It is all coming together nicely.  With Lt General Keith Kellogg special envoy to Ukraine and Russia, and with the appointment of Steven C. Witkoff to be Special Envoy to the Middle East, President Trump has essentially created a construct that works around the insufferable issues with a globalist State Department.

Senator Marco Rubio was nominated for Secretary of State, thereby removing him from the Senate Intelligence Committee and leadership role in Gang of Eight intel; but Trump simultaneously put in guardrails against the neocon tendencies of the Florida Senator and junior McCain.

Rubio doesn’t have Ukraine/Russia in his portfolio, nor does he have diplomatic or policy control over the Middle East.  President Trump has neutered the State Department, and the cherry on the proverbial cake is what he just announced.

Yes, President Trump has just confirmed that Ric Grenell will be the “Emissary” we have discussed.  Great job Mr President (for all the obvious reasons).

With Nunes leading a private intel advisory committee and with Grenell being the most powerful, agile and flexible person to run strategic foreign policy operations, the tentacle influence of the Deep State is removed from the Oval Office.  Now the official cabinet team can start pouring sunlight into the silos.

Facing depositions and the strong possibility of an embarrassment in court, ABC and George Stephanopoulos have agreed to apologize to President Trump and donate $15,000,000.00 to the President Trump library to settle a defamation lawsuit filed by President Trump.

(Via FOX) ABC News and their top anchor George Stephanopoulos have reached a settlement with Donald Trump in his defamation suit, which will result in the news network paying the president-elect $15 million.

The settlement was publicly filed on Saturday, revealing that the two parties have come to an agreement and avoided a costly trial. According to the settlement, ABC News will pay $15 million as a charitable contribution to a “Presidential foundation and museum to be established by or for Plaintiff, as Presidents of the United States of America have established in the past.” Additionally, the network will pay $1 million in Trump’s attorney fees.

Stephanopoulos and ABC News will issue statements of “regret” as an editor’s note at the bottom of a March 10, 2024, online article, about comments made earlier this year that prompted Trump to file a defamation lawsuit. (read more)

President Donald Trump has revealed something very important to those who fully understand the nature and construct of the DC Silo system. An outside government “Intelligence Advisory Board,” perhaps the ultimate cross-silo information system.

[SOURCE]

The approach of an Intelligence Advisory Board has the possibility to fracture the mechanism used by the DC Intelligence Community to isolate the president.

Within the various intel agencies, they use a process of building silos of information that are not shared outside the origination agency unless certain rules are followed.  This is a mechanism to retain control.

One of these control mechanisms is found in the classification process.  Each agency (colloquially called a ‘stakeholder’) has unilateral control over their unique contribution to a collective document or intelligence product.  Unless every stakeholder agrees to the declassification, the intel product is withheld and remains “siloed”.  That’s just one example, there are hundreds more.

There are various soundbites, clickbait headlines, column inches and video streams filled with those on the political left waxing philosophically about the threat President Trump represents to “institutional norms” in his second term.

You know exactly the reason why.  It is not a surprise to see media and bureaucratic defenders of the FBI, DOJ and Intelligence Community throwing out wild accusations and fears of what President Trump and his cabinet might do.

For the sake of this outline, let us quickly revisit a key inflection point when these “institutions” were given power over We The People.

During the rushed debate over the Patriot Act, was when we first heard political officials talking about the importance of “continuity of government.”

Many of us recognized what these DC voices were describing was a construct of a post-911 government that would exist and maintain itself without the elected representatives of WeThe People.

The intelligence gathering and homeland security system put into place after the Patriot Act was passed, is a bureaucratic administrative state without the presence of elected officials controlling the apparatus. That leads to the following question:

How can a constitutional republic function without elected officials in control of it?

That question is at the heart of our current situation.

That question is at the epicenter of this “new American democracy” that no one seems to understand.

The simple answer is it cannot.

We have been fighting this three-headed IC monster (DHS, DNI, DOJ-NSD) ever since.

As noted yesterday, President Trump has announced his full support for the International Longshoremen’s Association (ILA) trade union position in defense of their members. [SEE HERE]

Today, ILA Executive Vice-President Dennis Daggett releases a statement following his meeting with President Donald Trump.

To many people this confrontation over foreign ownership of critical port infrastructure seems detached and complicated when contrast against efficiency, lower prices for transportation and, essentially, a vital national interest. However, in the bigger picture President Trump has been consistent with a position that U.S. companies and labor organizations must look out for American interests first and foremost.

The chase for price, cost and Total Cost of Production (TCP) has led to our nation losing jobs, losing wealth, losing manufacturing capability and ultimately losing control over our own vital interests. The prior chase for less costly goods was a road paved with intentions that ultimately created negative outcomes for the American people (ex. The Rustbelt).

The International Longshoremen’s Association (ILA) and the US Maritime Alliance (USMX) have until January 15 to agree on a new contract. This is the result of a temporary deal reached in October.

President Trump announced his support for the workers’ position following a meeting with Harold Daggett, the president of ILA, and Dennis Daggett, the union’s executive vice president.

“I’ve studied automation and know just about everything there is to know about it. The amount of money saved is nowhere near the distress, hurt, and harm it causes for American Workers, in this case, our Longshoremen,” Trump said on Truth Social.

Notice how the media always present the verbiage of the dockworker’s employers as “employers’ group USMX,” without actually noting the employers’ group are the port owners, multinational shipping conglomerates and as a consequence, foreign countries.

In material fact, most critical ports in the USA are owned by foreign entities.  As a result, the ILA are pushing back against the ideological, political and financial interests of mostly foreign entities (USMX).

The “No Labels” group is the modern spin on the term “UniParty.”  These are the professionally political minds that see everything good about a singular ideological perspective in Washington DC that grows the administrative state and lives in a stratum far above the sheeple voters.

Perhaps the most transparently obvious part of Alaska Senator Lisa Murkowski holding this mindset, is the moment at 4:26 when she talks about being responsible to the voters, “what’s this all about,” Murkowski notes with contempt.

“I think we are getting a little bit of a preview now, of what it means to be allegiant to party,” Murkowski continues.  Where “allegiant to party” actually means accountable to the voters’ expectations.

How is this supposed to help the institutional operation of Washington DC, if the politicians are suddenly accountable to the voters, instead of the bureaucracy that provides the political influence and affluence. Murkowski is genuinely puzzled by this new era of political expectation represented by President Donald Trump. WATCH (prompted):

.

What Murkowski fails to understand is that President Trump is not a cause of her republican party failure, President Trump is our response to her republican party failure.  President Trump represents our weapon, her last chance, her choice.

“Get in line” accurately interpreted means do what needs to be done to support the vessel, President Trump, that we have overwhelmingly elected to address our issues.  No apologies, get in line -get right- is exactly correct.

President Trump pokes Jim Cramer a little bit in the middle of this interview as questions are asked about predictable investments and the stock market.   After signing the guest registry at the NYSE, CNBC pundit Jim Cramer gets the opportunity to interview President Trump about the economic and banking policy to be expected in the second term.

Those who follow the specific outcomes of MAGAnomic policy are very optimistic about the future.  The economic forecast for stockholders, banks and even cryptocurrency balance sheets are going to be very strong for the next several years.  It is only through an intense growth period that the USA can expand the economy enough to begin reducing the deficit and getting out of the debt spiral.  WATCH: 

.

Nice to see JD Vance in the picture.  If MAGAnomics is going to survive as policy beyond Trump, it is going to take JD Vance to believe in it and reject all the other voices in his ear.   Donald J Trump investing time, a lot of time, in JD Vance is an investment in our future.

The Office of the Inspector General for the DOJ (DOJ-OIG) has outlined an 88-page report on events around the January 6th, 2021, DC protest. The report is AVAILABLE HERE.

FBI Director Chris Wray announced his decision to resign from office one day before the Inspector General report was released. The report shows that 26 FBI Confidential Human Sources (CHSs) were used officially and unofficially during the J6 events. Four entered the Capitol building, another 13 entered the restricted area around the building.

[OIG REPORT HERE]

The report found that no official FBI employees participated in the events, but 26 confidential human sources were used.  The media are jumping on the part about no FBI employees being present in order to call those who view the FBI as facilitating and coordinating the events of J6 as “conspiracy theorists.”  However, the FBI’s use of CHSs is downplayed and dismissed.

A major topline takeaway from the report in general is how much effort the FBI put into investigating the assembly pre J6.   When you read the IG explanation of the CHSs [Page 50 and beyond] you get a really good feel for how the FBI was focused and positioned before the day unfolded.
