War With Iran, The Foundation For Defense of Democracies & Trump's Neocons w/ Eli Clifton

Eli Clifton is an investigative journalist and writer who has had articles appear in the Nation, the Intercept and most prolifically in Lobelog, he has been tracking the activities of far-right policy wonks and neoconservatives in the Washington DC orbit for over a decade and more specifically has spent a lot of time exposing the activities of the Iran regime change centric think tank known as the Foundation for Defense of Democracies.

"When Trump’s national security adviser, John Bolton, hired Foundation for Defense of Democracy senior adviser Richard Goldberg as his assistant in January 2019, the perception of FDD’s heavy influence was confirmed” https://rightweb.irc-online.org/profile/foundation_for_defense_of_democracies/
