Answering a Familiar Question with a Current Example

I often hear or receive this question in various iterations.  When discussing the research outlines of current events, especially when we cite the historic background of what took place leading to those events – and how it created the outcome we now witness, we often get this question – or a version therein:

…”Have you tried to meet with DNI or DOJ or NSC people to attempt to ”unsilo” their thinking and understanding of all that transpired so they can connect all the dots. You have said that different people you’ve spoken to know pieces and parts, but the silos prevent anyone from knowing the whole. Can you not be the link? I love that we know but we can’t affect change. We/I only become more frustrated as our new leaders bumble along talking and focusing on seemingly trivial things compared to the Treason that has been on display since 2008.”….

My friends, part of the reason the corrupt DC system is so transparently predictable, is precisely because everyone engaged in the events has a vested interest to retain the corruption.  When you peel down the onion, when you get through the smoke to the fire, when you go deep into the rabbit hole and finally reach the dead end, you discover the root of everything that permeates everything is money. It is not ideology – it’s money.

From my myriads of travels and interactions with the system operators, I can boil down the answer to a few key points:

♦First, to the point of those we count on to stop the corruption, these are not smart people.  You project infinitely more intelligence upon them than they actually possess.  The high-information voter and researcher has much more knowledge than they do.  We fail and become frustrated when we mistakenly believe they carry an awareness that is factually not present.  You know more than your representative, and you know the context of that information at a much, much higher level than they do.  They ARE NOT smarter than you; where “they” applies to every-single-one of the names you might reference.  You are smarter than them.

♦Second, corruption is a business; whether in the initiation of it, or in the maintenance of it. Quoting myself in discussion of the situation: “My honest and respectfully intended question to you would be: What is it that makes our representatives always want to “talk about the information” rather than act upon the information, when the information is there for the taking?

Joe Biden’s Dept of Justice – Merrick Garland was AG In Name Only for a Specific Reason

There has been a lot of discussion about who was running the Biden administration against the backdrop of numerous revelations about his cognitive incapacity while in office.  However, one key point keeps being overlooked about the DOJ during his tenure.

Merrick Garland was not selected to be Joe Biden’s Attorney General because the crew in control of the events wanted Merrick Garland as Attorney General.  Garland was removed from his position as DC Circuit Court Justice in order to make room for Ketanji Brown-Jackson to take Garland’s place, get Senate confirmed and then await the resignation of Supreme Court Justice Stephen Bryer. {GO DEEP}

As a standalone Supreme Court nominee, Judge Ketanji Brown-Jackson would have been a radical pick.  Judge Brown-Jackson was a known activist in the DC District Court; however, by removing Garland as chief circuit justice and replacing him with KBJ, who needed Senate confirmation as chief circuit justice, she could get through a later Senate confirmation easier and then sit on the Supreme Court for thirty years.  Garland was removed to make room for KBJ.  It was a strategy.

Garland was a U.S. Attorney General in name only.  The actual lead of the DOJ was from Obama’s crew, Deputy AG Lisa Monaco.

WHY?

Back in 2009 President Obama selected Eric Holder to be Attorney General.  AG Holder’s role was to lead the Lawfare ‘fundamental transformation’ we have seen in the 16 years since.  In the 2010 midterms, Obama was “shellacked,” that triggered AG Holder to ask the Treasury Department to participate in a “special research project.” {Go Deep}

The IRS was asked for the Schedule-B’s of groups who were registered as “patriot” groups (Tea Party Patriots) and other names associated with the political uprising against Barack Obama and the takeover of federal healthcare, ie Obamacare.   The Cincinnati field office of the IRS then sent the DOJ a batch of CD-ROM’s containing the names of the individual donors listed on the IRS 501-c (3)(4) forms.  That list was then compiled and used by the federal government to target the donors and supporters.  A whistleblower came forward; the IRS controversy swirled in 2012.

On September 25, 2014, the Justice Department said Attorney General Eric Holder would resign as soon as his successor is confirmed. Holder was succeeded by Loretta Lynch on April 27, 2015. Lynch was selected because she was the bridge to Hillary Clinton’s campaign in 2016. Remember the Bill Clinton and Loretta Lynch tarmac meeting?  It’s all connected.

[Sidebar – the reporter who broke the story of the Arizona Clinton/Lynch tarmac meeting later died from “suicide.”]

With Biden/Hur Tapes Released the Question is, Who Was Running the Country?

Axios obtained the audio of former President Biden’s October 2023 interviews with special counsel Robert Hur. In the first segment below, recorded on the first day of interviews, former President Biden was questioned about where he kept documents. Biden had difficulty recalling that it was 2015 when his son Beau died. Biden also shared that President Obama discouraged him from running for president.

The interview tapes reveal the scope of cognitive decline the control agents around Joe Biden were trying to keep hidden from the country. As the tapes reveal, Joe Biden was not in any capacity to be in office. The question remains, who was running the country? Listen:

Biden’s mental capacity was severely compromised.  It is obvious everyone around him knew the problem.  We all saw it even before he took office and the answer to the question is the same today as we discussed in 2020, 2021 and beyond.  These tapes only confirm what we already knew.

The State Dept was being run by Tony Blinken, Victoria Nuland and Samantha Power.  The Clinton and Obama networks, along with their allies in congress and in various political organizations, were being paid and financed through various NGOs and stood up non-profits organized by the beneficiaries of the funding.  All of those connections were revealed by the DOGE audits of USAID and other agencies.

Keep in mind that Susan Rice was part of the White House network up to the day Biden announced his intent to run again in 2024; so, she obviously knew his mental state.  Others in the White House, again part of the Obama and Clinton networks were running the day-to-day operations.  Biden was a figurehead, an avatar for the handlers operating in the background.

The DOJ, Main Justice and the FBI were being run by Lisa Monaco, again an Obama operative.  The job at Main Justice was to use their Lawfare strategy to protect the fake and corrupt administration, keep everyone in line and attack all of their political opposition.

President Trump Debriefs on His Middle East Trip, Outlining Results

President Donald Trump sits down with Bret Baier to discuss the results of his trip to the middle east.  President Trump discusses investments in America, trade negotiations, the ongoing discussions with Iran and plans to solve the conflict between Hamas and Israel in Gaza.

President Trump outlines Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as an “angry man,” albeit rightly angered by the attack on Israel on October 7th. President Trump’s remarks about Iran come as the Iranian regime is beginning to indicate a willingness to concede to Trump’s requirements.  It’s all about the economics of the thing, the Trump Doctrine.  WATCH:

.

THE TRUMP DOCTRINE – What you will notice from President Trump’s responses to questions during foreign leader engagements is the unique nature of his honesty.   In the most consequential of ways, President Trump is the most consequential foreign policy leader in generations.   We forget that during Trump’s first term in office, the headlines about North and South Korea were not about conflict, but rather about the possibility of unification on the Korean peninsula.
