billionaire appeared, a man whose personal fortune exceeded a billion dollars. it was the american john rockefeller teenager, john learned to make money, sold turkeys, and gave courts to his neighbors. having grown up, he successfully engaged in trading, and then in time bought up dozens of oil fields and founded the standard oil company. and by the end of the 21st century. controlled 95% of us oil production. he had many charitable projects, but throughout his life 10% he donated his income to the baptist church. and today john rockefeller remains the richest man in world history. at the time of his death, in 1937, his fortune exceeded 1.400 million dollars, in today's terms it is about 425 billion, that is, almost twice as much as... elon musk, the richest man alive. on september 29, 1938 in munich, hitler met with the leaders of england, france and italy and a text was drawn up; on the night of the thirtieth the so-called munich agreement was signed, which went down in history as the munich agreement collusion. hitler and the prime ministers of the three countries, neville chamberlin, eduardo la

he became the american john rockefeller, the son of a lumberjack, while still a teenager, john learned courts to his neighbors. having grown up, he successfully engaged in trade, and then bought dozens of oil fields and founded the standard oil company; by the end of the 21st century, rockefeller controlled 95% of oil production in the united states. he had many charitable projects, but all his life he donated 10% of his income to the baptist church. and today, john rockefeller remains the richest man in world history at the time of his death in an attempt to avoid a major war in europe. but the concessions only provoked hitler, and less than a year later , the second world war began with the nazi invasion of poland. september 29, 1941 began mass executions in babimiera, this is how the germans who captured kiev got rid of the jewish population, brought the victims to the site, forced them to undress and enter the enemy. after that, members of the so-called zondrkomda 4a killed them. subsequently, from reports sent to berlin, the total number of those killed became known. in just 2 day

this is a great example of how john de rockefeller came to control the oil industry and his control his monopoly is horizontal. so we've got five steps. john de rockefeller did not own all of the oil wells in america. okay. he didn't own all of the pipelines or the railroads that are going to transport that crude oil. but what he did own was that third process. rockefeller owned over 90% of the oil refineries in america. so if you were taking crude oil out of the ground, you hit a gusher down in west texas. you're going to have to go to a standard oil refinery for it to be processed into usable, sellable product. he owns. over 90% of that horizontal to level the refineries in america, which means then you have to do business with him. and he would say, here's what the price is going to be. and you say, well, no, that's that's too high. good luck finding another refinery. oh, wait a minute. i own over 90% of them. you're going to have to business with me, which means i can set the price as high as i want because i have no competition. rockefeller doesn't own the oil. excuse me? the railr

rock, john d rockefeller, and the biggest oil magnate of our time. they found that any level of radiation is harmful to the human body. as it was in the 1956, that report was released front page new york times. not a big publisher of the new york times was of course on the board of the roger feller foundation. so, you know, you see the connections at a high level. and once they put that news out, you know, to advertise, and it was just the front page story radiation men became even more scary to more people because we have the world war 2 experience. and here she minutes. where indeed it was a dangerous level of radiation because it was an enrich mom. we were dropping bombs with rich plutonium uranium. so people were dying from radiation boys, no question. but this is a different kind of radiation as low level as back what they called background really, really ation. and that is what people have is terrified because of all the fuse stoked by the rockefeller foundation and the environmentalist. and i think you go into it's in such detail and people ca

john d. rockefeller, (dramatic music) has dedicated his life to a single purpose: philanthropy.

he read ida tarbell series in mcclure's on john de rockefeller, and he went hard after standard oil and the trusts. so he embraced the culture and used it to advance his political ends. other examples of using culture wisely are eisenhower. the song i like ike was actually written by irving berlin and the disney company produced a commercial for eisenhower. and then you also think of bill clinton in the 1992 campaign. he's kind of an unknown. he's young. he's the pictures of him as a hippie. but he goes on the on the arsenio hall show. right. and he plays the saxophone wearing sunglasses to kind of show that he's hip and cool. but he also has that song, the fleetwood mac song that makes him kind of approachable and safe from the perspective of the baby boomers. so i think those people are examples of people who used it well. one person who i don't think took good advantage of culture at all was jimmy carter. jimmy carter watched. 480 movies while he was president. that's 120 a year. he only had one term. so 2 to 3 movies a week. while he's serving the president in a very difficult time

senator church was briefed by fritz schwarz, joined hands with john for a visit to nelson rockefellerand fritz schwarz as the chief counsel was there. but again, to send a very important signal to the ford administration not only was tower there as a conservative republican vice chair, but kurt's mother, the republican counsel, was also there. i was there? but when the door closed for the meeting, i was on the outside it in the anteroom. okay. what happened as a result, in short, was that. within about three weeks we got note saying, okay will be five boxes of document, that we will let you look at. they will be in the situation room at the white house in the west wing, subterranean, windowless, famous space. and somebody can come over and see if there are a few things you might need, because in the attitude was you don't to worry because you just tell us what you want to know and then we'll tell you the answers the way we'd like to. so, so fritz wirtz asked me at a very tender age, go over to the white house situation room to look at the five boxes. there was a large guard there stan

john mclachlan. and a variety of interrogators, lawyers, medical personnel, senior counterterrorism analysts and managers of the detention and interrogation program. place to start about how we got into this, and i'm delighted that senator rockefeller is on the floor, is a little more than eight years ago in september, on september 6th, 2006, when the committee met to be briefed by then-director michael haden. at that 2006 meeting, the full committee learned for the first time, for the first time, of the of so-called enhanced interrogation techniques, or eits. it was a short meeting in part because president bush was making a public speech later that day disclosing officially for the first time the existence of cia black sites and announcing the transfer of 4 detainees -- 14 detainees from ciaa custody to guantanamo bay, cuba. it was the first time the interrogation program was explained to the full committee as a details had previously been limited to the chairman and vice chairman. then, on december 7th, 2007, the new york times reported that cia personnel in 2005 had destroyed videotapes of the interrogation of two cia detainees. the cia's first detainee, abu sa bide da, as well as rahimal as what herly. the committee had not be
