Donald Trump’s transition team is planning for all political appointees to receive sweeping security clearances on the first day and only face FBI background checks after the incoming administration takes over the bureau and its own officials are installed in key positions, according to people familiar with the matter.
The move appears to mean that Trump’s team will continue to skirt FBI vetting and may not receive classified briefings until Trump is sworn in on 20 January and unilaterally grant sweeping security clearances across the administration.
Trump’s team has regarded the FBI background check process with contempt for months, a product of their deep distrust of the bureau ever since officials turned over transition records to the Russia investigation during the first Trump presidency, the people said.
But delaying FBI vetting could also bring ancillary PR benefits for the Trump team if some political appointees run into problems during a background check, which could upend their Senate confirmation process, or if they struggle to obtain security clearances once in the White House.
Go big picture. The FED will slow rate drops not because politics per se’, but rather it is a tacit admission they know the MAGAeconomy is going to explode – red hot.
Trump’s policies create actual deflation. We’ve seen it before. We know it first-hand. Goods prices will drop. Food prices will drop. Gasoline prices will drop. The dollar will skyrocket. Service prices will go up, but only because demand increases.
As President Trump imports American wealth back into the USA, we benefit. The multinationals, and their pretending financial media have to pretend not to know this; but you can see it in reactionary data.
The FED knows the Trump economic plan leads to almost immediate dynamic growth. Yes, they suck, but they suck because they pretend not to know how good President Trump is for the USA economy. Nothing more.
The President Trump transition team has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to start the process of transferring control of the federal government. The landing teams from each of the cabinets will now begin to engage with their exiting counterparts.
There were many articles written about the delays in signing the agreements. However, President Trump waited until he has his cabinet fully assembled before signing the first part that permits the landing teams to engage. The second part with government provided offices and technology is NOT being accepted.
President Trump’s Chief of Staff, Susie Wiles, announced the Trump transition team has refused to sign an MOU with the Government Services Administration (GSA), and will not be using cell phones, computers, offices or “any technology” provided by the GSA. This is a smart move to avoid the Deep State surveillance situation that was faced in the first term
In the first Trump administration, the GSA had wiretaps, office bugs, and gave all the electronic communication information from the Trump transition to the FBI, IC and later Robert Mueller. In essence, the GSA spied on the Trump team, then gave all the data to the operatives who were in place to target them. The Trump team is not making this mistake again.
…range is not the distinguishing feature of the Oreshnik just as hypersonic speed ( in this case 10 Mach) is not its distinguishing feature. Its fuel and launchers are the distinguishing feature.
The Sarmat is a liquid fuel missile that is launched from silos on land. These silos are hardened so as to protect against even a direct hit by a nuclear weapon, but their location is surely known to the adversary. The Oreshnik, by contrast, is a solid fuel rocket that is launched from mobile launchers that can be moved around and hidden under camouflage as required. Therefore, its possible destruction in a preemptive first strike by some adversary is far more problematic.
In the present-day context of the war in Ukraine, even without explosives on board, the Oreshnik has the force at impact to destroy everything below it to a depth of 200 meters. This means that the bunkers used in Kiev and elsewhere in Ukraine by US and NATO officers coordinating the military operations, and also the bunkers now protecting Mr. Zelensky and his war criminal confederates are entirely vulnerable to Russian attack at the time of Moscow’s choosing.
As regards Western Europe, the generally quoted warning time from launch of the Oreshnik in mainland Russia to impact in Berlin is 11 minutes. However, if launched from the Russian enclave of Kaliningrad, the flight time is reduced to about 4 minutes. This has surely unnerved Mr. Scholz and his little band of would-be warriors in Germany. Sooner or later the same arithmetic will be understood by Cold Warriors in Paris and Brussels. None of them will know what hit them if the Russians go on the offensive and attack Europe with the Oreshnik in response to the various provocations surely being hatched in NATO meetings this week.
I have never mentioned this on this site but I was repeatedly and violently attacked by Jewish supremists when I was a child, young adult and adult. I grew up in a sociologically above-average suburb in USA. I am probably alive today only because I had a good many Jewish friends, most of whom were unaware stuff like that was happening, though some were and participated. I believe some of those friends saved my life. The attacks were very serious, including cerebral maiming, sensory damage, poison, and of course all the other soft antagonisms like educational misdirection, backstabbing, cock-blocking, sadistic teachers, and more. I have written about this elsewhere but prefer to keep that separate from this site. The attacks we are seeing in Gaza, some of which are described by Nizam Mamode in the video above are the culmination of a Jewish supremacy strategy of destroying an entire people by disabling their children. In Gaza today they are outright killing the children, and murder is part of the strategy. But maiming and disabling, addling children’s brains historically has been a major tactic. Disabling a young person weakens their entire community while also being less obvious to others, either those within the community or outside of it. This is why so many Palestinian youngsters have been randomly imprisoned, where I suspect many are lobotomized, or why so many are shot in the legs or shot in the eyes or head with rubber bullets. The wounds do not kill and are thus overlooked by most observers but they do cause profound social and psychological damage that almost no one can recover from and few comprehend. Based on my considerable experience and research, attacks on children and young adults have been happening throughout the West since WW2. So even if you grew up in a nice community in USA or Europe, if you had a brother who went nuts, or a child, or father, you would be right to at least suspect they have been attacked in this manner. It is typically strong males who are attacked in this way. It does not matter that they never did anything wrong or pissed anyone off because the randomness of these attacks is part of the overall strategy to destroy whole communities. Jewish supremacy affects the whole world. It has infested the US government and appears to control it completely. ABN
…Even if Christians could convert the Jews, what would be the point, anyway? Jews are the way they are, not because their rejected Jesus, but because they followed Yahweh. Jews don’t need to be converted to a narrative that attests to their chosenness. Jews need to be converted to the truth. The truth is not that “God chose the Jews”, nor that “God chose the Jews then unchose them”. The truth is that the Jews wrote a book that says God chose the Jews — and, sadly, Christians believe God wrote that book.
…The Levites could convert, submit and tax the indigenous Israelites because they were not just a priestly caste, but a particularly violent and cruel band of conquerors. They massacred around three thousand Israelites in the golden calf episode (Exodus 32:26-28):
And Moses stood in the gate of the camp and said, “Whoever is for Yahweh: to me!” And all the children of Levi were gathered to him. And he said to them, “Yahweh, God of Israel, said this: ‘Set, each man, his sword on his thigh; cross over and come back from gate to gate in the camp; and kill, each man, his brother and, each man, his neighbor and, each man, his relative.’” And the children of Levi did according to Moses’ word, and about three thousand men fell from the people in that day.
In this passage, the Levites appear as some sort of military guard of Moses, terrorizing the people into submission to their exclusivist, ethnocentric religion, the cult of the Jealous God.
…Ultimately, many things point to the theory that the Levites came to dominate the Israelites religiously by military force. Which, of course, is consistent with the violence of their god Yahweh Sabaoth (“of the armies”), whose kill-count amounts to 2,821,324 according to Steve Wells, author of Drunk with Blood: God’s Killins in the Bible (the book title is a borrowed from Deuteronomy 32:42, in which Yahweh says: “I will make mine arrows drunk with blood, and my sword devour flesh”).
…Let us ponder the fact that, according to the Bible, the hereditary priesthood of the Jealous God was secured as a reward for the double murder of a Jew and his non-Jewish wife. Here you have the very essence of the Jewish faith.
…“Fear and terror” is the essence of the Jews’ control over the Goyim, but it is also the essence of the Jews’ control over the Jews themselves. The Tanakh was written by generations of Levites as a means of controlling the Israelites by the fear of a bogeyman god. Which is why, in Biblical terms, a good Jew is a God-fearing Jew.
The Covenant is based on the permanent threat of destruction. Jews who challenge their God-appointed elites and who socialize with their non-Jewish neighbors, who eat with them, who intermarry with them, and who, while doing all this, show respect to their gods, are the dregs of the Jewish people, traitors to Yahweh and to their race. They deserve to be eliminated without mercy, especially since they endanger the whole community by attracting Yahweh’s wrath. The fact that the Levites’ authority is founded on violence and terror is plain enough in Leviticus:
And if, in spite of this, you will not listen to me but go against me, I shall go against you in fury and punish you seven times over for your sins. You will eat the flesh of your own sons, you will eat the flesh of your own daughters. I shall destroy your high places and smash your incense-altars; I shall pile your corpses on the corpses of your foul idols and shall reject you. I shall reduce your cities to ruins, etc. (26:27-31).
…In Numbers 16-17, a group of two hundred and fifty Levites led by Korah are themselves exterminated for having rebelled against Moses and Aaron. “I am going to destroy them here and now,” said Yahweh, and “Fire then shot out from Yahweh and consumed the two hundred and fifty men offering incense” (16:20-35). “On the following day, the whole community of Israelites were muttering against Moses and Aaron and saying, ‘You are responsible for killing Yahweh’s people!’” Then Yahweh said “I am going to destroy them here and now,” and a plague decimated fourteen thousand seven hundreds of them (17:6-14).
Today’s Jewish elites might not be Levites in the strict sense, but Jewishness is still a system of mind control by terror. Jewishness is a form of Stockholm syndrome. As Smilesburger says in Philip Roth’s novel Operation Shylock: “To appeal to a crazy, violent father, and for three thousand years, that is what it is to be a crazy Jew!”[9] Jews feel hated by all of humankind (the Jews are “the people chosen for universal hatred,” wrote proto-Zionist Leon Pinsker[10]), but this may be, in part, a case of Freudian projection: deep inside, they know that the god who chose them is the god of hate, not of love. This fake god conjured up by the Levites only loves them as long as they obey his crazy laws without discussion, but hates them as soon as they try to be think and act as free human beings.
That is why the only way to ultimately save the Jews is to expose the evilness of their leadership. “The evils of Israel are the evils of leadership,” wrote Jewish publisher Samuel Roth in Jews Must Live: An Account of the Persecution of the World by Israel on All the Frontiers of Civilization (1934). He blames all the suffering of the Jews on “the stupendous hypocrisy and cruelty imposed upon us by our fatal leadership.”
…Historical criticism has shown that Jewish monotheism was established, not when God chose the Jews, but when the Jews declared their prehistoric, holocaust-loving national god to be the only god, therefore God. We need to acknowledge and to tell the Jews that their god is not God, but the god of genocide — as Athena is both the goddess of the Athenians and the goddess of wisdom. The Jewish god (by Yahweh, Hashem or any other name) is a nasty, greedy, vengeful devil that has enslaved the Jews spiritually. Judaism is a case of collective demonic possession.
I am posting this because it is fascinating, deals well with religion, and because it directly addresses the extremely gruesome violence that is woven into the Old Testament and the psychopathy of its God. Since I was young, I was never able to imbibe this aspect of any of the Abrahamic religions. I understand how it can work on various levels for some people I respect, but overall it simply sounds crazy to me, a cult of insane violence and abuse. I apologize to Laurent Guyénot for excerpting so much of his article but my motivation for that is to attract more readers to his work. His book From Yahweh to Zion: Jealous God, Chosen People, Promised Land…Clash of Civilizations is an informative overview of Jewish religious and social history. I highly recommend it to everyone.

Since questioning the Holocaust is illegal in much of the West, all Western peoples are more or less morally obligated to question the Holocaust. This is how we the plebs can and must fight back against totalitarian mind-control perpetrated against us by the powers that be, however you conceive of them. It’s as simple as that. We do not all need to agree on exactly what happened but we can all roughly agree that whenever rational speech is made illegal something is deeply wrong. Our power lies in knowing that and acting on that in whichever ways are appropriate for us and not too scary (for whoever you are, for whatever reason). I mention fear because mind-control myths are typically backed by terror, fear of ostracism, fear of ridicule. Recall the stern threats against ‘antivaxxers’ who dared to question the conspicuously unproved ‘safe and effective’ covid vaxxes. By most of us simply refusing to take that vax or to continue taking that vax, its popularity has fallen to record lows and that myth has been busted. The basic strategy of all of us roughly agreeing on important topics is the only way we can prevent WW3 and increased totalitarianism throughout the West. In this vein, I encourage all readers of ABN to click on the link above and at least skim the material presented. ABN
