 Episode notes 
Financial Origins Of The Deep State
- Mel K argues the deep state evolved from pre-WWII finance networks and solidified via postwar institutions like the Bank for International Settlements.
- She links global NGOs, immunities, and public-private partnerships to a transnational cartel that supersedes nation-states.
Corporate Continuity From WWII To Today
- Mel K traces corporate links like Standard Oil and IG Farben to wartime collusion and postwar continuity of influence.
- She argues many industrial players continued power through ratlines, shell companies and integration into global finance.
Postwar Immunities Built Global Control
- Mel K says Dulles-era networks and postwar institutions built an opaque global infrastructure protected by immunities from 1945 onward.
- That system centralized control through institutions like the BIS, IMF, World Bank and UN, undermining national sovereignty.
