When The Bankers Plotted To Overthrow FDR : NPR ↘

Critics on the right worried that Roosevelt was a Communist, a socialist or the tool of a Jewish conspiracy. Critics on the left complained his policies didn’t go far enough. Some of Roosevelt’s opponents didn’t stop at talk. Though it’s barely remembered today, there was a genuine conspiracy to overthrow the president.

The Wall Street Putsch, as it’s known today, was a plot by a group of right-wing financiers.

“They thought that they could convince Roosevelt, because he was of their, the patrician class, they thought that they could convince Roosevelt to relinquish power to basically a fascist, military-type government,” Denton says.

This is actually a really fascinating story also please look up General Smedley Butler and the Bonus Army …they occupied D.C. for weeks…and the Us military used force and violence to evict them…Occupy is not the first! The banks actually wanted General Butler to run the coup….he wasnt down but ratted them in… but FDR didnt do anything because he was knee deep in corporate bank scum,……kiss kiss
