Amid all the other things that have rattled the deep state -- notably the search and seizure of evidence from Trump-hating John Bolton's residence and office -- President Trump has quietly shut down the 'five eyes' intelligence arrangement between the English-speaking countries -- the U.S., the U.K., Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, rocking the deep-state's overseas allies, too. The comity is over.
Which makes sense, given that these countries are now electing leftists, not moving in tandem with the U.S. on the policy front. It was one thing for Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher to pool intelligence about a common enemy. It's quite another for President Trump to be doing the same with the likes of Keir Starmer and Mark Carney, even if they're able to maintain civility with Trump, unlike a lot of leftists. They are simple going their own way. They have no common enemy. The same as true for whatever they've got Down Under.
But that's the broadest picture.
The secondary picture is that this alliance attempted to undercut President Trump during his first term. An alliance isn't much use if the allies have decided that you are the common enemy. More disgusting still, they have yet to admit their error, meaning, they will do it again, so bye-bye, bozos.
American Thinker's retired founder, Thomas Lifson, has been keeping an eye on this picture and has written a terrific analysis of the picture, drawing on the credible sources he knows. On his Substack, which I believe is free to read, his analysis is must-reading for all the angles and backstories that make this alliance a thing of the past.
He writes:
The “Five Eyes” intelligence sharing arrangement has put the United States’ hundred billion dollar+ intelligence budget at the service of the UK, Australia, Canada

unfortunately those other countries no longer have the ethics we aspire to. Our government is bad as well. But at least we are trying to be good.
Of course this is a big win for China and Russia.
Whoa—fantastic move!

The governments of Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom are not our allies.
The citizens, yes.
The Deep States waging war on them, and on us, no.
Whoaa
Thanks
“Trump shuts down ‘Five Eyes’ alliance and good riddance”
Yep, our privacy protections PROHIBIT the US government from spying on us. They do not prohibit the UK government from spying on us and then sending that information to Leftists running the US. Same for vice-versa.
About damn time that loophole was CLOSED.
Bfl
How is it a big win for Russia and China if Tulsi and Trump stop the Five Eyes “ intel sharing” that leftist IC traitors used to spy on Americans here in the USA to circumvent supposed controls to stop our CIA and NSA from doing so?
Bullseye! HOORAY President Trump and DNI Director Gabbard!
Now that the anglosphere has transformed into the islamofascistsphere, it makes complete sense to cut ties and treat them as the enemy of America.
From Showalter part in this: "...these countries are now electing leftists, not moving in tandem with the U.S. on the policy front."
While not Lifson's insight verbatim, this tells much. We need remember that our United States also elected Leftists, as one watched the "fundamental transformation" of Obama and Biden's idiocy, not forgetting Newson, Hochul and Pritzker among others.
It has seemed to me that those remaining "four eyes" had been trying as tails to wag the dog these last many years. Ditto with the parade of European leaders (which included the supra-EU Commission and Rutte) who descended on DC last week for their photo-op and "many eyes" meeting.
When Tamerlan Tsarnaev was discovered to be a terror threat, it was the Russian and Israeli intelligence arms that warned the FBI, not any of the four eyes. Of course the criminally incompetent Robert Mueller ignored it, and the Boston Marathon attack happened, but the Intel was there. We get almost nothing from the “Anglos” and far more from Mossad.
“Of course this is a big win for China and Russia.“
You’re joking, right?
One or more of those shitbirds have likely been passing everything we share right on to one or both of those commies. Not to mention Iran and others.
"Five Eyes is a deep state portal. The architects and propagators of the attacks on Trump 45 used Five Eyes to try to give their slander and propaganda a veneer of authenticity. It’s a rotten organization."
Some of the other comments are worthy as well. "No mention of the treacherous acolyte of Brennan, Gina Haspel who consorted with the Brits to harm Trump. The Five Eyes people were anti Trump and Haspel worked in UK and then as CIA Chief to screw Trump whenever she could. She was one of Trump’s worst personnel choices in the 45 adminstraton—a viper in the sheets."
Wonder if the timing of this is related to the John Bolton raids in any way... 🤔
Next, NATO.
How is getting out of a group that quite likely helped our Deep State install the POTATUS, and certainly kept the POTATUS’s secrets, a win for the ChiComs or the Rooskies??
My bet is both are excreting bricks this morning.
Not to mention the remaining Four Eyes.
And that sooooo works for me.
