The operators inside the FBI silo are stunned about the announcement that Kash Patel “will serve as” the next FBI Director.  Conspicuously, their primary conduits for narrative pushback, The New York Times and Politico, are rather docile with only one article in each online publication.

Joe Biden’s National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan was asked earlier today for a White House reaction to the announcement.  Here’s the short segment about that issue.  WATCH: 

.

“What makes the F.B.I. director different from most other nominees is they’re not just appointed for one term of a president,” Mr. Sullivan said. “They’re appointed for enough time to last past two terms of a president, because they’re supposed to be insulated from politics.” ~ Jake Sullivan

In order to appropriately discuss leadership of the FBI silo as an institution of DC influence, it becomes very important for everyone to understand the current status of the FBI as the organization has self-identified.

For those who followed the 2016 campaign of President Trump and then watched the 2017 attacks organized by the DOJ and FBI toward the incoming Trump administration, you may agree with me that a complete disassembly of the FBI is now warranted. However, first it is important to understand just how bad the corruption has become:

RECAP: The FBI relationship with Antifa.  There is no way for Antifa to operate as a domestic extremist group, without the expressed support and willful blindness of the FBI.  Quite simply, if the FBI wanted to stop the violent and extremist activity of Antifa, they could do that easily.

The objective of the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago was to resecure what they perceived as physical evidence President Trump controlled showing how the DOJ and FBI action in 2016 was targeting him using the power of their law enforcement and intelligence agencies.   In the background, the origination of all the DOJ/FBI/IC targeting goes back to the ’15/’16 FBI exploitation of the NSA database; this is not a contested discussion issue – it’s just continually forgotten.

The FBI was using their access to the NSA metadata of all Americans, to conduct surveillance on political candidates that might be a threat to the power structures that exploited the secrets within the electronic records of all Americans.  The FBI was, almost certainly still is, conducting domestic surveillance and tracking Americans just like the German Stasi or Soviet KGB.  It’s still happening, but we are not supposed to talk about it, or something.

The raid on Mar-a-Lago, just like the Robert Mueller investigation, was part of a long standing coverup operation.  The FBI was looking for what Trump took with him as evidence of the weaponized system that targeted him.  The FBI wanted that back.  The FBI was willing to use deadly force to get it back if that’s what it took.

Senate Select Committee on Intelligence member Mike Rounds doesn’t sound too enthusiastic about Kash Patel in the role of FBI director.  In an interview this morning on ABC, the Republican senator from South Dakota said President Trump has the right to nominate Mr Patel, and the Senate will consider the “consent” from there.  WATCH:

Several people are wondering if current FBI Director Chris Wray will resign.  It’s a very unusual dynamic and the internal pressure will likely be on Director Wray to force President Trump to fire him, especially if the House and Senate are in session and there’s no possibility at the time for President Trump to appoint an “acting” replacement.

A lot can happen with President Trump announcing Kash Patel “will serve as” FBI Director, while a current FBI Director is still in place.  Without the ability to appoint an “acting” replacement, the Deputy FBI director would take Wray’s place even if Wray was fired.  Mike Rounds expresses full confidence in Chris Wray during this interview.

“It is of the LORD’S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him. The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.” ~ Lam 3:22-26

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

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

~ Mike Vanderboegh (adapted)

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 †

I have not been this stunned, surprised, shocked or taken aback since President-Elect Donald Trump announced Matt Gaetz as the next United States Attorney General.

Using his Truth Social account to capture attention, President Donald Trump announces, “Kashyap “Kash” Patel will serve as the next Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.”

[Source]

As interesting as the announcement is, so too is the wording President Trump selected; not “nominated“, not “appointed,” a simple “will serve as“… Thereby leaving the maximum amount of interpretability available for the consumer of the announcement.

This has to be the most Trumpian announcement in the history of some very Trumpian announcements.

FBI Director Christopher Wray has approximately two years left on his term, and he has not announced his resignation. It should also be noted President-Elect Donald Trump did not say anything about firing Chris Wray, which would be in bad form considering that President Trump couldn’t even entertain the approach until he is officially inaugurated in January.

That dynamic quickly triggered the FBI to respond with: “Every day, the men and women of the FBI continue to work to protect Americans from a growing array of threats. Director Wray’s focus remains on the men and women of the FBI, the people we do the work with, and the people we do the work for.”

To understand the outcome of the next four years (and beyond), it is important to begin with the same information.  One key not discussed anywhere else is outlined below.

Consider this a baseline for future context in the world of the USA and President Trump politics.

♦ Summarized it looks like this: In late summer 2023 not only myself, but several insightful analysts in the world of high finance, had come to the conclusion that Musk’s financial effort with the purchase of Twitter was unsustainable, unless something changed.

Something did change.

In early August of 2023, understanding the dynamic at stake, and also having a strategy for his own interests, Oracle’s Larry Ellison said, ‘he would not let Elon Musk fail with Twitter’.

Billionaire Larry Ellison, a Tesla Board member, already had invested money in place, but that wasn’t the motive on this move. In hindsight, Ellison was brilliant and intensely strategic.  It is important to understand what exactly ‘board members’ are recruited for, and the stability/security reasons for why they are recruited.

It’s more than a little funny all things considered. Particularly funny if you know the full background {GO DEEP}.  However, as the story is now told, George Clooney is furious that he listened to his good friend Barack Obama when Clooney led the charge against Joe Biden in July.

RadarOnline – […] “Obama and Clooney have been tight for years, and George became Barack’s surrogate in leading the charge for Joe to step away”, explained the source. “Barack knew he would look like a traitor if he publicly called for Joe to be cut loose. And now, he’s trying to walk away from it all. “George feels duped and vows he’s not going to be anyone’s political water boy anymore.” Read More.

Please do read the entire short article.  The key point is the part about Obama being the driver of the op-ed letter written by Clooney that demanded Joe Biden step aside.

In an absolute repeat of the way Obama operates, Barack now disappears -saves his own ego- and leaves his friends carrying the egg on their faces.  That’s Obama in a nutshell.

However, George Clooney’s current motive is not just about his own drop in influence or affluence, George’s personal problem is the impact on his wife, Amal Clooney, the actual author of the letter who finds herself in a strange position of lost purpose while the leftist world retreats and the era of Trump dawns.
