I wonder how many honest people there are in Washington D.C.

Sounds like a mess. And Trump knows about the mess.

Watch what happens in 10 days.

With a few exceptions the NSC staff is borrowed from the agencies. Just send them all back and clear the place out. The “interagency” is a bizarre mess anyway. There is nothing more bizarre and headache inducing than seeing and NSC meeting up close and personal. You just want to call in an airstrike on your own position and end it all.

If Trump can’t do anything about this guy in this position then he should take his daily briefs and then go around him and bring in all the heads whose output goes into the daily brief and grill them as a regular thing and make sure that everyone understands that the first time any political gamesmanship is detected the charge will be called treason. “Intelligence” is nothing to play with. It’s dead serious.

“Somewhere amid the 1,500+ pages of legislative clutter in the latest Continuing Resolution—the bill apparently killed by public exposure alone—lies a provision so audacious, so shameless, I can only assume it was drafted by a cabal of Congressional career criminals. Section 605—a sterile title masking its true intent—amounts to nothing less than a legislative fortress erected to shield Congress from the Justice Department, the FBI, and, most troubling of all, accountability.”

Mike Turner is my Congressional Representative, he has been there forever and is a big advocate for sending money to Ukraine. Mike Turner was a big supporter of John Boehner and naturally Paul Ryan. Mike Turner has been tied to the intelligence community for years. He like most establishment Ohio Republicans is a “principled Republican” who opposes President Trump, he has been smarter than most as he hasn’t come right out and said anything. He did an interview on the old Tucker Carlson show where Tucker asked him why he was more concerned about protecting Ukraine’s border than our own especially when there was fentanyl coming across our border killing his constituents in small town Ohio. Mike Turner didn’t answer the question but went on about how important it was to fulfill our international obligations. Mike Turner would most definitely undermine or sabotage President Trump in order to secure the deep state agenda.

It doesn’t take an expert in intelligence to fire everyone currently working in that department. Someone maybe under the impression that Trump’s choice is to lead the department when maybe, just maybe the real task is a clean sweep. 🤔

It’s not like the good guys and the bad guys each wear uniforms (not talking about military uniforms).

It’s going to take some time to sort everyone out.

The DC UniParty and the SSCI Have One Overarching Issue They Will Defend, Support for the Surveillance State

January 11, 2025 | Sundance 

Washington DC is creating a surveillance state. 

You can debate the motives and intentions behind it, but the core of their creation aligns and supports a fully comprehensive American surveillance state.

We cannot be intellectually honest with each other about how the tools of a weaponized government were deployed against Americans, specifically in the example of presidential candidate Donald Trump, without accepting the tools exist for far more consequential reasons than just Donald Trump.

In this segment from April of 2024, Tucker Carlson (motive irrelevant) accurately outlined the purpose of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) and how that legislatively created tool is being used by Washington DC, both parties.

Within this monologue Tucker Carlson hits on some accurate points to share with his audience. 

WATCH:

Mike Johnson Is Fighting to Protect the Government Spy Program Used on Trump

My personal experience with the IC surveillance state mirrors that described by Tucker Carlson.  As you step into the world of real data, unfiltered by the systems intended to control our perspectives, the system tends to see you as a threat.

Ongoing research into the dollar-based Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) has made the surveillance system much more visible. All of these systems (Real ID, Digital Identity, Facial Recognition, metadata collection, AI search and result capability, etc.) are eventually going to merge and connect, unless we do something to stop the people who are creating this system.

Previously in 2023, Harvard Law professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz and former Department of Defense Chief of Staff, Kash Patel, appeared on Fox News with Maria Bartiromo to discuss President Donald Trump’s criminal case, the J6 targeting and the use of FISA-702 to conduct political surveillance.

I am prompting the earlier video to 02:20 to focus one aspect of the interview on the 2023 Republican led FISA-702 reauthorization and extension.  I agree with almost everything Mr Patel says about the ramifications of the GOPe House, led by HPSCI Chairman Mike Turner, and the FISA extension.  However, there is also an aspect that 99% of everyone misses, and within that dynamic we become victims to our own willful blindness.  

First, watch the segment on FISA-702 (prompted):

‘HYPOCRISY ON STEROIDS’: Alan Dershowitz says Trump case is a ‘politicization’

To remind….

The CIA director, NSA director, ODNI, FBI Director, etc are not in charge of the compartments they represent. They are simply functionaries -middle men- who operate in the space between where the compass points are directed, where the data originates, and oversight of that data that is ultimately filtered and delivered to the functionaries, who then brief the representatives…. who then create policy… albeit flawed policy…. based on a very specific, controlled, compartmented and skewed information flow. (more)

The value of Kash Patel’s institutional currency is connected to this access, even with Republicans in charge.  The same is true for any other member of the Intelligence Community, including John Ratcliffe, current CIA silo nominee.

As a result, the corrupt DC functionaries operate without any accountability, no corrective action ever takes place, no accountability is metered out, and WORSE…. an oblivious public cheer on people like Kash Patel and many others who give the illusion they are railing against corruption.

For those who choose denial and pretending over the brutal reality, their criticism of me is irrelevant.  The truth exists regardless of our comfort level.

Accepting we are abused victims to professional gaslighting, manipulation and Machiavellian deceit, carried out by those who claim to be our allies, is painful and unnerving.  However, failing to accept the reality only retains our status as victims; we become codependent enablers and battered conservatives.  The surveillance system continues to be assembled and refined. It is a remarkable dynamic.

Many people can now see how DC functionaries played this intelligence game against President Donald Trump, using the false justification of “national security.”  However, those same voices cannot see how we are continually being played by the same defenders of a corrupt system within DC.

Changing the system first begins by awakened people thinking about the long-term ramifications from what is being assembled.  What is the value of national security, when the liberty that secures the values of America is destroyed in the process?

Either the Fourth Amendment means something, or it does not!

I don’t know anything about this publication.

That said, “It appears the article is an example of a free press doing its job.”

From what I could tell, it was not a hit piece, but a laying out of things which can easily be checked and verified.

The NSC’s senior director for intelligence is the president’s interlocutor with the 18 intelligence agencies that make up the IC ....

Why do we need 18 intelligence agencies?

Wasn’t it just announced yesterday that all of the current NSC staff was expected to give their resignations at 12:01 on Jan 20th, and be replaced? One of the Vindman brothers was complaining about it.

It seems like this is an outdated article.
