Chapter 490: Chapter 257: The Dilemma David Faces_3
“`
And if he didn’t take action, he would gradually lose his political achievents as capital.
Just like Donald told him today, Freemasonry had already decided not to allow him into the headquarters; thus, his only option was to accumulate political achievents in order to carve out a space for promotion.
The more David thought about it, the bigger headache he felt.
He was becoming more aware that politics was truly not sothing ordinary people could engage in.
Especially for soone like him, with no background or foundation, if he wanted to climb up, he would have to carve a bloody path through various powerful families and factions.
Behind him was a precipice—a misstep or a sche by others would lead to his shattering demise without recovery!
“Director David, I’ll just say it straight, this is how the internal environnt of Arica is. The more you want to climb up, the more you have to compete with others’ interests, and this is sothing no one can change. If you want to succeed, the right timing, geographical and human conditions are all indispensable. Of course, I think what you need most now is a political ally to protect and promote you, and our family is definitely the best choice for you!”
What Selina really wanted to say was that theirs was David’s only choice.
The reason was simple; Jewish people always adhered to the principle that those who were not part of their community could not be trusted. Those who did not share their bloodline were not easily accepted.
In other words, even if David begged to be taken in, it was very likely that he would not be accepted.
Although the Ansa Group did not care so much about bloodline, they valued faith and social lifestyle. Since David had Asian heritage, his faith and social customs were obviously different, making it unlikely for him to be accepted by this group.
Not to ntion the Illuminati and the major families.
So apart from the Kennedy Family, which had deep-seated hatred with the Freemasonry Group, did David have any other choices?
“If I may ask, how much influence does your family currently have in the Congress?”
The Congress, as the legislative body of Arica, served as an anchor of stability.
Theoretically, if one faction could control the Congress, they could almost do whatever they wanted in Arica.
Forget about being the head of the national tax agency or the chief advisor; if they had complete control over Congress, they could even depose the president.
Of course, with over 500 mbers in both houses of Congress, it essentially ant that no single faction could fully control it.
And now, David just wanted to subtly probe and see if the Kennedy Family still had any influence in Congress.
If they no longer had influence, then forming an alliance with them would be aningless, and might even bring about the issue of Freemasonry trying to destroy them decisively.
“Our family still holds so influence in Congress. For example, like the incident where Phipps criticized the black tax bill, if you let our family intervene and keep the other two mbers out, we’re confident we could make it happen.”
Although Selina did not spell it out directly, David could infer from her words that the Kennedy Family did have certain influence in Congress.
However, David soon seed to think of sothing else and narrowed his eyes as he asked, “The midterm elections are in November, and Congress will surely undergo a major reshuffle. Will your family… still be able to maintain its influence there?”
Selina’s gaze dimd slightly; over the years, Freemasonry had been steadily eroding their family’s power.
And their family’s influence in Congress was also in decline.
Unless sothing unexpected happened, during the upcoming midterm elections, under the onslaught of Freemasonry, their family’s influence in Congress was certain to diminish further.
Collecting her thoughts, she replied, “Don’t worry, our family has stood strong in Arica for so many years, with connections in both political and business circles. Forming an alliance with us would definitely be more beneficial than detrintal to you right now.”
David supported his cheek with his hand and, after pondering for a mont, responded, “Let think about it.”
“Of course, but you must make a decision soon, Director David. After all, Brown Soros and Bellamy Hardy have entered the headquarters. Plus, under the influence of Freemasonry, it’s uncertain whether they will beco significant forces. If that happens, your position, far from the power center, will be at risk.”
Having said her piece, Selina tactfully stood and left, leaving David lost in thought.
At that mont, David was indeed troubled.
On one hand, Donald’s words today made him realize that Freemasonry had taken notice of him and were even targeting him.
On the other hand, Selina’s words implied that if he couldn’t continue maintaining high tax revenues, his career might stop right here in Los Angeles.
The situation was such that he could neither advance nor retreat!
After a long thought without clarity, he took out his phone and dialed Nisen’s number.
“What’s up, BOSS?”
As soon as the call connected, Nisen’s voice ca through.
“Do you have ti now to co over and chat at my place?”
So things are clearer to those on the outside rather than those involved, so he wanted to share his situation with Nisen and hear if he might receive so useful advice.
“I’ll be right there.”
Given the ti, Nisen knew his boss must be encountering so trouble to ask for a chat, so he quickly got dressed and left the house.
Nisen had also moved from Nevada State for the convenience of David’s dispatch, so upon arrival, he had taken residence in the sa building.
