According to those in political circles who are instructed by the intelligence community, funding for Ukraine is the highest national priority.  As an outcome we see all the DC politicians and beltway pundits pushing the same story, funding for Ukraine is the highest priority.

The key politicians within the dynamic exist inside information silos, essentially control mechanisms, where the intelligence community (IC) constructs reality by briefing the politicians about what is going on in the world.  The IC tells the politicians what is happening, defines the importance and instructs the politicians on the priorities.  The IC is never challenged because ultimately the IC has “seven ways to Sunday” to target the politicians if any non-compliance is identified.

Speaker Mike Johnson is one of the “gang-of-eight” members within the legislative branch.  The Go8 are briefed and controlled by the IC, using the exact same intelligence given to the President.  Speaker Johnson has the funding of Ukraine as his top priority, because the IC officials who set priorities have told him it must be.  WATCH (prompted):

(Via Fox News) – […] “When we return after this period, we’ll be moving a product. But it’s going to, I think, have some important innovations,” Johnson told Fox News’ “Sunday Night in America with Trey Gowdy.”

Both the House and Senate are currently on the second week of a two-week recess, when lawmakers are working in their home districts. The House is back on Tuesday, April 9.

In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the JoeBama Administration and Presidency.

“This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won’t be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.”

“But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.

For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Wow, talk about a strange convergence of conversations.  As we discuss the global financial cleaving, Cardinal Gerhard Müller talks about how the West is diminishing God and faith, but faith is growing outside the western control zone.

Is the Christian faith connected more closely to the social fabric of nationalism, and is globalism an outcome of disconnected faith from national value?  Cardinal Müller doesn’t draw that socioeconomic relationship directly; however, what he describes is completely in alignment with the proposition.

Exult, let them exult, the hosts of heaven,
exult, let Angel ministers of God exult,
let the trumpet of salvation
sound aloud our mighty King’s triumph!

Be glad, let earth be glad, as glory floods her,
ablaze with light from her eternal King,
let all corners of the earth be glad,
knowing an end to gloom and darkness.

Rejoice, let Mother Church also rejoice,
arrayed with the lightning of his glory,
let this holy building shake with joy,
filled with the mighty voices of the peoples. (more…)
