How to use concoct in a sentence?

1. Tim Donnelly:

   Think about that, but we will never hear that from Ayatollah Obama because that's what he really is, he is, in whatever way, I don't know what his connection to the Muslim Brotherhood is, but he's got them in all kinds of positions of power, other smarter people than me have have laid out the case and shown who these people are. I'm just seeing the result. You're seeing the results. You've been asking yourself, 'Why is it that he won't actually call Islamic jihadism, Islamic jihadism? Why is it that he's so passionate about taking away your guns, taking away your First Amendment, your right to speak the truth about this great evil?' But that's because it works. That's because it's part of a plan. That's because the left has always been more organized. They've had playbooks because they have people that get paid in the ivory towers to concoct these plans.

That has been the case for refugees, that will be the case for economic integration, possibly for cooperation on counter-terrorism, and areas like that.
