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.

MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell just didn’t know what to do with Republican Senator from Tennessee Bill Hagerty, after he outlined all the motives and justifications for President Trump to appoint Matt Gaetz for U.S. Attorney General.

Senator Hagerty cites examples of the Main Justice targeting of President Trump from the 2016 campaign all the way through the IC manipulation of the Hunter Biden laptop story in 2020, to the continued use of Lawfare to target President Trump throughout 2024.  Of course, that background makes the appointment of Matt Gaetz understandable.  WATCH:

.

The Democrats destroyed political norms, weaponized agencies and violated the law. The Democrats will now face the consequences.

Accordingly, President Trump has provided a bold litmus test for Republicans in the Senate, they are either with the American people or they stand in the sunlight of a transparent and intentional disconnect. (more…)

Sauer did a great job arguing ‘Absolute Immunity’ and ‘Plenary Power’ on President Trump’s behalf in the Supreme Court.

President Trump has announced the nomination of Dean John Sauer for the position of U.S. Solicitor General.

The U.S. Solicitor General is the fourth highest ranking member within the Dept of Justice. The task of the Office of the Solicitor General (OSG) is to supervise and conduct government litigation in the United States Supreme Court. All Supreme Court litigation is channeled through the Office of the Solicitor General and is actively conducted by the Office. The United States government is involved in approximately two-thirds of all the cases the U.S. Supreme Court decides each year.

In what can only reasonably be described as a MOAB targeted directly to Main Justice, President Trump has nominated Republican Congressman Matt Gaetz to be United States Attorney General.

[Source]

Making the nomination strategy that much more interesting, Matt Gaetz resigned his position within congress, “effective immediately.”

In combination with the nomination of Senator Marco Rubio to the State Dept., this sets the stage for a Senate situation where the upper chamber may attempt to derail the Gaetz nomination, yet Florida Governor Ron DeSantis could then appoint him to be the replacement U.S. Senator from Florida; thus, returning an angry MOAB back into the silo that derailed him.

You couldn’t write this script if you tried.

A key position.  President Trump has announced his selection of William Joseph McGinley to serve as White House Counsel for the second term.

[Source]

The White House Counsel (WHC) is a critical component to the Office of the Presidency.

In term-1 the WHC was the primary hurdle to much of the corrupt information the public wanted President Trump to address.  It was White House Counsel who warned President Trump that any unilateral action taken by him would be construed by the silos within the IC, FBI and DOJ to be interference with their investigations.  President Trump deferred to that counsel.

The WHC doesn’t represent the President, the WHC represents the Office of the Presidency. It is the WHC primary function to protect the power of the President within the Executive Branch.  This generally leads to many misinterpretations of risk, and the President is often hamstrung by overly cautious counsel in the position.

Thankfully, a recent Supreme Court decision over “presidential immunity” affirmed the absolute and plenary power of the person who is President, as the authority of all actions that take place within the executive branch during their officials acts as President.  As SCOTUS affirmed there is no power greater than President Trump.  The President is the executive branch in everything, and the President has no boss.

When the FBI and DOJ lawfare operatives want to frame their agenda and undermine their targets, they have historically leaked to the New York Times and Politico.  Both outlets serve as the promoters for false or misleading information that benefits the bad actors inside the DOJ and FBI.

As a consequence, when the DOJ or FBI start freaking out, they run to the same New York Times and Politico.

Politico is reporting today about how the lawfare operatives inside Main Justice are panicking about what incoming President Trump will do.

WASHINGTON DC – A collective sense of dread has taken hold at the Department of Justice, which drew Donald Trump’s rage like no other part of the federal government during his campaign.

Some career attorneys at DOJ are already considering heading for the exits rather than sticking around to find out whether threats from Trump and his allies are real or campaign bluster. Those threats range from mass firings of “deep state” lawyers to expelling special counsel Jack Smith from the country.

“Everyone I’ve talked to, mostly lawyers, are losing their minds,” said one DOJ attorney, who like most of the people interviewed for this article was granted anonymity to speak freely about colleagues and avoid retribution from the president-elect and his allies. “The fear is that career leadership and career employees everywhere are either going to leave or they’re going to be driven out.”

In Florida, Judge Ailleen Cannon threw out the “classified documents case” against President Trump, citing in her opinion that Special Counsel Jack Smith had no constitutional authority to target and charge President Trump. Did you notice the missing DOJ appeal effort?

In the J6 case President Trump was accused of conspiring to illegally overturn the 2020 election. Charged with conspiracy to defraud the United States, obstruction of an official proceeding and conspiracy against rights. However, the Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity, again threw a wrench into the Lawfare strategy.

President Trump wins a massive electoral and popular vote landslide election. Within 12-hours the DOJ announce that technical legal processes block them from targeting a president-elect and sitting president.

The non-pretending reality of the issue is that Jack Smith and the Lawfare attacks were always going to end up in appeal to the Supreme Court, and the high court had already put its opinion on record. The election result provides the DOJ an excuse, a plausible justification to save face.

(Via NBC) – Justice Department officials have been evaluating how to wind down the two federal criminal cases against President-elect Donald Trump before he takes office to comply with long-standing department policy that a sitting president can’t be prosecuted, two people familiar with the matter tell NBC News.

Major win for Pennsylvania Republicans and election integrity groups. A few days ago, 3 Democrat judges on the Pennsylvania appellate court (3-2 decision) struck down a date and accuracy requirement for mail in ballots to be received. Today, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court just stayed that ruling and put the date requirement back into effect. This makes it harder for Democrats to cheat. [Pdf Here]

(Pennsylvania) – The Pennsylvania Supreme Court on Friday accepted Republicans’ request to again declare that mail ballots returned with a missing or incorrect date cannot be counted this election.

The Republican National Committee (RNC) filed an emergency appeal to ensure that election officials do not leverage a lower court’s ruling handed down Wednesday finding such disqualification violates the state constitution.

The ongoing surveillance of Donald Trump continues to generate a need for the U.S. Intelligence Community (USIC) to attribute foreign adversaries to the origin.  However, substantively we all know the surveillance itself is coming from inside the house.

In the latest development, the New York Times is reporting from their sources “familiar with the matter,” that communication systems within President Trump’s family have been corrupted by “China-linked hackers.”  Before outlining the who’s, what’s and transparently predictable “why’s” of the story, let us first outline what the USIC is leaking to the New York Times.

Remember as you read this, each surveillance system -the origin of the spyware- tells us a lot about what methods are being deployed as a justification for surveillance that we know has been ongoing for a long time.  Notice this “hacking” system is attributed to “Phones used by Jared Kushner and Eric Trump.” When you see ‘phones‘, think ‘Pegasus.’

New York Times – Members of former President Donald J. Trump’s family, as well as Biden administration and State Department officials, were among those targeted by the China-linked hackers who were able to break into telecommunications company systems, according to people familiar with the matter.

The sophisticated hacking operation has alarmed national security officials and appears to have targeted a substantial but focused list of people whose communications would be of interest to the Chinese government. The list of known targets is currently fewer than 100 individuals, these people said, speaking on condition of anonymity to describe a sensitive ongoing investigation.

I’m going to skip most of the nonsense about the “Raskin Letter” [SEE HERE] to focus on the part that few will notice or report.

The process that Jamie Raskin is angry about, is a transition process that was created by Barack Obama and his GSA administrative state allies, to control all aspects of an incoming administration in opposition to the system that Obama created.  This was the reinforcement cement in the “fundamental change” pillar.

The “transition process” that Raskin talks about was created in 2010.  The only presidential transitions that have taken place since then were Trump in ’16 and Biden in ’20.  That’s it.  This is not a historically used process.  In fact, Barack Obama never used it in 2009 when he came into office, because it never existed.

President Trump’s planned 2025 transition team are simply refusing to repeat the mistakes of the 2017 transition process that ended up with the GSA willfully impeding the peaceful transition of power, by targeting the incoming administration.  Lastly, notice the pesky IC term in the 3rd paragraph, “continuity” – as in the continuity of leftist government.

[SOURCE pdf]

(Via NBC) – The top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, Rep. Jamie Raskin, is sounding the alarm over former President Donald Trump’s failure to enter into key agreements with the Biden administration for the presidential transition process, warning that it could endanger the peaceful transfer of power and threaten U.S. national security.
