It is all coming together nicely.  With Lt General Keith Kellogg special envoy to Ukraine and Russia, and with the appointment of Steven C. Witkoff to be Special Envoy to the Middle East, President Trump has essentially created a construct that works around the insufferable issues with a globalist State Department.

Senator Marco Rubio was nominated for Secretary of State, thereby removing him from the Senate Intelligence Committee and leadership role in Gang of Eight intel; but Trump simultaneously put in guardrails against the neocon tendencies of the Florida Senator and junior McCain.

Rubio doesn’t have Ukraine/Russia in his portfolio, nor does he have diplomatic or policy control over the Middle East.  President Trump has neutered the State Department, and the cherry on the proverbial cake is what he just announced.

Yes, President Trump has just confirmed that Ric Grenell will be the “Emissary” we have discussed.  Great job Mr President (for all the obvious reasons).

With Nunes leading a private intel advisory committee and with Grenell being the most powerful, agile and flexible person to run strategic foreign policy operations, the tentacle influence of the Deep State is removed from the Oval Office.  Now the official cabinet team can start pouring sunlight into the silos.

“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.”

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 †

Facing depositions and the strong possibility of an embarrassment in court, ABC and George Stephanopoulos have agreed to apologize to President Trump and donate $15,000,000.00 to the President Trump library to settle a defamation lawsuit filed by President Trump.

(Via FOX) ABC News and their top anchor George Stephanopoulos have reached a settlement with Donald Trump in his defamation suit, which will result in the news network paying the president-elect $15 million.

The settlement was publicly filed on Saturday, revealing that the two parties have come to an agreement and avoided a costly trial. According to the settlement, ABC News will pay $15 million as a charitable contribution to a “Presidential foundation and museum to be established by or for Plaintiff, as Presidents of the United States of America have established in the past.” Additionally, the network will pay $1 million in Trump’s attorney fees.

Stephanopoulos and ABC News will issue statements of “regret” as an editor’s note at the bottom of a March 10, 2024, online article, about comments made earlier this year that prompted Trump to file a defamation lawsuit. (read more)

President Donald Trump has revealed something very important to those who fully understand the nature and construct of the DC Silo system. An outside government “Intelligence Advisory Board,” perhaps the ultimate cross-silo information system.

[SOURCE]

The approach of an Intelligence Advisory Board has the possibility to fracture the mechanism used by the DC Intelligence Community to isolate the president.

Within the various intel agencies, they use a process of building silos of information that are not shared outside the origination agency unless certain rules are followed.  This is a mechanism to retain control.

One of these control mechanisms is found in the classification process.  Each agency (colloquially called a ‘stakeholder’) has unilateral control over their unique contribution to a collective document or intelligence product.  Unless every stakeholder agrees to the declassification, the intel product is withheld and remains “siloed”.  That’s just one example, there are hundreds more.

President Trump notes, “Can this really be happening without our government’s knowledge. I don’t think so!” via his Truth Social account.  And of course, the simplicity of calling out a nonsense fear narrative doesn’t fit the PERT chart.

CTH previously noted the absurdity of the story narratives around these “drones.”  Of course, the U.S. military know what these drones are and exactly what they are about.

Occam’s Razor applied essentially links back to this press release from 2023:

EGG HARBOR TOWNSHIP, NEW JERSEY, UNITED STATES, June 2, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — An agreement to create a test and evaluation corridor for the development of Uncrewed Aerial Systems (UAS) and automated Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) technologies was recently signed by officials representing U.S. Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM), Air Mobility Command (AMC), the National Aerospace Research & Technology Park (NARTP), and the Atlantic County Economic Alliance (ACEA).

There are various soundbites, clickbait headlines, column inches and video streams filled with those on the political left waxing philosophically about the threat President Trump represents to “institutional norms” in his second term.

You know exactly the reason why.  It is not a surprise to see media and bureaucratic defenders of the FBI, DOJ and Intelligence Community throwing out wild accusations and fears of what President Trump and his cabinet might do.

For the sake of this outline, let us quickly revisit a key inflection point when these “institutions” were given power over We The People.

During the rushed debate over the Patriot Act, was when we first heard political officials talking about the importance of “continuity of government.”

Many of us recognized what these DC voices were describing was a construct of a post-911 government that would exist and maintain itself without the elected representatives of WeThe People.

The intelligence gathering and homeland security system put into place after the Patriot Act was passed, is a bureaucratic administrative state without the presence of elected officials controlling the apparatus. That leads to the following question:

How can a constitutional republic function without elected officials in control of it?

That question is at the heart of our current situation.

That question is at the epicenter of this “new American democracy” that no one seems to understand.

The simple answer is it cannot.

We have been fighting this three-headed IC monster (DHS, DNI, DOJ-NSD) ever since.

As noted yesterday, President Trump has announced his full support for the International Longshoremen’s Association (ILA) trade union position in defense of their members. [SEE HERE]

Today, ILA Executive Vice-President Dennis Daggett releases a statement following his meeting with President Donald Trump.

To many people this confrontation over foreign ownership of critical port infrastructure seems detached and complicated when contrast against efficiency, lower prices for transportation and, essentially, a vital national interest. However, in the bigger picture President Trump has been consistent with a position that U.S. companies and labor organizations must look out for American interests first and foremost.

The chase for price, cost and Total Cost of Production (TCP) has led to our nation losing jobs, losing wealth, losing manufacturing capability and ultimately losing control over our own vital interests. The prior chase for less costly goods was a road paved with intentions that ultimately created negative outcomes for the American people (ex. The Rustbelt).
