GARLAND NIXON—In this extensive discussion, Garland Nixon and historian Harley Schlanger analyze the enduring influence and malevolence of the British Empire through the lens of Tony Blair’s political career and the broader neoliberal agenda. They challenge the mainstream narrative around Blair’s role in the Iraq War, revealing Blair as a committed neoliberal and neoconservative who continued Margaret Thatcher’s policies of privatization, austerity, and militarism.
The conversation exposes Blair’s deep ties to powerful financial and tech interests, notably Larry Ellison of Oracle, who has heavily funded Blair’s institute promoting artificial intelligence (AI) integration into military and surveillance operations. This network, intertwined with Epstein’s infamous circle, manipulates global politics, technology, and intelligence for imperialist control.
