President Trump Discusses Banking, Finance and MAGAnomics With Jim Cramer at NYSE

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.

Inspect General Outlines Extensive Use of FBI Confidential Human Sources on January 6, 2021

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.

FBI Director Chris Wray Says He Intends “to serve until the end of the current Administration in January and then step down”…

It’s a good thing for FBI Director Christopher Wray to announce his resignation, because President Trump was going to fire him.

A preplanned resignation allows Director Wray to continue portraying FBI officials and agents as victims, and this approach gives corporate media the time to shine the halos and organize their best magnanimous political exit so far.

Swans will likely wear black necklaces in the reflecting pools at the national mall….. and slow muffled drums will follow Wray to every event.

WASHINGTON DC – “After weeks of careful thought, I’ve decided the right thing for the Bureau is for me to serve until the end of the current Administration in January and then step down,” Wray said Wednesday, according to prepared remarks released by the FBI’s press office.

“My goal is to keep the focus on our mission — the indispensable work you’re doing on behalf of the American people every day,” Wray said.

“In my view, this is the best way to avoid dragging the Bureau deeper into the fray, while reinforcing the values and principles that are so important to how we do our work,” the director said. (read more)

Senator Tom Cotton Likely to Take Final Spot within Intelligence Community Gang of Eight

One of the least understood aspects of congressional oversight is the elite group of elected politicians who are charged with congressional oversight over all intelligence activity. This highly important oversight group is called the Intelligence Community “Gang of Eight”.

A position within the Gang of Eight comes as a result of holding one of the following eight positions: 1. The Speaker of the House, 2. The Minority Leader of the House, 3. the Majority Leader of the Senate, 4. the Minority Leader of the Senate, 5. the Chairperson of the House Permanent Committee on Intelligence, 6. the minority leader from the same committee; 7. The Chairperson of the Senate Intelligence Committee and 8. the minority leader of the same committee.

With Senator Marco Rubio being pulled out of the Senate to work as Secretary of State, we have been waiting to see who would be appointed by Senate Majority Leader John Thune to be the Rubio replacement as Senate Intel Committee Chair and Go8 member. It now looks like Sea Island attendee Tom Cotton will take up position as SSCI Chair and Gang of Eight member.

WASHINGTON DC – Senate Republicans have discussed elevating Sen. John Cornyn to chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, according to party officials, a move that would hand Cornyn a prized gavel as consolation for losing his GOP leader bid and could help induce him to run for reelection in two years.

The complication, and almost certain deal-breaker: Cornyn would have to leapfrog the Republican next in line to chair the Intelligence Committee, Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.), and Cotton has privately made clear to Cornyn he would claim the position.

RFK Jr Making Moves Inside Transition Team to Position Daughter in Law as Deputy CIA Nominee

It was not that long ago when some people in the MAGA movement warned that Robert F Kennedy Jr could be positioning himself to maneuver his daughter-in-law into an Intelligence Community position within the Trump administration.  Most people said that was crazy talk.

Apparently, there is some truth to the rumor that RFK Jr is attempting to position his daughter-in-law, Amaryllis Fox-Kennedy, as Deputy CIA Director under John Ratcliffe.  Mrs Amaryllis Fox-Kennedy has been a long-term CIA case agent.  Additionally, if accurate, this would be yet another Tucker Carlson guest who evolves into the Trump administration.

VIA AXIOS – Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s campaign manager and daughter-in-law Amaryllis Fox Kennedy is making a push to serve as deputy director at the CIA next year — and RFK Jr. is making calls on her behalf, Axios has learned.

Why it matters: Fox Kennedy, an integral member of Kennedy’s campaign, wrote a memoir detailing nearly a decade working at the CIA. The deputy director position does not require Senate confirmation.

President-elect Trump, who has signaled plans to try to overhaul U.S. intelligence agencies during his second term, has already named former intelligence director John Ratcliffe to lead the CIA.

The deputy position is one of the highest-profile intelligence jobs that remains open. Politico reported last month that Kash Patel, who has been tapped for FBI director, and Cliff Sims, a former Trump administration official, were jockeying for the role.

President Trump Announces Kimberly Guilfoyle as U.S. Ambassador to Greece

At first this one took me by surprise, then I realized Donald Trump Jr and Kimberly Guilfoyle stopped being together a few months ago, now this appointment makes sense.  President Trump sends Kimberly Guilfoyle to Greece.

The New York Post reported, “Donald Trump Jr. is dating glamorous Palm Beach socialite Bettina Anderson after splitting with fiancée Kimberly Guilfoyle.”    The Daily Mail has more on the partner switch – SEE HERE.

Palantir CEO Dr. Alex Karp Outlines Future of AI Race During Reagan National Defense Forum

It’s not AI per se’ that poses the problem, rather it is the ability of AI software to connect, filter and process multiple databases of stored information in real time, creating a tracking and tracing system, that can be weaponized and poses a problem for those who do not want the USA to turn into a full surveillance state.

When you combine government required “Real ID” with, enhanced facial recognition software, then connect the identity to a metadata library of all the public and private electronic information of a person, what you end up with is the ability to conduct total surveillance of a targeted individual without constitutional limits and privacy protections. This is the larger problem with Palantir’s partnership with government systems.

It is a conversation no one is having before the capability is reached.

That said, Palantir CEO Alex Karp appeared at the Reagan National Defense forum, and does a great job advocating for the U.S. to win the artificial intelligence race. Karp believes it is possible to insert “values” into the software at strategic places of connection, and thereby control the outputs. The question within the AI race then becomes, whose values? Ours or our enemies?

In a series of video segments placed onto a Twitter Thread, you get a good sense for what Palantir, Karp, Peter Thiel, Elon Musk and newly appointed White House Czar of AI, David Sacks, are trying to do inside this global race toward artificial intelligence as applied to government systems.

Mark Levin Outlines Why Obama/Biden Administration are Talking About “Preemptive Pardons”

President Trump suggested on his Truth Social account to review the commentary by Mark Levin this past weekend.

Within his opening monologue, Mr Levin walks through the historic background of the attacks against President Trump, and by extension the larger American electorate, and how all of that White House triggered weaponization underpins the nervousness of the Obama/Biden administration.  It is an interesting review and revisit to the issues of great familiarity to all of us.  WATCH:

Why don’t we ever hear her name?

If there is one Lawfare operative who has escaped scrutiny for her corrupt endeavors, it would be Mary McCord.

Incoming Border Czar Tom Homan Discusses Deportation Priority and Risk Created by Sanctuary Cities

Incoming Border Czar Tom Homan makes several really good points in this interview on Fox News.   Regarding the number of “criminal illegal aliens” being reported, Homan notes that multiple large areas consider themselves “sanctuary cities” and do not report the immigration status of their jail/prison inmate population.

Homan also notes that if mayors and officials within sanctuary cities do not support the capture of criminal aliens, they will end up creating a system where both criminal and non-criminal aliens are captured and deported.  As the agents look for the criminal aliens, they will not overlook the immigration status of anyone they encounter – regardless of criminal activity.

Tom Homan also notes they will need money for the deportation operation.  This ties in well to the segment with Stephen Miller, where the Deputy Chief of Staff outlined an early immigration bill with border security money upfront.  WATCH:
