There are many very important positions related to the expectations we hold for President Trump.  Having spent years deep inside the actual workings of the current professional DC silos, I can tell you most of those expectations are very challenging to achieve.

In one 4-year term President Trump can set the cornerstone for a reconstruction effort that will take at least 15 years.  [Reference, Team Obama used 18+ years to create it (January 2007 to present)].

In this series my goal is more to describe the needs of some critical positions from a very practical, non-pretending, perspective of what happens within specific offices.  I already discussed two critical positions that do not require IC approval (Emissary and NatSec Advisor) today I outline a third, the White House Counsel.

The Office of White House Counsel does not need IC/Senate approval.

The Office of the White House Counsel (WHC) is the gatekeeper to the Office of the President.  The White House Counsel does not represent Donald Trump; the WHC represents the office of the presidency and the person fulfilling the duty of the presidency.   For the interests of an effective White House Counsel, who is president is irrelevant; they are guarding the office.

The WHC is critical because it is the advice and opinion of the lawyer in this role who can completely hamstring a President, block a President and ultimately control a President.  The WHC also party controls access to the Office of the President, if the person seeking access is determined detrimental to the “office of the president.”

Essentially a legal gatekeeper, with the job to protect the office of the President (not Donald Trump the person), the White House Counsel is very critical.  Understanding that lawyers in general are averse to risk, and understanding a White House primary lawyer would be exceptionally averse to risk, most White House counsel office holders are predisposed to create the concentric circles of protection around the office.

The WHC coordinates the collapse of the concentric circles when major crisis unfolds.  Starting on the perimeter the WHC organizes the people who will take responsibility for a major problem, with the goal in mind to keep the collateral damage as far away from the office as possible.  Like a mob lawyer, the consigliere will tell a person when they must take the blame -self immolate- and exit the White House for the good of the office etc.

That said, there was a very important facet to the White House Counsel’s office that failed in Trump’s first term.  This failure cannot be repeated.

I’m just catching up on some events that I have missed.  The first press conference by the U.S. Secret Service about the Trump assassination attempt was alarming.  This is the first time the media had to question USSS since the attempted assassination in Butler, Pennsylvania.

Fox News host Jesse Watters does a good job summarizing the event and encapsulating the largest takeaways from the briefing.

The full press briefing is below.

President Donald J. Trump, and his running mate J.D. Vance, will be in Atlanta today for a rally at Georgia State University Convocation Center.  Doors for the rally open at 1 pm, and the rally is scheduled to begin at 3 pm.  Thousands of people showed up early in the morning ahead of the rally.  Vance is scheduled to speak at 4 pm, and President Trump is scheduled to speak at 5 pm.

This is a little awkward. Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker appears to have accidentally posted a video on her X-account celebrating Kamala choosing Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro as her Vice-Presidential nominee. [Source Link] A little awkward.

Proud to be back with so many leaders from across our region supporting @KamalaHarris for President and @JoshShapiroPA for VP! We are One CITY, One REGION, and ONE Commonwealth United! @PADems @PhillyDems @Joanna4PA @PADemsChair @IBEW98 @RepHarris @PALaborers pic.twitter.com/Rh1ojbRjcr

In reading the responses about “the emissary” post, I am reminded why our nation is in this mess, and the scale of trying to get people to fathom the depth of our national problems.

If you are one of the few voices who comprehend who and what an “emissary” is, as well as how they are needed, then you will understand why any further posts of mine on the 2025 topic are going to be password protected.

Head’s up.  In order for the comment section to be of value to me, it needs to be an intellectual discussion by smart people who understand politics.  I am going to apply the password for all future threads on the 2025 topic and then I can more effectively use the blacklist banner for the govt-aligned voices who try to hijack and steer the conversation.

My thoughts and advice on the subject matter are the result of thousands and thousands of hours work, specifically categorizing every granular issue in DC and how it functions amid a corrupt and weaponized silo system.  I don’t pretend.

95% of the opinion you are reading about presidential positions, qualifications and expectations are based on people who hold pretenses, intentionally or, in many cases, accidentally, because they just don’t know better.   Some people think DC corruption is really, really bad. Trust me, it’s worse than that.

My thoughts on staffing, roles and responsibilities are from a pragmatic place of what can reasonably be expected to be achieved.  CTH has never joined this nonsensical “trusty-planner” mindset.  There is no plan.  There never was a plan.  There is one guy, Donald Trump, trying to enact policies to the benefit of the American people.  Every democrat and every republican want him to fail.

The introduction is here [CATCH UP], I am not going to slow down, re-review and/or rewrite anything. We have a limited amount of time, and the focus of these outlines is easy to understand.

In the next few weeks, I am going to write very specifically about who might be best suited for roles and responsibilities. Not from the perspective of the person per se’, but rather from the perspective of a fully understandable context for the position; the reality of what can be pragmatically accomplished, and detailed reasoning for why the challenge they will face exists. Today I focus on “the emissary.”

Without a doubt in my mind, the “emissary” is the most important person President Trump will select.

The Washington DC Intelligence Community (IC) actively work to isolate the office of the president.  This is an almost impossible dynamic to avoid, caused by an entrenched and ideological adversary who has dug themselves deep into the apparatus of government.

The “emissary” is the person who carries the word of President Trump to any person identified by President Trump.  The emissary is very much like a tape recording of President Trump in human form.  The emissary travels to a location, meets a particular person or group, and then recites the opinion of the President.  The words spoken by the emissary, are the words of President Trump.

The IC cannot inject themselves into this dynamic; that is why it is so valuable.

The emissary then hears the response from the intended person or group, repeats it back to them to ensure he/she will return with clarity of intent as expressed, and then returns to the office of the presidency and repeats the reply for the President.  The emissary recites back exactly what he was /is told.

This process is critical when you understand how thoroughly compromised the full Executive Branch is.  More importantly, this process becomes even more critical when you accept the Intelligence Community will lie to the office of the President to retain their position.

Read this next sentence slowly…. If the Senate confirms a director of an IC silo, then that director is demonstrably going to lie to the office of the President.

The Senate only confirms Intelligence Community leadership who are willing to LIE to THE PRESIDENT.    This is just a factual reality.

If the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI) confirms them, they will lie.  That is the main role of the SSCI.

The people who constructed the Silos then metastasized the control rot within them, use the term “continuity of government,” to describe the true role and responsibility of the system.  This is not factually wrong.

Where people go wrong is misunderstanding what the “continuity” is that is being maintained.  Truly, the continuity of government is the priority. However, it’s the continuity of currently corrupt and immoral government we are now maintaining.

After visiting Chicago to speak to the NABJ convention, President Trump heads back to Pennsylvania for a rally in Harrisburg.  Pennsylvania is one of the biggest battleground states amid the 2024 contest.  Removing ballot fraud from Philadelphia County election operations, would be the state level outcome equivalent of removing the ballot fraud from Broward County, Florida.

President Trump is scheduled to deliver remarks at 6:00pm ET, with livestream links below.

For the past several weeks and months I have been asked to present thoughts on potential candidates for offices in/around the Trump administration if they can achieve victory in the 2024 election.  Essentially, if Trump wins, “who” would be best in “what” positions?

I have been extremely reluctant to put something together like this because ultimately, I look at the challenges with a different perspective. Additionally, I am not confident that key people understand the complexity of the problem and as a result would not absorb the context of any suggestions I might offer.  However, after careful thought, prayer and reflection, a slight change in the presentation might actually be beneficial.

In the next few weeks, I am going to write very specifically about who might be best suited for roles and responsibilities. Not from the perspective of the person per se’, but rather from the perspective of a fully understandable context for the position; the reality of what can be pragmatically accomplished, and detailed reasoning for why the challenge they will face exists.

This first introduction of sorts is a beginning with the end in mind, an introduction.

It is NOT my intent to provide a private list of recommendations. What I want to do is set the cornerstone of how each role can predictably be anticipated to engage with each challenge, and ultimately what I believe they will have to do in order to make progress.  This is a public series of non-pretending presentations, where all of the traditional civic perspectives that people have might be challenged.

Roles and responsibilities are only valuable if we define and accept the problem from the same perspective.  It is with that thought in mind that such an undertaking begins.

If successful in the 2024 election, President Trump will have one 4-year term to begin charting a new course within our government.

President Trump cannot be expected to fix or repair all of the damage created within our Constitutional Republic in one term.  However, it is possible for President Trump to set the cornerstones in place that ensure the greatest likelihood of success for a modern restoration.

This is a very significant policy proposal.  President Trump is supporting a position that Seniors should not pay taxes on Social Security income.

[SOURCE]

This comes on the heels of President Trump supported policy that income received from service tips should not be taxed.

Combined, both of these policies would result in massive numbers of middle-class Americans having more money in their bank accounts.  The national economic benefits of these two combined policies are extremely significant and could actually offset the financial damage done by Joe Biden.

The timing of this announcement coincides with President Trump visiting Chicago.
