It should not come as a surprise to see the same methods deployed against President Trump in 2024 that were used by the FBI in 2016. The difference is now that President Trump understands the full power of his office in the security clearance process and that he doesn’t need the FBI.
In 2016 the FBI used their power to conduct security clearances as a tool to stall and block President Trump appointments. Historically this is one of the ways a very corrupt and political FBI interfere in any system that might be against the interests of the Intelligence Community that controls them. However, in 2024 President-Elect Trump and his transition team have already taken a different approach.
First the report:
WASHINGTON DC – An official at FBI headquarters in Washington is warning that the bureau’s security clearance division is politicized and can’t be trusted to screen President-elect Donald Trump’s nominees for top administration jobs.
The allegations of political bias at the FBI’s security division, or SecD, were revealed in a protected whistleblower disclosure sent to the House Judiciary Committee, which The Washington Times reviewed.
The official said the security clearance process has been “contaminated by the political agendas of [security division] officials and other executives in the FBI.” (more)
This is not any earth-shattering revelation. We painstakingly discussed this in a multitude of prior research discussions. The motive of the Whistleblower to come forth now, is likely because President Trump is already working around the problem.
WASHINGTON DC – President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team is skipping the protocol of using the FBI to conduct background checks, according to a report.
Instead, the president-elect’s team is turning to private companies to vet administrative appointees, people familiar with transition planning told CNN. Trump has criticized the FBI for its slow investigation process and feared it would delay his ability to roll out his agenda.
A security clearance is needed for some Cabinet positions, such as attorney general, and the process of obtaining one includes an FBI background check.
Dan Meyer, a national security attorney, told CNN Trump’s mistrust of the FBI and the deep state has made him go completely rogue. [They] “don’t want the FBI to coordinate a norm. They want to hammer the norm,” Meyer told CNN.
The Trump transition team’s decision to bypass the FBI background check comes as Trump has nominated former Reps. Matt Gaetz and Tulsi Gabbard for attorney general and National Intelligence director, respectively — both controversial picks. (more)
Because President Trump is making civics great again, it’s worth reminding everyone that President Trump has unilateral decision-making authority to grant anyone a security clearance. The President (atop the executive) can give anyone he chooses a top-secret security clearance status, simply by saying this person has top-secret security clearance. Yes, it really is that easy.
The President can choose his advisors and choose to share anything – even the most top-secret information in the country – with his advisors and cabinet members. That’s what we elect him/her to do; to use his/her judgement to make decisions.
This is one of the powers within the office that cannot be challenged by any other silo, branch or institution. The security clearance rules are what President Trump says the security clearance rules are.
There is no outside silo in the Executive Branch, who can supersede the decision of President Trump.
I would think most of President Trump’s controversial Appointees, (SECDEF, DNI, FBI) have already gone through the process of a TS-SCI Clearance. Based on their prior military service. All, save of course for the most controversial, Mat Gaetz. Who may have completed the process, as a newly elected member of the House?
In that case, the contractor assigned to conduct Background Searches, Interviews of friends and family members. As part of the SF-86 paperwork, has already been conducted, it just needs to be Updated (5yrs for TS).
Eric Swalwell and Diane Feinstein have set a very low bar for a TS-SCI Clearance. . .
Add Adam Schiffless.
I believe as member of one of the committees he was on, Gaetz has already gone thru it.
I suspect this isn’t so much about the headline nominees we have all been focused on.
Remember, an incoming admin appoints 4,000-10,000 ‘new’ employees to D.C. when they come in, and thats probably the ones the FBI WOULD be slow walking,…if they could, …but they can’t,…cause PDJT won’t LET them, HAH, overwhelmed with winnamins, can’t help it, I feel JOY!
I hear 3 dog nite’s “Joy to the World” in my head
I hear it too, my generation, 1971. ‘I can hear you calling’ Very soon after my Army discharge
Now I hear it?
Remember going to see them in concert at the original Atlanta Stadium in August 1972.
CHEERS, Boogy! 🍷
Jerimiah was a BullFrog…
Correct. House Armed Services Committee that you and someone else noted.
Gaetz may have gone through the process as a member of the House Armed Services Committee.
No, see my above comment.
Eric Swalwell? So having a Chinese Communist Spy as your Happy Time girlfriend is a National Security Risk?
Hard to believe that could have got past the high standards of the Dem(ented) Party and their FBI/DOJ Cheerleaders.
Don’t forget Dianne Feinstein’s Communist Chinese chaufeur.
Does this explain the accusations against Pete Hegseth?
Those ‘case closed’ accusations came from the IC mouthpiece WaPo.
The IC doesn’t want Hegseth in that position.
Yes, but I’m wondering if the plan to use it as a security clearance denial or delay to prevent it?
“Eric Swalwell and Diane Feinstein have set a very low bar for a TS-SCI Clearance. . .”
Yup. Just the way the FBI likes it – compromising information equals the ability to control politicians.
Not the case.
Secret clearances are handed out like candy.
But TS-SCI? I can’t speak for other departments, but I know for a fact that DoD actively worked to reduce TS-SCI clearances over the last 10 years. Whether it was a risk management decision or a political decision (silos) – there was an effort to markedly reduce access.
For precision: SCI is not an information classification. SCI access refers to specialized information (for example a unique collection system; can’t go into more details here!). Dedicated systems and spaces are used to access this information. Qualification can involve a polygraph – and that itself is another way to slow the system down. One organization I worked for the polygraph pipeline backed up over two years.
Recall in PDJT’s first term all the game playing that was going on vis the Gang of Eight/psychopath Adam Schiff over “Russia” evidence and SCIF access that Devin Nunes had to navigate?
Fun,Fun,Fun!
In 2017, President-elect Trump 45 walked into the DC hornets nest, unprotected, and was stung a thousand times.
In 2025, President-elect Trump 47 rolls into the DC hornets nest, driving a fleet of John Deere 600 pesticide sprayers!
A “Bee Keeper” President.😉
A “Bee Keeper” President.
You don’t need pesticide. A good flame thrower cooks up hornets better.
Plus it is way more fun!!

and President Trump ❣️
The FBI was rotten from the beginning. (This list does not contain the numerous FBl ties to Mafia criminals and the infamous Whitey Bulger)
They’ve Done This Before: Five Past Cases of FBI Incitement
https://revolver.news/2021/06/five-cases-of-fbi-incitement/
All the alphabet agencies are enemies of the People. We did not ask for them to be formed, and we don’t elect their officials.
So true. The FBI started as and continues to be a Mobsters funded by the American Taxpayer.
And the number of B.S. T.V shows to promote these scumbags is sickening.
There is much more to the assassination of General Patton that is not for this discussion. I posted it for the roots of the IC and their corruption/criminality from the beginning. Rotten from the start, rotten to the core.
[The first is Douglas Bazata, an Office of Strategic Services agent in World War II, the forerunners of the CIA. He claimed that he, an OSS assassin, was asked to kill Patton by OSS chief Gen. William “Wild Bill” Donovan. The order was the culmination of a long-running plot that had started as a non-lethal “stop Patton” plan.Later, in interviews with me before his death in 1999, Bazata enlarged that scenario, claming that he, along with a Russian accomplice, set up the Dec. 9 “accident,” and that others — he believed Soviets — had finished the job in the hospital.
Though it is not well known, the OSS had an alliance with the NKVD, the Soviet spy network, during and after the war.]
[The other witness was Stephen J. Skubik, a Counter Intelligence Corps agent attached to Patton’s armies. After the war he continued working as a CIC agent amongst Soviet-dominated Ukrainians whom, he said, warned that Stalin had put Patton on a NKVD hit list. When he reported the plot to Donovan, the OSS chief jailed him. Following Patton’s death, he had to flee Germany in fear for his life.”]
Was Patton killed?
https://nypost.com/2010/12/19/was-patton-killed/
Security clearance has little do with national security and a lot to do with power, prestige, influence and protection from legal liability, i.e., prosecution for perjury, fraud, money laundering, civil rights violations, criminal conspiracy, sedition and treason.
Yes, but a lot who may not see orange jump suits, will never the less lose status and income streams, and future employment opportunities, if they have their security clearances revoked.
AS PDJT has ultimate authority, what happens if PDJT intervenes directly, and says a Senator or Representative (like say, Schiff) is NOT to be given a clearance?
Without that clearance, he can not serve on the intel committee.
Would the Dems or Schiff have any recourse?
Wouldn’t that be glorious!
One has to know that Schiff is going to be appointed to the SSCI. I would love to see President Trump stop that in it’s tracks by denying him a security clearance.
Please PRESIDENT TRUMP, Sir. Keep Shifty Schiff off the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence if at all possible!
thhat would be almost as much fun as grounding their airforce jet while they are on the way to the airport to go on a junket(vaca)
Schiff clearly lied about Russia, Russia.
He is not trustworthy. I personally think he is a psychopath.
PDJT will have to work with Thune on this one. This is new territory in some respects. That said, Congressional reps caught up in sexual scandals have been forced to resign. Find the grounds to do the same for folks like Schiff who abused their duties/offices – these folks all swear to uphold certain values. An obvious complement to all of this will be an un-relenting media campaign that exposes these kind of people.
Haven’t researched this myself: what are the options available on the Senate, Executive and public plates for removing bad actors? Seems to me a mix can be deployed.
Dutchman: That’s my point. Security clearance should have one purpose: To enable a gubmint employee or elected official to do his or job. Instead, having security clearance became a status symbol, a shield of protection (from outside scrutiny) and a ticket to higher income.
That’s not correct.
Clearances are granted based on need-to-know.
Security groups based on roles/job descriptions can be built in advance and given to each person during their onboarding process. For Senators, additional clearance could be given based on their committee assignments. So, for example you could have a security group for ‘Senators on oversight Committee’ or Senators on Armed Services committee as groups that could be assigned to each Senator and a core Senate group for those not on specific committees. Again, it is based on a need to know basis and not access to the whole database. Regular audits should include looking at what the Senators in these groups are looking at- what screens did they visit which would be captured in an audit trail and could be queried. Having this functionality would and does discourage people from abusing the system access as they would now be taking a tangible risk of discovery.
Isn’t that the same thing as weaponizing the system?
I fully understand the resident anger and need to purge/prosecute lawbreakers.
But this as a next next in the escalating nomination battle is dangerous in my opinion.
Maybe a demonstration instance of Presidential power to back off the DS/IC? But a generalized tool? I’m not sure where that leads but my instincts are that if this is institutionalized the Republic suffers in the long-run.
This all strikes me as a microcosm of the leaker problem both sides have worked to control with dubious success.
The options for shedding the system of folks who break the law are pretty clear. The problem of addressing perverted classification and access approval processes it seems to me parallels what is being done at the various executive departments. Put people in place who are trustworthy and are empowered to clean up the aberrations/violators. I’m not advocating this, but the person in charge can immediately relocate an individual to a different job – it arrives as an offer to move to a different job. The person can accept or quit. There remains the option of HR/EO actions for these people that has to be accounted for – which itself becomes a burden. That will happen.
It’s a really difficult challenge. Especially under the current time demands in play.
We all know various/multiple organs of gov’t have been politically weaponized.
We all know this weaponization has to be dismantled.
We all know the criminal aspects of this have to be prosecuted.
What is less certain is how the system integrity should be restored. How should those we know were party to the weaponization but did not break the law be handled? At the C&C level this can be done by moving people to new jobs, reductions in force, promotions to symbolic jobs, no promotions/pay increases/ bonuses, increased pressure, over bearing workloads – there are a lotta options that can be used – to include relocation to the boonies.
To be clear Dutch: I can definitely see removing clearances as an option. I get uneasy when that is used as a generalized tool.
Forgot: the political appointee part of this is a freebee! New administration just moves these people along to new opportunities.
It would be glorious—at least for a minute. The problem is, unless you build a huge case for it, which could be easily done (then why not prosecute—maybe to not look like a banana republic, which is what they will say and claim, even though that’s exactly what they did, sorry, not sorry for the weave 😂) the precedent will be set. Just like the democrats set it in the senate for 51 votes—not 60, it’ll come back to haunt us. They’ll use it indiscriminately and without cause (see all the fake cases against the president!) and people like Nunes would never get in. I’d proceed with caution on this one.
Rituals to confer power onto the FBI that is not legislated to be theirs.
And making bank, once out of office.
Jaye: You got it. All about the Benjamins.
Apologies. Couldn’t be more off the mark. Clearance and classification are two sides of the same coin.
I seem to recall many on this board getting upset when classified information was leaked during the early months of PDJT’s first term.
The need for secrecy in operations/communications reaches back thousands of years. Launch codes, strike timelines, weapon system capabilities, crypto keys, foreign capabilities….and on and on. Access has to be limited to “need-to-know”. The Walkers of the world create inordinate damage – especially to the operators at the pointy end.
How about all the recent requirements for protection/access to privacy information?
The problem with classification has been the abusive tactic of classifying information that really doesn’t fit any specifications listed in covering Presidential EOs. That automatically reduces the “airing” such information can receive in the open hustings of public debate.
Don’t toss the classified baby out with the bathwater! The clearance granting process is very important. Restoring the integrity of the process is what is at stake. Is there need-to-know? Have all potential avenues for blackmail been investigated? Are the actions of those holding clearances monitored…sometimes even approved (for example, someone with TS-SCI suddenly visiting China)? Are the folks who build/maintain/operate the databases and communications behind all of this trusted?
So true PJ, especially your last paragraph:
“Don’t toss the classified baby out with the bathwater! The clearance granting process is very important. Restoring the integrity of the process is what is at stake. Is there need-to-know? Have all potential avenues for blackmail been investigated? Are the actions of those holding clearances monitored…sometimes even approved (for example, someone with TS-SCI suddenly visiting China)? Are the folks who build/maintain/operate the databases and communications behind all of this trusted?”
I say this as someone who was a system administrator for HIPAA Privacy/Security who implemented these processes for a 6 hospital health system. If the government could mandate these regulations for health care organizations, We The People should be able to expect this of our government as a minimum standard for national security.
Cleta Mitchell sad:
“Obama didn’t have the FBI vet his appointments because they were all corrupt.
Trump will not have his appointments vetted by the FBI because the FBI is corrupt.”
Steam Roll em President Trump. Make America Great Again!🇱🇷🇱🇷🙏🏻🙏🏻😀😀❤️
Speak softly and carry a big stick. Start rescinding the IC security clearances and fire them. No mercy.
This is what is known as the Argentine Method of Good Governance.
Milei was just visiting Mar A Lago and surely discussed best practices with President Trump.
I hear chainsaws in the distance.
I’m collecting photos that exemplify “the cat that ate the canary”. The bottom picture of President Trump is my best one yet!
You know that the Gaetz ethics report says nothing, right? If it didn’t, it would have been released, leaked, etc. by now. They would have acted on it already. It is just like, Russia, Russia, Russia, where the accusation is the crime. I call BS on it. And frankly, I don’t give a damn either way.
Absolutely correct. Here is the local NW Fla. article that explains exactly what happened to Matt Gaetz and his father.
Sounds to me like the FBI and possibly CIA, put this extortionist up to it, to create a cloud over Gates.
Launching any type of investigation on young congressmen is their weapon of choice. The narrative spin soon follows and voila, any power the congressional Rep may want as oversight on the IC is quickly neutered.
https://www.nwfdailynews.com/story/news/courts/2022/08/22/alford-sentenced-five-years-attempted-extortion-gaetz-family/7864230001/
Totally unsurprising. Evil may have received a check in its forward progress, but it won’t give up.
HALLELUJAH!
How does anyone think Obama got away with what he did? By Executive powers.
Even when he was slapped down by the USSC, he still kept doing what they said he couldn’t. Biden as well.
“There is no outside silo in the Executive Branch, who can supersede the decision of President Trump.”
This is good news indeed. And here I thought the leftists had already destroyed all of that.
Tear ’em a new one, Mr. President!
That’s a perfect picture of President Trump to follow the line:
“The security clearance rules are what President Trump says the security clearance rules are.” 👍🏻
Thank you Mr President-Elect for giving us these very fine civics lessons. And retuning our government to the people and the election process.
Ban all government employee unions – they are destroying us from within.
President Kennedy signed Executive Order 10988 in 1962. This order permitted federal employees to form unions and bargain collectively, but it did not grant the right to bargain over wages, which remain under Congress’ control. Unions could not compel federal employees to join, and they cannot strike. This order was strengthened by President Nixon, and finally given a statutory basis by Congress in the Civil Service Act of 1978.
Banning public employee unions definitely needs to be a part of the control plan coming out of the Department of Government Efficiency recommendations for sustaining the improvements implemented.
Ya know… if you read the Old Testament scriptures there are plenty of examples of God commanding a wipeout of entire communites AND their animals because they were so evil. If anyone doesn’t have the stomach for a merciless house cleaning, they need to go back to their Bibles. Just sayin’.
You remind me of the delightful (and blessedly short) book of Jonah. He was ordered to Nineveh by God to warn them of their total destruction by Him if they did not change their sinful ways. Jonah, after much rebellion, finally did arrive in Nineveh & warned the people of their impending demise if they did not turn around (translated as repent) & walk with God. The populace, & even their ruler(s), turned around and demonstrated their sincerity by donning sackcloth & sitting in ashes. Even every single animal wore sackcloth & sat in ashes. Now that’s a picture! God was pleased, Nineveh was saved. I’m good with a far more merciless house cleaning than lucky Nineveh. 🙏❤️🇺🇲

This kind of FBI we don’t need or want! I would sooner trust Dillinger and Baby-Face Nelson than this bunch!
Gaetz is “controversial”, only because the lame stream media and Democrats say so.
They no longer have seat at the table.
Dan Meyer, a national security attorney, told CNN Trump’s mistrust of the FBI and the deep state has made him go completely rogue. [They] “don’t want the FBI to coordinate a norm. They want to hammer the norm,” Meyer told CNN.
————————————-
“I said in my haste, all men are liars.”
~ King David in Psalm 116:11
This Dan Meyer character surely is a liar, for his words twist the truth into a lie. Trump’s not stopping the FBI from doing good. He’s just not allowing them to do bad.
“made him go completely rogue” ?
Manure sure is cheap and plentiful these days.
BTW, this process was started by Ike. It isn’t carved in stone.
The Walz are closing in. I wonder what Merrick Garland is thinking right now. Him and Christopher Wray. Their entire strategy to avoid arrest was to stay in power. They now have 64 days to set their affairs in order and then wait for a knock at the door.
Battering ram, flash bangs, 3 am. Turnabout is fair play.
It’s amazing how many commentators from the left on discussion boards keep saying Trump is breaking the law or it’s against the Constitution in by-passing FBI vetting.
The fact is, there is NO LAW! Nothing in the Appointments Clause of the Constitution (Article II, Section 2, Clause 3) states such.
FBI vetting was introduced by Eisenhower and all it is, is an “established procedure” … nothing more.
What’s shocking is that there is an FBI whistleblower. I hope he survives his suicide
IMMEDIATELY REVOKE SECURITY CLEARANCES FOR:
– 51 Intell Stooges who lied
– John Brennan / Comey
– Peter Strzok / Lisa Paige
– Chris Wray
– 27 DOJ attorneys who WIPED their Federal smartphones used in the Mueller witch hunt
– etc.
Based on their own behavior during and after President Trump’s first term, I can think of a few past presidents who might need to have their security clearances at least reviewed for continuation.
That’s a good start…let’s see: Cheney (Dick and Liz if they still or did have them), maybe the Obama clan. I’m sure there are more, but I don’t want to write a book.
More winaminns!!
PDJT: Nuts.
Let the Battle of the Bulge commence!
Could President Trump just please stop the leakers within his team! The leaking on Pete Hegseth is showing that someone there wants a “General” in place to keep the status quo.
If this isn’t handled with a sledge hammer it’s going to be another ugly 4 years. It HAS to end today. Anyone heard anything towards this?
Generals, I have it on good authority, are primarily ceremonial and eye candy.
The doers are the Colonels.
(Yes, beside the point — but maybe someone else can squeeze it for some substance.)
Based on 12 years of working for a defense contractor, which included work meetings with Colonels & Generals:
Colonels like to think they are the Doers, but only because they think that’s their path to get promoted to General.
Do we really need SEVENTEEN Intell agencies?
Absolutely not!!
I’m sure the puke Rs in the senate will buck and say they need FBI clearance on xyz or they’re voting no.
Can he unilaterally take the clearance away? For the likes of Pelosi and Schiffty?
I love it in the hands of Trump, but not so much in the hands of Biden or Obama. So it’s okay for Biden to give XI a clearance to see our nuclear secrets and Wadda ya gonna do ‘bout it?
I’m missing a piece here.
Don’t get me wrong, I completely agree Trump should take full advantage to help clean up the mess. But how is a President like Obama prevented from turning over our country to the enemy?
Differently from how he and Biden did allow the enemy to have carte blanche how?
No one has said this yet, so let me be the first.
My greatest fear is that there are RINOs in both the Senate and the House that are really Dems in disguise because in certain red states that is the only way they can get elected, and that there might be some who will switch parties or go Independent (but caucus with Dems) and convert either the House or the Senate to Dem control. That’s how much some of them hate President Trump.
You know some of the Senate names – Murkowski, Collins, Crapo, Mullins, Cornyn. There are so many in the House it’s not worth listing them.
A RINO is, by definition, a Democrat.
Thanks SD! The FBI should not be acting as security system administrators for others. Invites abuse and the tendency for blanket approvals for those who do not need it. (Brennan still has clearance which should have been terminated long ago).
Perhaps the PDJT admin needs to consider requiring that which was required by the government for health care organizations for protecting confidential information under the HIPAA Security Rule.
The access to the NSA database is now so widespread and so abused, the only way to start fixing it is to do a major reset. Purge all access to the NSA database with the exception of several key trusted high level individuals and have all users reapply for access permission based on need to know. Brace for the screams.
Only then can a credible regular process (audit) be required. This is where AI could help to benefit our security.
Block any portal to the NSA database that exists. It sounds like this database is within an application used for queries so I suspect there is a central way to rescind access centrally.
Those who reapply for access permission are granted access by individual user, not a company as they will surely illegally share passwords. An end date needs to be assigned to each user that will automatically stop their access based on that date which depends on their job role and scope of work. Also indirectly assigns an end date for their project thereby increasing efficiency.
The access needs to be only on a need to know basis- only screens that will support the work to be done- nothing more.
Only high level staff, approved by POTUS/designee should have access to the whole database.
If someone has previously been given access and resigns or is terminated, their access needs to be removed within 24 hours of that termination of employment unless otherwise approved by POTUS/designee)
Regular and frequent audits including IF users are accessing data screens beyond their security access approval. (possible if someone with higher access has shared their password). This is a key as it will help identify those who are abusing security access and should be grounds for employment termination. Also need audit trail capability for this and to audit queries run by user identified.
There are numerous more steps to actually implementing this, but this is the general idea.
Where did Admiral Rogers go?

There is ample precedent for Trump’s end run around corrupt FBI which otherwise would slow-roll clearances. In 1992 when Bill Clinton came in, many (maybe most) of the WH staff and Schedule C appointees could not obtain a Top Secret or higher clearance due to drug use. He hired them notwithstanding.
When I worked for Ford’s OVP (1973! yikes) most of the staff were waived in w/o clearances.
ROLMAO… ice tea went down the wrong pipe.. See my happy dance.. He can giveth and TAKE AWAY…lol..
Just declassify TF out of all these documents.
“This is one of the powers within the office that cannot be challenged by any other silo, branch or institution. The security clearance rules are what President Trump says the security clearance rules are.”
Sincerely,
The US Supreme Court
Regrettably, Members of Congress and Senators are not required to have security clearances notwithstanding they are privy to sensitive matters of national interest. A number of posters here are under the impression they are but it is a separation of powers issue; one branch (executive) cannot control the other two outside of annual appropriations.
1. Defund the FBI. Fire everyone and raze the buildings.
2. Outsource all law enforcement duties to county sheriff’s departments all over the country.
3. Prosecute ALL former FBI personnel who obstructed/disobeyed President Trump.
Problem solved.
Anybody slow rolling security clearances for President Trump’s appointees can expect to find themselves on the unemployment line on January 21.
Trump likes to tout that he has the ability to get along with who ever. The democrats are Totalitians in very way. Trump needs to treat them as such.
I’m guessing the President’s authority includes members of Congress? A blanket removal of all security clearances for Democratic members of Congress would be a good shot across the bow. Then take away clearances for all out of office folks from the DOJ, FBI, CIA, Military, and all of the other IC agencies. Let them re-apply it is so important they have a security clearance. Hardball can be played both ways starting 1/20/2025. Sad that our own citizens are out to destroy America and the Constitution.
I like the way you think.

Hey Sundance,
In lieu of what we all hope is retribution/justice coming post 1/20/25 and in looking back at your many FIB threads, I wonder if you might consider reposting or commenting on this one as it deals with seditious conspiracy and if in your opinion do you see a possible boomerang coming?
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2023/05/04/merrick-garland-delivers-speech-following-conviction-of-four-j6-defendants-for-sedition-seditious-conspiracy/#more-246346
18 US Code 2384: If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both. (link)
Specifically, do you think if PT utilizes Tulsi at ODNI, waltz at NSA, Gaetz at DOJ and Patel at FIB to investigate some of the things you mention in prior threads that there is a chance we will see many indictments for seditious conspiracy in 2025/2026?
The FIB was created by executive order in 1908 and seems it could be shut down by executive order. And it should be.
The ass pain those FBI people are feeling must be epic. I love it.
Wait until he starts revoking clearances, lol.
Constipation laxatives and hemorrhoid medicine sales must be spiking.
And I hear there’s a run on bleach bit, hammers, and new cell phones…
Wonder who has been doing their clouding. lol
Personally, I run bleachbit every time I close my non-google browser. It’s free (shareware) and effective.
Except it’s illegal to do that to government owned information…
….since when do dims care?
Deep staters don’t care about legal. They only care about CYA.
likely the Clintons took care of this on Election Day but the swamp riggers figured they could repeat 2020. They had better clear out the info now. Guess that means there will be mysterious bombings at a lot of data storage facilities between now and 1/20/25!

Maybe somebody will have the ability and knowledge to return integrity to the FBI and to have it function in its true role to safeguard America. That is going to take a strong, knowledgeable, and skilled leader.
Start-from-the-bottom!!!
America First
No returning integrity to a corrupt organization.
Find new good people earnestly willing to do the work
And if that cannot happen in one year, then it needs to be burned to the ground and then restarted with all new personnel.
He should have a new FBI building with new computer credentials and only allow those he wants to work move there and cut the power to the old building
You’re nice. I’d suggest burning it down and salting the earth.
You just had to bring in the Moloch worshipping Canaanite, Phoenician descended Carthaginians into it, huh? 😃 😀 😄
Well, it is an apt metaphor for sure! 😉
Hahaha…no pretending — The Treehouse Way.
It is concrete. Even a nuke will only burn it if it is inside the firball. It needs to be demolished.

Set up a Merch stand selling MAGA sledgehammers.
MAFA. Make America Free Again.
They are already getting a new FBI building, a very expensive one.

Yes absolutely do that
