{Bumped by Request}
For two years I was asked to present thoughts on potential candidates for offices in/around the Trump administration if they can achieve victory in the 2024 election. Essentially, if Trump wins, “who” would be best in “what” positions?
I was extremely reluctant to put something together like this because ultimately, I look at the challenges with a different perspective. Additionally, I am not confident that key people around Donald Trump fully understand the complexity of the problem, and as a result would not absorb the context of any suggestions I might offer.
However, having spent the past 18 months traveling, quietly tracking (yes, that’s me), methodically researching, looking, listening, digging deep in the places that few understand or pay attention to, and after careful thought, prayer and reflection, I began to think that perhaps a slight change in the presentation might actually be beneficial.
Thus, I began in July of 2024, writing very specifically about who might be best suited for roles and responsibilities. Not from the perspective of the person per se’, but rather from the perspective of a fully understandable context for the position; the reality of what can be pragmatically accomplished, and detailed reasoning for why the challenge they will face exists.
This is a beginning with the end in mind approach.
It is NOT my intent to provide a private list of recommendations. What I wanted to do was set a cornerstone of how each role could, predictably, be anticipated to engage with each challenge; then, ultimately, what I believe they will have to do in order to make progress.
The result was a public series of non-pretending presentations, where all of the traditional civic perspectives that people carried might be challenged.
Roles and responsibilities are only valuable if we define and accept the problem from the same perspective. It is with that thought in mind that such an undertaking begins.
If successful in the 2024 election, President Trump will have one 4-year term to begin charting a new course within our government.
President Trump cannot be expected to fix or repair all of the damage created within our Constitutional Republic in one term. However, it is possible for President Trump to set the cornerstones in place that ensure the greatest likelihood of success for a modern restoration.
What we are facing is like the Eye of Sauron in the Hobbit trilogy. I am not going to repeat the background context for how the current landscape was created. That is available HERE, within the discussion of the Fourth Branch of Government. Under the CTH category filing system in the right-hand margin, you will now find a sub-category “2025 – Term 2” under the primary category “President Trump.” All of these articles are there, as published.
The current staffing challenge is about removing the cancerous cells that have been seeded deep within the institutions.
The Intelligence Community created the disease, then used the politicians to sell the cure.
In the era shortly after 9/11, the DC national security apparatus was constructed to preserve continuity of government and simultaneously view all Americans as potential threats. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) were created specifically for this purpose. Then things went sideways… (more)
The challenge is obviously multifaceted with three infected systems, branches, attacking both domestic and foreign policy against the interests of the American people.
President Trump can address the Executive Branch directly; all other aspects are ancillary to the executive policy. The Legislative Branch fix is then dependent on We The People, and the Judicial Branch fix is an outcome of both.
Within the staffing question, we must begin with a common understanding. Domestically we have authorities created by the Patriot Act, ODNI and DHS to contend with. Externally we have the State Dept and CIA collaboration that also feeds into the larger operational missions of the Intelligence Community. It is this IC that now dominates all issues of consequence, and it is from this perspective we must first address any restoration context.
♦ Executive Policy – Domestic Consequences. There are five or six key positions, most of them holding deputy positions in support. Again, this is from my own boots on ground review, real-time research shared, understandings discovered, and earnest challenges identified.
Within the executive branch, directly connected to the office of the presidency, the six primary domestic IC-centric positions of consequence are:
President Trump Emissary – no confirmation needed.
President Trump National Security Advisor – no confirmation needed.
White House Counsel – no confirmation needed.
Director of the Office of National Intelligence (DNI).
Director of the National Security Agency (NSA).
Secretary of the Dept of Homeland Security (DHS)
And then come the Secretary of State (DoS), and the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). These two are combined because they operate collaboratively as one larger silo with two divisions.
Like a restaurant with a front dining room (State Dept.) and a back kitchen (CIA). The front is visible, the back is not visible. The front cannot function without the back, and the back is dependent on the front for business pretenses. The front is the head, the back is the neck. I am pulling DoS and CIA out of the domestic aspect, along with the Defense Dept (DoD) for a reason that will be identified later.
Overall, each of these BIG silos operates what we call the “National Security” system. They have smaller silos within them, but generally for the intents of the first few positions, these are the critical parts. Emissary, NSA, White House Counsel, ODNI and NSA.
Already, you are probably saying, “wait, what is this emissary thing?” Good. That’s part of the dropping civics non-pretense.
President Trump had before, and will even more critically need again, an exceptional emissary who can convey his thoughts, words and intents to other people – unincumbered by the system itself.
Without the emissary, the embeds within the current national security system will build walls to keep the office of the president isolated.
Those who retain the silo process as an institutional construct to control events, must be confronted by using a process within a system they cannot control. The President must be able to reach out from his office without going through the national security matrix. That’s the importance of the emissary.
By now, everyone should understand the Trump Doctrine: “Economic Security is National Security.” Every successful outcome that benefits Americans comes from the expressed policy of using economics as a tool and a weapon to achieve security, domestically and abroad.
I am going to begin with a discussion of the “Emissary.” Their role, their responsibilities, the challenges they face, the personal characteristics and traits needed, how they interact within the system and a full understanding of exactly how critical this person is for the voice of the office of the president.
Two Big Picture Contextual Articles:
Understand The Fourth Branch
Understand The Trump Doctrine
Next, we begin the specifics. Who should be the emissary?
♦ The Emissary – 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 this position 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 FBI Leadership will lie to President Trump (they did, remember). The AG will lie, the DNI will lie, the NSA will lie, and all the deputies therein will lie.
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, 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.
From my perspective, I can think of only one qualified candidate, Dr Ben Carson. Quite simply, there’s no one else who carries the level of trust necessary to engage in the role. However, I could be wrong – I do not know the sum total of the people in the life of President Donald J Trump.
For the next position/person a little-known secret needs to be understood, perhaps revealed.
Within the global intelligence apparatus there is only one nation with tentacles that compare to the Israeli intel operation. The Mossad was created in both mission and specific operational purpose over many decades. They only have one rival, one quiet and almost unknown national intelligence apparatus that is practically more comprehensive than even the 5-eyes system. That nation is Portugal.
The National Security Advisor to the President is another of the key roles within the White House that is critical to defend against the weaponized Intelligence Community. In a second term as president, we anticipate Donald Trump will again face opposition from both parties in congress and from every created silo operation in the administrative deep state.
Accepting in advance that any appointees to the Executive Branch agencies in charge of the Intelligence System, are not going to be able to change the outcomes from within those agencies, then strategizing how to confront the rogue intelligence state becomes a more honest exercise.
The National Security Advisor is going to have to navigate an intelligence community that is fully weaponized and adverse to the interests of the White House. Every element of the IC, the “six ways to Sunday” team, will work actively and behind the scenes to undermine the office of the President. Any attack vectors will be fully exploited, by the IC and nothing should be considered out of bounds.
The leaders of the CIA, FBI, DIA, DHS and NSA will all lie to the President. That’s what these institutions do now. They are part of the 4th branch of government, and they consider themselves omnipotent due to the structure of the legislative changes and oversight after 9-11. Notice I left out the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, ODNI, I did that on purpose.
The NatSec Advisor to President Trump is going to have to work through an entirely weaponized fourth branch of government in order to survive it, let alone destroy it. As a consequence, the Nat Sec Advisor needs to be a person with deep understanding of how the intelligence system inside Washington DC works, as well as carrying a profound distrust for them.
Any person who trusts any product created by the IC should be immediately disqualified from any position in our constitutional government. Additionally, any person who intentionally maintains the system of pretending (Robert Mueller was honorable etc.), is automatically disqualified.
The National Security Advisor does not need to be confirmed. The NSA person is unilaterally picked by President Trump, and the entire executive branch was just reminded by SCOTUS that POTUS is in charge of everything. This should be a big arrow in the quiver of the NatSecAdvisor.
The National Security Advisor is also the chair of the National Security Council (NSC). The NSC is the working group in the White House specifically tasked with formulating analysis on events from their skills on specific issues. The National Security Advisor does the NSC hiring and firing. Trump needs a lot of firing assistance.
When the IC was weaponized by George W Bush and Barack Obama, the DNI fulcrum point was never used much as part of the process. The DNI sits at the center of all intelligence information and maintains the pivot on the National Security Radar that now sweeps a full circle.
Prior to the Patriot Act the national security radar swept outward from the border looking at national security threats overseas. Back and forth, back and forth, the radar swept looking for foreign adversaries who might target the USA. The Patriot Act put a ball joint on the radar that now conducts surveillance sweeps in a circle, including over all Americans.
The Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) was created to be the depository for all intelligence products. Intelligence assembled on foreign threats (CIA) can be reviewed by domestic handlers (FBI and DHS). When Bush created the office and later when Obama weaponized the office, they installed people who would just go along with whatever the FBI side and CIA side told them to do. The ODNI was created to be the stupid pivot man.
However, looking at the system in totality, it is my belief that if a really smart person was in the ODNI position, they could control a great deal and even impede the activity happening both domestically (FBI/DOJ) and abroad (DoS/CIA). I believe the DNI can crush the system, if the person really looked carefully at their power in the pivot location.
The DNI can control information. The DNI can starve the beast.
Just like the State Dept and CIA work hand in glove to make a mess of the world, so too can the Nat Sec Advisor and DNI work together to deconstruct the domestic intelligence system. In this process, information is the key. The DNI can control the information, making it harder for the IC Silos to lie to the National Security Advisor.
[NOTE: control of information is also why the Director of the National Security Agency is also important. The Director of the NSA is essentially the librarian for all data. The librarian can control who enters the library if the right people in the Executive Branch (POTUS, Nat Sec Advisor and ODNI) give the Director of the NSA that power (executive action). More on that later.]
The National Security Advisor (hereafter *NSA) needs to be a person who has a comprehensive understanding of the Silos, and a willingness/desire to take them apart.
The *NSA needs to be exceptionally smart, profoundly insightful, intensely strategic, and with a comprehensive knowledge of the DC system. The *NSA also needs to be stable from attack by the IC defense system. The ideal *NSA will have an income from outside government that cannot be impacted by the schemes of the IC. The *NSA also needs to be very stable, grounded, logical and thoughtful.
This set of character traits, in combination with the knowledge needed, disqualifies almost everyone in DC. Steve Bannon is a chatterbox who doesn’t know when to keep his mouth shut, and he has a massive ego. Kash Patel is not strategic enough and maintains the pretending game in order to present himself as a man of value. Peter Navarro is loyal but has some of those key judgement issues that can be exploited by the IC, and he’s not very smart.
Former Nat Sec Advisor Michael Flynn disqualified himself from further consideration by poor judgement. Don’t forget, Flynn was an agent for a foreign government (Turkey 2016) and never told candidate Trump, thereby setting the Trump administration up for compromise. Flynn then claims he didn’t see the risk of an FBI interview in his office and never told the White House Counsel of his intent to be interviewed by the FBI. You cannot claim Flynn is smart and reconcile that with his stupidity.
Lastly, Mike Flynn is a deeply connected friend and associate to General Stanley McChrystal. I will say no more.
All of the previous names might be good additions to the National Security Council, but no way should any of those names get close to a position where their failure to deliver can cause damage to the larger goal.
As a result, there is a very small field of candidates, very small, who might be able to pull off the role of National Security Advisor. At the top of that list is probably Devin Nunes. I qualify with a “probably” because Nunes has one massive Achilles heel in my opinion.
Devin Nunes believes in the intelligence system. He believes in the FISC and FISA (702). Nunes believes in large aspects of the surveillance state, and he believes in the roles and responsibilities within government as it pertains to the Intelligence Community.
Nunes believes the system is good, and it is just being operated by bad people. This is where Mr Nunes and I diverge. However, I am willing to undermine my position and say that perhaps we need a person who believes in government. Maybe that’s the type of character trait that can be a good benefit. I don’t know. Maybe I’m too jaded and just want it all stripped down to nothing.
What I do know, is that Devin Nunes would never intentionally screw stuff up, and he’d never intentionally undermine President Trump. Nunes is super loyal, and he loves our country.
I don’t know if he would take the job of National Security Advisor (he would probably want CIA director). However, with a strategic partner in the DNI office, Devin Nunes could give us a solid chance.
♦ White House Cousel – There are many very important positions related to the expectations we hold for President Trump. Having spent years deep inside the actual workings of the current professional DC silos, I can tell you most of those expectations are very challenging to achieve.
In one 4-year term President Trump can set the cornerstone for a reconstruction effort that will take at least 15 years. [Reference, Team Obama used 18+ years to create it (January 2007 to present)].
My goal is to describe the needs of some critical positions from a very practical, non-pretending, perspective of what happens within specific offices. I already discussed two critical positions that do not require IC approval (Emissary and NatSec Advisor) now I outline a third, the White House Counsel.
The Office of White House Counsel does not need IC/Senate approval.
The Office of the White House Counsel (WHC) is the gatekeeper to the Office of the President. The White House Counsel does not represent Donald Trump; the WHC represents the office of the presidency and the person fulfilling the duty of the presidency. For the interests of an effective White House Counsel, who is president is irrelevant; they are guarding the office.
The WHC is critical because it is the advice and opinion of the lawyer in this role who can completely hamstring a President, block a President and ultimately control a President. The WHC also party controls access to the Office of the President, if the person seeking access is determined detrimental to the “office of the president.”
Essentially a legal gatekeeper, with the job to protect the office of the President (not Donald Trump the person), the White House Counsel is very critical. Understanding that lawyers in general are averse to risk, and understanding a White House primary lawyer would be exceptionally averse to risk, most White House counsel office holders are predisposed to create the concentric circles of protection around the office.
The WHC coordinates the collapse of the concentric circles when major crisis unfolds. Starting on the perimeter the WHC organizes the people who will take responsibility for a major problem, with the goal in mind to keep the collateral damage as far away from the office as possible. Like a mob lawyer, the consigliere will tell a person when they must take the blame -self immolate- and exit the White House for the good of the office etc.
That said, there was a very important facet to the White House Counsel’s office that failed in Trump’s first term. This failure cannot be repeated.
In Term-1 the opinion of the White House Counsel was to block all declassification efforts that did NOT have the full support of the Intelligence Community (IC). The IC always knows the White House is averse to risk and the IC weaponize the fear of the WHC against the office of the President.
The declassification process is a request by an agency, including a superior agency like the President of the United States, to the Intelligence Branch asking for them to release the information. The Intelligence Branch again holds full unilateral control.
If the head of the CIA refuses to comply with the declassification instruction of the President, what can the president do except fire him/her? {Again, GO DEEP} How does the President replace the non-compliant cabinet member? They have to go through the SSCI confirmation. See the problem?
In Term-1 the IC message to the WH Counsel was that if Donald Trump declassified any documents, they would use the DOJ (special counsel weapon) to attack the office of the president for “obstructing justice.” The WHC was fraught with fear over what would happen and demanded that POTUS Trump stop trying to declassify information/documents the IC didn’t support.
The IC was trying to take out Donald Trump and the WHC in essence supported their objective because the WHC was only focused on threat mitigation. In term-2 these threats are going to be of even greater significance. The IC is now in a zero-sum game.
The IC has evolved into the superseding, omnipotent 4th branch of government. If Trump wins, the IC are potentially going to be removed or at least greatly diminished. Ergo, the IC will do anything to stay in power. It is exceptionally critical for the next term Trump White House Counsel understand this. The next WHC needs to be as brave as they are legally smart and strategic.
The next WHC needs to be brave for the office, empowering for President Trump, and stand as a flea against a furnace created by the IC and Lawfare system if that is what’s needed.
The next WHC needs to look carefully at the recent SCOTUS decision about the unilateral power of the President within the Executive Branch and lean heavily into that decision; fully extending the power and influence of the Office of the President against the full system of every Executive Branch agency. Each silo needs to be confronted, and it is going to take a very bold WHC to support this effort.
The recent Supreme Court decision gives tremendous power, ABSOLUTE POWER within the Executive Branch, to the President. This is not a time for the WHC to be timid, afraid or risk averse. This is a time for the WHC to spread the wings of the Eagle and sharpen the talons for use against corrupt and weaponized agencies. In short, go on the attack.
Strategic support for the goals and objectives of the President and National Security Advisor, should be the primary filter of consideration for the White House gatekeeper.
The counselor must be smart, killer smart; brutally strategic; cunning and fully versed in how the dark arts will come against them. Prior experience as a target by the same system they now confront should be considered an asset.
The person filling the role of WHC must have exceptional constitutional knowledge and capabilities to guide and counsel the key people in/around the office of the President. Not with the intent to stop the objective, but with the intent to support the objective by telling the scouts and strategic weapons “what” they will face and “where.”
There are some really good lawyers who can fill this role; however, every top-tier candidate must be filtered through the prism of stability, background, the lack of attack vectors against them and keen judgement in all facets of prior political experience. They must also have a disposition of attack, not defense. The WHC needs to push forward, not guard as much.
For this reason, I would love to see a brilliant and snarky lawyer like Eric Dublier take the job; but I doubt he would take it. Another strong possibility would be John Eastman.
John Eastman has been the target of the weaponized IC and Lawfare. He has a brilliant mind, strong constitutional understanding, and, well, perhaps most importantly, he has a personal reason to be pissed off about the current status of our Executive Branch agencies. In the position of White House Counsel, John Eastman Esq would trigger spontaneous ‘splodey heads just from the announcement itself.
A collaboration between John Eastman and Jeffrey Clark would be good strategic positioning. However, President Trump needs to be keenly aware that a team of “professionally republican advisors” will try to steer his options toward lawyers they know will retain the status quo.
♦ The Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) – Remember, my goal is to describe the needs of some critical Executive Branch positions from a very practical, non-pretending, perspective of what happens within specific offices. This outline is going to be a little odd, because almost no one knows what the position of Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) is about.
The ODNI was created as an outcome of the 9-11 Commission recommendations. In the era shortly after 9/11, the DC national security apparatus was constructed to preserve continuity of government and simultaneously view all Americans as potential threats.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) were created specifically for this purpose.
Washington DC created the modern national security apparatus immediately and hurriedly after 9/11/01. DHS came along in 2002, and within the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004 the ODNI was formed.
When Barack Obama and Eric Holder arrived a few years later, those newly formed institutions were viewed as opportunities to create a very specific national security apparatus that would focus almost exclusively against their political opposition.
Here is the weird part. The ODNI was formed in 2004, with the intent for the office to be the pivot point of a national security radar. The DNI was intended to provide information to domestic agencies about foreign terror networks that would prevent something like 9-11 from happening again. However, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence has never, not for one day, operated on this intent. This is why they are such a critical position from my perspective.
The office was new, not established yet as a functioning silo, when Barack Obama and Eric Holder arrived in 2009. They quickly dispatched an idiot, James Clapper, into the operation so they could weaponize around the offices’ fulcrum point.
Prior to the DNI office existing, the CIA radar would sweep externally and then report to the Office of the President. The DNI was intended to take external radar sweep (CIA) and make it a full 360° circle, adding a sweep inside the USA that would be handled by the Dept of Homeland Security.
The DHS sweep and the CIA sweep would then be combined into a central collection hub called the ODNI. Everyone with responsibility for “national security” could access the ODNI material. Essentially and presumably, post 9-11 nothing like jihadists practicing flying airplanes would be missed again; at least that was the intent.
The weird part is that because the DNI was immediately weaponized, the office has never functioned to the purpose of its intent.
No one truly knows what the office possibilities consist of because no one has ever seen anyone try to functionally control the hub. If you think I’m joking about the intent of Obama and John Brennan using the DNI watch this video. This is before Brennan became CIA Director, this is when Brennan was helping Barack Obama put the pillars into place.
.
For the intents of this outline the takeaway is how the DNI office has never been used for good. However, in a strategic way, that can be used to our advantage if you are talking about leveraging silos against each other.
Example: The DNI can assemble material from any silo. Meaning the DNI can reach into any IC silo and extract anything they want. Under the original authorities given to the DNI, this authority exists. So, let’s spread the wings on this office and do exactly what it is permitted to do, only this time extract for the purpose of showing the President what is happening in every silo.
In essence, the DNI *CAN BE* deployed like a super strong cross-silo inspector general’s office. Force the other IC silos to comply with the demands of the DNI. This has never been done. But the DNI has this unique power.
The DNI can make the FBI, DOJ, DOJ-NSD, DoD, DoS and CIA provide anything and everything they demand. Instead of the other silos using blocks and threats against the office of the President, use the authority of the DNI to get them without confrontation. Then use the DNI to declassify the documents (if requested by potus), instead of the originating silo.
Can you see how the DNI office can be repurposed to be a seriously strong weapon in the toolbox of the President, against the schemes of those inside the various IC silos. The DNI becomes much more important than the CIA Director, NSA Director, FBI Director, Attorney General, etc, because the DNI can just show up and say, “give me this.” That’s the whole functional purpose of the DNI office that has never been exerted; let’s flippin’ use it.
Let’s use the office of the DNI as the central information hub that takes information from inside the corrupt silos, then provides that information to the President who puts sunlight upon it. Each corrupt silo penetrated with disinfectant. This could begin a process to pull down the shadow operations and let the American public see what has been happening inside our IC apparatus.
To accomplish this approach the National Security Advisor to the President (NSA), would be the person who tells the DNI exactly what they are looking for.
How does the NSA know what to look for? Because the National Security Advisor is the head of the National Security Council (NSC).
Now you see why I say put the strategic scruffy people like Mike Flynn, Kash Patel, etc etc in a stripped down NSC.
Let the NSC monitor the silos with specific intent, then provide Trump’s NatSec Advisor with details on what appears to be happening and where. With the approval of the President, the NSA then turns to the DNI and says, “POTUS wants this, go get this.”
Raw, unfiltered, unredacted information. The silo administrators end up in a fight with the ODNI, not the office of President Trump. President Trump then uses the power of his office to support the demands of the DNI.
Under this approach the DNI has a lot more power; yet funnily, it’s power they already have – yet have never utilized.
Unfortunately, the DNI needs to be confirmed by the Senate Intelligence Committee – so, this factors into who could achieve the position. [NOTE: Ric Grenell is too valuable in another position.] John Ratcliffe might be a possibility, but I’m not sure he would be strong enough to go up against the system he knows well (and on a character issue he’s bff’s with Trey Gowdy).
Preferably we really want an outsider in this role, yet any true outsider is going to face massive scrutiny getting through the nomination filter.
My gut tells me that Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey might be a strong candidate, and as DNI he can build on his reputation for confronting DHS manipulation.
Missouri AG Andrew Bailey exposed the DHS manipulation of social media and has pushed the envelope against the Deep State/Lawfare attacks against Donald Trump. Bailey has used the power of his office for good purposes, and that provides me with cautious optimism he could do the same at a federal level in the position of Director of National Intelligence.
♦ The next position to outline be a combination. The Secretary of State and the CIA Director.
The U.S State Dept and CIA operation is like a restaurant. The Dept of State is the front of the restaurant, with the Secretary as the Maitre D’. The CIA is the back of the restaurant, the kitchen. The Director is the Chef. The consulates are the wait staff. USAID are the food runners. The Dept of Defense are the bus boys. Ukraine is a big tipper.]
Only a small number of Americans understand the relationship between the U.S. State Dept (DoS) and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). However, as more people understand how these two agencies operate, then people have a much more accurate context for how both agencies are viewed by the rest of the world.
Almost every deployed CIA operative has a cover profile within the State Dept. The foreign service missions of the DoS and CIA are so enmeshed there is literally no way to separate the functions of their agencies. [Go back to the Benghazi Attack for an operational reference] CIA/DoS have to be viewed through the prism of connection.
To better understand this concept, I use the following metaphor:
♦ The U.S State Dept and CIA operation is like a restaurant. The Dept of State is the front of the restaurant, with the Secretary as the Maitre D’. The CIA is the back of the restaurant, the kitchen. The Director is the Chef. The consulates are the wait staff. USAID are the food runners. The Dept of Defense are the bus boys.
The tables and chairs are assigned by the Maitre D’ according to their value. Countries viewed as more important get the best tables. The menus offered to each nation are completely different. Israel has a table in the kitchen. To get the best experience, tips (bribes) are required for everyone, from the parking valets outside, to the sommelier, to the server. Currently, Ukraine is the biggest tipper.
On the oversight aspect the Senate Foreign Relations Committee is the control mechanism to approve/install the Secretary of State. The Senate Select Committee on Intelligence is the control mechanism to approve/install the CIA Director. Everything therein and thereafter is a system of pretending it is something else.
The Dept of State (DoS) is so large there’s no way of addressing the inherent institutional corruption. The Secretary of State can control a small portion of DoS operations, but that’s usually only the geopolitical stuff we see discussed on television, in print media or in press conferences. The business functions of the DoS take place within a network of carefully guarded silos.
Perhaps, the first step in advancing an American-First policy, is to just stop the various administrative offices within the Dept of State from doing anything, literally anything. The challenge within DoS is massive, complex and complicated. I’m genuinely not sure what the Executive Branch mechanism is to do it, but we need to close the restaurant for a few months and do a deep cleaning.
On the back of the operation is the kitchen, the CIA.
It is a popular DC sentiment to say the CIA Director is the most powerful person within the intelligence apparatus. As the viewpoint is shared, it is the established secrecy within the mandate of the institution that gives them power.
Essentially, the CIA was created to be a place where dark arts (lying, spying, manipulation, tradecraft) would be approved and used at the discretion of the institutional leadership. As a consequence, there is no check on the CIA operational agenda. They are permitted by function and mandate, to lie to everyone about what they are doing; this includes the Office of the President.
Because they are essentially an unchecked intelligence silo within a government that has allowed the institution to hold unilateral power and self-policing, the CIA has a power within the apparatus unlike any other member.
Inside the business model of foreign policy as a restaurant, the CIA are in control of the kitchen.
Together the DoS/CIA operate a shadow government, looking out for their best interest while generating power through large multinational institutions (corporations), spy agencies (5-eyes), banks, non-governmental agencies (NGAs) and various influence operations.
The activity of the CIA/DoS construct takes place regardless of who is president. Any hope of busting up this corrupt system is going to take a lot of strategic pounding while confronting the supportive element within the Senate at the same time. [Note this is why repealing the 17th amendment would make the work infinitely easier – and also why the 17th amendment was created by banking interests.]
When you stand back and look at the challenge of confronting the DoS and CIA, you can easily see why the Emissary was the first most important person I noted. If you are going to confront the domestic corruption within the DoS, you need the Emissary as a contact for specific foreign government leaders.
Under my approach, the interim foreign policy of the USA shifts away from Foggy Bottom and directly back to the White House. This provides space to destroy the system through domestic confrontation.
A new State Dept Secretary is going to have to push intensely and forcefully to support the goals of President Trump while understanding the internal effort is going to be much less glamorous, but historically far more important.
♦ The Secretary of State needs to have an understanding of the scale of the system underneath them, a comprehensive understanding of the opposition they will face from within that system, and the fortitude to keep playing whac-a-mole until the heads of the sub-silos are slowly removed. The person in this role needs to be a ‘high energy, smart, multitasker.’ The odds are all against them.
♦ The CIA Director needs the same type of understanding, and an impenetrable ability to put the USA interests above the interests of anyone else who has a table in the kitchen. Given the relationships within the aligned Western Intelligence Services, this is going to be a nerve-wracking challenge. As much as I want the CIA candidate to know the scale of the problem they will face, in one important way it might be more beneficial if the person didn’t know the scale of opposition they will face. This is a dark place.
This is a four-year plunge into one of the most corrupt enterprises at the heart of the DC swamp. The DoS/CIA are the guards of the drain. The drain is underneath decades of bile, silt, muck, scum, filth and horrible stuff.
Our candidates for these jobs need to be high-energy and full of equal parts determination, fortitude, piss and vinegar.
My recommendations are pictured below:
Continuing our discussion around the challenge to Trump staffing in 2025, we now shift focus to the FBI Director, Deputy Director and Chief Legal Counsel positions.
However, in order to appropriately discuss this critical silo, it becomes very important for everyone to understand the current status of the FBI as the organization has self-identified.
For those who followed the 2016 campaign of President Trump and then watched the 2017 attacks organized by the DOJ and FBI toward the incoming Trump administration, you may agree with me that a complete disassembly of the FBI is now warranted. I will walk through the process, but first it is important to understand just how bad the corruption has become:
RECAP: The FBI relationship with Antifa is exactly what we have previously discussed on these pages. There is no way for Antifa to operate as a domestic extremist group, without the expressed support and willful blindness of the FBI. Quite simply if the FBI wanted to stop the violent and extremist activity of Antifa, they could do that easily.
Remember, the objective of the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago was to resecure what they perceived as physical evidence President Trump controlled showing how the DOJ and FBI action in 2016 was targeting him using the power of their law enforcement and intelligence agencies. In the background, the origination of all the DOJ/FBI/IC targeting goes back to the ’15/’16 FBI exploitation of the NSA database; this is not a contested discussion issue – it’s just continually forgotten.
The FBI was using their access to the NSA metadata of all Americans, to conduct surveillance on political candidates that might be a threat to the power structures that exploited the secrets within the electronic records of all Americans. The FBI was, almost certainly still is, conducting domestic surveillance and tracking Americans just like the German Stasi or Soviet KGB. It’s still happening, but we are not supposed to talk about it, or something.
The raid on Mar-a-Lago, just like the Robert Mueller investigation, was part of a long standing coverup operation. The FBI was looking for what Trump took with him as evidence of the weaponized system that targeted him. The FBI wanted that back. The FBI was willing to use deadly force to get it back if that’s what it took.
Using the FBI to filter security clearances – [Fourth Branch of Govt]
A History of FBI Weaponization – [SEE HERE]
The modern FBI is the police agency of a weaponized U.S government, with a direct and purposeful mandate to keep the American people under control through strict surveillance and a violent police state.
Understand and accept this with great seriousness, there are no honorable “rank and file” inside this organization.
Every member of the FBI is a participant in the weaponization of power and government. The members are jackboots recruited from ideological college campuses for exactly the purpose of supporting a Stasi-like police state.
Through the past several years, we have discovered how the FBI worked inside Twitter, Facebook and social media to control information, remove content and manipulate opinion on behalf of the U.S. government – all activity political.
We have also learned the FBI took active measures to suppress information about the Hunter Biden laptop and control any negative consequences for the Biden regime – again, political. These are not disputed realities.
The U.S. Dept of Justice and FBI are now political institutions that have abandoned their originating mission in order to become the domestic equivalent of the Soviet-era FSB. Their joint targeting mechanisms have been redesigned to support the interests of corrupt DC politicians, specifically the interests of Democrats.
It was in June 2022, when Senator Chuck Grassley sent a letter [pdf HERE] to Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Chris Wray, notifying them of whistleblower allegations from within the FBI that senior leadership in both Main Justice and FBI are involved in a coordinated effort to cover up criminal activity related to Hunter Biden.
The whistleblower allegations, in combination with the documented history of DOJ and FBI misconduct, culminate in Senator Grassley stating:
“If these allegations are true and accurate, the Justice Department and FBI are – and have been – institutionally corrupted to their very core to the point in which the United States Congress and the American people will have no confidence in the equal application of the law. Attorney General Garland and Director Wray, simply put, based on the allegations that I’ve received from numerous whistleblowers, you have systemic and existential problems within your agencies.” (LINK)
Grassley was admitting what has been visible for years.
Senator Grassley is telling the corrupt DOJ-FBI leadership that people in the organizations are outlining the detailed behavior of their corrupt leadership. However, with zero oversight involved, and with Democrats in charge of all committees that would be responsible for such oversight, and with institutional media in alignment and agreement with the corrupt institutional intents of the DOJ/FBI, the frustrating question becomes, “and“?
I mean, who are we kidding? If Republicans were in charge of the Senate Judiciary, Reform/Oversight, or Intelligence committees, do we really believe that anything would be different? Before responding to that cynicism, remind yourself, they were for four years, January 2015 through January 2019, Republicans in charge of oversight.
It was exactly when Republicans were in charge of Main Justice and FBI oversight that Main Justice and FBI were targeting political candidate Donald Trump.
In July 2021, the DOJ OIG produced an absolutely damning Inspector General investigation of FBI conduct in the rape and sexual assault of U.S. Gymnasts, revealing how FBI agents facilitated Nassar’s sex crimes by taking no action despite numerous witness statements to them.
Worse yet, the FBI never reported the sexual assaults to local law enforcement… and to top it off, the rank and vile FBI agents lied during the investigation of their conduct, and the DOJ under AG Bill Barr, and now under AG Merrick Garland, refused to prosecute the FBI liars.
The entire IG report [Must Read pdf Here] reveals layer-upon-layer of FBI wrongdoing, misconduct and false statements in an effort to cover up their activity when the internal investigation of their conduct began. This report is a total condemnation of the FBI rank and file. It really is quite stunning.
BACKGROUND on FBI – As we discovered in January of 2023, the FBI was fully aware of the terrorist who was planning to shoot the synagogue in Colleyville, Texas, and yet they did nothing.
The FBI knowledge of the shooter, Malik Faisal Akram, who was known as Faisal Akram, was confirmed by The Daily Mail. Akram ranted, prior to his travel to the U.S, that he wished he had died in the 9/11 terror attacks. He was a regular visitor to Pakistan, and reportedly a member of the Tablighi Jamaat group set up to ‘purify’ Islam. To say the U.S. intelligence system knew Faisal Akram would be an understatement.
The FBI was also fully aware of the Boston Marathon bombers, the Tsarnaev brothers, before they executed their plot. The FBI took no action. The Russian police twice warned the FBI that the Tsarnaev brothers were going to carry out a domestic terrorist attack on the USA, the FBI did nothing.
The FBI knew about the San Bernardino terrorists, specifically Tashfeen Malik, and were monitoring her phone calls and communications before her and Syed Farook executed their attack killing 14 people and leaving 22 others seriously injured. The FBI took no action.
The FBI knew Colorado grocery store shooter Ahmad Alissa before he executed his attack. The FBI took no action.
The FBI knew in advance of the Pulse Nightclub shooter (Omar Mateen) and were tipped off by the local sheriff. The FBI knew in advance of the San Bernardino Terrorists (Tashfeen Malik). The FBI knew in advance of the Boston Marathon Bombers (the Tsarnaev brothers) tipped off by Russians. The FBI knew in advance of the Parkland High School shooter (Nikolas Cruz). The FBI knew in advance of the Fort Hood shooter (Nidal Hasan), and the FBI knew in advance of Colorado grocery store shooter Ahmad al-Aliwi Alissa. The FBI took no action.
The case of the first recorded ISIS attack on U.S. soil was in Garland, Texas in 2015.
The FBI not only knew the shooters (Elton Simpson and Nadir Soofi) in advance, BUT the FBI ALSO took the shooters to the venue and were standing only a few yards away when Simpson and Soofi opened fire. Yes, you read that correctly – the FBI took the terrorists to the event and then watched it unfold. “An FBI trainer suggested in an interview with “60 Minutes” that, had the attack been bigger, the agency’s numerous ties to the shooter would have led to a congressional investigation.”
Remember, shortly before the 2018 mid-term election, when Ceasar Syoc – a man living in his van – was caught sending “energetic material that can become combustible when subjected to heat or friction”, or what FBI Director Christopher Wray called “not hoax devices”?
Remember how sketchy everything about that was, including the child-like perpetrator telling a judge later that he was trying to walk back his guilty plea, because he was tricked into signing a confession for a crime he did not create.
Or more recently, the goofball plot to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer that involved 18 suspects, twelve of them actually working for the FBI as the plot was hatched? And we cannot forget the January 6th. DC protest turned insurrection effort, which is clearly looking like an FBI inspired and coordinated effort; and unlike Syoc, despite the numerous CCTV cameras and resources in the area, they cannot find who placed the pipe-bombs?
Have we forgotten the Atlanta “Olympic Park Bombing”, and the FBI intentionally setting up transparently innocent, Richard Jewel?
What about the FBI failing to investigate the assassination of U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens in Benghazi. Did we forget when Robert Mueller’s FBI waited 19 days after the Benghazi attack before showing up at the compound?…. Journalists from the USA were walking around the compound after 48 hours, but it took the FBI another two weeks before the first investigator arrived…. All evidence long destroyed.
Then, there’s the entirety of the FBI conduct in “Spygate”, the demonstrably evident FBI operation to conduct political surveillance against Donald Trump using their investigative authorities; and the downstream consequences of a massive institutional effort to cover up one of the biggest justice department scandals in the history of our nation. The original effort against Donald Trump used massive resources from the DOJ and FBI. Heck, the coverup operation using the Mueller/Weissmann special counsel used more than 50 investigative FBI agents alone.
And of course, the FBI still had 13 extra agents available to rush to a NASCAR racetrack to investigate a garage door pull-down rope that might have been perceived as a noose; but the serial rape of hundreds of teenage girls, eh, not-so-much effort – even when they are standing in front of the FBI begging for help.
[At this point, I am increasingly convinced by evidence there are elements within the FBI that are enablers involved in sex trafficking, human smuggling, abduction, counterfeiting and money laundering as part of their operational mission.]
The FBI didn’t make a mistake or drop the proverbial ball in the Olympic gymnast case, they intentionally and specifically maintained the sexual exploitation of teenage girls by doing absolutely nothing with the complaints they received. This is not misconduct, this is purposeful.
Then, as if to apply salt to the open wound of severe FBI politicization, what did the FBI do with the Hunter Biden laptop?
[Notice I’ve set the issue of the disappearing Huma Abedin/Anthony Weiner laptop –in the known custody of the FBI– over there in the corner, next to missing investigation of the Awan brothers.]
More recently, the FBI executed a search warrant on the home and office of Project Veritas and the founder James O’Keefe. While the raid was taking place, a New York Times reporter called O’Keefe to ask him about his thoughts on getting raided. The same New York Times journalist, a few days later, then begins writing about the confidential attorney-client privileged information illegally retrieved then leaked by the FBI during their raid.
♦My point is this…
What the Federal Security Service (FSB) is to the internal security of the Russian state, so too is the FBI in performing the same function for the U.S. federal government.
The FBI is a U.S. version of the Russian “State Police”; and the FBI is deployed -almost exclusively- to attack domestic enemies of those who control government, while they protect the interests of the U.S. Fourth Branch of Government. That is the clear and accurate domestic prism to contextualize their perceived mission: “domestic violent extremists pose the greatest threat” to their objective.
Put another way, “We The People”, who fight against government abuse and usurpation, are the FBI’s actual and literal enemy.
Let me be very clear with another brutally obvious example. Antifa could not exist as an organization, capable to organize and carry out violent attacks against their targets, without the full support of the FBI. If the FBI wanted to arrest members of Antifa, who are actually conducting violence, they could do it easily – with little effort.
It is the absence of any action, by the FBI toward Antifa, that tells us the FBI is enabling that violent extremist behavior to continue. Once you accept that transparent point of truth, then you realize the FBI definition of domestic violent extremism is something else entirely.
The FBI is not a law enforcement or investigative division of the U.S. Department of Justice. The FBI is a political weapon of a larger institution that is now focused almost entirely toward supporting a radical communist agenda to destroy civil society in the United States.
The FBI set up the operation in Michigan to give the illusion that domestic threats were attempting to kidnap Governor Gretchen Whitmer, everything about the events were an FBI construct. The same thing with the January 6th events in Washington DC and the pipe bombs. These are domestic FBI operations. Think about the precarious nature of what this type of activity indicates.
The current mission of the FBI appears to be preserving and protecting institutional power by protecting the administration of Joe Biden.
Anyone who continues to push this insufferable and fraudulent “honorable FBI rank and file talking point”, is, at this point in history, willfully and purposefully operating to deceive the American people on behalf of government interests who are intent on destroying us.
It is not a difference of opinion any longer. Personally, I have lost the ability to sit comfortably or intellectually with anyone who pushes or accepts the ‘mistakes are made’ nonsense. The FBI is not making mistakes, they are doing well what is important to them.
To me, it comes down to a simple matter of accepting what is continually staring us in the face.
Additionally, as we watched the outcome of the Michael Sussmann trial, we should never lose sight of the fact that 40 FBI agents were involved in the Mueller-Weissmann probe to investigate the fraudulent construct created by Hillary Clinton and crew. 40 agents? And, according to the outcome of the Sussmann trial, the FBI knew it was all a ruse.

This is why and how the Fourth Branch of U.S. Government is now the superseding apparatus above all other branches. {GO DEEP} This is why and how Barack Obama, John Brennan and Eric Holder created it, cemented it, and made it impervious to any effort to remove it.
Remember when Henry Cuellar was critical of the Biden administration open border policies that were hurting his Texas district? Less than a month after going public with his criticisms, the FBI raids on his home and office began. The same FBI that raided the home of James O’Keefe while coordinating their search with the New York Times.
The Fourth Branch of Government is corrupt; heck, the J6 committee was defending the corrupt FBI, participating with the corrupt FBI, selling a joint J6 operation that involved the FBI. The corrupt media have aligned with the corrupt FBI, and the justice institutions in/around this legal framework are self-aware and fully autonomous.
As the Twitter files show, the DOJ and FBI, through the authority of DHS, now have the ability to monitor every single aspect of every life that might seek to challenge or destroy the corrupt system.
In essence, Skynet -the ultimate end game of political surveillance and targeting outlined by Edward Snowden- has been activated. We the People are the enemy of the state.
Jackboots are very real, and they are wearing FBI logos on their shirts.
♦ The Federal Bureau of Investigation – Arguably the FBI is the key agency within the U.S. government that has provided the most discussion since the agency first targeted presidential candidate Donald Trump in 2015/2016.
The FBI is without doubt the one agency I have spent the most time researching in the past decade; in part due to the researched corruption within it, and in part due to stunning revelations discovered about the way it operates.
With background context previously shared, my goal is to outline an aspect within the silo that few really understand.
This outline is extremely challenging without context. Some of the questions people have about the agency will hopefully be answered, and my hope is everyone who reads will have new context.
Let’s start with a simple question: How is it the FBI can botch so many openly problematic investigative issues like terrorist attacks, and yet simultaneously spend so much time investigating issues that seemingly have little or no value?
In essence, how does the FBI miss so much, yet have time for things that seem openly political?
The answer to that question took a long time to understand, it’s much more than just institutional corruption.
The FBI as an institution has a modern operational mission that is different from what is commonly thought to exist. The reality of the modern FBI mission consists of prioritizing their work based on the interests of Washington DC, and ONLY the interests of Washington DC.
If a subject can be defined as a priority for the system of government in Washington DC, then that subject is the targeting priority for the FBI. It does not matter what priority is assigned by any outside interest on the issue; nor does it matter what level of importance exists from the actual threat itself.
Example. The FBI misses terrorist threats, because the FBI -as a totally siloed agency- is not informed of the threat from DC. If a citizen, group, or outside agency reports a potential risk it is not investigated. This surfaces in everything from the Boston Marathon bombers to the Parkland shooter, to U.S. gymnasts being sexually assaulted. If the “threat” defined is not a threat to DC interests, then the threat is not pursued by the FBI.
The FBI only investigates threats or subjects of interest that stem from origination in Washington DC. Meaning if the DC system is threatened by the subject, that subject gets investigated. If the DC system does not trigger the notification, the FBI does not investigate it.
In essence the FBI only investigates threats as they are defined by other agencies, or silos, within Washington DC. The FBI is the internal agency that protects the DC system. This is a bastardized concept, a completely screwed up institutional mission, that stems from within the term “the continuation of government.”
A local or state issue, is not a priority for the FBI, even if the issue is a major threat to the domestic tranquility…. UNLESS, that issue, person or group threatens the stakeholders within the DC political system. This manifests openly by the inability of citizens to provide information that triggers action by the FBI.
The FBI only responds to investigative actions requested by agencies within Washington DC. Typically, Main Justice or the DOJ is the source of those originating requests; however, sometimes the executive or legislative branch can trigger the FBI action, if the identified threat has the potential to upset political operations within Washington DC.
Armed with empirical, undeniable evidence of corrupt activity, I was prepared to engage the FBI when I was intercepted by a person who warned me about this operational mission. It was from that point that I really began to understand the FBI as a silo within the system that is entirely predicated on self-preservation.
If a person brings a federal corruption issue to the FBI (like evidence of corrupt activity), they will end up being a target of the FBI because the evidence itself is likely adverse to one or more interests within DC. There are many reference examples, but two you will likely know are James O’Keefe (Ashley Biden diary) and/or voter fraud (writ large, with Michigan as a great example).
Because the Biden Diary threatened the DC government interest, O’Keefe quickly became a target. Because voter fraud in Michigan threatened the DC government interest, the FBI stepped in to cover it up. You can say the same for the Awan brothers, the Huma Abedin laptop, the Clinton classified emails and many more.
The FBI has two ways to protect the interests of DC: (1) Defend by investigating the accuser, evidence holder, or person who raises the issue. (2) Defend by non-investigation of the subject matter (Olympic Gymnasts, Epstein, etc). Again, if the institutional interests within DC are threatened by the subject matter, the objective of the FBI is to defend those institutional interests.
The FBI is not a federal investigative agency with a mission to serve and protect the people of the United States. The FBI is a federal investigative agency with a mission to protect the institutional interests of Washington DC. Once you understand this process with clarity then everything the FBI does and does not investigate, makes sense.
This operational mission of the FBI explains why when a citizen brings an issue to the FBI, the citizen is more than likely going to end up as a target. This reality is key to understanding the disparity between what people perceive as the FBI mission, and what the ACTUAL mission is.
This is not some off-the-cuff disparagement or conspiracy theory; this is the fact-based reality of how the FBI works. Even in my own discussions with John Durham’s FBI investigators, they openly admitted how their operational mission does not permit them to entertain any evidence of corruption or wrongdoing within government.
When you understand how it works, then you start to realize the futility of expecting any investigative outcome from the FBI toward anything that does not threaten Washington DC. Protecting the DC system IS the goal, the priority, the operational mission; nothing more. Does the FBI inability to track the J6 pipe-bomber make more sense now? There are a tremendous number of examples.
The various FBI offices distributed around the nation are essentially interception venues, constantly on the lookout to protect the interests of DC. If an issue surfaces that could potentially put the administrative state, or any actor therein at risk, the FBI is far more likely to intercede, intercept and manage away the issue.
The FBI are essentially investigative managers; they are not concerned with fraud or criminal wrongdoing when/if that fraud or corruption might put a part of the DC system at risk. Instead, the FBI will take control of the problem and throw their investigative blanket over it (Ex. Hunter Biden laptop, as given by the computer repair shop). The non-pretending people within the FBI will admit this, as will just about anyone who has ever had experience reaching out to the FBI for investigative assistance.
Once you take this context and apply it to examples you can reference, then suddenly everything the FBI does and does not do, makes sense. Every contradiction, and I do mean each example that might be pulled into the conversation as a reference point, makes sense from the reality of this perspective. The raid on Mar-a-Lago and the targeting of President Trump is another brutally obvious example.
Many voices have recently started calling for the elimination of the FBI as a result of controversies that surround this factual mission priority. Those voices are not wrong; in fact, there is no way to reform the FBI as an investigative agency, because the mission of the agency is the opposite of what it should be.
The FSB is known to protect the interests of the Russian government; this is accepted and no longer arguable. However, the same purpose is true with the USA and the FBI relationship toward government. Unfortunately, the system of government that benefits from this protection is never going to willingly remove their guards.
The last point on this issue is even more alarming. Only a handful of people within Washington DC will admit the truth behind the FBI mission.
With this in mind, who should be the FBI Director, Deputy Director and Chief Legal Counsel for a President Trump administration.
If the goal is to begin the process to remove the institution, it is going to take a massive amount of public education to get this level of support in place. Removing this one agency silo is going to take up a lot of time by senior members of the Trump administration.
FBI Director: Clay Higgins
Deputy FBI Director: Kris Kobach
FBI Chief Legal Counsel: Tony Buzbee
♦ The Department of Justice – Now we turn our attention toward Main Justice, the DOJ in DC.
Main Justice works closely with the FBI on what is loosely termed federal “law and order.” There are several positions within the DOJ that are familiar as a result of the modern weaponization that took place.
As an institution, Main Justice is now almost exclusively a Lawfare targeting mechanism.
The Dept of Justice unilaterally focuses all criminal investigative resources against the political enemies of the Administrative State.
This is not to say Republicans are targets, because often the republicans are beneficiaries of the targeting operation. Think about the example of Main Justice working with the IRS to target the Tea Party groups in 2010 and 2011.
The Republicans were much more opposed to the Tea Party than the Democrats were. The professional republican apparatus was furious about the primary victories of the Tea Party, and subsequently benefitted from the DOJ targeting of the various patriot movements.
FBI HQ left, Main Justice HQ right
Main Justice targets individuals, organizations and systems that government officials and politicians determine are a threat to the power structure. The Intelligence Community use their ability to conduct electronic surveillance to discover evidence against their targets. The IC then feeds the evidence to Main Justice giving them the targeting coordinates. The DOJ takes action based on the information from the IC, often using the FBI as the enforcement mechanism.
The entire structure of Main Justice as an institution is corrupt, top to bottom. Much like the FBI, there is no agency, office, or subsidiary set of personnel within the DOJ that is not compromised by the modern mission of the organization. This is a critical point to accept, because if it is not accepted then we repeat the mistakes of thinking an Attorney General alone can correct the problem. They cannot.
Within the DOJ there are several divisions that must be addressed simultaneously if any effort to take it down to brass tacks is going to succeed. This cannot be a delicate surgical approach, the effort to remove the corrupt lesion will need chainsaws not scalpels. The fine surgical details and cleaning will be for the next administration.
The interior silos each have an important role, and they include: (1) the DOJ-National Security Division (DOJ-NSD), (2) the DOJ Civil Rights Division, (3) the DOJ-Community Relations Service (DOJ-CRS), and (4) the DOJ Inspector General’s Office. These are the four key agencies within the larger Main Justice system that must be addressed from DC.
Of those FOUR AGENCIES, the single most important one is the DOJ-National Security Division (DOJ-NSD). This is the interior silo that was corrupted from its origin and remained intentionally without Inspector General oversight until 2017.
When we think of the common Lawfare targeting the enemies of the Deep State like Donald Trump, that’s the core purpose of the DOJ-NSD.
DOJ-NSD: […] ” The National Security Division (NSD) was created in March 2006 by the USA PATRIOT Reauthorization and Improvement Act (Pub. L. No. 109-177). The creation of the NSD consolidated the Justice Department’s primary national security operations: the former Office of Intelligence Policy and Review and the Counterterrorism and Counterintelligence and Export Control Sections of the Criminal Division. The new Office of Law and Policy and the Executive Office, as well as the Office of Justice for Victims of Overseas Terrorism (which previously operated out of the Criminal Division) complete the NSD. The NSD commenced operations in September 2006 upon the swearing in of the first Assistant Attorney General for National Security.” (link)
The DOJ-NSD hides behind the justification of “national security” to cloud their activity. In many ways the DOJ-NSD and the CIA have the same cover story that allows them virtually omnipotent power.
The President has previously been hamstrung by the claimed importance and power of agencies under the guise of national security. As you can see from the origin, the Legislative Branch created the beast then cowered away from oversight. The worst outcome stemmed from the Judicial Branch who historically deferred to the national security apparatus.
To understand the dynamic with the Judicial Branch it is worth looking at the outcome of the DOJ-NSD targeting President Trump on the issue of classified records. Check the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals framing.
As you can see the DOJ-NSD knows how to use “national security” as a sword and a shield. This is essentially the issue now created by the DOJ-NSD targeting President Trump.
With the Legislative Branch compromised by their own creation, and with the Judicial Branch stuck inside an old paradigm of “national security” you can see how confronting the DOJ-NSD can only come from one place, THE OVAL OFFICE.
The President of the United States, hopefully Donald J Trump, is going to have to do what the other branches have failed to do, take apart the DOJ-NSD and remove all the functions of Main Justice to their pre-Patriot Act status. This is not going to be easy and will take a very specific type of person as U.S. Attorney General who both understands the issue and can, more importantly, articulate the problem to the larger American public.
So, we have some context for the positions that will be important. We need:
♦ An Attorney General (AG);
♦ A Deputy Attorney General (DAG);
♦ An Asst Deputy AG in charge of the NSD;
♦ An Asst Deputy AG in charge of the Civil Rights Division.
♦ And we need a key person in charge of the ultra-secretive DOJ Community Relations Service.
We need more, but these are the most critical positions to cover – AND REMEMBER, not a single person who has ever worked in Main Justice should ever be considered a candidate for any leadership position in 2025. If they worked in the corrupt DOJ system, they are corrupt – I do not care what capacity they worked in it before.
♦ The AG needs to be ultra clean with a spine of steel and a laser focus. The AG needs to totally understand the goals and objectives, without being told what the goals and objectives are. The AG needs to be independent, stable, strategic, brutally honest and keenly confident in his/her communication style with the attack media.
President Trump cannot spend exhaustive time instructing the AG on critical priorities. The AG needs to operate with skill, focus and self-motivated energy. The AG will be the focus of the Lawfare crew for removal/recusal. (Weissmann, McCord, Eisen, etc.)
♦ The Deputy AG needs to be intensely capable to stay on task with minimal supervision. The DAG is the git-r’-done person, no excuses, no apologies, no explanations. Raw, brutal, cold, quiet and determined. The DAG needs eyes of a mouse and ears of an elephant. The DAG needs to be a sponge, with total loyalty to the mission. The DAG also needs to be the bridge to the FBI.
♦ The Asst DAG in charge of the NSD will be walking into the heart of Obama/Holder’s created snake pit. This DOJ-NSD position covers Foreign Agent Registration Act violations (targeting) as well as the weaponized FISA constructs. The person put into this silo needs to completely understand the dynamic of the DOJ-NSD as the source of the most weaponized aspects.
♦ The Asst DAG in charge of the Civil Rights Division will be critical for all elements of election reform. The ADAG-CRD is going to be attacked, called racist and blasted by the Lawfare operatives. The Civil Rights Division DAG will be targeted by Marc Elias and hundreds of activist lawyers inside every aligned non-governmental agency who depends on the DOJ for enforcement and support.
♦ The person in charge of the Community Relations Service will need to head-off the FBI constructs and false flag attacks targeting the Trump administration. The CRS leadership will need to protect all of the DOJ team from the Antifa/BLM efforts as they are manufactured by the FBI silo operators.
Potential candidates:
♦ Attorney General – Ken Paxton (TX)
♦ Deputy AG – Jeff Landry (LA)
♦ Deputy AG NSD – Sidney Powell
♦ Deputy AG Civil Rights Division – Byron Donalds
♦ Community Relations Service – Vivek Ramaswamy













Great work
I agree. SD, this reflects the tremendous work you’ve done previously in working to understand and dissect the DC silo system. I am very impressed with your thinking and recommendations. This would result in yuge amounts of splodey heads for sure. I can’t help chuckling about the thought of the Ric Grinnell and Harriet Hageman recommendations. Please make it so.
That will up to Mitch (leader or not), give him more funding for Ukraine, he can ‘make it so’.
I sure hope Republicans will win control of the House and Senate, for all 4 years, were going to need some strong Reps and Senators to accomplish much outside of the Executive Branch.
The only choice I’m not in agreement with is Sidney Powell. She has proven herself disloyal and has shown that she’ll cave.
Your choice?
There aren’t all that many reliable lawyers out there (at least, that would accept the job).
License to Lie by Sydney Powell is an excellent expose of the problems at the DOJ. She has incredible insight, actual knowledge of the players, the issues and the impacts of the DOJ bad acts. She has worked hard to educate the public while still practicing law. She was targeted by lawfare. She knows how to protect herself by using their tactics against them. I suspect neither she nor Patrick Byrne had all of the knowledge of all the bad actors and the plans to shine the light on the corrupt (nor, do I suspect did the 200 generals) so her December 2020 attempt to address the election fraud was tabled. Yes, I do believe we are currently under a continuity of government and that Trump is the commander in chief. Towards the end of PDJT’s first term, Chris Miller had the table set for the eventual takedown of the corrupt criminals. Considering the extent if the corruption, I suspect there were a fair number of extensions added to that table.
Her “Krakken” comment caused more trouble than almost anything else. People trusted her, and she didn’t come through with evidence.
I like her a lot, but she was too quick to fall for some propaganda, which was then used to discredit anything she said.
The evidence is there , the IC / Deep State managed to keep the courts from looking at it or even acknowledging it existence .
Epic Sundance.
I was trying to come up with
a comment…..
Epic!
Perfect description 👏👏
Your pen to God’s ears, and further to President Trump’s heart. Make it so Lord, make it so!
100% pure win.
Over the top perfect. Now the challenge is to get this info out to people. I find that folks, even good conservative folks, are reading less and less. They have that 1000 stare.
Keeping Javanka far away is a good start.
Let’s Roll.
I will read this in more detail tomorrow. Ken Paxton would be the biggest threat to the DC Establishment. He is ruthless, cunning and smart. As AG, he would clean house in no time (and it wouldn’t be just Dems). I don’t think he would be confirmed by Establishment Republicans. RINO Cornyn wanted Paxton thrown in jail by the Marxist mob. Trump could tell Cornyn that Paxton will run against Cornyn in 2026 if he doesn’t confirm him. Trump knows how to play hard ball, and he owns the GOP this time.
speaking of the Senate, no McConnell people can be near power. So Cornyn, Thune, out.
Amen and hell yeah
McCarthy said yesterday that he thought Thune would be the Leader in the Senate. I agree it needs to be fresh blood. Maybe the Leader/President of the Senate needs to be VP Vance.
Beware also of James “Ginger Jim” Lankford (R-OK). He’s pining to be the new McCain, Flake or Romney.
He is going to be on those Diddy (or Abercrombie) tapes.
No need to worry about him, I think.
What a huge disappointment he turned out to be.
Unfortunately, the GOP Senate caucus gets to choose the party’s Senate leader.
True – but in their Senate meeting, most agree that the most important voice in choosing the new Senate Leader will be President Trump. His choice will carry a lot of weight.
I like the way you think!
I’m sending this article to my brothers and sister so we can discuss it after we digest it and that means reading it a few times!
Bringing down the walls of the IC needs to be followed by the crumbling of the Bush Cartel AND their ‘China’ Foundation……….
The Bush cartel’s nefarious dealings need to be imploded; they propagate evil under the government’s nose disguised as ‘business’…..
God Help US
Listen to this and imagine Hageman as AG https://www.podbean.com/ep/pb-a257p-1710c9d
I personally believe Ms. Hageman has nerves and cajones of high grade steel. I have watched her on the house committee questioning and she is definitely a “take no prisoners” kind of public servant.
After hearing Hageman speak a number of times and her questioning of those giving testimony, I wonder if that were your mom as a kid?
You’d probably never even jaywalk.
Hageman was a very good friend of Lizzard Cheney.
Good or bad?
I’m quite sure she was cordial – that’s how the politics at that level plays.
But I sense in Harriet the same ability PDJT has to keep friends close and enemies closer. She’s no fool.
She did endorse her but said she was ‘a good friend’ in 2016. As heated as the contest was when she defeated her, I don’t think that is bad, but good. She clearly made a choice for truth and integrity when she ran against her.
A former friend is far more dangerous than an acquaintance. They know our vulnerabilities and blind spots.
Great work. Shouldn’t the Bureau of Homeland Security person deliberately shut down the entire Bureau, and fold it into another department?
Wonder if Dr. Carson would do it?
He’d be perfect for the job.
Dr. Carson is already in sundance’s long article (kind of a novel!) in the character of The Emissary.
And my guess is he is already fulfilling that function…
seen this from Grenell, re: Nikki Haley?
Richard Grenell on X: “Of course. We need her and everyone we can get. She’s an important voice.” / X
Diplomacy
It was in response on who would campaign in the final days for Trump. Grenell believes that a bigger tent is better to get the votes out. I agree with him.
Don’t think he’s referring to the administration but the campaign
“Former Nat Sec Advisor Michael Flynn disqualified himself from further consideration by poor judgement.”
Sidney Powell ditto.
I appreciate there seems to be some mutual personal animosity there but I would like to see Robert Barnes given a high position within the Trump legal framework, unless there is something that I have completely missed for five years? Barnes was front and centre of the only genuine election challenge (Georgia) and has been consistently pro-Trump anti-swamp. One of the white hats for mine.
Agree on Powell. She was good until she jumped the gun on the mandamus.
She said when she pled guilty to the plea bargain in GA that she was going to retire, anyway.
I agree on Powell and Flynn, 100%. They are both just a no from ,e.
Deleted.
I am captivated and educated with the in-depth analysis of each of the critical IC related positions you have described. If Trump is elected and if we get even some of the top choices you have pointed to, then the country will be in excellent shape to endure the non-stop assault that is on the menu for the next 4 years. Dont forget we have JD Vance who can step up in many ways to help out.
I did not see Allen West nor many other well known anti-jihadist (pro American) persons on the list but I know there are many behind the scenes persons who can bring knowledge and courage to the new administration. Thank you for going the distance and bringing us a wonderful in-depth analysis of the Eye of Sauron problem that we will now encounter if the ballot counting gets to the wished for outcome of a DJ Trump election.
Who are you, Sundance???
Damn you’re smart!
Hope I get to meet you one day.
👏👏👏
I was thinking he’d make a great WH Press Secty! He could wear a mask. It would be must-see TV!
Sundance I do not know who you are, but you truly should serve as emissary.
That analysis and cutting to the chase with certain individuals for specific positions is priceless.
Thank you!
That alone reminded me I was due to donate again!
Now if we can just get President Trump the win he has earned what an interesting, historic, time to witness
They are going to cheat, but President has such a lead I just pray 🙏 it’s impossible for them to overcome!
Catherine Austin Fitts for Treasury Secretary or Fed Chairman. We need to get back the 21+ trillion they stole from us. She has tracked it all.
Isn’t she anti-PDJT?
Agree 100%
Superb!
I want Ben Carson in the WH, but I don’t know if he’s mean enough to deal with some of the lower-than-low types the Emissary will have to neuter.
And IIRC, Eastman has been disbarred by CA. Trump needs a WH Counsel with impeccable credentials, as well as with the expertise.
Any lawyer who joins the senior staff on Trump’s team in any federal department or White House position will face a credible threat of disbarment.
And the more impeccable are the credentials, the more likely it is that a lawyer who joins Trump’s team will be disbarred. It comes with the territory of being forced to deal with a mostly leftist controlled legal profession.
Eastman has already been disbarred so he should not be giving legal advice. He would be practicing law without a license.
As long as he is advising as an assistant, he can hold that position. It would only be practicing without a license if he represents a client in court.
Eastman can easily be admitted to the “Bar” in Florida, Texas, Utah or Idaho!
States usually have reciprocity agreements so a disbarment in one state automaticaly leads to disbarment in other states and federal courts.
You know, if you had one courageous state, just one, that might not be an impossible hurdle to jump.
The reciprocity agreements have been in place for years.
It would be great if one could ignore CA’s action because I think Eastman’s (and Rudy’s) disbarments were a disgrace, but I doubt there is any state supreme court that would do it, and it’s the state supreme court is usually that last forum to weigh in on bar admission in a state.
Not always. Lin Wood is a prime example. He was disbarred in one state, but other states had to go after him in their states to disbarred him in those states.
Looks like the Leftists have a knack for disbarring the GREAT, patriotic, US Constitutional lawyers doesn’t it.
I think Ben Carson would be very suited for Health and Human Services
and as a world reknown Doctor he could deal wiht the nonsense from the CDC
etc.
Absolutely, He has the scientific background to know what’s actually been going on.
Fauci kept funding gain-of-function research by calling it something else – and sending the funds to China by way of a third party in the US.
And we need someone to direct health spending back to health, not to “health problems” like climate change, racism, equity, etc.
I hate to see Dr. Carson, at this stage of his life, wading into the filth and much and corruption.
It sounds to me as if some need to go back and read more carefully about The Emissary.
It seems to me that it’s more of a behind scenes unofficial, yet terribly important, role.
A minor quibble: “Soviet-era FSB” is a contradiction in terms. The FSB only came into existence after the dissolution of the Soviet Union, and is entirely an agency of the Russian Federation.
The final Soviet-era intelligence entity was the KGB, succeeding (in chronological order beginning in 1918) the Cheka, NKVD, GPU, OGPU, GUGB, NKGB, MGB, and MVB.
I realize it’s not important. I’m just a nitpicker.
Informative and helpful to know. My recall never went historically past their NKVD. It seems our own gov’t has integrated some of the worst practices of Cheka ( was it not created by Lenin using a nom de guerre? ) and their latest iteration FSB, appears downright civilized by comparison to our own secret police these days.
That said. I have zero desire to visit Dzerzhinsky Square – let alone D.C., for that matter!
Baron, I appreciate your nit-picky-ness, and it’s why I read and cite gates of vienna!
Thank you. Good to see you over here!
I will take this opportunity, Baron, to tell you how much I deeply appreciate your tireless efforts to keep the klieg lights on a dying Europe and beyond, as Sundance does here. Gates of Vienna is indispensable reading for many of us who understand that the world is no longer the large place many may consider it to still be…for good or, unfortunately as now, ill.
Western civilization and Christianity have two great and able sentries (I do not use that descriptive lightly) standing on the battlements.
God bless you, sir…and thank you.
Thank you very much. 🙂
My heartfelt pleasure….
Beyond stunning scholarship! Thank you for such a tremendous outline that clearly leaves no stone unturned as to the mess that exists and the treatments to cure our diseased government. I think you should be on Trump’s 2025 you certainly deserve a seat at that table for all you have done and what you have left in you! God Bless you Sundance you make God proud as his faithful servant!
very well said dory , and i agree !!
and oh my gosh … so much work to be done ..
deleted…wrongly placed reply
Vast research. Great names. Just read somewhere Kevin McCarty is fishing for something….( chief of staff?) UGH.
Hope our President reads this.
Thank you Sundance.
I once went fishing for trout in an old closed off pond. Yes you can get one there but you really don’t want to eat it. Same theory for DC pond scum critters.
👍 👍
McCarthy should be no where near the White House.
I haven’t heard that for months from Fox News initially
Melania and Barron also.
I saw a headline about it on CFP.
Sadly no longer a reliable news source, but I still scan them for interesting things of which there are plenty, given their volume.
I don’t like the way Kane writes his headlines without noting which are enemy sources – many sounding as if he takes them at face value. It’s dumb.
If he wants to secede Drudge he needs to be a lot more on message.
I’d choose Vance to take charge of State.
He will be Vice President.
He’ll be VP — not sure that computes, or am I missing something.
Superb, as always. Thank you for your efforts!
I can’t even allow myself to consider this until Trump actually is declared the winner and is actually seated as President. We must not only vote but also must talk to every single Trump supporter we know and make sure they’re going to vote. We all know they will attempt to steal it and from if they succeed, let it not be because we didn’t do everything we could to get out the vote for Trump.
I understand that concern. But to me it’s kind of like believing in jinxes, which I don’t.
There is so much work to be done, as some noted, that a head start doesn’t hurt.
Portugal?
Raised my eyebrows as well.
Either that was the Brown M&M test to see if we were really reading, or the equivalent of an informational Rod from God.
Portugal? Portugal is nearing a reproduction rate of zero. Does it even have a future?
Since 1492. It makes sense if you expand your thinking and reflecting. 👀
While I was surprised, I was not shocked once I reflected on unwritten, esoteric history. 👀
Whether intentional or not, SD made an esoteric revelation.
Yup. – The Portugese fleet, both mercantile and military were the global taxi service for Jesuit missionaries sent to infiltrate far flung and newly-discovered lands and therein weave intrigues (Think: ‘Color Revolution’…)
…- See eg, Japan at the end of the ‘Warring States’ into the early Tokugawa/Edo period. – Long story short, the Jesuits/Portugese managed to so thoroughly piss off Hideyoshi Toyotomi with their rampant spookery that he banned them from the country and eventually had a bunch of ’em whacked who refused to take no for an answer. -*Twice*.
When they later returned with the Spanish and attempted to try that sh*t on again, Tokugawa Ieyasu repeated Hideyoshi’s lesson for them and finally issued the decree that nominally closed Japan entirely to the outside world for nearly two and a half centuries (Chinese, Koreans and Dutch excepted) until Commodore Matthew Perry came calling in 1853.
On a side note, try this quick Pop Quiz:…
-Q1: Which religious order founded and runs Georgetown University?
-Q2: Of which university are Langley’s 7th Floor *traditionally* the alumni?…
…- Answers on a postcard.
And Lisboa is on fire at the moment.

Great article… Well thought out… And no Bushies… They are dead to us forever…
Who will be the pay back appointees and their jobs? It is always amazing the jobs that are distributed to people because they donated or worked for the campaign. DC is full of them.
Sundance, I consider myself a smart guy but several pages into your deep analytical dive into the identifying the enumerable corrupt institutional silos in our government and your rationale for staffing the people to begin the arduous process of rooting them out, I stop feeling smart and start feeling grateful that there are people like you with the brains and patriotism to advise our soon to be 47th President on the monumental task ahead.
Don’t sell yourself short, LTB. You just wrote a coherent 74-word sentence – no mean feat. I did need oxygen around the 50 mark, but I made it across the finish line.
Excellent, furyus! Excellent!!
it was that one comma that helped you across the finish line!
So you think a period or two might’ve helped my syntax?
No, not at all!
I was reading along , with your voice in my head (Lol), keeping right up with your typing!!!
and furyus’s comment was perfect, ‘cuz I was right there with him!
Thanks, furyus. That made me laugh!
I research repeatedly.
I cannot retain the list of all the bad actors and their innumerable malevolent deeds in my head!
It is overwhelming! 🥴😱
Agree.
I take notes. Lots of them. But then I can’t always find what I’m looking for. 😵💫 🤣
It is, Lorrie! It’s like visiting Dante’s nine circles of hell without a notebook.
Wow, that was a long digest.
So, I remit where is the
Good Ship Ruby right now.
Is it still off the coast of Kent?
Or is it making its way to Las Palmas?
What does Portugal say?
What does the US Geographical Administration embeds in the DofS/CIA have to say.
In no uncertain terms should the Ruby be allowed to sail to Las Palmas.
A two term presidency is unconstitutional.
No need for such a long article if we can argue three equal branches of government, neither having jurisdiction over another.
Let us start there.
Tell me about term limits on one branch.
And tell me how one branch puts term limits on another?
It’s the IC that has the wherewhittle to get into all three branches that is being discussed.The harm in unelected bodies like the FBI, CIA, NSA, etc……..the IC controlling all three branches by circling their wagons and totally protected from legal ramifications. The IC polices itself.
Understood, yet Congress’ term limits on a President has far-reaching hooks on an ability to disable this mess.
None, I should say.
Tony Buzbee for Chief Counsel of the FS.. err the FBI.
Hmm, I suppose he’ll be free for public service after he finishes frying P Diddy, as it appears he is well on his way to destroying. Thanks God!
Would love to see someone like Clay Higgins, per your suggestion, atop that “agency”. He could restore some of that vaunted Fidelity and Bravery so lacking, it would seem.
I am no fan of taking good candidates from their current jobs in the Congress..
Awesome! Well Done!!
Love Clay Higgens, Harriet Hageman, and all the rest!
This article deserves to be read 3, 4 or 5 times. I’m only on time number 1. But one question I have at the moment……Portugal?????
Oldest empire?
I knew a Portuguese OSS crossover years ago.
Tattered and VERY charming. Manners like a king.
The OSS threw him out. He kind of became a man w/o a country.
Never got paid.
Detailed and thoughtful; I only know of the topics on the surface.
If anyone close to DJT is digesting that article please make use of the research and reasoning behind each choice.
Excellent work.
Seems very likely Grenell will be SOS. Which is terrific
The State Department needs to be updated it’s a relic of the 1950s.
By updated I don’t mean diversity either.
.
There is only one reliable source to guide us to distinguish between good and evil, good conduct and bad, and that is the revealed word of the just and righteous God. Here are a few pointers from the Scriptures God caused men to record for us:
This advice was given to Moses about setting up his administration for his people.
Exodus 18:21-22
21 Moreover, look for able men from all the people, men who fear God, who are trustworthy and hate a bribe, and place such men over the people as chiefs of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties, and of tens. 22 And let them judge the people at all times. Every great matter they shall bring to you, but any small matter they shall decide themselves. So it will be easier for you, and they will bear the burden with you. (my emphasis)
Moses was given further instructions
Exodus 23:1-3, 6-8
“You shall not spread a false report. You shall not join hands with a wicked man to be a malicious witness. 2 You shall not fall in with the many to do evil, nor shall you bear witness in a lawsuit, siding with the many, so as to pervert justice, 3 nor shall you be partial to a poor man in his lawsuit.
. . . . .
6 “You shall not pervert the justice due to your poor in his lawsuit. 7 Keep far from a false charge, and do not kill the innocent and righteous, for I will not acquit the wicked. 8 And you shall take no bribe, for a bribe blinds the clear-sighted and subverts the cause of those who are in the right.
And again in Deuteronomy 16:19
You shall not pervert justice. You shall not show partiality, and you shall not accept a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise and subverts the cause of the righteous.
Solomon, Israel’s wisest king was an astute observer and warned
Proverbs 17:23
The wicked accepts a bribe in secret
to pervert the ways of justice.
Proverbs 29:12
If a ruler listens to falsehood,
all his officials will be wicked.
I have emphasized words in bold letters.
Notice how bribes regularly come up.
How many leaders and politicians would survive without bribes or “legalized bribes”?
Those who are lobbyists and many NGOs thrive on what is essentially bribery.
If we want good governance we need competent and reliable people for whom these criteria serve as a guide.
If you despise God and his word you do so at your own peril.
The IC has followed just the opposite of all your references; they do it for nefarious reasons, mainly too cover atrocities against children.
ALL the IC agencies have been developed for one sole reason to ‘protect’ evil, especially against children.
I only have one thing to say about all of that. Ken Paxton is ours, and you can’t have him. Texas needs Ken Paxton to step in for Greg Abbott as he terms out. It is important to the future of Texas to keep Paxton right where he is.
Ok fine, keep Paxton in Texas, give us Rudi Giuliani for AG
There is no such thing as “Terms out” in Texas.
yes there are term limits on Tx Governor.
Great analysis SD.
Cabinet meetings will be… interesting.
Gdmorning. Our duty is to enforce the constitution, period. EVERYONE in government are SERVENTS. WE THE PEOPLE are the boss. Just not in the last 150 years. We need to educate County by county, all of them in this great country, the people willing to step up and begin the total house cleaning. Power back to the states, senators, representatives back to their states, counties where the people can see them perform. I encourage those willing, as I am and many others, of doing our duties set forth by the founding fathers through Jesus. TacticalCivics.com brothers and sisters. It’s time, Trump needs our help. I agree Sundance, it’s going to take 15 yrs anyway, of fighting without blowing a gasket. God bless America. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
Total restoration!
And, imho, THE MOST important thing is for our country to turn back to God and His Laws.
I imagine the DS is hard at work already undermining and corrupting potential candidates for these positions. Trump may assemble a group of competent, informed, active and loyal lieutenants, but even a single turd in the punchbowl of their underlings and deputies will spoil the party.
Way to chew the thistles.
I feel the need to construct a flow chart. Thanks Sundance
What an outstanding piece! As cynical and skeptical as I am towards the institutions and creatures inhabiting Mordor On The Potomac, even I learned new and previously unimagined horrors from Sundance’s methodical review. Thank you!
Nunes has 10M shares of DJT to vest, he’ll have to get assurance that vesting continues, if he leaves DJT to join Trump 47 Administration.
FWIW – Ramaswamy has said that he’s “looking at” running for Ohio governor with a term to start Jan 2027.
So far Vivek has done nothing but talk. He would be better off doing a real job first to put money where that (admittedly wicked eloquent and on point) mouth has been.
Another resource for selections, The Federalist Society: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federalist_Society.
https://fedsoc.org/
I like Ken Paxton for AG. I’d also LOVE Rudi Giuliani for AG. Do you see a spot for Rudi in President Trump’s third term?
Wow, so masterful Sundance. From your post to President Trump and his trusted team’s ears in preparation for his next term. Praying for this from Canada ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
I like the adjustments.
Am equally convinced about Nunes and have been from the start. Best choice on the whole list for role proposition.
Very glad you pointed out Flynn’s flaws and reminded everyone. There is another one. At the same time Turkey was going on, he was also being paid by NSO (Pegasus software) that is a foteign spy software used on government related computers.
I’m still hesitant about Powell, but considering that your proposed role is subordinate to Paxton and Landry’s, I can understand. She can be monitored and controlled from there.
Will never trust Vivek.
I also like the idea of weaponizing the ODNI against the CIA and FBI.
Great analysis, conclusions and summation.
TY so much!
During Pres Trump’s first term he had to battle every front and still accomplished so much.
To assemble a team, as SD suggests, to take on or deconstruct the fourth branch, keeping the ankle biters and head hunters at bay or completely removing them, gives our president opportunity where he really shines –
Trade, treasury, and economy.
Lighthizer, Mnuchin, Ross, or their equivalents.
4 short years to repair our Republic. And, like SD mentioned, set cornerstones for our future.
Get ready to rumble…
where is a spot for Navarro? and while I like Guliani, he has some flaws similar to Flynn.
I wonder who you would recognize at this event, Sundance: https://brownstone.org/resistance/
I suspect there will be infiltrators…..
