As Mike Benz describes in his interview with Russell Brand, the DSAC is another in a multi-pronged effort to destroy democracy and turn the power of the state ahainst its citizens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What does the DSAC do? It \u201cexchanges security and intelligence information between the federal government and the private sector.\u201d What does that mean? It means that corporations collect info on people and send it to the CIA and the FBI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is a complete and classic description of <em>fascism.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBig deal,\u201d you say. \u201cCorporations collect information all the time. They need to know what you bought and how much you spent and when you bought it, and your preferences for future sales.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, that is legitimate business activity. But that is not the purpose of DSAC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let\u2019s go further on the DSAC website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><strong>Partnerships<\/strong><\/p><p>\u201cDSAC facilitates strong, enduring relationships among its private sector member companies, <em>across the FBI enterprise<\/em>, and with the <em>Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Headquarters and Fusion Centers<\/em>, in addition to <em>other federal government entities<\/em> to <em>detect, prevent, and deter criminal acts.<\/em> The program strategically designates government and private sector points of contact to maintain and maximize collaboration across entities. Together, these representatives of DSAC <em>effectively align local, state, and national security priorities<\/em>.\u201d<\/p><cite>dsac.gov\/about<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAcross the FBI enterprise\u201d means that all divisions of the FBI, including the counter-terrorism and intelligence divisions and the guys with guns who break down your front door, get everything the corporate members send. That information isn\u2019t just business information; it\u2019s any information about you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;What are fusion centers?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Fusion Centers are state-owned and operated centers that serve as focal points in states and major urban areas for the receipt, analysis, gathering and sharing of <em>threat-related information<\/em> between State, Local, Tribal and Territorial (SLTT), federal and private sector partners.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p><cite>https:\/\/www.dhs.gov\/fusion-centers<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What is \u201cthreat-related information?\u201d Anything the government wants it to be. How many fusion centers are there in the US? As of February 2018, there are 79 fusion centers all across the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDetect, prevent, and deter criminal acts\u201d is bureaucratese for Minority Report style \u201cgotcha\u201d information collection operations that report on unwanted people who express opinions the government doesn\u2019t like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What does \u201ceffectively align local, state, and national security priorities\u201d mean? It means complete centralization of all policies. The federal nature of our government \u2013 initiatives at the national, state, and local level to better serve the public \u2013 will disappear into a sociopathic hive mind where a very few make \u201cone size fits all\u201d decisions for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><strong>Our Value Proposition<\/strong><\/p><p>\u201cDSAC member companies have a <em>direct line<\/em> to the FBI and DHS to exchange threat-related information and to work together closely and efficiently when an <em>incident <\/em>occurs. Members also gain access to a trusted network of U.S. <em>senior security officials from major companies around the world<\/em>. DSAC offers professional development to security professionals from intelligence analysts to security vice presidents and CSOs.\u201d<\/p><cite>dsac.gov\/about<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So Okay, if you are a small business and are being hassled by thieves and break-ins, you can just call your local fusion center and get help, right? After all, many cities have significantly defunded their police departments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But wait a minute. Corporate members have access to senior security officials from major companies \u201caround the world?\u201d Yeah, so this is a world-wide spy\/intelligence\/corporate network, not just a U.S. one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><strong>Membership<\/strong><\/p><p>\u201cDSAC is a corporate membership program. Member companies are <em>for-profit<\/em> and must generate a <em>minimum of $1 billion in annual revenue<\/em>, have a chief security officer and security team based in the United States, and <em>show a nexus to U.S. national and economic security<\/em>.\u00a0<\/p><cite>dsac.gov\/about<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No, DSAC isn\u2019t for middle-class and working class entrepreneurs. This is for fat cats and those who are already connected into the national security state. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So how did the DSAC get established? Let\u2019s take a look at the history of the DSAC from their own website. Here we will see the connection to OSAC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><strong>History<\/strong><\/p><p>\u201cIn the fall of 2005, a steering committee composed of CSOs from a number of the country\u2019s largest corporations began meeting with FBI officials and members of the <em>State Department\u2019s Overseas Security Advisory Council (OSAC) <\/em>at FBI Headquarters. The committee\u2019s objective was to create a domestic security organization <em>modeled after OSAC<\/em> to connect private sector security experts and to serve as a vehicle for exchanging information with the Bureau. The FBI agreed to set up and lead the Domestic Security Alliance Council (DSAC), which was officially approved by the FBI Director in December 2005.<\/p><p>\u201cIn 2008, the DHS joined the DSAC program, and in 2011, the program was formally elevated to the level of the FBI Director\u2019s Office. In 2012, the inaugural DSAC charter was signed, which established the joint operation of DSAC by the FBI and DHS. Subsequently, top executives from both agencies have committed resources to carry out the DSAC mission.<\/p><p>\u201cThe DSAC program has grown to include <em>more than 650 member companies <\/em>representing every critical sector and over 70 unique business subsectors. <em>DSAC member companies collectively account for nearly two-thirds of the U.S. Gross Domestic Product and employ more than 35 million people.\u201d<\/em><\/p><cite>dsac.gov\/about<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wow. In addition, the State Department\u2019s OSAC program provides diplomatic cover for those spies who get caught trying to collect info on persons in other countries, or who engage in unauthorized intelligence PsyOps or foreign government \u201cflipping\u201d operations. If informants get caught they are protected by their OSAC passports and can\u2019t be prosecuted. This is nothing new for CIA covered personnel; it has been doing this for decades. However, to my mind the DSAC is a global expansion of authoritarian power to include governments and multinational corporations, a worldwide, dystopian integration of the public and private sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the United States, DSAC and OSAC seem to legalize and formalize an alliance between private sector corporations and bought off government agencies and Congress, all controlled by the billionaires who own most of the assets of this country..<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So what can we do about this? Will Stasi operations like these succeed in being established in the US? I don\u2019t think they will because too many people are waking up to these and other anti-human programs. Even talking about these things is painful, but I have always thought that before the human race can achieve peace on earth we will have to understand and fix the dark underbelly of human society on our planet. To do that we must be informed, and not hope it will just go away.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thanks to Jeffrey Prather and The Prather Point podcast for uncovering this.
