By Will Griffin

From The Peace Report

The top 5 weapons manufacturers in the US, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Boeing, General Dynamics and Raytheon, gave away over $60 million towards political contributions in 2020, essentially bribing political candidates and political parties towards their interests.

A former board member of Raytheon, and retired US Army four star general, Lloyd Austin, was recently appointed as the Secretary of 'Defense'.

The revolving door between the Pentagon, the War Industry, and Congress continue to dominate politics in the US.

Watch the latest video I made for the Global Network which focuses on this issue as well as show some history of the Global Network opposing Raytheon's operations and shining light on a recent and important campaign in Asheville, NC has been created called Reject Raytheon, where a new Raytheon facility is being constructed to build F-35 jet engines.

Here are some sources which the video is based on:
