In the shadows of the FBI's investigation into Russia's possible secret convert involvement in hacking into the United State's "democratic process," terrorist attacks in London, and Donald Trump's refusal to sign and endorse the controversial Paris climate agreement, Zbigniew Brzezinski, counselor and trustee at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, professor of American foreign policy at the School of Advanced International Studies at Johns Hopkins University, and most famously National Security Adviser under US President Jimmy Carter passed away on Friday May 26th in a Falls Church, Virginia Hospital.
He was 89.
Brzezinski, though hardly a household name, enjoyed an influence over international politics that few intellectuals outside elected office can hope to attain. In addition to his numerous academic treatises, and the role he played in the Carter administration, he was active in the secretive and influential Council on Foreign Relations and the Bilderberg Group.
Additionally, he co-founded the Trilateral Commission with David Rockefeller.
His daughter Mika Brzezinski is the host of Morning Joe on MSNBC.
