As usual, the Rockefellers and other globalists had their hands in this. Your state isn’t the only thing divided into ‘regions’ for the purpose of destroying local control.
The Ten Federal Regions (1972)
[Editor’s note: This chapter has been condensed. The original text is available at the Author’s website.]
On April 21, 1935, the New York Times magazine published a plan in which the States would merge into new units called Federal Regions that would be controlled from Washington, DC. In 1959, Nelson Rockefeller called for an Advisory Commission on Intergovernmental Relations (ACIR), which became a federally-funded Rockefeller think-tank within Congress to prepare a working formula for the concept. The ACIR analyzed information produced by the Public Administration Clearing House (also known as the “1313”) and translated it into legislation to develop regional government, which would usurp the power of the local government.
The Clearing House, located at the Rockefeller-controlled University of Chicago, represented a group of 26 private organizations which had been infiltrating local government agencies to usurp their power and authority. Some of these organizations are: National Association of Counties, National League of Cities, U.S. Conference of Mayors, American Public Works Association, Public Personnel Association, National Association of Attorney Generals, and the National Governors Conference. Their purpose was to train and place a “new administrative class” in every level of government, which would replace elected officials.
On March 27, 1969, as published in the Federal Register, under the direction of his Illuminati advisers [including Nelson Rockefeller] President Nixon announced the “Restructuring of Government Service Systems” plan which called for the merging of the States into eight [later ten] federally-controlled regions.
Executive Order #11647 was signed by Nixon on February 10, 1972, establishing Federal Regional Councils for the “development of closer working relationships between major Federal grant-making agencies of State and local government.” An Executive Order, when decreed by the President, is printed in the Federal Register, and then [unless challenged by Congress] becomes law 15 days later.
This Executive Order was unconstitutional because Article IV of the U.S. Constitution prohibited the merging of the states, and guaranteed a government represented by elected officials. However, regional government was accepted [by the states], because it brought with it “revenue-sharing” funds.
In each of the ten standard Federal Regions, there was to be a Council made up of the directors of the regional offices of [Federal departments and agencies]. The President was to designate one member of each Council as the Chairman. Here is how the ten Regions are organized (with the regional offices in parenthesis):
Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts (Boston), Connecticut, Rhode Island
New York (New York), New Jersey, Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico
Pennsylvania (Philadelphia), Maryland, Delaware, West Virginia, Virginia, District of Columbia
Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia (Atlanta), South Carolina, Florida
Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois (Chicago), Indiana, Ohio
New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas (Dallas-Ft. Worth), Arkansas, Louisiana
Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas (Kansas City), Missouri
Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado (Denver)
Arizona, Nevada, Hawaii, California (San Francisco), American Samoa, Guam, N. Mariana Islands, Marshall Islands, Micronesia
Idaho, Washington (Seattle), Oregon, Alaska
In October, 1976, Jimmy Carter said before the National Association of Regional Councils (NARC):
“I believe that regional organizations should be strengthened. If elected President, I intend first to upgrade the role of regional councils representing the federal government to assist State and local officials, as well as private citizens, in dealing with federal agencies … I also intend to encourage the development of regional councils representing State and local governments.”
Carter expanded the Federal Regional System on July 20, 1979 with Executive Order #12149 to “provide a structure for interagency and intergovernmental cooperation … to establish practical and appropriate liaison functions with State, tribal, regional and local officials.”
Each of the ten Councils were made up of a representative from each of the following agencies: Dept. of the Interior; Dept. of Agriculture; Dept. of Commerce; Dept. of Labor; Dept. of Health, Education, and Welfare; Dept. of Housing and Urban Development; Dept. of Transportation; Dept. of Energy; Environmental Protection Agency; Community Services Administration; Office of Personnel Management; General Services Administration; ACTION (Peace Corp., VISTA, senior citizen programs, and other special volunteer programs); Small Business Administration; Federal Emergency Management Agency; U.S. Army Corps of Engineers; and the Regional Action Planning Commission. It included over 550 aid programs and block grants. The Department of Education was added later, after it separated from the Dept. of Health, Education and Welfare (which became the Dept. of Health and Human Services).
So, now we see how regionalism was created so that the federal government, already infiltrated by globalists, could gain control over the states. If you read the rest of the page, you will learn how con-cons are used to wield power over the states.
Still think a constitutional convention is a wise thing to do after reading the rest of the source page?
