Protected: The National Security Advisor – Trump Staffing 2025


Posted originally on the CTH on August 2, 2024 | Sundance

The National Security Advisor to the President is another of the key roles within the White House that is critical to defend against the weaponized Intelligence Community.  In a second term as president, we anticipate Donald Trump will again face opposition from both parties in congress and from every created silo operation in the administrative deep state.

Accepting in advance that any appointees to the Executive Branch agencies in charge of the Intelligence System, are not going to be able to change the outcomes from within those agencies, then strategizing how to confront the rogue intelligence state becomes a more honest exercise.

The National Security Advisor is going to have to navigate an intelligence community that is fully weaponized and adverse to the interests of the White House.  Every element of the IC, the “six ways to Sunday” team, will work actively and behind the scenes to undermine the office of the President.  Any attack vectors will be fully exploited, by the IC and nothing should be considered out of bounds.

The leaders of the CIA, FBI, DIA, DHS and NSA will all lie to the President.   That’s what these institutions do now. They are part of the 4th branch of government, and they consider themselves omnipotent due to the structure of the legislative changes and oversight after 9-11.  Notice I left out the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, ODNI, I did that on purpose.

The NatSec Advisor to President Trump is going to have to work through an entirely weaponized fourth branch of government in order to survive it, let alone destroy it.  As a consequence, the Nat Sec Advisor needs to be a person with deep understanding of how the intelligence system inside Washington DC works, as well as carrying a profound distrust for them.

Any person who trusts any product created by the IC should be immediately disqualified from any position in our constitutional government.  Additionally, any person who intentionally maintains the system of pretending (Robert Mueller was honorable etc.), is automatically disqualified.

The National Security Advisor does not need to be confirmed.  The NSA person is unilaterally picked by President Trump and the entire executive branch was just reminded by SCOTUS that POTUS is in charge of everything.  This should be a big arrow in the quiver of the NatSecAdvisor.

The National Security Advisor is also the chair of the National Security Counsel (NSC).  The NSC is the working group in the White House specifically tasked with formulating analysis on events from their skills on specific issues.  The National Security Advisor does the NSC hiring and firing.  Trump needs a lot of firing assistance.

When the IC was weaponized by George W Bush and Barack Obama, the DNI fulcrum point was never used much as part of the process.  The DNI sits at the center of all intelligence information and maintains the pivot on the National Security Radar that now sweeps a full circle.

Prior to the Patriot Act the national security radar swept outward from the border looking at national security threats overseas.  Back and forth, back and forth, the radar swept looking for foreign adversaries who might target the USA.  The Patriot Act put a ball joint on the radar that now conducts surveillance sweeps in a circle, including over all Americans.

The Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) was created to be the depository for all intelligence products.   Intelligence assembled on foreign threats (CIA) can be reviewed by domestic handlers (FBI and DHS).   When Bush created the office and later when Obama weaponized the office, they installed people who would just go along with whatever the FBI side and CIA side told them to do.  The ODNI was created to be the stupid pivot man.

However, looking at the system in totality, it is my belief that if a really smart person was in the ODNI position, they could control a great deal and even impede the activity happening both domestically (FBI/DOJ) and abroad (DoS/CIA).   I believe the DNI can crush the system, if the person really looked carefully at their power in the pivot location.

The DNI can control information.  The DNI can starve the beast.

Just like the State Dept and CIA work hand in glove to make a mess of the world, so too can the Nat Sec Advisor and DNI work together to deconstruct the domestic intelligence system.  In this process, information is the key.  The DNI can control the information, making it harder for the IC Silos to lie to the National Security Advisor.

[NOTE: control of information is also why the Director of the National Security Agency is also important.  The Director of the NSA is essentially the librarian for all data.  The librarian can control who enters the library if the right people in the Executive Branch (POTUS, Nat Sec Advisor and ODNI) give the Director of the NSA that power (executive action). More on that later.]

The National Security Advisor (hereafter *NSA) needs to be a person who has a comprehensive understanding of the Silos, and a willingness/desire to take them apart.

The *NSA needs to be exceptionally smart, profoundly insightful, intensely strategic, and with a comprehensive knowledge of the DC system.  The *NSA also needs to be stable from attack by the IC defense system.  The ideal *NSA will have an income from outside government that cannot be impacted by the schemes of the IC. The *NSA also needs to be very stable, grounded, logical and thoughtful.

This set of character traits, in combination with the knowledge needed, disqualifies almost everyone in DC.   Steve Bannon is a chatterbox who doesn’t know when to keep his mouth shut, and he has a massive ego.  Kash Patel is not strategic enough and maintains the pretending game in order to present himself as a man of value.  Peter Navarro is loyal but has some of those key judgement issues that can be exploited by the IC, and he’s not very smart.

Former Nat Sec Advisor Michael Flynn disqualified himself from further consideration by poor judgement.  Don’t forget, Flynn was an agent for a foreign government (Turkey 2016) and never told candidate Trump, thereby setting the Trump administration up for compromise.  Flynn then claims he didn’t see the risk of an FBI interview in his office and never told the White House Counsel of his intent to be interviewed by the FBI.  You cannot claim Flynn is smart and reconcile that with his stupidity.

All of the previous names might be good additions to the National Security Council, but no way should any of those names get close to a position where their failure to deliver can cause damage to the larger goal.

As a result, there is a very small field of candidates, very small, who might be able to pull off the role of National Security Advisor.  At the top of that list is probably Devin Nunes.   I qualify with a “probably” because Nunes has one massive Achilles heel in my opinion.

Devin Nunes believes in the system.  He believes in the FISC and FISA (702).  Nunes believes in large aspects of the surveillance state, and he believes in the roles and responsibilities within government as it pertains to the Intelligence Community.

Nunes believes the system is good, and that its just being operated by bad people. This is where Mr Nunes and I diverge.  However, I am willing to undermine my position and say that perhaps we need a person who believes in government.  Maybe that’s the type of character trait that can be a good benefit.  I don’t know.  Maybe I’m too jaded and just want it all stripped down to nothing.

What I do know, is that Devin Nunes would never intentionally screw stuff up, and he’d never intentionally undermine President Trump.  Nunes is super loyal, and he loves our country.

I don’t know if he would take the job of National Security Advisor (he would probably want CIA director). However, with a strategic partner in the DNI office, Devin Nunes could give us a solid chance.

Why Chuck Schumer Should be Removed from the Senate for his Usurpation of Power

Schummer NO KINGS Act2024_08_01_18_51_22_In_an_attempt_to_reverse_the_Supreme_Court_s_immunity_decision_Schumer_introduc

With each passing day, our Nation is declining into a state of where civilization is no longer sustainable. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has introduced legislation seeking to strip Donald Trump of any immunity for his definition of a criminal action, in a blatant usurpation of power where he seeks to reverse the Supreme Court’s landmark decision on Trump’s Immunity calling this the “No Kings Act” where he has asserted the unconstitutional attempt to strip[ the Supreme Court completely stating that ONLY Congress, not the Supreme Court, determines to whom federal criminal law is applied.

Schumer had better study law if he wants to pretend to be outraged over the Supreme Court’s Immunity decision regarding Trump. He would NEVER say a word if it was concerning Biden. People like Schumer are destroying the United States with their Marxist agenda. He should look at the immunity that senators and representatives have as laid out in Article I that they are “privileged from Arrest during their Attendance at the Session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same; and for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place.” The Founding Fathers put that in the Constitution, for they knew that people like Schumer would pull every trick to manipulate the country back then. Yet, all we hear is that Trump should be prosecuted for his speech on January 6th.

Schumer is a complete hypocrite, and I find it really offensive the antics he constantly pulls that are dividing the country. He should also look at the fact that the Attorney General is ABSOLUTELY IMMUNE even if he recklessly indicts Trump or if a prosecutor brings charges against you, even for personal reasons. The Supreme Court previously held

“A state prosecuting attorney who, as here, acted within the scope of his duties in initiating and pursuing a criminal prosecution and in presenting the State’s case, is absolutely immune from a civil suit for damages under § 1983 for alleged deprivations of the accused’s constitutional rights.”

Imbler v. Pachtman, 424 U.S. 409 (1976)

Ex Post Facto

On top of the question of Immunity, the very foundation of Due Process of Law is NOTICE: They cannot pass a law after you did something to make then it a crime. This rhetoric coming from Schumer is so damaging to the country; he is driving our nation into civil war because he is out of control and believes himself to be a demigod, pushing his political vendetta against every principle of law and the building blocks that were the foundation of our country. He is a vile supporter of the DEEP STATE. To even come out like this shows that he should honestly be arrested for what he is doing to our country. He supported the denial of any right to vote for a candidate, keeping RFK off the ballot because this entire candidacy of Harris was a back-room deal. He should look in the mirror to see what he is doing with this NO KINGS ACT.

Schumer’s acts are so anti-American and UNCONSTITUTIONAL that she should not be representing anyone – EVER!

Tripartite Government – Executive – Congress – Supreme Court

The Separation of Powers

Chuck Schumer has violated his oath of office, and this latest bill is a usurpation of power even worse than the Democrat’s exaggeration of January 6th. He should be taken out of the Senate in Chains, for he has sought to destroy everything that the United States was built upon. They have conspired against Trump and RFK because they NEVER want anyone from outside of their little club on Capital Hill.

Obviously, Chuck Schumer is a complete idiot and should not be representing even a stray dog on Capital Hill. If he understood the Constitution, he would know that the bill he has just introduced is so outrageous it borders on not just partisanship but outright Treason against the United States. The leading case that every law student knows is Marbury v. Madison, which is the seminal case on this very subject of the separation of powers.

Marshall John Chief Justice 1

It began in January 1801, when then-President John Adama had been defeated in his reelection bid. There was a vacant seat, and Adams sought to fill the position of Chief Justice at the U.S. Supreme Court before he left office. Adams initially asked former Chief Justice John Jay to return to take the position. However, John Jay turned down the offer. Adams then nominated his Secretary of State and close advisor, John Marshall, who had been a lawyer but never a judge, to take the position on the Supreme Court. Senate unanimously confirmed him for the top spot on the court.

Jefferson vs Adams

With two months left in his term, Adams also asked Marshall to remain simultaneously as his Secretary of State and Chief Justice. Obviously, that was a huge conflict of interest, as he was serving in both the Executive and the Court at the same time. Adams was a Federalist who had just lost the election to his political enemy, Thomas Jefferson. In a partisan move, Adams rushed to fill as many other judicial positions as possible before his political enemy took power. The hatred of Adams toward Jefferson was famous. They both died on July 4, 1826, with Adams at the age of 90 and Jefferson at 83. On his deathbed, Adams spoke his last words: “Thomas Jefferson still survives.” He was mistaken: Jefferson had died five hours earlier at Monticello that same day. Nonetheless, this shows how our nation was also deeply polarized over this issue of centralized Federal absolute control over individual states.

On the day before Adams’ term ended, he nominated 42 men to serve as justices of the peace, who were the lowest judges for minor legal cases, but they were Federalists. After the Senate approved his choices the next day, Marshall was assigned to finalize the paperwork and deliver the commissions. It was a mad rush, and he never got to four of them, including one belonging to a Virginia politician named William Marbury.

Jefferson Retaliates & Withholds the Four Commissions and Marbury Petitions Court

When Thomas Jefferson took the White House, he was somewhat perturbed at Adams’ unethical antic in a desperate attempt to pack the federal courts with political allies. Jefferson told his own Secretary of State, James Madison, to withhold the four undelivered commissions. Marbury sued to get his job. Marbury could have gone to the U.S. Circuit Court of the District of Columbia, where he might have prevailed. However, Marbury went directly to the Supreme Court and petitioned for a Writ of Mandamus, an order to command Madison to give them their commissions.

On February 10th, 1803, the Supreme Court convened to hear the case – Marbury vs Madison. The case centered on three issues. First, did Marbury and the other appointees have a right to their commissions? Second, if they did have a right that had been violated, did federal law provide a remedy? Finally, was an order from the U.S. Supreme Court the proper remedy to solve the problem?

The Marbury v. Madison Decision

Chief Justice Marshall, Adam’s buddy and former Secretary of State, presided over the case. He should have recused himself under today’s ethics since he played a role in the very events in question. The Supreme Court found in Marbury’s favor. However, it wasn’t clear whether Jefferson would obey the Court’s decision or simply ignore it. If Jefferson ignored the Supreme Court, that would have placed the Supreme Court seriously in a position of being irrelevant. If the court ruled in favor of the Jefferson Administration, it would appear like it had given in to political pressure.

Marshall was undoubtedly in a difficult position, and he wrote the decision. He found that Jefferson had violated Marbury’s and the other appointees’ rights when he blocked their commissions since they had already been confirmed and affixed with seals. He further held that Marbury was entitled to sue and seek a legal remedy, and a federal judge could issue a writ ordering Jefferson to comply. This was a very tall order.

Was an order from the U.S. Supreme Court the proper remedy to solve the problem?

Article_III_Section_2_Clause_1_Historical_Background_U.S._Constitution_Anno

However, on the third question, things were very complicated. The Supreme Court’s ability to hear Marbury’s case directly was based upon a portion of the Judicial Act of 1789. This Act gave the court the power to issue writs directly to federal officeholders without a plaintiff going through a lower court. But as Marshall wrote, Article III, Section 2 of the Constitution already specified that the court had original jurisdiction in limited types of cases involving “ambassadors, other public ministers and consuls, and those in which a state shall be party,” and could only act as an appeals court in all others. Therefore, Congress’s enlargement of the Supreme Court’s jurisdiction was unconstitutional. In a landmark decision that has defined the separation of these three branches of government that Chuck Schumer has ignored, Marshall wrote:

“The powers of the legislature are defined and limited; and that those limits may not be mistaken or forgotten, the constitution is written.”

As a result, Marshall concluded, “the Constitution of the United States confirms and strengthens the principle, supposed to be essential to all written constitutions, that a law repugnant to the constitution is void, and that courts, as well as other departments, are bound by that instrument.”

Marshall Establishes the Supreme Court’s Authority

The decision in Marbury v. Madison was immediately recognized across the nation as the profound definition of our nation. The idea that the Supreme Court could overrule an act of Congress actually predated Marbury v. Madison— when Alexander Hamilton argued that very point in The Federalist Papers in 1788—where we find this principle now was firmly established in law. Thus, this case made clear that the ruling established the power of the federal courts over other branches of government to interpret the nation’s laws. Marshall wrote:

“It is emphatically the province and duty of the judicial department to say what the law is.”

“Those who apply the rule to particular cases, must of necessity expound and interpret that rule. If two laws conflict with each other, the courts must decide on the operation of each.”

Today, thanks to Marbury v. Madison, the federal courts’ authority is undisputed. Chuck Schumer has absolutely no justification to be in the Senate. He has rejected the law of the land all for partisan politics. Schumer should be IMPEACHED and removed from office. He is polarizing the country, and it is one thing if his argument is even lawful, but when he seeks to strip the Supreme Court of the very role of deciding what the law is, he has gone too far and should be removed for violating his oath of office and is a disgrace to our nation.

Thrasymachus Quote

As Thrasymachus said some 2500 years ago, JUSTICE is only the self-interest of those in power. Schumer has proven that mixing politics and law is the death sentence for any society. We are rapidly approaching 2032, when it will be time to turn out the lights on the experiment called a Republic. Franklin understood the cycles of time and circumstance.

Guidelines for Comments


Posted originally on the CTH on August 2, 2024 | Sundance 

“Seek first to understand, then to be understood”

1.) First, please READ THIS ENTIRELY – and the full text of any discussion you wish to participate in.

2.) PLEASE STAY ON TOPIC – do not post something unrelated to the specific matter and content of the thread subject. There is ALWAYS a daily open thread available for any subject you feel should get attention. Never place unrelated, “O/T”, or “Off Topic” comments on a thread unrelated to the topic. It is not ok to say: “sorry, O/T but”… or any iteration therein, it is quite rude.

The Treehouse operates on the ‘old school’ standards and practices of civil discourse amid the original blogging community, long before social media took over.

3.) PLEASE NARROW YOUR THOUGHTS – Quality beats quantity. Please construct your comments to target specific areas and not broad generalizations about the discussion topic at hand. If you have four or five disconnected points, break them up into individual comments; that allows people to respond to the specifics.

4.) PLEASE AVOID GENERALIZATIONS – Do NOT speak in riddles. Words like “he, she, they, it, them” should rarely be used. Spell out “who” using the name, spell out who “they” are at the beginning of every sentence in your paragraph; so that there is clarity as to who you are talking about. Please avoid using acronyms.

5.) BLOCK PARAGRAPHS – Do not post huge blocks of text. Think of the reader, and modify your presentation for understanding, not for exclaiming. Do not write to yourself, you are writing to others, so please structure your thoughts so other people can grasp and enjoy. NEVER post massive blocks of text without paragraph breaks.

Do not post huge blocks of text

6.) PARAGRAPHS – Should NEVER be longer than two or three sentences taking up three to five standard lines of text. Again, you are writing to be understood, the emphasis should be on the reader comprehending what you are sharing.

Do not post huge blocks of text

7.) SPELLING AND PUNCTUATION – This is not school, and we do not demerit for poor spelling, nor do we allow anyone to call others out for the same. However, if your construct is too poorly written the context is lost and important details can be missed. Read the comment carefully before you send it. Proofread it again. Does it make sense?

8.) TIME – Everyone ‘s time is valuable. Many of our discussion threads are 500 to 1,000+ comments long. We try to limit the comments to 500 and then post another related thread, but with some research threads it is challenging because we do not want to break a continuity.

9) CITATIONS – There’s a big difference between an opinion and an assertion of fact.  Obviously, most comments are providing opinions, the discussion expands when we hear them.  However, if you are making an assertion of fact, you must attach a citation for review. If you do not have a citation – don’t post; this avoids spreading rumors, gossip and unfounded claims. Also related, do not post random links without an explanation of the reason, purpose and content that is behind the link.

10.) THOUSANDS ARE WATCHING – For every person writing a comment, there are easily hundreds of thousands of reading lurkers on every discussion thread.  Do not disparage our conversation with vulgarity, profanity, or any expressions of any “ism”.

In the modern era of the internet, there are many voices who try to shut down conversation and information sharing.  We put a lot of effort, more than anyone could imagine, into keeping this little corner of the internet open for you to research, share and discuss some pretty important stuff.  Please do not provide ammunition to those who seek information control through deplatforming.

11.) MODERATION / FILTERING THE HATE – Because of our honest approach at seeking facts and truth, and openly discussing various analytical theories along the way, we are bombarded by those with ulterior motives which include:

  • Intentional efforts to distract.
  • Intentional diatribes to affix labels to our objectives.
  • Intentional expressions of rabid hate, vulgarity, and threats.
  • Trolling and professional obfuscation.
  • Concern Trolling as a tool of distraction and derailing conversation.
  • Psy-ops and intentional efforts to diminish fact-finding.

We do our earnest best to stop the agenda-horde at the moderation gates, however sometimes they get through.

If you see something untoward say something. When a new comment surfaces that we view is likely presented only to argue, we watch carefully – but we also are not perfect. You can help. There is a flag feature that helps identify trouble.  Also, feel free to alert us via email.

12.) MANNERS MATTER – Simple kindnesses and courtesy should always be present in tone and content. When writing, ask yourself before you hit send: does this add value?

13.) NO PERSONAL ATTACKS – Ever. The fastest way to lose commenting privileges is to ridicule, bully or personally attack another person’s opinion or comment. Unfortunately, people, often good people, let their passion interfere with good manners and personal judgement. If you cannot be polite or respectful, pause – and – do not comment.

14.) TONE and HONESTY – Often the information and research CTH provides are about challenges we face and/or events that are hidden from larger review. It can be frustrating to see the scale of corruption; however, only you control how that information is absorbed by you. The truth doesn’t care about our feelings. Try to keep an even keel and optimistic disposition.

15.) DEVICES – It is a reality that many people use their phones to browse information and/or comment. Cellular phones and iPads are okay for reading, but also present challenges in commenting. Please make every effort to avoid the run-on issue of text from these devices. Put extra spaces in your paragraphs. Also remember your service provider (ISP) may have filters to limit the websites they permit you to view. It’s not CTH, nine out of ten issues are related to your service provider.

This control issue is worse in 2024 for obvious reasons.

SUMMARY: The Tree House community has historically accomplished a lot. Through exhaustive research and analysis our accuracy and reputation for truthful fact-finding, regardless of discomfort, is well regarded. Retain that distinction of intellectual armament.

We are The Conservative Tree House, not because of any political affiliation, but rather because the word “conservative” expresses our outlook. We would rather be deep, than wide; we would rather be honest, than popular; we avoid semantics in favor of accurately presenting both intention and meaning.

We are bold in our willingness to go into conversational places where others do not, and we are brave enough to stand firm for principles which are time tested.

We would rather advertise our outlook, so the viewer can understand our perspective on a particular subject, than deceptively claim we are something else and deliver an inherently biased view. The entire spectrum of the MSM is based on the latter.

Every reader knows where we stand on almost any issue, and our opinions -while they may be unpopular- are based on solid research and analytical insight into the subject matter at hand. This is why our predictive analysis is routinely more accurate than others.

Lastly, and most importantly, this Treehouse is a conversation.  A place to connect and realize you are not alone.  There really are more intellectually honest, kind and pragmatic problem solvers, than people who choose to be angry and comfortable with perpetual conflict.

Hopefully, a visit to this little corner of the internet is just like sitting on a porch with friends.  And because the “conversation” is the reason we are here, this means YOU are important; do not diminish yourself.

[Remember] …” However, each of us got here, it’s probably a fact that we have the turmoil of those storms in common, perhaps some unease that we could share and always, we also find fresh ground to cover from day to day.

We’re developing valuable relationships as we trust one another in our community in the woods. The chatting in the branches encourages, strengthens and equips for some serious walking.

We think the Treehouse is a good intellectual armory for those who doing long distance walking for the sake of our nation. We hope you’ll think so, too. Find yourself a good branch….or just pull up a rock to the campfire”.

Wolverines faithfully patrol the perimeter.

Humor is also a good way to avoid fear. A laugh in a foxhole is priceless.

Be kind and please be respectful… Manners really do matter… after all, this is a fellowship.

Love to all,

In reading the responses about “the emissary” post, I am reminded why our nation is in this mess, and the scale of trying to get people to fathom the depth of our national problems.

If you are one of the few voices who comprehend who and what an “emissary” is, as well as how they are needed, then you will understand why any further posts of mine on the 2025 topic are going to be password protected.

Head’s up.  In order for the comment section to be of value to me, it needs to be an intellectual discussion by smart people who understand politics.  I am going to apply the password for all future threads on the 2025 topic and then I can more effectively use the blacklist banner for the govt-aligned voices who try to hijack and steer the conversation.

My thoughts and advice on the subject matter are the result of thousands and thousands of hours work, specifically categorizing every granular issue in DC and how it functions amid a corrupt and weaponized silo system.  I don’t pretend.

95% of the opinion you are reading about presidential positions, qualifications and expectations are based on people who hold pretenses, intentionally or, in many cases, accidentally, because they just don’t know better.   Some people think DC corruption is really, really bad. Trust me, it’s worse than that.

My thoughts on staffing, roles and responsibilities are from a pragmatic place of what can reasonably be expected to be achieved.  CTH has never joined this nonsensical “trusty-planner” mindset.  There is no plan.  There never was a plan.  There is one guy, Donald Trump, trying to enact policies to the benefit of the American people.  Every democrat and every republican want him to fail.

“It must be remembered that there is nothing more difficult to plan, more doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to manage than a new system. For the initiator has the enmity of all who would profit by the preservation of the old institution and merely lukewarm defenders in those who gain by the new ones.” ― Niccolò Machiavelli

On the Melania topic. Those who have been paying close attention, very close attention, will note you should not expect to see as much of Mrs Trump in the second term. By all outward appearances she’s done with American politics and keeping Barron out of that life is her priority.  Melania Trump will fulfill the role of First Lady, and she will do it better than any other, but that’s it.

I suspect in 2025 and beyond, official duties and responsibilities is where the schedule ends for First Lady Melania Trump.  She showed up to the RNC Convention and carried out that same role/responsibility.  Melania kept Baron away from the convention for the same purpose. She’ll continue the same standard after President Trump wins in November.

Donald Trump Jr loves American politics and will joyfully bring his family and children into it.  This puts Melania and DJT Jr at opposite ends of the issue.  Remember that.  DJT Jr has aspirations. Also, remember that.

The next “2025-Term 2” post will hit on the very important role of the National Security Advisor (NSA).  That post will be password protected because the comments section needs to be intellectual discussion about the ramifications of the presentation.   [Yes, when you see the scale of the problem you are part of the very select 3% group and you prepare your life accordingly.]

The NSA position is critical.  The Intelligence Community will lie to President Trump.

The Nat Sec Advisor intercepts the lies, evaluates the issue to find the small granules of truth; then presents truthful options to President Trump.  The Nat Sec advisor must know the silo system like the back of his hand.  He must know every detail about how it operates, and he must be willing to fight against the AG, DoS, FBI and CIA.

The NatSec Advisor must be strategic, smart and have EXCEPTIONAL judgement.  It would also be beneficial if the The NatSec Advisor had an external compartmented financial resource system – meaning, he was (real world) independently wealthy of DC and ambivalent to the financial interests of the MAGA grifting community.

The NatSec Advisor needs as few attack vectors as possible.  If the NSA is vulnerable, he’s useless.

The traits of impenetrable judgement, stability, brutal honesty and understanding, disqualify names like Patel, Bannon, Flynn, Navarro et al and 95% of the people previously presented.   Now you see the problem.  Michael Flynn and Kash Patel might be good on the National Security Council, which is headed by the NatSec Advisor, but in the primary role, no way; too risky.  more later…

I am going to start giving honest examples of recent history and reminders of human-trait issues that will make people uncomfortable.  I don’t care. The truth is ambivalent about feelings.   We need results.

The Emissary – Trump Staffing 2025


Posted originally on the CTH on August 1, 2024 | Sundance 

The introduction is here [CATCH UP], I am not going to slow down, re-review and/or rewrite anything. We have a limited amount of time, and the focus of these outlines is easy to understand.

In the next few weeks, I am going to write very specifically about who might be best suited for roles and responsibilities. Not from the perspective of the person per se’, but rather from the perspective of a fully understandable context for the position; the reality of what can be pragmatically accomplished, and detailed reasoning for why the challenge they will face exists. Today I focus on “the emissary.”

Without a doubt in my mind, the “emissary” is the most important person President Trump will select.

The Washington DC Intelligence Community (IC) actively work to isolate the office of the president.  This is an almost impossible dynamic to avoid, caused by an entrenched and ideological adversary who has dug themselves deep into the apparatus of government.

The “emissary” is the person who carries the word of President Trump to any person identified by President Trump.  The emissary is very much like a tape recording of President Trump in human form.  The emissary travels to a location, meets a particular person or group, and then recites the opinion of the President.  The words spoken by the emissary, are the words of President Trump.

The IC cannot inject themselves into this dynamic; that is why it is so valuable.

The emissary then hears the response from the intended person or group, repeats it back to them to ensure he/she will return with clarity of intent as expressed, and then returns to the office of the presidency and repeats the reply for the President.  The emissary recites back exactly what he was /is told.

This process is critical when you understand how thoroughly compromised the full Executive Branch is.  More importantly, this process becomes even more critical when you accept the Intelligence Community will lie to the office of the President to retain their position.

Read this next sentence slowly…. If the Senate confirms a director of an IC silo, then that director is demonstrably going to lie to the office of the President.

The Senate only confirms Intelligence Community leadership who are willing to LIE to THE PRESIDENT.    This is just a factual reality.

If the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI) confirms them, they will lie.  That is the main role of the SSCI.

The people who constructed the Silos then metastasized the control rot within them, use the term “continuity of government,” to describe the true role and responsibility of the system.  This is not factually wrong.

Where people go wrong is misunderstanding what the “continuity” is that is being maintained.  Truly, the continuity of government is the priority. However, it’s the continuity of currently corrupt and immoral government we are now maintaining.

The CIA Director will lie to President Trump (they did, remember).  The FBI Leadership will lie to President Trump (they did, remember).  The AG will lie, the DNI will lie, the NSA will lie, and all the deputies therein will lie.

Washington DC puts it this way, you probably heard Bill Barr talking about ad-infinitum.  The IC leadership is responsible for maintaining the “continuity of government” at all costs.  The government is more important than The President.

If the continuity of government is maintained by lying to the office of the President, then so be it.  Or, as James Comey said when justifying his lies to the President and his manipulation on March 20th, 2017: “because of the sensitivity of the matter.”

You can get as angry as you want about this, it’s just the DC system that exists.  We must deal with what exists, not what we would pretend there to be.

If a candidate for an IC position is not willing to lie to the President, the Senate will not confirm him/her.   This is why President Trump needs an emissary.

The role of the emissary is critical, the qualifications for that role are extremely important.

Remember, this person is speaking on behalf of President Trump.  And representing the responding voice with a similar level of clarity.

The emissary must be of incredible moral character.  They must be honest.  The person should be entirely altruistic.  They must have exceptional judgement, possess no ego, be impervious to scrutiny or review. They must maintain themselves at the highest moral standards at all times and exhibit incredible judgement and wisdom.

Due to the nature of the position the emissary is extremely powerful; therefore, a disposition of humility is also critical.  The President must be able to trust this person without reservation or issue.  At the same time, the entire weight of the U.S. Intelligence Community apparatus will seek to compromise the emissary, as they try to put walls around the President who holds silo-busting power.

Honesty, integrity, humility, trustworthiness, unimpeachable character and exceptional judgement, establish the baseline of traits the emissary must possess.

This is a choice that will be deeply important to President Trump.  Fortunately, it is not a position that requires any confirmation or external approval.  Judgement, discernment, wisdom and silence are the strength characteristics.

From my perspective, I can think of only one qualified candidate, Dr Ben Carson.  However, I could be wrong – I do not know the sum total of the people around President Trump.

Tucker Carlson Interviews Tech CEO Amjad Masad


 originally on the CTH on August 1, 2024 | Sundance

Tech CEO Amjad Masad talks to Tucker Carlson about the cults of Silicon Valley.  Indeed, I think we can all see a modern Technocratic shift taking place.

10:01 Bitcoin
22:30 The Extropians Cult

1:26:37 Silicon Valley Turning to Donald Trump
1:40:20 Elon Musk and Free Speech

♦ BIG PICTURE – Are the newest group of billionaire Silicon Valley tech leaders currently supporting MAGA Trump/Vance, really a modern assembly of the Green Dragon rebels in Boston, plotting the next Tea Party rebellion.  Or are they simply just the other side of a new modern Technocratic control system, aligned with and dependent on government?

The Obama-era ‘Technocracy‘ was based on public-private partnerships with social media.  This was the origin of the surveillance state that now scours, controls, filters, censors and ultimately monetizes your social media data profile.  The operational and business model is cemented into the process now. Everyone accepts it. Terms and conditions apply, and if you don’t agree, you can’t use.

Is the pending Trump-era ‘Technocracy‘ a rebrand, pushing social media off to the side (that part is done) and bringing data processing control agents, artificial intelligence software designers, big money venture capitalists, banks and those who are creating digital id systems. Does Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, Bill Ackman, David Sacks, Chamath Palihapitiya, Jacob Helberg and Vivek Ramaswamy, now occupy the empty chairs around the table of Technocracy?

Was the 5/10-year business model in the mind of tech billionaire Peter Thiel what led him to recruit JD Vance in 2013. Was it a financial decision blended with ideology to guide, finance and support JD Vance all the way to 2022 and 2024?  Was JD Vance an investment?

Truly, I suspect our gut knows the answer.

That’s why my approach is to say, “here’s the factual data – trust your instincts.”

Tucker Carlson Interviews Senator Mike Lee About Biden’s Forced Removal and Those Who Control DC


Posted originally on the CTH on July 31, 2024 | Sundance

In the first part of the interview with Mike Lee, Tucker Carlson asks his opinion of the Hersch research discussing how Barack Obama threatened Joe Biden into exiting from the 2024 campaign.  Obviously, this led to the installation of Kamala Harris as the nominee, which was the long game of those within the Obama network who still operate the control mechanisms in Washington DC.

As with all DC interviews of participants, keep in mind that Senator Lee operates within a bubble, a construct of intentionally created information “silos,” and as a result -just like all other participants in the industry of Deep State management- Mike Lee is somewhat limited by what he can see.  Voices like Senator Lee, stuck in the silo operations, do not generally have as much big picture information as ordinary Americans; he sees what is outside his window and that frames his reality.  WATCH:

Biden And Harris Want To Destroy SCOTUS Because SCOTUS Stands In The Left’s Way

Supreme Court Term Limits?


Posted Jul 29, 2024 By Martin Armstrong 

Alaska Supreme Court

Joe Biden declared that implementing term limits would be one of his last acts before vanishing from Washington. No, he is not demanding that Congress heed to term limits. Biden himself is a career politician who profited from a lifetime of rubbing elbows with the establishment at the expense of the people. He would not dare to implement laws that would hurt his remaining allies in Washington. The real reason that the establishment want justices to have term limits is because they fear a Trump majority SCOTUS.

The Supreme Court of the United States was created over 233 years ago in 1789 and there have been 116 serving Justices. Justices are appointed for life, with the average Justice serving for around 16 years. Cyclically, a new judge enters the SCOTUS every two to three years.

“The next president is likely to have two new Supreme Court nominees. Two more. He’s already appointed two that have been very negative in terms of rights of individuals,” Biden commented. Trump named three justices during his term – Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanagh and Amy Coney Barrett – cementing the conservative majority on the bench.”

Supreme Court v Congress

The Democrats are using abortion, Roe v. Wade, as their reasoning behind abolishing the current structure of the highest court. These politicians do not care about human rights. They are angered that the SCOTUS has ruled against the establishment time and time again. The court denied the establishment the opportunity to force Trump off the ballot. Even the liberal Justices unanimously agreed that states do not have the authority to enforce Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment.

The Supreme Court has overturned Chevron U.S.A. v. Natural Resources Defense Council, which permitted government agencies to implement the rule of law, bypassing the federal judicial system. Absolutely every facet of American life is partially controlled by unelected government agencies who need not abide by a uniform rule of law before implementing regulations. Revoking the Chevron doctrine took away tools of the deep state such as forcing the EPA to carry out climate imitative or permitting the FDA to advocate government-approved COVID-19 treatments. Even the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has lost power in controlling America’s financial markets as a result of this ruling.

There is no place for constitutional law in an increasingly tyrannical justice system.

Biden could only implement term limits through an amendment to the Constitution itself or pushing legislation through congress. A proposed constitutional amendment must receive two-thirds of support by state legislations. Thirty-eight of the 50 members must agree to ratification. This option would leave less room for interpretation or continued legal review.

The second method would be implementing legislation through Congress, and it would be of no surprise if a bill is currently being drafted. The House and Senate would need to agree on such term limits without overtly abandoning Article III of the Constitution that outlines the power of the judicial branch.

All politicians should have term limits to prevent careers that lead to corruption and tyranny. The American justice system was based upon the Roman Republic, which collapsed because of pervasive internal corruption by career politicians. A Roman dictator was a magistrate of the Roman Republic, to whom they entrusted the full authority of the state to deal with some emergency or to undertake a specific duty. Every other magistrate was subordinate to his rule. Even the right of the plebeian tribunes, which no one could touch and had the power to charge politicians, could not veto his actions, and any right to appeal was extremely limited. We see a similar aspect in the US Congress because each side will oppose the other to deprive them of any credit. However, at least a dictator could not be bribed.

A Roman dictation could never roam freely and charge people with crimes outside of his appointed purpose. We see special prosecutors like Mueller violate his authority in this manner. Additionally, a Roman dictator was obligated to resign his office once his appointed task had been completed.

If the SCOTUS faces term limits, then all public officials should be held to the same standard. We are watching the likes of Joe Biden preferring to waste away in office than to step down. We witness them profiting through insider trading, and even the “big man” in the highest office was coerced into bringing the entire nation into a war to protect his special interests. The power to indict must be taken away from the Department of Justice and that decision should be also presented to a panel of independent lawyers who make that decision, not a prosecutor. There should also be no prosecutorial immunity. America must be restored to a system that is FOR THE PEOPLE.

It All Tracks – Hersch Reports Barack Obama Threatened Biden with 25th Amendment Removal


Posted originally on the CTH on July 28, 2024 | Sundance 

In popular lingo young people simply say, “that tracks.”  It’s a quick way of saying, new information makes sense with pre-existing information.

Investigative journalist Seymour Hersch writes on his substack [SEE HERE], an article outlying how his sources in Washington DC and the White House have confirmed to him that former President Barack Obama was the impetus to push Joe Biden out of the 2024 presidential race.

Seymour Hersh says President Obama was “deeply involved” with the alleged coup and called Joe Biden after his “incident” in Las Vegas, which, from all outward appearances, looks like a major slip and fall – with a significant hit to the head.

“I went over [reports] this week with a senior official in Washington who helped me fashion an account of a White House in complete disarray,” Hersh said.

“Obama called Biden after breakfast [on July 20] and said, ‘Here’s the deal. We have Kamala’s approval to invoke the 25th Amendment,’” a senior Washington official told Hersh. Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and Hakeem Jeffries were reportedly directly involved.

Obama’s plan was to not to immediately endorse Kamala, but it was clear that she would “get the nod.” “[Obama] had an agenda and he wanted to seek it through to the end, and he wanted to have control over who would be elected.” (Hersch article encapsulated)

Not only does this outline track with every datapoint known about events leading up to the Biden announcement, it also aligns with the entire background of the Obama team operating inside the Biden administration.  Team Obama have always been in control.  Heck, the Obamas never even left Washington DC after their term in office.

The bigger understanding is in the final quote cited.  “[Team Obama] had an agenda and he wanted to seek it through to the end, and he wanted to have control over who would be elected.”  This is the part where people forget the risk to Team Obama that has never gone away.

The Obama “fundamental change” was a construct of malicious intent.  Much of it fraught with unlawful activity only possible by weaponizing the various agencies and bureaus of the U.S. government.  Going all the way back to 2007 through 2017, that decade is filled with unlawful action by Barack Obama and the people behind him.  This is the core of their ongoing need for control, likely for a generation or more.

President Obama and his likeminded ideological foot-soldiers weaponized the federal system of government.  In every action from the moment he left office, Obama’s team have been working one long continuum of control in order to keep all of their prior activity hidden.  The need for Kamala ‘brat’ Harris is simply another step in this long process to hide the activity.

The NSA Database was weaponized to conduct political surveillance.

The Dept of Justice was weaponized to target their political opposition.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation was weaponized to act as the police investigative units for those targets.

The Dept of Homeland Security was weaponized to control the evidence and information about their political targeting and surveillance.

The IRS was weaponized against Obama’s political opposition.

The Office of the Director of National Intelligence was weaponized to allow the targeting radar to sweep internally against American citizens under the guise of national security and domestic terror threats.

The Central Intelligence Agency was weaponized allowing and permitting their “foreign surveillance” mandate to merge with the DHS internal surveillance mandate, while simultaneously the CIA conducted overseas political operations against the interests of sovereign countries.  All of their activity in ideological alignment.

The Defense Department was purged of patriotism, intentionally weakened through diversity equity and inclusion, and then boiled down to a flag corps of general willing to go along with the policy of Obama.

Main Justice through the National Security Division used FARA violations to target anyone who was determined a threat to the fundamental change, and Main Justice began wholesale Lawfare operations against Donald Trump and any entity who would dare align with him.

Hundreds of millions, likely billions, were funneled through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, The Green New Deal, The Inflation Reduction Act, and various legislative expenditures to foreign governments; those funds went directly into the bank accounts of Democrat donors and political activist groups.

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg, the part the awakened American public can look into and see for themselves. Underneath the waterline, there’s tens of thousands of vested interests, inside and outside of Washington DC, operating to maintain the fundamental change that Obama created.  However, their defenses are weak and shallow, fraught with vulnerability and the endless need to avoid sunlight.

All of that scheming, rot, corruption and unlawful activity makes them vulnerable.  The need for control is a reaction to fear.  The ‘fundamental change’ group are fraught with fear.  That is why they consider the current political landscape as a zero-sum contest.

It tracks, it all tracks.
