It is all coming together nicely. With Lt General Keith Kellogg special envoy to Ukraine and Russia, and with the appointment of Steven C. Witkoff to be Special Envoy to the Middle East, President Trump has essentially created a construct that works around the insufferable issues with a globalist State Department.
Senator Marco Rubio was nominated for Secretary of State, thereby removing him from the Senate Intelligence Committee and leadership role in Gang of Eight intel; but Trump simultaneously put in guardrails against the neocon tendencies of the Florida Senator and junior McCain.
Rubio doesn’t have Ukraine/Russia in his portfolio, nor does he have diplomatic or policy control over the Middle East. President Trump has neutered the State Department, and the cherry on the proverbial cake is what he just announced.

Yes, President Trump has just confirmed that Ric Grenell will be the “Emissary” we have discussed. Great job Mr President (for all the obvious reasons).
With Nunes leading a private intel advisory committee and with Grenell being the most powerful, agile and flexible person to run strategic foreign policy operations, the tentacle influence of the Deep State is removed from the Oval Office. Now the official cabinet team can start pouring sunlight into the silos.
Without a doubt in my mind, the “emissary” is the most important person President Trump will select.
The Washington DC Intelligence Community (IC) actively work to isolate the office of the president. This is an almost impossible dynamic to avoid, caused by an entrenched and ideological adversary who has dug themselves deep into the apparatus of government.
The “emissary” is the person who carries the word of President Trump to any person identified by President Trump. The emissary is very much like a tape recording of President Trump in human form. The emissary travels to a location, meets a particular person or group, and then recites the opinion of the President. The words spoken by the emissary, are the words of President Trump.
The IC cannot inject themselves into this dynamic; that is why it is so valuable.
The emissary then hears the response from the intended person or group, repeats it back to them to ensure he/she will return with clarity of intent as expressed, and then returns to the office of the presidency and repeats the reply for the President. The emissary recites back exactly what he was /is told.
This process is critical when you understand how thoroughly compromised the full Executive Branch is. More importantly, this process becomes even more critical when you accept the Intelligence Community will lie to the office of the President to retain their position.
Read this next sentence slowly…. If the Senate confirms a director of an IC silo, then that director is demonstrably going to lie to the office of the President.
The Senate only confirms Intelligence Community leadership who are willing to LIE to THE PRESIDENT. This is just a factual reality.
If the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI) confirms them, they will lie. That is the main role of the SSCI.
The people who constructed the Silos then metastasized the control rot within them, use the term “continuity of government,” to describe the true role and responsibility of the system. This is not factually wrong.
Where people go wrong is misunderstanding what the “continuity” is that is being maintained. Truly, the continuity of government is the priority. However, it’s the continuity of currently corrupt and immoral government we are now maintaining.
The CIA Director will lie to President Trump (they did, remember), the information that comes from within the CIA institution is political and false.
The FBI Leadership will lie to President Trump (they did, remember), the information that comes from within the FBI institution is political and false.
The AG will lie, same problem.
The DNI will lie, same problem.
The NSA will lie, and all the deputies therein will lie, same problem, same problem, same problem.
Washington DC puts it this way, you probably heard Bill Barr talking about ad-infinitum. The IC leadership is responsible for maintaining the “continuity of government” at all costs. The government is more important than The President.
If the continuity of government is maintained by lying to the office of the President, then so be it. Or, as James Comey said when justifying his lies to the President and his manipulation on March 20th, 2017: “because of the sensitivity of the matter.”
You can get as angry as you want about this, it’s just the DC system that exists. We must deal with what exists, not what we would pretend there to be.
If a candidate for an IC position is not willing to lie to the President, that is to believe the lies that come from within the silo they are in charge of, then the Senate will not confirm him/her. This is why President Trump needs an emissary.
The role of the emissary is critical, the qualifications for that role are extremely important.
Remember, this person is speaking on behalf of President Trump. And representing the responding voice with a similar level of clarity.
The emissary must be of incredible moral character. They must be honest. The person should be entirely altruistic. They must have exceptional judgement, possess no ego, be impervious to scrutiny or review. They must maintain themselves at the highest moral standards at all times and exhibit incredible judgement and wisdom.
Due to the nature of the position the emissary is extremely powerful; therefore, a disposition of humility is also critical. The President must be able to trust this person without reservation or issue. At the same time, the entire weight of the U.S. Intelligence Community apparatus will seek to compromise the emissary, as they try to put walls around the President who holds silo-busting power.
Honesty, integrity, humility, trustworthiness, unimpeachable character and exceptional judgement, establish the baseline of traits the emissary must possess.
This is a choice that will be deeply important to President Trump. Fortunately, it is not a position that requires any confirmation or external approval. Judgement, discernment, wisdom and silence are the strength characteristics.
Excellent choice!

The Special Emissary does not need Senate approval.
The enemy are so lucky Trump is not the way they pretend he is, or he would at this point simply say, “I am the Senate.”
So if Ratliffe and Patel are approved as CIA and FBI Directors, they can be expected to lie to DJT?
I don’t think so. They already have Trump’s trust. DC didn’t make them who they are. I waiting to see who will be appointed as Ratcliffe’s Assistant or Deputy in the CIA. That’s the seat that also needs to have the Trust of Trump. That position is pretty strong too.
“The CIA Director will lie to President Trump (they did, remember), the information that comes from within the CIA institution is political and false.”
‘The FBI Leadership will lie to President Trump (they did, remember), the information that comes from within the FBI institution is political and false.”
Okay, but SD wrote this while knowing who DJTs nominees were, unless he doesn’t believe they will be approved
So, I can safely say that there will never be an Eagle Scout that will be a politician? The first Law of Scouting is Trustworthy! Liars are never Trustworthy! No wonder this country is all “effed” up!
Remember leftists, their Communists, Fascists, and wholly owned Democrats share a common trait. They redefine the English vocabulary to shape a specific world view. For example, most non-leftists totally misunderstand the concept of “racism”, in terms of how the left uses the word as a pejorative label against their enemies. Black men can be racist, too. How so? Well, a “racists” has been redefined as “anti-Communist”. “ANTIFA” means anti-fascist, i.e. the label that the Berlin, Stalinist aligned Communists used in describing “National Socialism” (i.e. Hitler’s “NAZI” party). The NAZI’s were nationalists, but Germany was essentially a socialist country from about the 1880’s. In that fight between the Berlin Nazi’s and Communists, there were NO capitalists involved. ALL of German were socialists, so the fight was about what kind of socialists ruled Germany.
In the same way, the leftists and their Democrats call us racists, which is true by their definition, which of course is at base, a lie. Their entire world view, is about “the socialist lie”. This country has been overrun by the Communist left since the dawn of the “Progressive” movement in the early 1900’s. This problem (the corruption of the American, Constitutional republic) ain’t your problem. It’s your daddy’s, or grand-daddy’s, maybe even great grandaddy’s depending on your age. Our tolerant country has tolerated the authoritative socialists for so long, that now the entire US Government, the education establishment, and most corporations and major institutions, have internalized socialism into their ethos. That’s the reason this country is so “effed up”.
To juxtapose the quote from Horowitz, when he quoted Bill Ayers, as they were leftist student activists discussion some issue or cause: “The issue is NEVER the issue. The issue is the revolution!” Trustworthy? Liars? No, the dedicated ones are faithful to their cause. Their cause just isn’t consistent with the law, the US Constitution, their oaths of office (where relevant), or anything that we as Americans, hold dear.
Lol, even “Eagle Scouts” aren’t what they were back when I grew up in Scouting (Boy Scout, Sea Scout, didn’t quite make Eagle ’cause I “cross decked” to the seaward side, 😉 and oh.. oh, yeah, and because I discovered girls.)
Very good analysis sir.
Not currently. Glad to see you continue to take the Scout Oath and Law seriously, as do I. Many of us are still out here, quietly going about our lives, doing our best to live those ideals.
I don’t think so but the info comes to them from the rot in the silo. I believe Grenell & Nunes will help validate the info.
No, but the employees of their own agencies will lie to both Rat-c-liffe and Patel, who will be seen as outsiders within the institutions they theoretically control. It’s not as simple as Ratcliffe/Patel firing the obstructionists, those unfaithful to their oaths, placing partisan political loyalty over that of their loyalty to the flag. The entire institutions, as @Sundance says, are siloed, i.e. silos within silos. They may not overtly lie, but they can conceal facts and chance emphasis to alter the CIA & FBI Director’s opinions that the President sees. The lies may be very subtle, but a lot of false garbage could hit the President’s desk before the directors identify and intercept it.
I fully expect multiple firings within the IC, throughout the Trump Administration. I don’t think Trump, or his loyal cabinet members will put up with the IC’s crap, but crap will still flow. After all, those in the IC think that they’re superior, smarter, just way more .. of everything, than any average American, dumb GOP President, or his “political” appointees.
This function has been reserved for about 6 RINO senators and the DNC and of course the federal work force aka the blob.

2018: Their new mission? Foil Trump. Ex-intelligence officials run for Congress as Democrats

The Kamala campaign is planning to harvest Jimmy Carter’s ballot today at the hospice facility where he’s being kept.
Yes Carter who ran the Teheran rescue mission and was the ideal of the 70s radicals. What a star. Now replaced as an icon of cretinism by Brandon and Obama.
Carter appointed Adm. Stansfield Turner as DCI.
Turner didn’t believe that human intelligence was useful. He believed that technical intelligence–satellite photography, signals intelligence, etc–was more useful.
In keeping with those beliefs, Turner cut 800 officers from the human intelligence gathering arm of the CIA.
Turner also brought in Naval officers as managers in various offices of the CIA.
Great observation. Never underestimate the power of interagency rivalry as a variable in the equation. I have often contemplated Naval Intelligence as the forefather in some ways of the modern monster, and always consider they want the flag back.
As I was reading Sundance’s description of the Emissary, & first time he posted what an Emissary would be doing I didn’t think of this. Relaying information verbatim to & from Trump will be extremely important & invaluable!
I thought of the mentats & their amazing abilities, ie memory, processing, etc in the world of “Dune”.
Both Trump and Grenell are smart enough to qualify for that.
As for continuity of governmnent, see White Collar, C. Wright Mills, Oxford University Press, New York, 1951, is an excellent analysis of bureaucratic structures, how they came to be and the inertia they contain. Highly recommended.
So President Trump is essentially setting up his own Intel/communications system, to bypass the Deep State lie machine.
Good.
I trust Ric Grennell. And, obviously, so does DJT
why isn’t the focus on eliminating and/or compressing many of the 22 IC agencies into a few agencies? There is ongoing acceptance that the corrupt, degenerate peeps inside these agencies will always lie to the president. Then instead of accepting this as “fact,” permanent change and not acceptance should become the priority .
Here…here!!! The bloat is causing the National Security of this Nation to decline rapidly!!! Trust me…I know!!
If I were them. I’d rather not say what is about to happen. No sense giving the bastards time to make up excuses.

And Trump labels him the Special Emissary. Somebody is reading CTH! Bravo!
Actually Trump labeled him the Presidential Envoy for Special Missions. Emissary is Sundance’s label. But it sure does seem like Trump got the idea from Sundance. Someone close to Trump must read CTH.
BRAVO! While some of President Trump’s choices do seem to be marginal, I can see the strength and the strategies. So much better than the start of his first term.

continuity of bureaucracy is what they really mean. the unelected ruling the selected. the political-media-bureaucratic class which is the real oligarchy and an incestuous nest of perverts, foreigners and self enriching self entitled boomers. The next generation of this scumbag outfit are exceptionally similar to their boomer forebears unfortunately which means most likely if success is to be had it will only be after an old fashioned Declaration of Independence style Second American Revolution and a bracing round of trials and executions.
Far too many of them will survive but no victory is permanent. That’s life.

For any Senate swamp rat/intelligence cabal toady/deep state stooge that complains about Ric Grennel as the special emissary, I have one name for you: Harry Hopkins.
100%. He seems to be trustworthy and flies below the media radar. Hope Grinnell + Kellogg don’t discourage Rubio, who’s been extremely quiet since his appointment.
State has not function in the interest of the American people in decades. It is useless as an instrument of foreign policy. It does not promote the interests of the American people so much as its own interests. Why does America need embassies in every two bit nation in the world. Most Americans can not tell you where Mali is nor care. We have no interests there, nor in Upper Volta, Somalia, Mongolia, Guyana, New Guinea, Yemen, etc. State needs to be cut in half and its personnel and offices completely reformed. I wouldn’t trust them to negotiate a snow treaty for the North pole.
So Rick G does most of the heavy lifting in terms of direct communication to foreign leadership and DOGE is chopping away some of the largest limbs of State (and other Depts).
This could be fun!
