Details of U.S. Aviator’s Rescue Emerge

An intense search followed Friday’s crash of the F-15E Strike Eagle, while Iran promised a reward for the “enemy pilot.” It was the first known American aircraft to crash in Iranian territory since the U.S. and Israel launched the war on Feb. 28.

President Trump said that the service member was “seriously wounded and really brave” and rescued from “deep inside the mountains” in an operation involving dozens of armed aircraft. He said a second crew member was rescued in “broad daylight” within hours of the crash.

A senior U.S. administration official said that before locating the second aviator, the CIA spread word inside Iran that U.S. forces had found him and were moving him out, creating confusion for Iranians. The official spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss details not yet made public.

Biden CIA Memo Tied ‘Motherhood and Homemaking’ to White Supremacy

When a CIA memo begins with a trigger warning, there’s a good chance the contents “fall short of the high standards of impartiality that CIA must uphold and do not reflect the expertise for which our analysts are renowned.” Thus, CIA Director John Ratcliffe dismissed a Biden-era memo “Women Advancing White Racially and Ethnically Motivated Violent Extremist Radicalization and Recruitment,” which the CIA published (with redactions) and retracted on February 20.

The memo warned that women were joining a movement it called “white racially and ethnically motivated violent extremist,” or “REMVE.” Or, more accurately, it warned of women becoming “white REMVE-sympathetic,” which it defined as people who do “not openly advocate violence but amplify white REMVE narratives.”

From there, the memo proceeded to warn about “the white REMVE view of traditional motherhood” and that one group of concern, whose identity was redacted in the final report, “has lauded motherhood and homemaking as women’s most important responsibility.”

If any analyst had ever bothered to read this paper aloud before circulating it, he or she would likely have tossed the whole thing in derision. Seriously, who in their right mind puts “motherhood,” “homemaking,” and “violent extremism” together in the same sentence? Who ever feared that the frazzle-haired woman patiently towing three tots through the taco aisle on a Tuesday morning is planning to lob a Molotov cocktail at the nearest federal courthouse?

Indeed, the whole project was built on the “REMVE-sympathetic” category, an absurdly self-defeating term. The essential feature of “REMVEs” is violence; without violence, “REMEs” (without the V) would merely be racists. On the other hand, this CIA memo creates the “REMVE-sympathetic” category to classify those it would like to label as “REMVEs,” but who have, by the memo’s own admission, not even advocated violence.

The only reason given for connecting the two categories is that they make some similar points. The memo announces, in effect, “Guys, we noticed that some violent people and some non-violent people hold the same racist opinions. And, what’s more, the non-violent ones endorse motherhood. Viola! A vast conspiracy!” Real groundbreaking stuff there.

Keep in mind that this memo was circulated by and in the Central Intelligence Agency, which means national security intelligence analysts wasted their time writing and reading this twaddle. Additionally, since the CIA has an international focus, they wasted their time informing Americans about foreign, non-violent racists (but only the white ones).

The ideological motive behind the document’s quack terminology was hardly concealed. “We define ‘white REMVE-sympathetic’ actors as individuals or groups who may not openly advocate violence but amplify white REMVE narratives regarding their perceptions of racial and ethnic hierarchy, as well as perceived threats from those they see as advocating multiculturalism and globalization” (emphasis added).

Aha, now they tip their hand. The real purpose of this exercise was to try and legitimize the “white REMVE-sympathetic” category as a label that would pollute any opponent of “multiculturalism and globalization” with the stench of violent extremism, even if they never dreamed of advocating for or committing violence. In other words, this is weaponized language the far-Left tried to use to cast one-half of the American political spectrum as “beyond the pale.”

The memo was released on October 6, 2021, the same week as the National School Boards Association (NSBA) wrote a letter to the Biden administration — later revealed to be orchestrated with the White House — complaining that parents protesting progressive school board policies constituted a domestic terror threat. The letter, which the NSBA later retracted after losing half its membership, pretended to give a dozen examples, not one of which involved actual violence by parents.

The CIA memo sang from the same songbook. After opening with the trigger warning, “This product contains references to racial, sexual, and gendered violence,” it contained nearly nothing of the kind. Aside from a few redacted paragraphs that cannot be analyzed, the 15-page document contains only one account of actual violence, a 2018 white supremacist terror attack in Germany. Nevertheless, terms like “violent extremism” or the acronym “REMVEs” ran throughout the memo.

Instead, the memo compiled a handful of examples where female influencers expressed allegedly racist views through popular social media trends. “Some white REMVE-sympathetic women have produced blogs, videos, or other online content under the guise of cooking tutorials, which feature discussions about the importance of organic food alongside subtle narratives about racial purity and the defense of white European heritage,” according to research the memo cited from a German nonprofit.

In another instance, the memo recorded, Canadian media personality “Lauren Southern … posted a makeup tutorial interwoven with anti-Muslim sentiment to her US-based video streaming platform channel.”

Cooking videos and makeup tutorials? Where will the violence end?

Utter ignorance constrains this author to form no opinion at all of Southern as a political commentator or a person, but it’s worth noting several points about her inclusion on this list. First, the inclusion of a Canadian commentator with an American show was the closest the memo came to commenting on domestic American politics — close enough to suggest the authors knew how their report might have a domestic influence.

Second, a woman’s “anti-Muslim sentiment” may be as legitimate as a black American’s anti-segregation sentiment: “I sure am glad I live in a country where the makeup I work so hard to apply will actually be seen, not like those places governed by Sharia law.” Whether Southern’s sentiments were of this nature or something more offensive, the memo neglects to specify. But those who pretend to obsess over the rights of oppressed groups should at least remember which groups are actually oppressed.

Third, strictly speaking, “anti-Muslim sentiment” falls outside the “REMVE” category because “Muslim” is not a race or ethnicity but a religion. The authors likely meant “anti-Arab sentiment,” a term that usually overlaps but not always. The oversight is of small importance, but the fact that the authors committed such an oversight shows that this memo was not written (or edited) with a careful eye for accuracy.

In fairness to the authors, however, they did take care, on the whole, to cite actual racists or members of white supremacist groups, even if the narrative they crafted cast a much wider net. “White REMVEs and their sympathizers have claimed in online posts that it is essential for white families to have as many biological children as possible to counter the rising birthrates among non-white populations,” the document continued. “White REMVEs allege that this rise is a conspiracy, which they have termed the ‘great replacement.’”

It is true that the white supremacist fringe has imbibed the “great replacement” conspiracy theory and views the West’s racially diversifying population as a threat. It is also true that imputing belief in this conspiracy theory to any and every natalist (some who think having more babies is a good thing) is also a conspiracy theory.

Indeed, of the many good reasons why people want to see more babies born, racist fears don’t even make the list. There are sociological reasons: a national birthrate below population replacement (approximately 2.1 babies per woman) results in population decline, causing empty cities and a crisis of elder care. There are historical reasons: healthy and successful nations and civilizations have cherished their young instead of eliminating them. There are biblical reasons: God instituted childbirth as a blessing (Genesis 1:28) and imbued every person with the dignity of his image (Genesis 1:27).

Note that none of these reasons distinguishes by race. Those who adopt these reasons want to see families of all races and ethnicities have children, simply because children are good.

Beyond all these, there are a host of more personal reasons why people embrace having lots of children, or why women, in particular, embrace motherhood. There are instinctive reasons: responding to deep-seated desires in our very nature. There are familial reasons: understanding oneself as part of a multi-generational legacy. There are even prudential reasons: seeing offspring as a natural defense against solitude and isolation in old age.

On this point, it’s fair to wonder whether the memo’s tremulous tone even matched its own assumptions. Momentarily assume, for the sake of argument, that there really is a vast conspiracy of violent extremists, motivated by pro-white racism, with plans to engage in terrorism or insurrection. Imagine you then learn that these white racists, far from plotting a terrorist attack, commit themselves to the peaceful tactic of having lots of babies, motivated by their racist beliefs.

From a security analyst’s perspective, wouldn’t this hypothetical scenario induce a sigh of relief? Congratulations, the long-dreaded wave of violence has been postponed by at least a generation! Given that people with racist beliefs do exist, what course of action would you have them take?

To view this as a problem, we must first leave behind the perspective of a neutral security analyst and adopt the perspective of a leftist operative, who wants to determine the country’s future population every bit as much as the racists do, but in the opposite direction — who is committed, in fact, to stamping out racist beliefs by any means necessary. White racists committing to have babies would be a problem.

The whole document could be summarized this way: a handful of women have joined European or Canadian white supremacist groups and sought to craft a role for themselves in online recruitment. But, the document adds, these women ultimately faced barriers to participation and advancement because it turns out the racist group leaders are also misogynists — to no one’s surprise.

We hardly needed an intelligence memo to tell us these facts; yet the Biden administration poured resources into this harmless burrow in an attempt, amid the culture wars of late 2021, to spin these simple but uninteresting facts into a broader narrative about a vast, right-wing threat that echoed throughout any proponent of conservative or national values.

“There is absolutely no room for bias in our work,” CIA Director Ratcliffe insisted, “and when we identify instances where analytic rigor has been compromised, we have a responsibility to correct the record.”

Trump Greenlights CIA Operations against Venezuelan Regime

American intelligence operatives have been given authority to conduct lethal “covert” operations against foreign narco-terrorists, according to a new report. Several Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) officials told The New York Times that President Donald Trump had authorized “covert” CIA action in Venezuela, targeting the regime of dictator Nicolás Maduro.

The Trump administration has long alleged that Maduro and his administration are closely linked to the Venezuela-based narco-terrorist gang and foreign terrorist organization (FTO) Tren de Aragua (TdA), which has been responsible for aggressive violence and drug-dealing in the U.S. The secret authorization, usually called a “presidential finding” and often hidden even from most congressional oversight, was confirmed to the NYT by multiple government officials. The president acknowledged the authorization during a press conference on Wednesday, while also discussing the possibility of U.S. military land strikes against Venezuela.

“We’ve almost totally stopped it by sea. Now we’ll stop it by land,” the president said, referring to strikes on U.S.-bound drug boats. When asked if he would launch land-based military attacks against Venezuela-based drug organizations, the president replied, “I don’t want to tell you exactly, but we are certainly looking at land now because we’ve got the sea very well under control.” He was also asked if CIA agents had approval to assassinate Maduro, which the president called a “ridiculous question.”

The NYT did not detail what CIA operations had been authorized by the president, noting that presidential findings “are closely guarded secrets” and “their precise language is rarely made public.” However, the newspaper did claim that “lethal” operations in Venezuela have been approved. The news comes as the Trump administration has been targeting narco-terrorist watercraft affiliated with TdA, blowing drug boats out of the water and killing dozens of hostile TdA terrorists.

Earlier this year, the U.S. State Department, headed by Secretary Marco Rubio, formally declared six Mexican drug cartels and two Latin American international gangs as FTOs. TdA was one of the two gangs. The militant drug dealers began as a prison gang in Venezuela in 2009 or 2010 and has since burgeoned into an international criminal powerhouse in the Western hemisphere, relying on extortion, racketeering, arms smuggling, kidnapping, human trafficking, and murder to support, facilitate, and further its grip on the drug trade in Latin America and the U.S. During the presidency of Joe Biden, the gang developed a particularly strong foothold in major metropolitan areas in the U.S. like Chicago, Denver, and New York City.

Since returning to the White House in January, Trump and his deputies have taken an increasingly aggressive stance against TdA and the FTO’s Venezuelan allies. An FBI report in April confirmed that Maduro and his administration are working with TdA in an apparent effort to destabilize the U.S. and Latin American countries and commandeer the Western hemisphere drug trade. Maduro uses TdA terrorists as “proxies,” the FBI reported, and is “aiding and abetting” the narco-terrorist gang and making Venezuela a TdA “sanctuary.”

Maduro’s link to TdA is largely through a powerful but shadowy Venezuelan group known as Cartel de los Soles or Cartel of the Suns. Historically, the cartel has not been characterized as a traditional hierarchical criminal organization, but has operated as a series of closely-linked cells, led by officers of Venezuela’s armed forces. The cartel originated in the late 1980s and early 1990s, when members of the Bolivarian National Guard (Guardia Nacional Bolivariana or GNB) began extorting bribes from drug dealers to traffic in Venezuela. Two GNB generals — Ramón Guillén Dávila and Orlando Hernández Villegas, both directors of anti-narcotics units — were investigated for corruption and drug trafficking in 1993: the golden sun emblems on their uniforms gave rise to the nickname the Cartel of the Suns.

After a 2002 coup briefly forced then-president of Venezuela Hugo Chávez from power, Chávez began relying on corrupt military commanders loyal only to him, elevating them to positions of political power upon his return to office and creating a sort of praetorian government rife with corruption and ties to the drug trade, which blossomed in Venezuela as Colombian rebels and drug dealers were increasingly forced out of their native country to seek shelter elsewhere.

Under Chávez, the drug trade became a prime source of income for military officials, who often worked with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia or FARC), a militant left-wing guerilla warfare organization funded predominantly by the production and sale of cocaine. Since then, numerous Venezuelan military officials have been investigated and even arrested in connection with the drug trade. Reporters covering the connection have been murdered, drug shipments from rival or dissident cartels or gangs have been seized by the armed forces, and shipments of tons of cocaine and fentanyl have been connected to Venezuela and its military.

According to an InSight Crime report, Maduro became the unofficial head of the Cartel of the Suns in 2017, following a severe economic and financial crisis in the country during which the regular pay for military and police officials was jeopardized, leaving the drug trade as officers’ chief means of income. Although seemingly distancing himself from the cartel’s activities, Maduro and his deputies became “power brokers” effectively running the cartel, ensuring that all members are paid, resolving disputes between different cartel cells, and further ensuring that Venezuela’s military and police are personally loyal to Maduro himself.

In 2020, several months before leaving office at the end of his first term, Trump and the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) indicted Maduro and other Venezuelan officials on charges of “narco-terrorism” due to their ties to the Cartel of the Suns and TdA. In July, the U.S. Treasury Department officially sanctioned the cartel, which was designated an FTO, and explicated that Maduro is, in fact, in charge of the group.

Earlier this month, the administration formally cut diplomatic ties with Venezuela, citing Maduro’s refusal to cooperate with U.S. anti-narco-terrorism objectives. House Democrats openly criticized the move, anticipating potential military action against Venezuela. “Trump and Rubio are pushing for regime change in Venezuela,” House Foreign Affairs Committee Democrats wrote. “The American people don’t want another war — and Congress can’t let any president start one illegally or unilaterally. That’s not how the Constitution works.”

However, the president informed Congress late last month that the U.S. is officially engaged in a “non-international armed conflict” with “nonstate armed groups,” namely TdA. “The cartels involved have grown more armed, well organized, and violent. They have the financial means, sophistication, and paramilitary capabilities needed to operate with impunity. They illegally and directly cause the deaths of tens of thousands of American citizens each year,” the president wrote in a Congressional notice. “The United States has now reached a critical point where we must use force in self-defense and defense of others against the ongoing attacks by these designated terrorist organizations.”

Maduro has repeatedly refuted the Trump administration’s allegations of his involvement in narco-terrorism, pledging to bring a complaint against the U.S. before the United Nations. Trump’s ambassador to the U.N., former National Security Advisor Mike Waltz, dismissed Maduro’s claims in an interview Thursday morning. “Venezuela can bring whatever they want to the U.N.,” he said. “… [A]lso part of the U.N. is Article 51 of the U.N. Charter that enables a country to defend itself, and that’s what President Trump’s doing,” Waltz added. “President Trump is going to do whatever it takes and use all the tools in the toolkit from the intelligence community, from the Department of War, and of course, diplomatically, to defend U.S. sovereignty against actions that are actively killing Americans.”

CIA Analysts Who Helped Cook Up Phony Russiagate Intel Still Thriving In Deep State, Former Spy Says

Two analysts who helped Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Director John Brennan discredit President Donald Trump through weak or phony intelligence on Russian election interference continue to cash paychecks from the agency, according to a former CIA operations officer.

“At least two still do work there. That doesn’t mean that all of the other people have left. Those are just the two that I’m aware of,” former CIA Operations Officer Bryan Dean Wright told the Daily Caller News Foundation.

One of former authors remains in possession of a “blue badge,” meaning they remain a CIA employee, while another possesses a “green badge” and continues to do work for the agency as a contractor, Wright said. Others may retain their security clearances.

Wright has not held back his opinion about his former boss: He said in a recent op-ed that he should “rot in prison” for undermining the integrity of the Republic.

“These men thought they knew what was best for America, and they didn’t give a damn what voters like you thought,” he wrote.

Brennan — whose tenure at CIA spanned decades — likely cultivated generations of like-minded CIA employees, Wright said. The former CIA director’s influence probably continues to shape the agency’s culture by way of mentorships, friendships, promotion panels and hiring offices. 

The CIA did not respond to requests for comment. A request for comment from Brennan through his consulting firm WestExec Advisors did not receive a reply.

Documents declassified by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard in recent days have revealed that President Barack Obama’s intelligence chiefs spun, cherrypicked and in some cases wholly manufactured raw intelligence reports to support the narrative — predetermined in leaks to the media — that Russian President Vladimir Putin had a “clear preference” for Trump and “aspired to help his election chances when possible by discrediting Secretary Clinton.”

The resulting 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment touched off years of Russiagate media frenzy. Though technically endorsed by the “big three” — the CIA, FBI and National Security Agency — just five CIA analysts under Brennan wrote the assessment, according to a House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence report declassified on July 23. The analysts were plucked from a “Fusion Cell” Brennan had formed months earlier to examine Russian election interference, according to a CIA self-assessment declassified on July 2.

Those analysts worked hand-in-glove with Brennan, churning out an assessment in less than a week in the days leading up to Christmas. Brennan hid the “sensitive intelligence” — the unverified, slanted and irrelevant raw intelligence reports — from other elements of the intelligence community until a two-day review process. The review happened using a card copy that was shuttled between Langley, Washington, DC, and Fort Meade, the report indicates.

Despite the revelations, there have been few assurances that analysts whose names are unknown and may remain embedded in the Deep State no longer play a role in U.S. national security.

It’s not atypical for the CIA to conduct internal investigations of its personnel, from audits of timecards to counterintelligence probes to ensure foreign spies do not infiltrate U.S. intelligence, Wright said.

Yet the CIA assessment of its own “tradecraft” in assembling the ICA omitted full details about the significant flaws of the raw intelligence reports underlying its judgements. The deputy director of CIA for analysis, who is unnamed in the report, wrote that CIA analysts were subject to “procedural anomalies” and Brennan’s outsized influence. The CIA assessment also concedes its ICA was weakened by the inclusion of the Steele dossier, a salacious Democratic opposition research file on Trump. Yet the report also claims the ICA had “analytic rigor” which “exceeded that of most IC assessments.”

The report conceded that the CIA’s “high confidence” that Russian authorities “aspired” for Trump to win was unwarranted given it was based in only one report. But the CIA’s self-assessment did not give full insight into the weaknesses of that report.

“While the DA Review identified specific procedural and tradecraft issues with the one judgment, these issues should not be interpreted as indicative of broader systemic problems in the IC’s analytic processes or standards,” the CIA deputy director wrote.

House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence Chair Rick Crawford proclaimed the report a “whitewash” within hours of its release, setting in motion the declassification of his committee’s more strident report.

“The report was produced in the 116th Congress under Devin Nunes despite extraordinary restrictions placed by the CIA. Among those restrictions are a prohibition on transporting the document to secure spaces on Capitol Hill,” Crawford said.

It would only become apparent when the congressional investigation’s report was declassified three weeks later that the “aspired” judgement relied on a fragment of a sentence from a single human intelligence report.

“Putin had made this decision [to leak the DNC emails] after he had come to believe that the Democratic nominee had better odds of winning the U.S. presidential election, and that [candidate Trump], whose victory Putin was counting on, most likely would not be able to pull off a convincing victory,” the report read.

The “aspired” judgement hinged on the clause “whose victory Putin was counting on,” which five CIA officers interpreted five different ways, the report states.

CIA Director John Ratcliffe himself called attention to a lack of accountability around intelligence failures and deceptions in a 2023 op-ed. CIA senior bureaucrats hold lifetime appointments, maintaining their rank and pay even when overseeing major failures — a practice Congress should move to end, Ratcliffe wrote.

“Officials who betray the public trust—either by bad acts in office or by politicizing their credentials after leaving—should be stripped of their security clearances,” Ratcliffe wrote.

But experts told the DCNF that Ratcliffe could encounter a hostile CIA culture in implementing any reforms.

CIA officer training includes a video of drafters of an intelligence estimate alleging Iraqi weapons of mass destruction expressing regret, according to Wright. Few analysts would want to see themselves as responsible for an intelligence failure that could set back their careers.

At the same time, a lack of accountability could contribute to a culture of stagnation and decline in professionalism in Langley.

“The CIA has become so severely politicized that it has fundamentally lowered its standards of integrity in collecting and assessing intelligence, and analysts come up with what are often very weak intelligence assessments,” said J. Michael Waller, senior analyst for strategy at the Center for Security Policy. “I used to think it was grossly irresponsible hyperbole to compare the CIA to the KGB, but you really have to wonder, have the CIA and other intelligence community elements become a state within a state?”

Social Media Posts Reveal Anti-Trump Bias Of CIA Officer Who Helped Create 2016 Russiagate Report

A Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) counterintelligence officer who claimed she helped lead the 2016 U.S. Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) regarding allegations of Russian election interference has a history of social media comments blasting President Donald Trump as a “dictator.”

The comments from recently-retired CIA officer, Susan Miller, were originally reported by Just The News Tuesday and verified by the Daily Caller. Miller claimed she assisted in spearheading the 2016 ICA investigative team. The CIA under Director John Ratcliffe released a tradecraft review of the ICA in 2025.

Responding to a May New York Times (NYT) article, Miller commented that the reported dismantling of an investigative squad in the FBI was “awful” and “Further proof that Trump is a dictator,” according to her LinkedIn post.

Miller also responded on LinkedIn to a March Washington Post article as “proof” of Trump’s “lack of empathy ….. and his high regard for a dictator,” adding that Trump has “dictator envy.”

Additionally, she agreed with a comment that appeared to compare Trump to Hitler, saying, “the Hitler analogy is not lost on a bunch of us” on LinkedIn.

Miller also said that “MaGa types are nazis” in a response to an article about the firing of the CIA’s top doctor Terry Adirim. The article referenced a lawsuit that alleged a “political extremist…called for the termination of [Adirim’s] employment and even her death.”

“Good grief. As if we needed proof that MaGa types are nazis ….. calling for her death??! So wrong. I hope she is okay,” Miller wrote.

She also agreed with a post calling Trump and Elon Musk “unAmerican and unpatriotic” for their “cruelty and sadistic pleasure,” apparently in regard to the administration firing federal workers.

Even in a comment where she agreed with an action of Trump’s, Miller clarified she was not a “Trump fan” and has previously referred to Trump as “our Dear Leader,” claiming that he wants to “rule … the world.”

In a recent interview with Times Radio, Miller claimed Trump harassed her team for investigating allegations of Russia influencing the election in his favor. “Trump wants to be very much like Putin, sort of a president for life,” she told the outlet.

In a statement to Just The News, Miller claimed she initially supported the president.

“I was originally pro Trump and a solid Republican since I could start voting….i even voted for him in his first election. Your comments are mean spirited and uninformed.. Our constitution limits the president to two terms, Trump is already talking about a third. I refused to put the dossier in our report as it could not be corroborated. Sorry to ruin your view of me as a left wing Republican hater. I was overseas for a tour from 19-22. I k ow [sic] nothing about the laptop letter, but will look it up.”

In a July podcast with “SpyTalk,” Miller said her team came into the investigation with a “completely open mind” as “that’s what you do in counterintelligence, you just tell the truth of what you find.”

Miller asserted she purposefully sought out personnel who would challenge her perspective.

She claimed her team found evidence that Russia preferred a Trump presidency in 2016, but they did not have evidence Trump knowingly cooperated with the Kremlin. Miller told “SpyTalk” her team added the unverified Steele Dossier to the final report because the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) would not approve the final report without the dossier’s inclusion.

Miller was upset and said she did not have time to verify the dossier’s claims before the report was published. She said the dossier could be true because she has not verified or discounted the sources in the dossier.

“Maybe it was real,” she said.

When asked by Times Radio if she has seen any evidence that Trump is a Kremlin asset, Miller said, “I have seen some things… I’m still working out whether or not it is true,” adding that there is some information that “makes it look like he could be.”

Trump 2.0 Takes Chainsaw To The Deep State With Historic Cuts Of Staff, Budgets

The intelligence community is quietly undergoing structural changes as agencies tackle government bloat, reorganize departments and dismantle the Biden administration’s diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies.

One of Trump’s first directives targeted weaponization in the federal government, and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) — which oversees the IC — is focused on uprooting the politicization of the agency.

DNI Tulsi Gabbard launched the Director’s Initiatives Group (DIG) in April to end government weaponization and increase transparency, and she recently announced that the agency is now 25% leaner.

“The 25% reduction in the staff includes both permanent ODNI cadre officers and detailees from other IC elements, who will be returned to their home agencies as ODNI streamlines its mission space,” a source familiar told the Daily Caller.

Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Director John Ratcliffe is also eying politicization and potential waste in his agency.

“Director Ratcliffe has made it clear that the CIA will pursue President Trump’s national security priorities with laser-like focus,” CIA spokeswoman Liz Lyons told the Daily Caller. “The Agency is determined to provide the President with an unparalleled intelligence advantage and, under Director Ratcliffe, we are aggressively doing just that.”

Ratcliffe vowed to restructure the CIA to “eliminate” politicization during a recent cabinet meeting with the president.

Similarly, Deputy Director Michael Ellis warned against politicization in a February message to CIA staff, noting their work needs “to be free from politics, bias, or any other distraction.”

Conservatives have accused the IC of politicization for years.

The FBI relied on the since since-debunked Steele dossier to accuse former Trump campaign adviser, Carter Page, of being a Russian agent. The bureau also reportedly surveilled school board parents and raided the homes of pro-life protesters.

Fifty-one former officials signed a letter casting doubt on the New York Post’s reporting on Hunter Biden’s emails, falsely claiming it had “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation, even though when Ratcliffe served as DNI during Trump’s first term, he determined there was no evidence Hunter Biden’s laptop was a “Russian disinformation campaign.”

Now, the IC is dealing with “deep state actors” leaking classified information to the press. Sources leaked to the The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) in May about the IC’s plans to surveille Greenland.

Gabbard slammed the leakers as “deep state actors” who are “politicizing and leaking classified information” in a statement to WSJ.

The CIA is being revamped, but Ratcliffe has not made the “kind of broad cuts” required of other agencies, a Thursday report from CNN claimed.

Although Trump’s federal workforce directives can include national security exemptions, Lyons told the Caller that Ratcliffe is zeroing-in on ways the agency can be more efficient.

“Under Director Ratcliffe, the CIA is implementing President Trump’s Executive Orders to ensure that the workforce is responsive to the Trump Administration’s national security priorities,” she stated. “Even if exemptions are available for national security reasons, the Director believes that CIA can improve efficiency, which is why he invited Mr. Musk to headquarters earlier this year for his insight.”

Elon Musk, head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), visited the CIA and met with Ratcliffe in April to discuss DOGE’s efforts to improve government efficiency.

While the agency’s operations are often shrouded in secrecy, Ratcliffe fired officers involved in DEI and dismissed a CIA official who played a key role in Biden’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate for members of the military.

The Trump administration plans to reduce the CIA’s workforce by about 1,200 people over multiple years, The Washington Post reported, citing a source familiar.

Ratcliffe emphasized “meritocracy” in an unclassified March 31 CIA memo obtained by the Caller.

“Moving forward, you will be part of a smaller, more elite and efficient workforce,” he wrote. “We will need everyone at CIA to prioritize efforts that add the greatest value and reduce those we can no longer afford to do.”

He added that “the years of growing budgets and resources are behind [CIA].”

The CIA is also reorienting its focus toward Latin America, specifically the drug cartels. This is a shift from the past two decades, where the CIA has been primarily concerned with Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria, the New York Times (NYT) reported in 2021.

Trump designated the cartels “Foreign Terrorist Organizations” in one of his first executive orders.

The CIA merged the Western Hemisphere Mission Center (WHMC) and the Counternarcotics Center (CNC) into one unit — the Americas and Counternarcotics Mission Center (ACMC), according to an unclassified April 14 CIA memo obtained by the Caller.

Trump expects the agency to “play a prominent role” in targeting transnational cartels, the memo noted.

The CIA has reportedly been operating a covert drone program to identify fentanyl laboratories in Mexico, anonymous officials told the NYT.

The agency is considering using “lethal force” against Mexican drug cartels, a U.S. official and three people familiar told CNN in April. The CIA is reviewing its authorities and assessing the potential risks of targeting the cartels, according to the outlet.

The agency has also recently made efforts to improve intelligence collection on Russia and China.

The National Security Agency (NSA) is reportedly also facing cuts under Trump’s new vision for the IC. The agency has been ordered to slash “up to 2,000 civilian roles,” three people familiar told Recorded Future News.

The NSA is a signals intelligence (SIGNT) agency within the Department of Defense (DOD). Trump fired Biden-appointed NSA Director Timothy Haugh in April.

The NSA referred the Daily Caller to DOD for questions about restructuring.

“NSA is focused on carrying out the priorities of the President, Secretary of Defense, and Director of National Intelligence, which include evaluating and making strategic adjustments to its civilian workforce,” a DOD spokesperson told the Caller.

“As a combat support agency, NSA is working with the Department to meet [DOD’s] goals and ensure that workforce adjustments are conducted while we continue to execute NSA’s SIGINT and Cybersecurity missions,” the statement continued.

The DOD intends to target its “bloated headquarters,” Hegseth announced in early May.

He introduced the General and Flag Officer Reductions Policy, or the “Less Generals More GIs” directive in a video.

Hegseth ordered at least a 20% reduction of 4-star positions in the Active Component, 20% reduction of the National Guard’s general officers and a minimum 10% reduction in general and flag officers, according to a DOD memo.

“We’re going to shift resources from bloated headquarters’ elements to our warfighters,” Hegseth stated in the video.

He also directed $5.1 billion in “wasteful spending” cuts in accordance with DOGE’s findings in April.

However, the Trump administration has proposed a record $1 trillion defense budget — even though the Pentagon has yet to pass an audit.

The law enforcement arm of the IC is also not immune to restructuring.

Trump’s proposed Fiscal Year 2026 budget includes a $545 million cut to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), citing a reduction in “DEI programs, pet projects of the [Biden] administration, and duplicative intelligence activities,” according to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).

The proposal’s recommendations concern discretionary funding.

The Caller reached out to the FBI for comment on the budget proposal and examples of any waste, fraud or abuse the bureau has eliminated. The bureau referred the Caller to Patel’s comments during committee hearings.

FBI Director Kash Patel testified in May before the House Appropriations Committee and said the bureau was “trying to eliminate waste, fraud and abuse.”

Patel is reorganizing the agency to “streamline operations,” according to his May 8 opening statement. The FBI is “ensuring that the Bureau is a good steward of taxpayer dollars,” his statement added.

However, Patel pushed back against the OMB’s proposal to slash funding during his hearing. He told congressmembers the budget cuts were not what the FBI had requested.

“The proposed budget that I put forward is to cover us for $11.1 billion which would not have us cut any positions … we need more than what has been proposed,” he told Democrat Connecticut Rep. Rose DeLauro.

Patel appeared to reverse his comments the following day, and he expressed support for OMB’s budget when testifying before the Senate Appropriations Commerce, Justice, and Science Subcommittee.

“We will make and agree with this budget as it stands and make it work,” he told Democratic Maryland Sen. Chris Van Hollen during the senate hearing.

“I was simply asking for more funds because I can do more with more money,” Patel added.

Rep. DeLauro asked what positions would be cut due to the funding reduction, and Patel said he is not looking to cut positions.

“Ma’am, at this time, we have not looked at who to cut,” he answered. “We are focusing our energies on how not to have them cut.”

In addition to restructuring the intelligence community’s workforce, Trump has sought to eliminate DEI from federal agencies.

The CIA, ODNI, FBI and NSA have made efforts to comply with Trump’s executive orders, including by removing DEI language from government websites.

Notably, the FBI closed its DEI office in December 2024.

DNI Gabbard told Trump during a cabinet meeting that she closed the IC Human Capital Office, deeming it a “DEI slush fund.”

Additionally, Gabbard fired over 100 intelligence staffers who were in sexually explicit NSA chats.

Former President Biden’s CIA Director William J. Burns prioritized DEI, a CIA official told the Caller.

Under the Trump administration, however, the agency has scrapped its DEI office.

“Director Burns made it clear that strengthening diversity and inclusion at CIA was one of his highest priorities,” the official said. “Under Director Ratcliffe, there has been a significant change — the DEI office has been shut down and mission objectives are prioritized instead.”

JFK Files Reveal New Depths Of CIA Incompetence

Newly declassified documents related to John F. Kennedy’s assassination shed additional light on the Central Intelligence Agency’s (CIA) surveillance of Lee Harvey Oswald, the accused assassin, in the weeks leading up to JFK’s death.

Documents reveal that the CIA tapped the phones at Cuban and Soviet diplomatic facilities in Mexico City, according to journalist Steven Portnoy. Oswald traveled there multiple times to meet with officials just weeks prior to the assassination. It was previously known that the CIA was aware of Oswald’s travels — a fact they withheld from the Warren Commission — but details about CIA wiretapping were classified until Tuesday.

“The docs dropped last night add more specifics about the CIA’s operations, namely in Mexico City, where Oswald met with Cuban and Soviet Officials in Sept. 1963,” he said. “These docs reveal how the CIA tapped phones of the Cuban and Soviet diplomatic facilities, information that had been classified until now.”

Kennedy was assassinated on Nov. 22, 1963.

Oswald lived in the USSR from October 1959 to June 1962. Soviet spies, however, did not want him in the country permanently, particularly after his suicide attempt, according to a previously released CIA document. His trips to the embassy in Mexico City were allegedly to try to obtain a visa to return to the USSR, documents show.

The newly-released documents also reveal how a JFK advisor issued a warning to Kennedy about the CIA’s influence over foreign policy. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., JFK’s nephew, previously discussed how his uncle was “at war” with his military and intelligence community over his desire to keep the U.S. out of regime-change wars.

Jefferson Morley, a JFK assassination expert, noted that one memo from Arthur Schlesinger Jr. told JFK that “CIA encroachment on the traditional functions of state” affected his ability to direct foreign policy without the CIA’s influence.

Schlesinger was a historian and served as Special Assistant to JFK from 1961 to 1963, according to his biography in Foreign Affairs.

Schlesinger argued that the “CIA has, in effect, ‘made’ policy in many parts of the world.”

In another letter from Schlesinger, he called the agency a “state within a state.”

“The contemporary CIA possesses many of the characteristics of a state within a state,” he wrote.

Another previously redacted memo was released Tuesday without redactions. It demonstrated that a CIA source, Samuel Cummings, owned the International Armament Corp, and Intercarmo. Interarmco reportedly was a supplier for the sporting goods store at which Oswald allegedly purchased the firearm used to kill JFK.

Cummings was the largest private weapons dealer in the world, and he sold arms to Cuba’s Fidel Castro, among others, The Washington Post reported in 1981. A lawsuit by Armco Steel forced him to change Interarmco to Interarms, the outlet noted.

“These items were to remain the property of the CIA, and their cost was to be returned to the Agency after they were sold,” the CIA document revealed.

Morley revealed that he reached out to the CIA regarding the popular “Who Killed JFK?” podcast the week prior to the March 18 document release. Morley said a spokesperson called him and spoke to him off the record on March 18 and then sent him a statement.

“The notion that CIA was involved in the death of John F. Kennedy is absolutely false,” the statement read.

On Monday, President Trump said “80,000 pages” of documents would be released. Over 60,000 pages and more than 2,000 files were published Tuesday night.

Trump signed an executive order in January mandating the declassification of the assassination files of JFK, Sen. Robert F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr.

Americans feel disoriented and confused by what is happening to their country: We are literally living through a revolution and it’s only phase 1 of broader slide into tyranny

Prepare to defend your family, your property and, most of all, your children because Operation Gladio is coming to America and it will be more ruthless than anyone imagines. 

If you look at the country and the world today, it’s obvious what is happening, but if you look at just your immediate surroundings, it can be confusing. We read about horrendous acts of violence and barbarism, some of it is no doubt happening in our own communities but kept hidden by local authorities while not being reported by local media.

That’s because local media is no longer what it used to be. Much like the national media, your local newspaper and local network TV news outlet no longer exists to serve its readers or viewers but rather the interests of their advertisers and the local or state governments. Local media outlets are now operating as part of a loosely defined public-private partnership with their local governments and the biggest corporate citizens in the community. This PPP is aggressively globalist, nihilist and secular in its worldview. In most cases, your local newspaper editor actually believes the lies that are fed to him or her, and which he or she then spreads to the community at large.

Here are just a few of the outrageous lies we are supposed to believe.

  • Haitians are not stealing and eating the town’s ducks in Springfield, Ohio. Do Haitians even exist in Springfield? If they do, they certainly don’t act like Haitians in Haiti. They are all model citizens.
  • There are no Venezuelan gangs taking over apartments in Aurora, Colorado, or doing anything else bad or violent in Aurora or anywhere else.
  • Kamala Harris has no plans to confiscate people’s guns. Nor has she ever advocated for a ban on fracking.
  • The borders are not “open” and how dare you say America is being “invaded.”
  • Crime in American cities is dropping like a rock. The FBI says so. If you think otherwise you are a crazy right-wing conspiracy theorist who needs to get therapy.
  • Inflation is not nearly as bad as you think. Stop complaining!
  • Babies are not aborted in the third trimester of pregnancies in America.
  • Half-naked men pretending to be women and dancing in front of children is not a bad influence on the children. In fact it’s good for them and you’re a bad parent if you disagree.
  • School shooters and presidential assassins ALWAYS act alone and are not cultivated, groomed or helped along by anyone on the outside.
  • The government always tells the truth (as long as Donald Trump is not the head of it).
  • Vaccines are good for you and have never harmed anyone outside of a few “extremely rare” cases.
  • Chemtrails don’t exist.
  • Poisoning the water with fluoride is good for your kids because it prevents cavities.
  • NATO is strictly a defensive alliance.
  • America is a “democracy.”

Because of these two realities, one that is seen and heard and the other that mocks its existence, it’s essential that you stay closely tuned into your local community and gather as much intel as possible. Become a watchman on the wall. Be aware of what’s happening not just in front of your local shopping centers and malls but behind them. What’s going on in the woods just barely out of sight from the highways and byways and alleyways of your city or town?

Otherwise, you will be a captive of the “news” that’s sifted through the PPP’s globalist filter. Much of what we in the alternative media report is starting to break through the wall of censorship, because people are seeing it with their own eyes, and that’s why you see the local and national media doubling down to “fact check” and debunk the true news and substituting their false narratives.

The reason they have to mock and “debunk” the truth is they want people to be caught completely off guard when the final phase of the ongoing revolution goes down.

If you talk to people who lived through revolutions in Cuba, Venezuela and other countries, they almost all say that they were totally surprised at how fast things progressed at the very end. They were caught flat-footed and confused by the series of fast-moving chaotic events until, boom, the tyranny was entrenched and there was no getting rid of it.

This gaslighting operation — believe what we say not what you see with your own eyes or read about in the alternative media — is part and parcel of the ongoing leftist revolution that resembles the Bolshevik revolution in Russia in the 20th century. It’s only different in the way that it is portrayed because they didn’t have mass media to mind-control the population as effectively as today’s fake-news journalists and reporters, who are actually paid professional propagandists.

After the far left has had its way with us, I believe there is another phase of tyranny waiting at the door: Technocracy. I’ve written tons about the technocratic model and how it aims to make us digital slaves through ever-more enticing technology and a form of “capitalism” based on public-private partnerships. That will sound very good to the gullible uninformed American after a few years of living under the one-party Marxist state headed by the likes of the Obamas, Bidens and Kamala Harris, should she be the next puppet selected to serve in the White House.

Below is an excellent piece by State of the Nation that describes how the CIA is one of the main powers bringing the Bolshevik Revolution to America through Operation Gladio.


School Mass Shootings, Operation Gladio & American Bolshevik Revolution

OPERATION GLADIO and the very stealthy ‘Strategy of Tension’ paving the way for the American Bolshevik Revolution.

SOTN Editor’s Note: The article posted below in its entirety is supremely important because it underscores the multi-decade criminal conspiracy to carry out an Operation Gladio-level campaign of terrorism via mass shootings against the American people.

“Operation Gladio” is the terrorist arm of NATO (a.k.a. North Atlantic Terrorist Organization)

As the excerpt below indicates “Operation Gladio was a CIA-led operation that used the strategy of tension to delegitimize left-wing parties in Western Europe”.  However, The Powers That Be always adapt their nefarious schemes and seditious plots to the current times so as to align with the primary objectives of their civilization-destroying New World Order agenda.  In other words, today the well concealed masters of Operation Gladio are using that main terrorist arm of NATO to completely collapse the Right-wing parties and conservative organizations and Christian groups, as well as the Patriot Movement, MAGA Movement and Truth Movement.

What’s the critical point?

There are actually three crucial aspects to the ongoing prep phase of the rapidly intensifying American Bolshevik Revolution.

First, that virtually every mass shooting since the first BIG one — the University of Texas tower mass casualty event (MCE) on August 1, 1966  — has been carried out by the U.S. Intelligence Community, U.S. Armed Forces and covered up by local law enforcement and the CIA’s Mockingbird Media.  The primary purpose of these MCEs is to fabricate a false pretext by which to completely cancel the Second Amendment thereby stripping the populace of their firearms.  In this way their future plans for a UN force to come in and take over, after the American Bolshevik Revolution is completed, will proceed unimpeded and without an armed defense by the citizenry.

Secondly, to methodically manufacture as much chaos, confusion and conflict nationwide as a prelude to the long planned kinetic war known as the American Bolshevik Revolution.  This strategy comes right from the same playbook that the Khazarian Cabal used for the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917, which was purposefully launched just before the 1918 Spanish Flu Pandemic.  This is the primary piece of their “strategy of tension” that’s being used with great success in all 50 states so as to create a profound and pervasive climate of fear and anxiety, trepidation and apprehension, worry and concern.  And it’s working.

Thirdly, to normalize the extraordinary violence and mayhem associated with each and every mass shooting so that it becomes the new normal for these once United States.  And, so that very few folks will ever come to understand that the U.S. citizenry has been under withering attacks from its own government for 6 straight decades.  In other words, America’s own intel community, military and law enforcement have been waging nonstop asymmetric guerrilla warfare against the law-abiding citizens … and everyone accepts it as lone-nut mass shooters without any real investigations, prosecutions or appropriate consequences.

FOIA Lawsuit Emails Show CIA Rushed Approval of Infamous Hunter Laptop Letter by 51 Former Intel Officials Before Election

Washington, D.C. — Judicial Watch announced today that it received eight pages of records from the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) showing Mike Morell, former acting CIA director under President Obama, requesting CIA permission to publish a letter by former intelligence community leaders stating that they believed the laptop emails exposing Hunter Biden’s connections to Ukraine were Russian disinformation. Morrell’s request for prepublication review was approved in just six hours by the CIA.

Judicial Watch forced the release of material through a June 23, 2023, Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit filed after the CIA failed to respond to a May 11, 2023, request (Judicial Watch v. Central Intelligence Agency (No. 1:23-cv-01844)). Judicial Watch is asking for:

Records and communications of the Prepublication Classification Review Board, Central Intelligence Agency, including emails, email chains, email attachments, text messages, cables, voice recordings, correspondence, statements, letters, memoranda, reports, presentations, notes, or other form of record, regarding an October 19, 2020, email request to review and “clear” a letter involving the Hunter Biden laptop story potentially having Russian involvement or being a Russian disinformation plot. 

“This is a rush job, as it needs to get out as soon as possible,” Morell wrote in an email on Monday, October 19, 2020, at 6:36 a.m., to the CIA’s Publications Classification Review Board (PCRB) with a copy to Marc Polymeropoulos, a former CIA senior intelligence officer. 

This was five days after the New York Post published an article on the Hunter Biden emails, three days before a Donald Trump/Joe Biden debate, and 15 days before the presidential election.

 The “Public Statement on the Hunter Biden Emails” is included in the records. It states in part:

We want to emphasize that we do not know if the emails, provided to the New York Post by President Trump’s personal attorney Rudy Giuliani, are genuine or not and that we do not have evidence of Russian involvement — just that our experience makes us deeply suspicious that the Russian government played a significant role in this case.

At 8:01 a.m. the same day, an unnamed CIA official sent Morell’s request to an official whose name is also redacted:

Below is a high profile/high alert action item for 19 October:

Former DDCIA Michael Morell submitted for review the attached manuscript (“Public Statement on the Hunter Biden Emails”). Mr. Morell has advised us that this article was co-authored with former DO officer Marc Polymeropoulos and that “many former senior and working-level officials from across the IC will sign and then be made public. PCRB has determined that this manuscript contains no classified information.” [Emphasis in original]

 At 11:44 a.m., five hours and eight minutes after Morrell sent his request, a person whose name is redacted sends an email stating:

You may notify former DDCIA [Deputy Director] Morell.

 At 12:44 p.m. an official whose name is redacted emails Morell:

 Dear Michael,

The Prepublication Classification Review Board completed its review of your article titled “Public Statement on the Hunter Biden Emails.” The Board determined that it contains no classified information and can be published. Agency approval for publication of this material does not represent Agency endorsement or verification of this work.

If you add new material, please resubmit it before sharing, highlighting the new language to expedite our review. The PCRB appreciates your cooperation with prepublication review. You may reach out to us via [redacted] with questions or concerns.

Kind regards, PCRB Staff 

“These documents are astounding. That the CIA would turn around a campaign document like this for Joe Biden’s team in six hours is insane news,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said. “This seems to be demonstrable campaign interference by the CIA, and that should be alarming to all Americans.” 

Judicial Watch has multiple federal lawsuits focused on Biden family corruption:

In July, Judicial Watch sued the DOJ for records from the Office of the Attorney General and Office of the Deputy Attorney General regarding the Internal Revenue Service investigation of Hunter Biden.

In June 2023, Judicial Watch filed a lawsuit against the Department of Justice for a copy of the FBI FD-1023 form that describes “an alleged criminal scheme involving then-Vice President Biden and a foreign national relating to the exchange of money for policy decisions.” Judicial Watch also asked for communications about the FD-1023.

In May 2023, Judicial Watch filed a FOIA lawsuit against the National Archives for Biden family records and communications regarding travel and finance transactions, as well as communications between the Bidens and several known business associates.

On October 14, 2022, Judicial Watch sued DOJ for all records in the possession of FBI Supervisory Intelligence Analyst Brian Auten regarding an August 6, 2020, briefing provided to members of the U.S. Senate. Ron Johnson (R-WI) and Chuck Grassley (R-IA) raised concerns that the briefing was intended to undermine the senators’ investigation of Hunter Biden.

Judicial Watch filed a lawsuit against the U.S. State Department on April 20, 2022, for messages sent through the SMART (State Messaging and Archive Retrieval Toolkit) system that mention Hunter Biden.

In December 2020, State Department records obtained through a Judicial Watch FOIA lawsuit showed that former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie “Masha” Yovanovitch had specifically warned in 2017 about corruption allegations against Burisma Holdings.

In October 2020, Judicial Watch forced the release of State Department records that included a briefing checklist of a February 22, 2019, meeting in Kyiv between then-U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch and Sally Painter, co-founder and chief operating officer of Blue Star Strategies, a Democratic lobbying firm which was hired by Burisma Holdings to combat corruption allegations. At the time of the meeting, Hunter Biden was serving on the board of directors for Burisma Holdings.

Legal Insurrection Through Lawfare — Part Two

“Insurrection is an art, and like all arts has its own laws.” — Leon Trotsky

“‘Lawfare’ is a weapon designed to destroy the enemy by using, misusing, and abusing the legal system and the media in order to raise a public outcry against that enemy.” —   Professor Susan Tiefenbrun, Thomas Jefferson School of Law.

“Just the minute the FBI begins making recommendations on what should be done with its information, it becomes a Gestapo.” — J. Edgar Hoover

“The great intel institutions which were designed to protect us against the Marxist onslaught have, in the end, become the most subversive of America’s institutions.  Anyone today could look at the American intelligence community and guess it was an “organizational chart for the old KGB.”  — J. Michael Waller

“A nation can survive its fools, even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within…for the traitor appears not to be a traitor…he rots the soul of a nation…he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist.” — Marcus Tullius Cicero

“Cultural Marxism, critical theory, and the other excreta of the Comintern’s Frankfurt School have rotted American society from within.”  — J. Michael Waller


James Clapper, and then John Brennan, were the workhorses who culturally changed the Intelligence Community into politically correct “diversity and inclusion” via Obama’s 2011 Executive Order 13583.  The EO established government-wide initiatives.  It was a presidential decree to transform the culture of the entire federal bureaucracy through implementation of “critical theory.”  The Marxist cultural revolution of Antonio Gramsci and Herbert Marcuse was successfully installed.

Clapper’s Enterprise Strategy was just the intelligence community portion of Obama’s carefully planned White House initiative to inject critical race theory into the entire federal workforce and to use that workforce as an engine of societal change.

In Big Intel, Mike Waller tells us that few in our intelligence agencies dissented.

CIA operations officer, Scott Uehlinger, who resigned and went public in 2017, said, “The twin serpents of politicization and political correctness—a Soviet term by the way—walk hand in hand throughout the intelligence community, as well as every other government agency.”  He added, “The U.S. intelligence community is in the midst of a severe crisis.  It has been used, or perhaps allowed itself to be used, as a tool of political destruction, against some of the same U.S. citizens it was created to protect.”

When the Obama-era political abuses surfaced, Uehlinger said, “We are seeing the widespread abuse of intelligence by an incumbent administration to target political opposition.  Long a technique in the developing world—a tactic I often witnessed as a CIA station chief working abroad—the Third World has come to roost in the United States.”

Former FBI agent and whistleblower, Steve Friend, who was suspended indefinitely without pay, commented, “FBI requires two separate diversity trainings per year.  No instruction on due process or cruel and unusual punishment rights.”

The men and women employed in the 18 different intel agencies have reincarnated the Nazis of Nuremburg with their, “Just following orders.”

The Department of Justice is the most heavily politicized of the U.S. government.  In 2016, 91.6% gave to Democrats.  Homeland Security employees came in at 75% Democrat, and the Department of Education was as high as 96% Democrat. The National Education Association has never donated to a Republican presidential candidate.

All federal government departments have moved from very liberal to radical via the red diaper/red thread chain of the Obama administration hierarchy.

Critical theory and Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) remained practically undisturbed by Trump and then emerged revitalized on the first day of Biden’s administration.

Legal insurrection through lawfare is being planned via Professor Rosa Brooks at Georgetown University Law Center.  J. Michael Waller, author of Big Intel: How the CIA and FBI Went from Cold War Heroes to Deep State Villains, comments, “It’s a feeder school to the Justice Department, to Supreme Court clerks and to the entire intelligence community.  Everything is planned there.”

A group of people meet at Georgetown University Law School to think through how to seize power from Trump if he were elected in 2024.  The intricacies of what they have planned are mind boggling.

They are planning an insurrection.

In his interview with Tucker Carlson, Waller discussed the Transition Integrity Project. What he exposed was extremely disturbing.

The Transition Integrity Project — Rosa Brooks

Red diaper baby, Rosa Brooks, law professor at Georgetown University and former Pentagon senior official, and Nils Gilman, a former vice chancellor of the University of California, Berkeley and historian at the Berggruen Institute, initially organized the Transition Integrity Project (TIP) in late 2019.  Other participants in the project include Michael Steele, John Podesta, Jennifer Granholm, Trey Grayson, Donna Brazile, William Kristol, Edward Luce, Max Boot and David Frum.  Despite all of them being left of center, the TIP is considered bipartisan and, as such retains a 501c3 tax-exempt status.

The Project involves over 100 current and former senior government and campaign leaders, academics, journalists, polling experts and former federal and state government officials…and in 2024, retired generals, who were chosen by Rosa Brooks for Obama.  Retired generals are not civilians.  They’re still subject to the Uniform Code of Military Justice and they’re involved as co-conspirators about overthrowing our government and eliminating a duly elected president.

TIP is a short-term project run under the auspices of the organization Protect Democracy which was founded by lawyers from Obama’s White House Counsel. “Protect Democracy” echoes the mainstream media mantra, “Our Democracy is in Danger.”  We do not pledge allegiance to “the democracy for which we stand,” but to “the Republic for which we stand.”  Joseph Goebbel’s propaganda of repetitious lies is perpetuated by America’s “Pravda” media in calling America a “democracy.”

The TIP was to decide the outcome and results of the 2020 election.  Their conclusion was that with a Joe Biden win, there would be no protests or street violence, but if Donald Trump won, America would end.

Their 2020 meetings were kept secret other than Washington Post’s report of their outcomes before the election.

Brooks is an adjunct scholar at West Point‘s Modern War Institute and a senior fellow at the New America Foundation, a liberal think tank in the United States founded in 1999. Top donors to the organization in 2021 included the Bill & Melinda Gates FoundationBloomberg PhilanthropiesFord FoundationRockefeller Foundation, and United States Department of State.  Here is the complete list of their funders.  All support critical theory and DEI.

Waller commented that Brooks, who as a senior Pentagon official selecting who the Obama generals would be, was writing about how we have to end civilian control or do away with civilian control of the military.

“She was wargaming out military coups against a sitting president, first after a disputed election and now being the host of an entire project to unseat a president who they agree would have been legally and clearly elected by a majority of the public and electoral votes.”

They are calling for a military coup.

Carlson believes Brooks is a “violence fetishist.”

Brooks has served as a volunteer advisor on defense policy to the Biden administration. She’s also a member of the pro-abortion Amnesty International USA, and has served on the board of Soros’ Open Society Foundation‘s US Programs Fund and as a senior advisor at the US Department of State’s Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor.  Brooks was also a consultant for the Open Society Institute and for the NGO Human Rights Watch.

She has contributed numerous op-eds and book reviews to the Washington PostThe New York TimesThe AtlanticThe Wall Street Journal and numerous other publications.

Rather than having secrecy as they had in 2020, in 2024, they invited media to attend.  A reporter from the far-left Atlantic Magazine was very disturbed about what they planned.  He said this was a real problematic issue for those who believe in the Constitution.

Waller stated, “Congress is funding things that they know are unconstitutional. The Justice Department is enforcing things that its lawyers know are unconstitutional.  And now you have Mary McCord in her group at Georgetown Law writing the whole orchestra for the transition after November of this year. To rip the constitution to shreds.

“This is banana republic stuff in the name of protecting the Constitution.”

Mary McCord

Mary B. McCord is another red diaper baby who shows up everywhere.

Her Juris Doctor is from Georgetown University and for almost 20 years she was an Assistant U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia. In the District of Columbia Court of Appeals, she served as Deputy Chief of the Appellate Division and as Chief of the Criminal Division.  She is a national security analyst and was Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General and Acting Assistant Attorney General for National Security at the U.S. Department of Justice.

McCord joined Georgetown University Law Center’s Institute for Constitutional Advocacy and Protection (ICAP), a left-of-center academic center at the law school that engages in legal cases on First and Second Amendment issues, among others. McCord’s work at the center has been in leading opposition to unlawful militias, stating that the second amendment affords no protection to private “militias.”  She also has participated on the National Task Force on Election Crises alongside other Leftist election policy advocates.

Georgetown University Law School receives a ton of federal money, but they also received Chinese money. Last year, they got a $30 million grant from a Taiwanese businessman who made his fortune as a financier of the Chinese Communist Party on the mainland.  This was Georgetown’s largest gift in its history since it was founded in the 1700s.

To give you the full flavor of her personality, she and Andrew Weissman hosted a live taping of their podcast, “Prosecuting Donald Trump” at Georgetown University.  She also did a PBS Hour with Judy Woodruff on “Trump’s false election claims being red meat for extremist groups.”

McCord was appointed legal counsel for the January 6th committee by Speaker Pelosi.  She testified to Congress, that the “insurrection” will require not only criminal enforcement mechanisms, but also “a civil enforcement mechanism that would allow the U.S. Department of Justice to seek injunctive relief and civil forfeiture against armed paramilitary actors and their organizations.”  Link  (The only people armed on January 6th were the capitol police, but McCord had insinuated in other venues that protestors had hidden arms under their coats despite firearms being illegal in DC.)

Her article, It’s Time for Congress to Make Domestic Terrorism a Federal Crime appeared in the website, Lawfare.  Imagine who would become targets.

McCord was also counsel for the Trump impeachment committee, both one and two, and is a statutorily designated amicus curiae for the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court and Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court of Review.

She has also discussed “Analyzing and Defeating Right-Wing Extremism” with the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.

McCord is married to Sheldon Snook, who also worked for the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia. In fact, it was McCord who got her husband his job as administrative assistant and court liaison to the public and news media.  She recommended him to Judge Hogan, of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, as she had previously clerked for him.  Snook also served as spokesman for the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court.  He currently works in a similar capacity for the U.S. Supreme Court.  Snook is a key player.

Staging the Coup

Waller states, “…This has just become one big club, one huge business, one big grift in many ways, but one big political war now, where you have a merger between hardcore political activists, violence fetishists and public enemy types and the people who are supposed to be inside our system to serve our country and protect our Constitution.

“The great intel institutions which were designed to protect us against the Marxist onslaught have, in the end, become the most subversive of America’s institutions.  Anyone today could look at the American intelligence community and guess it was an ‘organizational chart for the old KGB.’”

If Trump is elected, the TIP has formulated their plans to thwart his goals.

Look at Rosa Brooks from Georgetown Univ. and Mary McCord and her husband, Sheldon Snook. They know Trump only has one term, so their allies inside the government will slow walk everything, and already hundreds of pieces of litigation are ready against as yet unnamed Trump administration officials.  They intend to hamstring the entire team and all his appointees and Trump’s appointees who don’t already have clearances won’t get them.

McCord is a Washington insider with a husband on the supreme court staff, so they are networked with the Justice Department and the judges.  Sheldon Snook will make sure Trump’s people are kept in the right judicial venues to assure a court circuit who will rule favorably in their cases.  Worse comes to worse, they will remove Trump via their bought and paid for DEI and critical theory military.

We Still Have Time to Stop Them

Carlson asked what the RNC was doing and Waller said he didn’t know.  Waller made the comment that Rona McDaniel had a big florist and limousine bill, but no one knows if she was organized to attack against these entrenched interests.

He then mentioned that the Heritage Foundation has their “action plans,” as well as the America First Policy Institute, but both of these organizations are “controlled opposition.”  Their membership and donors include globalist Council on Foreign Relations members, the do-nothing Council for National Policy, and the American Legislative Exchange Council, which is funded by the Koch orgs and has long promoted a constitutional convention.

Congressman Pete Sessions is chairman of a subcommittee that has jurisdiction over Georgetown University.  He wrote a stinging letter to Rosa Brooks’ regarding the TIP results and the baseless accusations she made in her Washington Post article of September 3, 2020, just prior to the election.

Mary McCord was cited by Sessions for her recent comments, per NBC, that “We’re already starting to put together a team to think through the most damaging types of things that he [Trump] might do so that we’re ready to bring lawsuits if we have to.”

“It would be highly inappropriate,” Sessions said, “for a university that relies on federal funding to conduct partisan political activity intended to undermine a lawfully conducted election.”

Georgetown University Law Center needs to be shut down.

Conclusion

The last two chapters of Big Intel are a roadmap for what needs to be done.

America’s intelligence community, her entire federal bureaucracy, her universities and colleges, her corporations and board members, have adopted cultural Marxism, DEI and critical theory.

The Marcuse aficionados are planning a repeat of the 1917 Russian Revolution.  Only this time, it is happening in the “land of the free and the home of the brave.”

THE CULMINATION OF MARXIST INFILTRATION: Intel Agency Transformation — Part 1

“If a dictator ever took charge in this country, the technological capacity that the intelligence community has given the government could enable it to impose total tyranny, and there would be no way to fight back.” —  Frank Church 1975

“You can’t come forward against the world’s most powerful intelligence agencies and be completely free from risk.” —  Edward Snowden

“Intelligence agencies keep things secret because they often violate the rule of law or of good behavior.” —  Julian Assange

“Here at last you witness the real Barack Obama. The sound you hear in the background is the cracking of Obama’s nimbus of benevolent moderation. This is not ‘change we can believe in.’ It is left-wing radicalism aimed at the foundations of the American system of government.” — ­­ Diana West, American Betrayal: The Secret Assault on Our Nation’s Character.


“We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America.”  Barack Obama, October 30, 2008.

And, “We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we’ve set.  We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.”

Obama had the worldview, training, organization and talent networks he needed to “fundamentally transform America.”

Two years into his presidency, the conversion of the FBI and CIA, as well as the rest of the intelligence community, had begun.

This is the story of the players and their eventual goals.

Institute for Social Research

The 18 organizations who comprise the US intelligence community have been weaponized against “domestic enemies,” i.e., patriotic American citizens.

Intel has long been infiltrated with cultural Marxism by followers of Gramsci and members from the Frankfurt School, also known as the “Institute for Social Research.”  The founding of the Institute marked the beginning of a current of “Marxism” divorced from the organized working class and Communist Parties, which over the decades merged with bourgeois ideology in academia.

Soon after Adolf Hitler’s rise to power in 1933, the Institute first moved from Frankfurt to Geneva, and then to New York City, in 1935, where it found hospitality at Columbia University. The school’s journal, the Zeitschrift für Sozialforschung (“Journal of Social Research”), was renamed “Studies in Philosophy and Social Science”.

Founded by Carl Grünberg in 1923 as an adjunct of the University of Frankfurt; the Institute was the first Marxist-oriented research Centre affiliated with a major German university.  Max Horkheimer took over as director in 1930 and recruited many talented theorists, including T.W. AdornoErich FrommHerbert Marcuse, and Walter Benjamin.

Frankfurt School members tried to develop a theory of society based on Marxism and Hegelian philosophy. Tied with some of Sigmund Freud’s theories, they utilized the insights of psychoanalysis, sociology, and existential philosophy, along with other disciplines.  Marxist concepts to analyze the social relations within capitalistic economic systems became known as “critical theory,” a school of thought and interdisciplinary movement that combines social and cultural analysis with Marxist-oriented political philosophy.  It looks at society in a way to challenge power structures.

Both former FBI Director James Comey and Director Christopher Wray are promoting “critical theory” in the entire FBI.

Critical law theory education began to be noticeable in the Clinton administration and attitudes began to change.  That’s when we saw the cultural byproducts of American education now taught in our universities.  It is the Herbert Marcuse Marxist and Freudian theories which became so influential in the leftist student movements of the 1960s, especially after the 1968 student rebellions in Paris and West Berlin and at New York City’s Columbia University.

From 1934–1942 Marcuse worked at the Institute’s branch at Columbia University. In 1942 he moved to Washington D.C. to work first with the Office of War Information and then with the Office of Strategic Services. Later Marcuse would teach at Brandeis University and then the University of California, San Diego.

Marcuse’s critical law theory is now being taught in almost every university.  It is Marcuse’s communist interpretation of using the law as a weapon.

Critical race theory (CRT) makes race the prism through which its proponents analyze all aspects of American life, categorizing individuals into groups of oppressors and victims.

The critical theorist argues that to eliminate prejudice, Christianity, capitalism and the traditional patriarchal family all had to be destroyed.

This approach “yielded influential critiques of large corporations and monopolies, the role of technology, the industrialization of culture, and the decline of the individual within capitalist society. Fascism and authoritarianism were also prominent subjects of study.”  Published in the institute’s journal, Zeitschrift für Sozialforschung (1932–41; “Journal for Social Research”).

The followers of Gramsci and Frankfurt have stretched public opinion and interpretations of law to make incremental gains that are now obvious.  They’ve credentialed extremists in mainstream institutions and they’re cultivating new radicals to penetrate, infiltrate and occupy even more institutions.

“With a hat-tip to Chairman Mao,” they’ve succeeded in their long march through all of America’s institutions.

Their end goal is at hand…the actual destruction of our representative republic, our constitution, and removal of a president not chosen by the Marxist infiltrators.

  1. Michael Waller’s book, Big Intel, lays bare how the Marxist worldview has corrupted the entire American intelligence community.

This is the story.

Ayers, Obama and Radicalism

In 1995, a radical Illinois state senator saw promise in Barack Hussein Obama and introduced him to Bill Ayers and his wife, Bernadine Dohrn, the 1960 radicals.  Ayers’ network, The Weathermen, was a political faction elected in 1968 to lead the radical group Students for a Democratic Society (SDS).  They were responsible for domestic violence, bombings, shootings, and murders across the United States and were allied with cop-killers, mass shooters and other violent extremists.  They built radical union affiliated cells, and a block-by-block structure of “community organizing.”

SDS also gave us the Chicago Seven, a group of political activists who were arrested for their antiwar activities during the August 1968 Democratic National Convention in ChicagoIllinois.  Mayor Daley instituted a 10 p.m. curfew, and called out the National Guard to quell the violence throughout the city.  Daley’s television announcement told Chicago that he ordered the police to shoot to kill any arsonists, and shoot to injure any looters. Tanks rolled down the streets on the north side of Chicago.

The SDS members worked to force universities to hire radical allies as professors, who are today major influencers throughout academia.  Ayers ended up as a professor at the University of Chicago.  Herbert Marcuse, prominent member of the Marxist Frankfurt School of critical social analysis, had been Ayer’s professor and advisor.

Angela Davis, a Black Power militant, who bought the weapon used to kill a California state judge, was a student of Frankfurt School’s Herbert Marcuse. She then moved to Communist East Germany to receive a Ph.D. and later, in Moscow, to receive the Lenin Peace Prize from Brezhnev.

In the 70s, we left a church in Bloomington, Indiana because congregant funds were being sent to support communist, Angela Davis.

Valerie Jarrett

The Frankfurt “red-thread” was passed from Marcuse to Ayers and Dohrn and finally to Valerie Jarrett and onward to Michelle and Barack Obama.  FBI files obtained by Judicial Watch reveal that the dad, maternal grandpa and father-in-law of President Obama’s trusted senior advisor, Valerie Jarrett, were hardcore Communists under investigation by the U.S. government. Her father-in-law had a relationship with Frank Marshall Davis who decades later would mentor young Obama.

According to FBI files, Jarrett’s relatives were heavily involved with a group, Communist Party USA, whose mission was to “fundamentally transform” the American form of government and way of life.

Jarrett and her commie friends were instrumental in working with other Communist Party radicals to elect Chicago Mayor Harold Washington and Senator Carol Moseley Braun.  The Senator had a penchant for calling close associates, “comrade.”

Current and former aides said, “Obama has said he consults Jarrett on every major decision.”

In her book, The Red Threat, Diana West writes, “Obama himself recalls attending ‘socialist conferences’ in the 1980s at Cooper Union in New York City.  Later, Obama was the political protégé of a lifelong pro-Moscow and pro-communist operative named Alice Palmer, who launched Obama’s political career inside the home of SDS and Weather Underground terrorists Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn, who spent the 1960s and 1970s ‘in treasonous cooperation with revolutionary Communist governments in China, North Vietnam, and Cuba.

“Obama’s key political aides on the road to the White House were Valerie Jarrett and David Axelrod, both descended from and mentored by Communist and/or Soviet operatives who were also closely associated with Frank Marshall Davis in Chicago, historically a hub of communist/Soviet activity in the USA.”

The real Kremlin puppet was never Donald Trump, rather Barack Hussein Obama II.

Eric Holder

President Reagan appointed Holder as a District of Columbia superior court associate judge.  Clinton made him U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia and then tapped him for deputy attorney general under Janet Reno.  Holder met Obama in 2004 and they immediately clicked.  He had been a student radical at Columbia and belonged to a militant group tied to the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS).  He became a fanatical devotee of the Black Panthers who embraced Marxism-Leninism and openly called for Maoist-style guerilla warfare in the United States.  Holder became part of the armed mob that took over a vacant Naval ROTC office for a five-day occupation.  They wanted the space because of “the general racist nature of American society,” and claimed Columbia was also racist.

With Obama, Holder returned to his radical roots.  He clashed with Republican legislators in the wake of Operation Fast and Furious, a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives investigation of gun trafficking on the U.S.-Mexico border from late 2009 to early 2011. Border agent Brian Terry died as a result.

After Holder failed to respond to a congressional subpoena of documents relating to the operation, and in spite of an assertion of executive privilege by Obama, the Republican-led House voted in June 2012 to find Holder in contempt of Congress. The vote marked the first time that a sitting member of the cabinet had been cited for contempt.  Unlike Peter Navarro, and Steve Bannon, Holder wasn’t sent to prison.

In 2017 Holder became chairman of the National Democratic Redistricting Committee and took time off from Covington and Burling law firm to travel to various states to formulate a centralized strategy for gaining control of the redistricting process.

Holder’s law firm, Covington and Burling was fired by General Mike Flynn after he sought new counsel with Sidney Powell.

Centralizing Intel Agencies

Post 9/11, FBI Director Robert Mueller was kept on for two more years by Obama, after his ten-year term under President George W. Bush was up.

Excuses for the tragedy of 9/11 included the failure of intelligence communities to communicate with each other.  Mueller added a top-heavy bureaucracy to the FBI to ensure future cooperative knowledge by creating 63 new executive positions at headquarters and doubling the size of the Bureau. The Homeland Security Act of 2002 consolidated various domestic security entities all in the name of fighting terrorism.  Congresses and presidents had deliberately dispersed the intelligence duties across the government to avoid consolidation of power.  But in the name of fighting terrorism, Bush and Congress merged twenty-two of them into one concentration of power under the 2003 Department of Homeland Security.

Within six weeks of the 9/11 attack, the predatory American Security State was born with the passage of the USA Patriot Act; it was to expire in four years.  It authorized unprecedented surveillance of American citizens and individuals worldwide without traditional civil liberties safeguards.  It beefed up surveillance procedures and warrantless wiretapping under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) to enable the government to spy on American citizens.  FISA was just reauthorized by Speaker Mike Johnson, without protections against warrantless search and seizure. The Patriot Act finally expired in March, 2020 without being reauthorized, but federal law enforcement agencies retain most of the authorities granted by the act.

The Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act created a new government agency, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) which mushroomed to a force of two-thousand and grew a brand-new headquarters in DC.

The US Intelligence community had been decentralized among thirteen autonomous agencies, both civilian and military, but after 9/11, it became an octopus with tentacles reaching into every facet of the federal government and out into the corporate world.

John Brennan, former director of the Central Intelligence Agency under Obama, and James Clapper, former Director of National Intelligence under Obama, both signed onto the Democrat concocted FISA applications authorizing domestic spying on the Republican Party presidential team.  Deputy FBI Director, Andrew McCabe, Deputy Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, National Security Adviser Susan Rice and Secretary of State, John Kerry also signed on.

The Marcusian five-year plan was completed in Obama’s second term.  The Intelligence Community Equal Employment Opportunity and Diversity Enterprise Strategy was unveiled in 2015.  It was the beginning of the new cultural “Marxist commissariat” which allowed James Clapper to impose Diversity, Equity and Inclusion throughout the entire intelligence community.

In Obama’s second term, he appointed his aide, John Brennan as CIA Director.  Brennan had served at the top of the CIA under Clinton and Bush 43, but like Clapper, he had a radical past.  When he first applied to the CIA, during the Carter administration, he didn’t think they’d accept him since he had voted for communist Gus Hall for president.  They somehow cleared him despite his background being closely aligned with Holder and especially Valerie Jarrett.  Brennan executed Obama’s diversity order by increased hiring and promoting consistent with Obama’s critical theory criteria.  Some analysts called Brennan’s politicization of the CIA “soft totalitarianism.” Link

The pieces were all in place for the “radical transformation of America.”

Planned Military Coup

Into the limelight came Donald John Trump, and the Obama apparatus went to work.

Georgetown University’s Professor Rosa Brooks heads up the Transition Integrity Project (TIP) founded in 2019.  The Project was created to play out different outcomes from the 2020 Presidential election and see how each outcome would be handled.  The result was obvious, peaceful outcomes with Biden, explosive riots and protests with Trump. If the transition from Trump to Biden wasn’t orderly, the military would intervene to remove Donald Trump.

Two weeks after Trump was elected in 2016, Brooks wrote that they had to find a way to remove him from power.  At the same time, she called for getting rid of civilian control of the military, but didn’t state who would take it over.

It doesn’t end there.

A military coup is planned.  Rosa Brooks claims that if Trump is elected in 2024, they must find a way to remove him.  This is being planned through Georgetown University Law Center, the premier law school in DC.  “It’s a feeder school to the Justice Department, to Supreme Court clerks and to the entire intelligence community.  Everything is planned there.”

In Part Two, we’ll let you in on what the Transition Integrity Project has planned.

CIA Blocked Probe Into Hunter Biden’s ‘Sugar Brother’ Kevin Morris, Docs Show

The CIA appeared to instruct the Assistant United States Attorney (AUSA) for Delaware, Lesley Wolf, to block an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) team’s investigation into Hunter Biden from using his benefactor, Kevin Morris, as a witness, IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley said in an affidavit the House Ways and Means Committee released Wednesday.

Shapley, as a lead investigator for the IRS Criminal Division, was heading a probe into Biden in August 2021 when Wolf informed him that she and DOJ Tax Attorney Jack Morgan had been summoned to CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia. Wolf, Morgan and the CIA discussed Hunter Biden’s associate and benefactor, Kevin Morris, Shapley said in the affidavit.

Shapley and his team were considering using Morris as a witness for their case against Biden, but Wolf apparently shut the possibility down.

“AUSA Wolf stated that they were provided a classified briefing in relation to Mr. Morris and as a result we could no longer pursue him as a witness,” Shapley stated.

Morris has been a generous donor to Biden, buying 11 of his paintings and loaning him at least $5 million for tax debts and to cover personal expenses, Republican Kentucky Rep. James Comer revealed in a January press release.

Shapley asked Wolf to give him a classified briefing on the information she learned that prompted her to eliminate Morris as a viable witness, but she failed to share any information with him, Shapley said.

“Although AUSA Wolf initially appeared to be receptive to facilitating a briefing for me on the information, she ignored multiple attempts by me to arrange the briefing,” Shapley claimed in the affidavit.

Wolf, upon her return from the meeting in Langley, appeared to flaunt agency-branded merchandise she acquired at their headquarters, according to Shapley.

“AUSA Wolf proudly referenced a CIA mug and stated that she purchased some CIA ‘swag’ at the gift shop while she was there,” Shapley shared.

Shapley had been investigating Hunter Biden for potential criminal tax code violations until the DOJ removed him from the investigation in May 2023 after Shapley disclosed concerns to Congress about alleged prosecutorial mishandling of the investigation.

VIDEO: The Politicization of the CIA with John A. Gentry

Dr. John A. Gentry served as an intelligence analyst at the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). Dr. Gentry is currently an adjunct professor at Georgetown University.

Dr. Gentry received his Ph.D. in political science from the George Washington University.

About John A. Gentry

Dr. John A. Gentry is an adjunct professor at Georgetown University, where teaches an undergraduate course on the U.S. intelligence community. He writes regularly on intelligence topics and security issues more generally.

He was for 12 years an intelligence analyst at the Central Intelligence Agency, where he mainly worked economic issues associated with the Soviet Union and Warsaw Pact countries. For two of those years, he was senior analyst on the staff of the National Intelligence Officer for Warning. He is a retired U.S. Army Reserve officer, with most assignments in special operations and intelligence arenas. He was mobilized in 1996 and spent much of 1996 as a civil affairs officer in Bosnia. Dr. Gentry formerly taught at the College of International Security Affairs, National Defense University, George Mason University, the National Intelligence University, and Columbia University. He is a member of the Editorial Committee of the International Journal of Intelligence and CounterIntelligence, a prominent academic journal that focuses on intelligence studies.

Dr. Gentry has an economics background and received a Ph.D. in political science from the George Washington University. His most recently published book is Neutering the CIA: Why US Intelligence Versus Trump Has Long-Term Consequences (Armin Lear Press, 2023). He co-authored (with Joseph S. Gordon) Strategic Warning Intelligence: History, Challenges, and Prospects (Georgetown University Press, 2019). And, he has published about 35 articles on intelligence topics. He can be reached at jag411@georgetown.edu.

About Neutering the CIA: Why US Intelligence Versus Trump Has Long-Term Consequences

Neutering the CIA is an insider look at how political bias at the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has undermined its effectiveness both domestically and internationally. The central case study is the impact of the bias on the interaction between the CIA and the Trump Administration, although the origins of the problem link to Robert Gates becoming head of CIA’s analysis directorate in 1982, and then later, director of the CIA.

Holman Jenkins, Jr. praised the book in The Wall Street Journal: “A new book from Georgetown University scholar and former CIA analyst John Gentry, Neutering the CIA, is worth your time. His academic detachment makes all the more eye-opening his chapter on how James Clapper and John Brennan used diversity as a screen to fill the intelligence community with partisan Obama allies. Only a psychiatrist, though, can explain the media’s silence on the biggest resulting disaster, the fake Russian intelligence supplied by the CIA and used by the FBI to justify its unorthodox actions in the Hillary Clinton email case, now widely understood to have inadvertently delivered Mr. Trump to the White House in 2016.” Beginning in 2016, former and currently serving US intelligence officers, mainly from the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), conducted a major political campaign featuring public commentary and leaks designed to thwart the presidential candidacy, and then the presidency, of Donald Trump.

This “politicization” of intelligence, which traditionally is defined as the injection of personal or organizational perspectives into intelligence products to serve personal, ideological, or organizational interests of intelligence officers, reflected a remarkable change from the once-strong CIA ethos of apolitical public service. This book describes the startling political activism of intelligence officers in recent years, identifies its causes, and evaluates its many negative consequences. Most importantly, the activists damaged the credibility of US intelligence in the eyes of Trump Administration officials and undoubtedly many future senior national leaders, thereby eroding the trust in intelligence that decision-makers must have if they are to use intelligence effectively. Although the overt activism subsided in 2021, the Biden administration has not addressed its causes.

The evident success of activists in helping to defeat Trump in 2020 surely has emboldened some intelligence officers, who remain poised to attack presidential candidates whose political views they dislike. This book also identifies actions needed to address this significant threat to American democracy.
