I often hear or receive this question in various iterations. When discussing the research outlines of current events, especially when we cite the historic background of what took place leading to those events – and how it created the outcome we now witness, we often get this question – or a version therein:
…”Have you tried to meet with DNI or DOJ or NSC people to attempt to ”unsilo” their thinking and understanding of all that transpired so they can connect all the dots. You have said that different people you’ve spoken to know pieces and parts, but the silos prevent anyone from knowing the whole. Can you not be the link? I love that we know but we can’t affect change. We/I only become more frustrated as our new leaders bumble along talking and focusing on seemingly trivial things compared to the Treason that has been on display since 2008.”….
My friends, part of the reason the corrupt DC system is so transparently predictable, is precisely because everyone engaged in the events has a vested interest to retain the corruption. When you peel down the onion, when you get through the smoke to the fire, when you go deep into the rabbit hole and finally reach the dead end, you discover the root of everything that permeates everything is money. It is not ideology – it’s money.
From my myriads of travels and interactions with the system operators, I can boil down the answer to a few key points:
♦First, to the point of those we count on to stop the corruption, these are not smart people. You project infinitely more intelligence upon them than they actually possess. The high-information voter and researcher has much more knowledge than they do. We fail and become frustrated when we mistakenly believe they carry an awareness that is factually not present. You know more than your representative, and you know the context of that information at a much, much higher level than they do. They ARE NOT smarter than you; where “they” applies to every-single-one of the names you might reference. You are smarter than them.
♦Second, corruption is a business; whether in the initiation of it, or in the maintenance of it. Quoting myself in discussion of the situation: “My honest and respectfully intended question to you would be: What is it that makes our representatives always want to “talk about the information” rather than act upon the information, when the information is there for the taking?
Perhaps, by training, by habit, or by unintended consequence our representative form of government, our American system of politics, has developed to live for the process itself as an end result. Is it logical to believe that removing corrupt activity is a discussion; the conversation is the point; the smoke is the fire?
The business of Washington DC has evolved into reveling in the process and, as a consequence, it completely ignores the end point, misses the bottom line, doesn’t actually SEE the subject matter and never actually applies action to what might be discovered. In fact, I’m led to believe that sometimes those within system avoid the corruption deliberately, because if they get their heads around it and nail it home, they won’t have anything to talk about anymore–nothing to fundraise from anymore-because they will have exhausted their stash.
Washington DC has gotten into the habit of milking every example of corruption for “so many talking points,” “so many interviews,” “so many column inches,” and “so many angles” that problem-solving does not appeal to them at all. They oddly appear to favor the endless process.
So, when there’s an approach like what they encounter with me, with our significant research, and our reluctance for self-involvement or financial benefit, well, I just don’t fit in–because I don’t give a flying flip about “the process.” And therefore, I do not fit into the rationale of the box or their predicted PERT chart. And I say this having been a target of their stupid investigative nonsense.
♦Third, and this is the one that hurts; as long as the money is flowing – they really don’t care about the consequences outside the bubble of corruption that surrounds them. This is where the “pretending not to know” aspect becomes a matter of importance to retain position.
They built the silos as a self-preservation system, where what they are preserving is their access to money. The examples of corruption that flow like an endless stream around the silos, the feeder material for the DC swamp is simply an outcome of their own creation.
Perhaps it is better to give you an example FROM TODAY as to how this applies to what we review. All three points noted above will be visible in this example.
♦ READ CAREFULLY– Back in December of 2017 and January of 2018, there was a battle within Washington DC -in the headlines- around the issue of the “Nunes Memo.” Devin Nunes wrote a five-page outline of the corruption evident within the Carter Page FISA application used to conduct political surveillance on Donald Trump. The DC Silo System operators within the DNI (Dan Coats), FBI (Chris Wray, Andrew McCabe), and DOJ (Rod Rosenstein, Robert Mueller) did not want the Nunes Memo released, so they said it contained “classified” material.
Remember, this was President Donald Trump’s DNI, DOJ and FBI telling the Chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, Devin Nunes, that they would not permit the public release of the Nunes Memo; despite the material inside the memo largely exonerating the President and providing material, factual and irrefutable evidence of the corrupt and weaponized use of the FISA application itself by the DOJ, FBI and CIA.
At the same time as this “Nunes Memo” issue was being argued, Special Counsel Robert Mueller was attacking the office of the presidency with fraudulently narrated material from the surveillance the fraudulent FISA warrant authorized. Read that again if needed. SLOWLY.
The Silos (DNI, DOJ, FBI, CIA), while working for the President, were operating to isolate and target the President.
Now, in the background of this Nunes Memo fight, the FISA-702 bill was also up for reauthorization. The DNI, DOJ, FBI and CIA wanted the FISA-702 reauthorization that permits them to conduct surveillance on Americans without a warrant. The DC Intelligence Silos wanted 702 reauthorized. HPSCI Chairman Devin Nunes, who ultimately controlled the reauthorization, wanted his memo declassified. Nunes lead strategist was Kash Patel, the senior staffer within the HPSCI.
Kash Patel and Devin Nunes entered negotiations with Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats to declassify the Nunes Memo, in exchange for reauthorizing FISA-702. They negotiated a position where a “redacted version” of the Nunes memo would be released, in exchange for 702 reauthorization. That’s what they did. FISA-702 was reauthorized and the Nunes Memo was released [albeit with redactions].
The DOJ, FBI, CIA and SSCI kept attacking President Trump and the Special Counsel operation continued for another year.
[Six months after the FISA-702 reauthorization, with the term of the search warrant exhausted – and the content no longer useful, the FISA Application used against Carter Page was released publicly by the Robert Mueller special counsel.]
Hopefully you can see from the outline above how the Silo system operated during these events. The key takeaway is how Patel and Nunes worked within a corrupt and weaponized system and played by the rules of the corrupt and weaponized DC Silo operation. There was ZERO reform, either to the DOJ, FBI, CIA (silos) or the FISA-702 surveillance process. The corrupt system just moved along as it does.
This is why you cannot reform this system by using the participants within it that accept and continue playing by corrupt rules.
Kash Patel and Devin Nunes could have played a strategy where they confronted the DNI, CIA, DOJ and FBI by saying publicly Dan Coats was holding the declassification of the Nunes Memo hostage. They did not.
Kash Patel and Devin Nunes could have gone to President Trump and told him the issues, and requested President Trump declassify the memo without any redactions. They did not.
There were alternatives to playing within the rules of the Silo system. But they didn’t. They accepted the Silo process and in doing so perpetuated the process that targeted President Trump.
Now, we fast forward to today. What does that factual outline of HPSCI Kash Patel tell you about the predictive nature of FBI Director Kash Patel?

I expect nothing from FBI leadership that plays by the rules of a corrupt and weaponized system.
Do, or do not. There is no try.
When you see that justice is measured, not by due process, but by compulsion – when you see that in order to invoke your sixth amendment right to due process, you need to obtain permission from men who rebuke the constitution – when you see that justice is determined by those who leverage, not in law, but in politics – when you see that men get power over individual liberty by graft and by scheme, and your representatives don’t protect you against them, but protect them against you – when you see corruption holding influence and individual liberty so easily dispatched and nullified – you may well know that your freedom too is soon to perish.
I will never relent, because I do not consent.
Love to all,
