Russia Intends To "Bury" The United States By Working From Within Says Elizabeth Graham, Bestselling Author Of From Democracy To Democrazy


The American people were deceived into believing the Cold War ended in the early 1990’s. It did not.

Elizabeth Graham had a Top-Secret Security Clearance while a senior in high school, and immediately upon graduation began working undercover with the CIA.  She later joined the SAIC's Foreign Systems Research Center (FSRC) for 12 years.  Eight of these years were spent studying Russia and Russian, and she managed the largest Russian-language military, technical and intelligence library in the U.S. She began to travel to the Soviet Union and then became one of the very few Americans to move to the USSR. She lived under Communism in the Soviet Union, then Russia, and Central Asia long enough to become bi-cultural - she became Russian. Her first-hand knowledge and understanding of life in a communist or dictatorship country – as compared to a democracy - is shared with Americans in her book and it should serve as a warning to all Americans.
 
In a recent article, bestselling author Elizabeth Graham stated the following:
 
From 1953 to 1964, Nikita Khrushchev was the leader of the Soviet Union and the First Secretary of the Communist Party. In his famous November 17, 1956, speech, he threatened the United States by saying “We will take America without firing a shot. We do not have to invade the U.S. We will destroy you from within.” This was 68 years ago.  Let’s be very clear, he was referring to the type of destruction, hatred, racism, lies, crime, and intimation/bullying seen daily executed by Donald Trump.
 
“History shows that disinformation and propaganda are terrifyingly potent tools in suppressing nations, creating mob (brainwashing) beliefs by deadening free thought and obliterating resistance. Look to Hitler’s Third Reich and the former Soviet Union, for examples. . . These are things our Cold War enemies hope to plan and then exploit.” (The Cold War & disinformation) The American people were deceived into believing the Cold War ended in the early 1990’s. IT DID NOT.
 
Today - some thirty years after Americans were told the Cold War era ceased and “we won,” Vladimir Putin adheres to Khrushchev’s philosophies.  And in turn, Khrushchev’s ideas, propaganda, government by fear, smear campaigns of foreign leaders, and distain for the United States came directly from Vladimir Lenin who lived from 1870 to 1924 and was the Founder of the Russian Communist Party. Lenin said: “democracy is for an insignificant minority and democracy is for the rich - that is the democracy of a capitalist society.” (www.marxists.org)
 
The point is that the Cold War era did not end in the 1990’s and the Russian denigration, condescension, and disrespect for the American way of life has only amplified over the years. Vladimir Putin was a child in the 1950’s (born in 1952) whose dream was to become a member of the KGB and destroy Russia’s enemy – the United States and NATO.
 
This is reality today in the United States. What we are combatting is not just those citizens who do not see the bigger picture or those who are illiterate or under-educated, but a foreign power who is bent on destroying our country and our way of life. Trump will be sitting in the Oval Office soon, but it may be Putin in command.
 
Donald Trump first traveled to Russia in 1987 and made many trips afterward. Due to his narcissism, his conceitedness, and his ego led him to (1) work with Russians, (2) be trapped by the KGB/FSB, and (3) accept large loans from Russian banks (which are all controlled by the FSB/Putin). Trump showed the entire world that he was hooked by Russians when after a face-to-face talk with Putin in Helsinki, Trump contradicted U.S. intelligence agencies and said there was no reason to believe that the Russians interfered in the 2016 election. Several years afterward, the Russians themselves admitted to U.S. election interference in 2016.
 
The bottom line is that Trump will say and do just about anything to save himself, escape criminal convictions, prevent KGB exposure of his Russian entrapment, and continue his moneygrubbing process of spending American taxpayer funds on his own materialistic lifestyle.  He has sold his soul and our country to the Russians, and most of our country are unaware, uninformed, or in disbelief. Many of this generation of Americans do not even know the significance and magnitude of the Cold War or the comparison of Project 2025 to Mein Kampf (Hitler/Germany) or The Foundations of Geopolitics (Dubin and Putin/Russia).
 
As of today, the United States has the fastest growing economy in the whole world. However, more than half our country thinks our economy is in trouble and Trump will “fix it.” In 2016, he survived by taking credit for the good economy created by Obama, and he will again attribute the excellent economy created by Biden to himself in 2025.
 
In the third quarter of 2020, Trump’s last year in office, our economy dropped 32.9% - the largest economic fall in our country’s history. This was partially due to COVID but more directly due to Trump’s spending. NPR published a report titled “3 Months of Hell: Economy Drops 32.9% In Worst GDP Report Ever.” This is the same man who has filed six business bankruptcies, has committed massive business fraud (business, bank, and tax records were evidence), is convicted of 34 felony counts, and was adjudicated and found guilty of sexual abuse and labeled a sexual predator. He must report his address to the local police four times a year, and people in Washington, D.C. may receive a message that a sexual predator lives near them. The address will be 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue – unless Trump will be exonerated for all his many crimes.
 
This is the example our nation has set for the next generation of Americans.
 
All of this information and much more is available in Graham's book, 'From Democracy To Democrazy: A Warning To All Americans', now available at Amazon.
 
In their review of the book, Kirkus Professional Book Reviews said, "Graham's new book is an intriguing and informative 'must read' from a woman who is probably the best-informed American on the terrifying realities concerning Vladimir Putin's motivations and his control over Trump. It is intended as a warning to all Americans."
 
More information is available at her website at https://democrazy2020.org/. She has a new book to be published in 2025 called The Cold War Myth.

About Elizabeth Graham:
 
Elizabeth Graham lives in a quiet rural city in northern Arizona. She had 4 children and has 3 grandchildren. Her oldest daughter died July 16, 2016, while in Japan. Graham believes there was a connection between her daughter’s murder and the U.S. presidential election in 2016. The Tokyo Police ruled her death a homicide, possibly by poison, which is the signature lethal method used by Russians. There is more about her death in From Democracy to Democrazy.
 
Elizabeth was indoctrinated at a young age by her father who was a senior manager working undercover with the CIA. Her college days were in Los Angeles with the desire to become a high school teacher. However, she was destined to study Russia, Russian language, and live a life of Top-Secret clearances and undercover work. This led to senior nonprofit management positions and consulting jobs in strategic places like Moscow and St. Petersburg in Russia, all the former Soviet countries (15 countries including the Baltics, Central Asia, and Ukraine), Pakistan, Afghanistan, Rwanda, Bosnia, Peru, Brazil, and many other locations. In this process of living and working abroad, she became bi-cultural (American to Russian and back).

Tax Reform, Reduced Terrorism, And The Jerusalem Move - Author David Michael Palladino Gives Donald Trump Credit For Making America Great Again

David Michael Palladino writes inspirational fiction. His works address important ideals and values. He utilizes engaging works of fiction to accomplish that goal.

Author David Michael Palladino believes America is finally on the road to recovery. The American tax system has been overhauled, terrorists are being driven from their strongholds and energy development has turned the corner. And after hearing empty promises from no less than four previous presidents, Trump recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

Palladino credits President Trump and his supporters for the gains. He gives credit where credit is due. The battle to "Make America Great Again" is being won.

"Finally, the United States has a president who is putting truth and righteousness before and above politics and his own personal gain," Palladino stated.

For David Michael Palladino, 'Make America Great Again' is not just a political platform - it is instead a rallying cry. The values and ideals that America holds dear lie at the very core of everything he writes. These ideals and values are not something to strive for - they are instead the very heart and soul of what America was, and can be again. Palladino provides a vision of America in his works of fiction that, while based on historical events, also communicates clearly the essence of the American Dream.

Palladino teaches, through his works of fiction, important ideals and values. As a former U.S. Army Ranger, former High School Phys-Ed & Health Teacher and Coach, and founder of “Palladino Martial Arts”, he understands the significance of instilling these all-important ideals and values in people. Both of his books in the Adriana Corderu series help communicate freedom's true meaning to a broad audience. For this reason both will appeal to parents, grandparents and educators and those who are old enough to remember what America used to be. Palladino deftly paints a picture of America as she really was during the Cold War. He shows us clearly why American freedom and American values held such appeal for many oppressed people in other parts of the world.

'Adriana Corderu - Quest for Freedom' is the first book in the series. During the first Cold War the world revolved around the conflict between the theologies of communism and democracy. The two main protagonists in this conflict were the United States in the West, and the Soviet Union in the East. As Eastern Bloc leaders began to tighten restrictions in the lives of their people, commensurate with their increase in power, there began to emerge, in the East, a group of young people, hard and idealistic, adventurous and courageous. These would become the heroes of the movement of their time. These were the brave young souls who, with inspiration from President Reagan, began to break down the Iron Curtain. The escape from Soviet Communism and the quest for freedom are the themes of 'Quest for Freedom'. Set in the Cold War era, the book is the engaging story of Adriana Corderu and her quest to obtain freedom by escaping the Iron Curtain.

His newest book, 'Adriana Corderu - Western Odyssey', is the second book in his series and continues where the first book in the series left off. In the second book, readers will come to know a whole new cast of characters. Adriana continues her journey as she experiences the refugee camps of Italy and comes to know Italian culture with a new family even while under the yoke of the Romanian Securitate, which is still trying to abduct her and bring her back to Eastern Europe. Readers will go with her into the cauldron that was New York City where the only safe place to be was where the Italian Cosa Nostra ruled and will then experience the wonder of the Laurel Highlands of Southwestern Pennsylvania and the rugged big-hearted people who live there.

Adriana experiences heartbreaking loss and the wonders of new love. Readers can learn with her as she remembers her sister’s revelations about America’s regular military, to include units like the 82nd Airborne Division, the 1st Cavalry Division, and the 101st Air Cavalry Screaming Eagles. Readers can then witness the heat of her emotions when she, for the first time, comes into contact with men of the US Army Ranger Battalions. Adriana comes to know these hard men and learns from them of the dramatic differences and contrasts between the US regular military and the units of the US Special Operations Command and Joint Special Operations Command. Readers will be fascinated with units such as the Army Rangers and Green Berets, the Navy SEALS, and other units that make up the US Special Operations Division to include units from the Air Force and Marines. Readers will learn what really happened during Operation Urgent Fury on the island of Grenada in October, 1983 and of the US Military of the “Reagan Era.” The story of Adriana’s Western Odyssey will not only entertain, but will also educate and uplift.

'Quest for Freedom' has received rave reviews. One reviewer stated, "More native born Americans need to know this story and more importantly appreciate our country as she did." Another said, "The readers become engrossed immediately in Palladino's dynamic effervescent style."

David Palladino is available for media interviews and can be reached using the information below or by email at inspirationalbookauthor@yahoo.com. Both books are available at Amazon, Barnes and Noble and Rosedog Books. More information, including samples of his work, is available at Palladino’s website at http://www.inspirationalbookauthor.com.

David Michael Palladino, Author Of Inspirational Book Series, Gives Donald Trump And Sean Hannity Credit For Making America Great Again

David Michael Palladino writes inspirational fiction. His works address important ideals and values. He utilizes engaging works of fiction to accomplish that goal.

In the eyes of David Michael Palladino, America is finally in a position to make real changes. The country faces many challenges, among them illegal immigration, terrorist activity, the economy, healthcare and taxes. The challenges these issues present can be amplified by the "Washington culture" and the media's take on the issues. Palladino sees Donald Trump and Sean Hannity as leaders in what has become a battle to "Make America Great Again."

"During this, his first year in office, President Donald J. Trump appears to be on pace to become as great a leader as the great president Ronald W. Reagan," Palladino stated. "If President Trump continues at his current rate of effectiveness, he may well go down in history as the greatest U.S. president of all time. This, of course, is completely contrary to what those in the political establishment actually desire."

"President Barak Obama constantly talked about change but President Trump is actually changing the direction and character of our nation. Career politicians have been running and destroying our country since the middle of the 19th century. Both Democrats and Republicans who have been entrenched in their secure political positions, full of status, privilege, wealth, and security, would rather see the country fall than to witness our elected president put any kind of dent in their status quo. At this point, the one person who stands ready to battle against the downfall of the United States is Sean Hannity."

"Hannity has had Donald Trump's back from the beginning of his run for office. Hannity, who is a proficient Mixed Martial Artist, has even come dangerously close to having to physically defend himself in the course of his defense of our president. This, of course would have likely been to the detriment of his unworthy opponent. In defense of our elected president and of our beleaguered country, Sean Hannity has called out and stood up to some of the government's most shrewd and treacherous politicians. At risk to his person and to his career, Sean Hannity stands strong and tall for righteousness and justice and at this point is winning the battle. Sean Hannity is not a man with whom to trifle. So to those who think of entering Trump Nation to cause decay, think twice because Sean Hannity is guarding the front door. May God help our country. May God be with our president. May God bless Sean Hannity."

For David Michael Palladino, 'Make America Great Again' is not just a political platform - it is instead a rallying cry. The values and ideals that America holds dear lie at the very core of everything he writes. These ideals and values are not something to strive for - they are instead the very heart and soul of what America was, and can be again.

Immigration, Terrorism, The Economy, Healthcare And Taxes - Author David Michael Palladino Offers A Vision Of America As It Was And As It Can Be Again

David Michael Palladino writes inspirational fiction. His works address important ideals and values. He utilizes engaging works of fiction to accomplish that goal.

For many people, 'Make America Great Again' is not just a slogan. It is instead a clearly defined goal. Today, America is finally in a position to make real changes, at all levels. Sadly, some of the  efforts to make those changes are being thwarted by partisan politics, the media and big government naysayers.

Illegal immigration, terrorist activity, the economy, healthcare and taxes can be found at the top of the list of things that simply must be fixed if America is to become great again. The Washington culture and the media are just two roadblocks to making those changes. The question is - why would anyone not want to change what is clearly broken? Would it not make more sense to turn our backs on political gamesmanship and special interests and get behind the effort?

For David Michael Palladino, 'Make America Great Again' is not just a political platform - it is instead a rallying cry. The values and ideals that America holds dear lie at the very core of everything he writes. These ideals and values are not something to strive for - they are instead the very heart and soul of what America was, and can be again.

Cold War Immigration, The Reagan Years And Immigration Today - David Michael Palladino's 'Quest For Freedom' Provides A Stunning Look At Immigration

David Michael Palladino writes inspirational fiction for young readers. His works teach important ideals and values. He utilizes engaging works of fiction to accomplish that goal

The subject of immigration is one of the hottest political issues today. On one side are those who want to build walls and fences, require stringent background checks and deport illegal aliens. On the other side are those who would open the doors wide. Why such a disconnect today? Who is correct?

Both sides are right.

The real question is not whether immigration is good for the country or bad for the country. The real question is the intent of the immigrant. It is a subtle point, and one that is very easy to miss.

Immigration and defection to the USA used to be about people's desire to live in freedom, escape repression, and the aspiration to improve the lives of themselves and their families. For some immigrants, that is still true today. But there are others whose only desire is to qualify for handouts or to perhaps accomplish a terrorist agenda.

“I wrote Book I, ‘Quest for Freedom’ in dedication to the great President Ronald Reagan and to those who were his children; the U.S. Special Operations personnel of 1980 through 1988," Palladino stated. "He loved us and we loved him back.

"I’ve written Book II, ‘Western Odyssey’ in dedication to all of those who, in 2016, have taken action and elected a new president who may give us, as a nation, one last surge to greatness. Here's to one more chance. May we never again take it for granted.”

Immigration, American Values And An Epic Journey To Freedom Are Detailed In David Michael Palladino's 'Quest For Freedom'

David Michael Palladino writes inspirational fiction for young readers. His works teach important ideals and values. He utilizes engaging works of fiction to accomplish that goal

'Make America Great Again' is one of the most popular campaign slogans ever created. This slogan moves us in two directions simultaneously - back to a past in which America was perceived to be the greatest country in the world, and forward into a future in which can once again BE the greatest country in the world. That slogan resonates with people who believe America is on a downward slide. The upcoming election could solidify America's becoming great again or it could solidify its downfall.

Immigration is a key issue in political campaigns everywhere. Immigration however is not really the problem - illegal immigration is the problem. Illegal immigration allows people to take advantage of the opportunity America offers without actually joining American society and participating in all that comes with it. The offenders are willing to take that risk, as the alternatives offer little chance for true freedom. The desire to immigrate to the United States is held by people everywhere because America (despite what some politicians and news media might say) continues to be and indeed still is the greatest country in the world. Yes, the USA has slipped a bit and has a few serious problems. Yet in spite of this, America continues to lead the world in freedom, in core values, and is the most important commodity of all - the opportunity for a better life.

David Michael Palladino's 'Quest For Freedom' is the engaging story of Adriana Corderu and her quest to obtain freedom by escaping the Iron Curtain.

Palladino writes inspirational fiction for young people. He teaches, through his works of fiction, important ideals and values. As a former U.S. Army Ranger, former High School Phys-Ed & Health Teacher and Coach, and founder of “Palladino Martial Arts”, he understands the significance of instilling these all-important ideals and values in young people.

For this reason it will appeal to parents, grandparents and educators and those who are old enough to remember what America used to be. Palladino deftly paints a picture of America as she really was during the Cold War. He shows us clearly why American freedom and American values held such appeal for many oppressed people in other parts of the world.

During the first Cold War the world revolved around the conflict between the theologies of communism and democracy. The two main protagonists in this conflict were the United States in the West and the Soviet Union in the East. As Eastern Bloc leaders began to tighten restrictions in the lives of their people, commensurate with their increase in power, there began to emerge, in the East, a group of young people, hard and idealistic, adventurous and courageous. These would become the heroes of the movement of their time. These were the brave young souls who, with inspiration from President Reagan, began to break down the Iron Curtain. The escape from Soviet Communism and the quest for freedom is the theme of 'Quest For Freedom'. Set in the Cold War era, the book is the engaging story of Adriana Corderu and her quest to obtain freedom by escaping the Iron Curtain.

'Quest for Freedom' has received rave reviews. One reviewer stated, "More native born Americans need to know this story and more importantly appreciate our country as she did." Another said, "The readers become engrossed immediately in Palladino's dynamic effervescent style."

The Story Of Olympic Swimmer Ardiana Corderu, Who Defected To The United States, Is Detailed In David Michael Palladino's 'Quest For Freedom'

David Michael Palladino writes inspirational fiction for young readers. His works teach important ideals and values. He utilizes engaging works of fiction to accomplish that goal

While the Leftist Politicians and the leftist US media are playing political games with the issue of immigration these days, many seem to be missing the key point. The desire to immigrate to the United States is held by people worldwide because America is the greatest country in the world. That is the point, and is ultimately the driving force behind immigration.

Immigration and defection, regardless of how they are sliced and diced, are really about people's desire to live in freedom and to escape repression. Defections during the Olympics have a long history, and include the 1948 Summer Olympics in London, the 1956 Summer Olympics in Melbourne, the 1964 Winter Olympics in Austria, the 1964 Summer Olympics in Tokyo and the 1968 Summer Olympics in Mexico City. Defections have also occurred in 1972, 1976, 1980, 1984 and 1996.

The escape from Soviet Communism and the quest for freedom is the theme of 'Quest For Freedom'. Set in the Cold War era, the book is the engaging story of Adriana Corderu and her quest to obtain freedom by escaping the Iron Curtain.

Immigration And The Desire For Freedom - 'Quest For Freedom' By David Michael Palladino Gives Us A New Perspective On Immigration

David Michael Palladino writes inspirational fiction for young readers. His works teach important ideals and values. He utilizes engaging works of fiction to accomplish that goal

The subject of immigration is one of the hottest news stories taking place in America today. Immigration is a bitterly contested issue, a divisive talking point, a topic for building political platforms and a fiery issue that divides people across every social and economic line imaginable.

So why do so many people hope to immigrate to America? Some people immigrate to escape the ravages of war or persecution or to better themselves and their families. Some hope to have the opportunity for better education, better jobs or to escape from poverty. Healthcare. The environment. Politics. Lifestyle.

While the reasons are many and varied, at the very core of the drive to immigrate is the desire for freedom. Freedom might imply "freedom from" - war, poverty or persecution. Or, freedom imply "freedom to" - grow, thrive, or to live in a specific way. Freedom - whether "from" or "to" - seems to be hardwired into human DNA.

It might be hard for some Americans to relate to this drive for freedom or perhaps to even understand it, as we have always had freedom. America is a primary destination for immigration as America sits at the very top of the list of countries known for personal freedom. America was built on the concept of personal freedom. In the current landscape however, many Americans recognize the need to be vigilant against potential immigrants who do not hold American values in esteem. But perhaps, in our need to be cautious about immigration, we have lost sight of what it is that makes America truly great. It is, in a word, freedom.

Immigration, Ronald Reagan, The Cold War And Freedom - 'Quest For Freedom' By David Michael Palladino Gives Us A New Perspective On Immigration

David Michael Palladino writes inspirational fiction for young readers. His works teach important ideals and values. He utilizes engaging works of fiction to accomplish that goal

Ronald Reagan was a shining example of American leadership, not only in the eyes of David Michael Palladino, but also to many immigrants who hoped to reach the shores of America to find freedom from oppression. He has been quoted as saying "a nation without borders is not really a nation." On the other hand some have credited Reagan with the concept that America might serve as a beacon for legal immigrants who could add to America's prosperity. Perhaps Reagan's concept of America seems a bit innocent today, when huge numbers of illegal immigrants threaten American workers and, in this age of covert terrorism, perhaps the very lives of American citizens.

Reagan was also instrumental in bringing down the Iron Curtain. The escape from Soviet Communism and the quest for freedom is the theme of 'Quest For Freedom'. Set in the Cold War era, the book is the engaging story of Adriana Corderu and her quest to obtain freedom by escaping the Iron Curtain.

Palladino writes inspirational fiction for young people. He teaches, through his works of fiction, important ideals and values. As a former U.S. Army Ranger, former High School Phys-Ed & Health Teacher and Coach, and founder of “Palladino Martial Arts”, he understands the significance of instilling these all-important ideals and values in young people. The book will appeal to parents, grandparents and educators.

Politics aside, a vast number of Americans believe that America has lost its way. The success of Donald Trump, whose political rallying call is "Make America Great Again", plays directly into this theme. It strikes a chord with a huge number of American citizens who are old enough to remember what America used to be. Palladino deftly paints a picture of America as she really was. He shows us clearly why American freedom and American values held such appeal for many oppressed people in other parts of the world.

During the first Cold War the world revolved around the conflict between the theologies of communism and democracy.
