The Youngest Cabinet in Recent US History?

Donald J. Trump may be one of the oldest presidents in US history, but he has selected the youngest cabinet in recent history. We are seeing the rise of the Millennial generation (born between 1981 and 1996). Even Vice President-Elect J.D. Vance is a Millennial at 40.

Millennials appointed to Trump’s cabinet:

Tulsi Gabbard: 43

Matt Gaetz: 42

Elise Stefanik: 40

Steven Miller: 39

Vivek Ramaswamy: 39

Trump Cabinet Meeting

Joe Biden has one of the oldest cabinets in US history. He only has four cabinet members under the age of 50, the youngest being Pete Buttigieg at 42. The median age in Biden’s cabinet is 61.7 compared to Trump’s potential median of 50.8.

Millennials experienced 9/11 in their youth, the Great Recession in early adulthood, and are now the first generation less well off than their parents. Gen X is also well represented among Trump’s nominations.

Critics say they lack the necessary experience. Some forget that the Founding Fathers of this nation were quite young, with James Monroe and Marquis de Lafayette being only 18 years old at the time America was formed. The average age of the signers of the Declaration of Independence was 44, with the average age for the Constitution coming in at 45. George Washington was only 44 in 1776, John Hancock was 39, James Madison, 36, Thomas Jefferson, 33, John Jay, 43, and Alexander Hamilton was 21. Yes, life expectancy was different, but these men shaped history without decades of political experience.

The next generation must actually live with the consequences of the legislation they pass or fail to pass. Many of them have young children who will also grow up in the political landscape they create. That generation understands the current state of the economy and that it is far different for younger generations. Trump is perhaps leaving behind a legacy by appointing a youthful cabinet. He has stated he believes in term limits and does not want to create an atmosphere of career politicians.

President Trump Announces FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr

Brendan Carr has been the censorship buster, investigating Newsguard, Facebook and social media censors directly. Today President Trump announces that Brendan Carr will be moved to the FCC Commissioner’s Chair.

“I first nominated Commissioner Carr to the FCC in 2017, and he has been confirmed unanimously by the United States Senate three times. His current term runs through 2029 and, because of his great work, I will now be designating him as permanent Chairman.”

“Facebook, Google, Apple, Microsoft & others have played central roles in the censorship cartel,” Carr captioned a letter to CEOs Tim Cook of Apple, Satya Nadella of Microsoft, Mark Zuckerberg of Meta and Google parent company Alphabet’s Sundar Pichai shared on X. “The Orwellian named NewsGuard along with ‘fact checking’ groups & ad agencies helped enforce one-sided narratives. The censorship cartel must be dismantled.” {LINK}

Sunday Talks – Vivek Ramaswamy Outlines Intention of New Dept of Government Efficiency


Posted originally on the CTH on November 17, 2024 | Sundance 

The co-chair of the new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), Vivek Ramaswamy, appears with Maria Bartiromo to discuss the goals and intentions of the DOGE effort.

Ms Bartiromo continues to pull the conversation back to the need for Ramaswamy and Musk to go to the legislative branch for permission to reduce government waste.  Over and over again, Ms Bartiromo frames this discussion around: DOGE must go to congress for permission.

Note to Ms. Bartiromo.  DOGE is an initiative of the Executive Branch; specifically, an authorized agency with authorized officials carrying the plenary and absolute power of the Presidency.  The President is the Executive.  The Dept of Govt Efficiency, along with all of the other institutions and offices mentioned by Bartiromo, are subsidiaries within the Executive Branch.

This is the Executive Branch, a plenary power, reducing the size of the Executive Branch and eliminating waste within the Executive Branch.  There is no part of this effort that needs permission, authorization or approval from the Legislative Branch.  That entire line of thinking is structurally flawed.  WATCH:

.

President Trump does not have to go to congress to do something entirely within the Executive Branch.

When I watch Ms Bartiromo frame these arguments on completely fraudulent constitutional premises’, I begin to question the motives of Ms Bartiromo.  There’s something else happening here with Bartiromo and her steering “congress, congress, congress” narrative.  I’m not wrong.

The Importance of The Next FBI Director


Postd originally ontheCTH on November 16, 2024 | Sundance

Many people are discussing who President Trump will appoint to two positions: (1) Director of the National Security Agency (NSA); and (2) The Director of the FBI.  Without actually realizing it, both of these positions are fundamentally tethered.

The NSA Director is the librarian of the Intelligence Community.  The NSA gathers, collects, intercepts and stores the metadata of every electronic transmission, including communication. The Director of the NSA is in charge of that massive responsibility to protect and guard the library.

The FBI Director is the chief customer of that library.  On the domestic investigative side, the intelligence side, and the counterintelligence side of all FBI operations, their access to exploit that metadata has become critical.  The urgency of that need underpins the motive to continue reauthorizing FISA-702. When we remove the pretending, 702 reauthorization means surveillance access without warrants for all American communication.

The Fourth Amendment has been destroyed by legislative permission, and a complete lack of accountability for violations of law.  Americans are no longer “secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures,” and “reasonable cause” warrants are no longer needed.

It should not be too much to ask for an FBI Director who respects the Fourth Amendment. Alas, in the real world of the Patriot Act, pragmatically we are well aware that every sub-silo and contractor within the FBI toolbox has access to this unlimited surveillance library.

Perhaps unbeknownst to most, the people advising President Trump on his next FBI Director also hold a vested interest in making sure the nominated candidates for NSA and FBI will continue to allow exploitation.

I prefer an FBI Director who does not support FISA-702 warrantless searches of U.S. citizen data. Unfortunately, everyone in the orbit of President Trump providing the advice and recommending the candidates, do not hold the same view.  Not a single one.

That context brings me to the key point that every reader must keep at the forefront of everything else that unfolds for the next several years.   Urgency and response to prayer tell me to just let the information flow and everyone can judge for themselves.

By now you probably carry in your wallet or purse a newly DHS and TSA compliant “real ID,” either in the form of a driver’s license, a passport, or a biometric alien registration id.

If you travel, you will note your compliant ID is scanned by TSA and more recently your face is photographed, recorded and uploaded.  The database connecting your biometric identity to your personage is now complete and growing larger.

♦ The People Behind Donald Trump:

Advanced autonomous Artificial Intelligence (AI) is about to merge with the surveillance authority within FISA-702.

Think.

When the AI search and filter capability is merged with the NSA metadata, add fractal computing power and imagine the search results.  It is only a matter of time before an Obama-type administration take power again.  What will that merged system look like when weaponized?

Now, think about what comes next. Oh, and you don’t have to wonder too much.

Palantir agreed to cooperate with the FBI and launched facial recognition AI on behalf of their federal contract with the FBI into the events of J6 attendees. The FBI arrests followed.  Palantir’s access to the DHS/TSA database, as granted by the FBI for use in their J6 targeting operation, was a beta test for how artificial intelligence could scour the national biometric database and deliver results.

Two key points:

(1) Palantir doesn’t have access to the full NSA metadata library yet. *That’s the part where Peter ThielElon Musk and JD Vance come in (’28).

(2) Palantir (AI surveillance) is beta testing with various sub-silos (like FBI), under auspices of various legal authorities (like J6).

[*Apply the Dept of Government Efficiency (DOGE) as nose under tent to #1]

Peter Thiel’s company, Palantir, is the contracted exploitation software that scours the system, connects to the metadata and delivers the return result.  Palantir is the product that identifies the faces, in the library assembled by the federal requirement for “read id.”

Now, does this make sense?

.

The fully autonomous surveillance system is almost finished.  5G makes the data processing stream fast and in real time.  What remains is simply a hardware issue, ie. cameras.

Elon Musk, Peter Thiel and Larry Ellison have positioned themselves brilliantly.

The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is also a solid way in.

This backdrop also frames the nomination of Kristi Noem and Tulsi Gabbard at DHS and DNI respectively, quite differently.

Everything built for good is but one election away from being weaponized.

Zelenskyy Says Conflict with Russia Can End with Diplomacy


Posted originally on the CTH on November 16, 2024 | Sundance

In reaction to the pending arrival of President Trump, Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is now saying the conflict with Russia is possible to end with diplomacy:

(Via CBS) – Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Kyiv would like to end the war with Russia next year through “diplomatic means” as both countries prepare for President-elect Donald Trump’s return to the White House.

In an interview with the Ukrainian media outlet Suspilne, Zelenskyy said he is certain that the war will end “sooner” than it otherwise would have once Mr. Trump becomes president. (read more)

It is important to remember that in this “new democracy” framed by the support of U.S-led NATO, Zelenskyy cancelled all elections within Ukraine in order to maintain his alignment with western influence.

Zelenskyy’s new positions is a natural outcome of President Trump’s pending arrival.

President Trump really doesn’t have to do much; all he needs to do is withdraw U.S. support, wait a little while, demand Ukraine hold elections, and Zelenskyy will flee the nation because the political support he needs to retain the illusion of the fight is not present in the will of the Ukraine majority.

Calling for diplomacy is an outcome of Ukraine’s inherent weakness if even the slightest measure of U.S. support is withdrawn. Ukraine can only maintain the battle as long as the U.S. continues funneling money, weapons and direct targeting assistance into the battlefield.

This is not a difficult conflict to end.  The problem for Washington DC is the simplicity of the solution.  When President Trump ends the bloodshed, there is an entire military complex who will suddenly face the curious stares of the global western population. Washington DC is in a very precarious position.

In a rather ironic twist, the pretense of the DC proletariat is going to be the outcome.  The future of Ukraine is going to be determined by the people inside Ukraine who have suffered under Zelenskyy’s regime.

The only question remaining is essentially, where will Volodymyr Zelenskyy end up?  He’s not going to be in Ukraine.
