Every time I gently send the warning signal about Donald Trump Jr, I get blasted with hate mail that essentially says Trump Jr must not be criticized because he is the heir apparent to the MAGA empire – or something similar.  The anger generally comes from the grifting enterprises who make money from Donald Trump’s political gravity.

To those voices, let me be as clear as I can be.  If you want me to hide the reality of how insanely naive Donald Trump Jr is about politics, then write him letters telling him to shut up, and don’t waste your typeset energy on me.   As long as Donald Trump Jr continues doing and saying stupid stuff because he believes he is politically smart (insert Fredo comparison here), I am going to continue sending warning flares about his naiveté.

I have been gentle and considerate of the ego and familial relationships.

I have avoided direct criticism around his gullibility taking Natalia Vladimirovna Veselnitskaya into Trump Tower in 2016 as part of the Fusion GPS operation to frame the Trump-Russia narrative.  I have avoided open criticism of his gullibility with Peter Thiel, Palantir Technologies (who, by the way, just had their CEO endorse Kamala Harris) and the JD Vance promotion.

I was kind and diplomatic in my attempts to point out that Donald “Fredo” Trump Jr, might just not possess the correct assembly of brain matter needed to see through counterintelligence operations.  After all, there is a reason why Eric was picked to run the Trump organization.  However, if those voices are going to paint me into a corner with stuff like this:…

… Then you are going to discover, I have no more tongue to bite.

Putting RFK Jr in any position inside the IC network is akin to giving Mary McCord and Andrew Weissman control of President Donald Trump’s teleprompter.  The Intelligence Community would relish, absolutely relish the opportunity to work with RFK Jr as the CIA director.

Amaryllis Fox is a former CIA undercover officer who transitioned into the political realm as the campaign manager for Robert F. Kennedy Jr after she met his son, Robert F Kennedy III at the ‘Burning Man’ event.  Do you remember the guy who leaked the recording of Donald Trump and RFK Jr speaking just before the RNC Convention?  Yeah, that was RFK III who leaked it (Amaryllis’s husband).

As the story is being told, Donald “Fredo” Trump Jr, is now negotiating the terms and conditions for the RFK JR endorsement of his father, possibly later this week.  If Fredo’s commentary about putting RFK Jr in charge of the CIA is accurate, and given the fact Fredo is part of the official transition team, and given the fact that Fredo was a big impetus for the JD Vance selection, and given the fact that everyone in the close orbit of Donald Trump keeps saying that Fredo wants to make federal politics his life and career after Dad; well, you can see where this is going.

In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the JoeBama Administration and Presidency.

“This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won’t be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.”

“But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.

For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Democrat operatives in key blue states are trying to keep RFK JR off the ballot (support Kamala).  Republican operatives in key red states are trying to keep REF JR on the ballot (support Kamala).  The objective of both professional D and professional R efforts are the same, support Kamala.

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. speaks to the media after leaving the Pennsylvania Judicial Center in Harrisburg after his hearing regarding his eligibility to be on the presidential ballot in Pennsylvania. Kennedy, whose flight was cancelled at the last minute, arrived in Harrisburg too late to testify.

.

I think President Trump is smart to keep distance, especially considering how RFK Jr recorded, leaked then exploited the RNC phone call with President Trump.  Let RFK Jr simply burn out naturally.  The Democrat supporters of RFK JR have returned to the DNC.  The Republican supporters of RFK JR are never-Trumpers; for them RFK JR in 2024 plays the role of Evan McMullin in 2016.

Let RFK Jr flutter in the wind as his value diminishes.  He will soon run out of money and exit the race without any assistance.

The media attempted to paint President Trump into a corner created by Brian Fallon and the Harris campaign, accusing President Trump of visiting a racist community in Michigan – quite silly really.  However, President Trump deftly handled the gotcha effort, thinking quick and turning the narrative back upon the reporter.

Reporter asked to respond to Harris Campaign accusation if Trump is only coming to Howell Michigan to appeal to the white supremacists in the area.  President Trump said: “Who was here in 2021?”  The reporter replied: “Joe Biden.”  President Trump: “Ha Ha, THANK YOU!” Mic Drop

Trump just nuked a reporter

Robert F Kennedy sent the following tweet message earlier today:

It looks increasingly like Robert F Kennedy notices the sand within his influence clock is running out fast.  At the same time RFK Jr is sending this message, his VP running mate Nicole Shanahan says the Kennedy campaign is considering dropping out of the race and endorsing Trump.

We continue referencing the key staffing challenges and positions for Trump 2025, in part to frame a proactive outline and in part to highlight the challenges within several positions that have been corrupted by the administrative state.   Today we look at Main Justice, the DOJ in DC.

Main Justice works closely with the FBI on what is loosely termed federal “law and order.”  We will address the FBI silo in another outline, choosing to focus exclusively on Main Justice first.  There are several positions within the DOJ that are familiar as a result of the modern weaponization that took place.

FBI HQ left, Main Justice HQ right

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.

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.

Tonight, Joe Biden will be delivering a speech at the DNC Convention opening night in Chicago, Illinois, and then departing the world of politics forever.

According to the rough sketch of the plan that’s visible, Joe Biden will abdicate all further responsibilities from the office of the presidency, thereby allowing Kamala Harris to run for Obama’s 4th term using the elevated platform of the presidency.  Joe Biden will become publicly invisible; Kamala Harris will step into the role of “unofficial president.”

To initiate the transition process, Joe Biden will deliver a speech tonight at the DNC where he will be praised for his altruism by the bringer of all true enlightenment, Barack Obama.  The praise for magnanimous Biden will be effusive as the page is turned from Term-3 to Term-4 in the Chicago DNC move.  Voters are irrelevant in this process and have been replaced by “influencers” and famous personalities who are tasked to give the optics the ballot teams need.

If you are watching any of the events unfold in Chicago, feel free to consider this an open discussion thread for anything related to the DNC convention tonight.
