Trump picks Colorado Springs author of Illuminati books for education board

A Colorado Springs lawyer appointed by President Donald Trump to a federal education board is a prolific author of self-help Illuminati books whose education company has been accused of handing out certificates to undeserving applicants.

The White House announced last week that Trump had nominated George Mentz to the Commission on Presidential Scholars. His nomination does not require Senate confirmation.

Mentz’s books include “The Illuminati Secret Laws of Money,” “The Illuminati Handbook,” “50 Laws of Power of the Illuminati,” and “100 Secrets and Habits of the Illuminati for Life Success.” Nearly all of his works are about money and often center on mindfulness secrets to achieving wealth.

talked about Robert LeFevre's Freedom School in Colorado Springs. He got a ton of Charles Koch backing, was close to the birchers, he formed his school in '57. (Pp. 43-45, hardbound).

Called himself an autarchist (ancap), claimed to have supernational powers, death threatened FDR and Eleanor Roosevelt, escaped prosecution by turning state's evidence, had a big FBI file for his unusual actions and statements, went bankrupt, hated the US gov, was infatuated with a 14 year old girl, was an informant for Joe McCarthy, called the Girl Scouts 'reds'. Employed (as the only other Freedom School teacher) Holocaust denier James J. Martin as a professor of history, Martin had worked for the Institute for Historic Review. LeFevre also hosted 'great thinkers' Von Mises and Hayek in the '60's.

So, nazi, cultist, pedo.
