Senator Marco Rubio was nominated for Secretary of State, thereby removing him from the Senate Intelligence Committee and leadership role in Gang of Eight intel; but Trump simultaneously put in guardrails against the neocon tendencies of the Florida Senator and junior McCain.
Rubio doesn’t have Ukraine/Russia in his portfolio, nor does he have diplomatic or policy control over the Middle East. President Trump has neutered the State Department, and the cherry on the proverbial cake is what he just announced.
Yes, President Trump has just confirmed that Ric Grenell will be the “Emissary” we have discussed. Great job Mr President (for all the obvious reasons).
With Nunes leading a private intel advisory committee and with Grenell being the most powerful, agile and flexible person to run strategic foreign policy operations, the tentacle influence of the Deep State is removed from the Oval Office. Now the official cabinet team can start pouring sunlight into the silos.
Without a doubt in my mind, the “emissary” is the most important person President Trump will select.
The Washington DC Intelligence Community (IC) actively work to isolate the office of the president. This is an almost impossible dynamic to avoid, caused by an entrenched and ideological adversary who has dug themselves deep into the apparatus of government.
The “emissary” is the person who carries the word of President Trump to any person identified by President Trump. The emissary is very much like a tape recording of President Trump in human form. The emissary travels to a location, meets a particular person or group, and then recites the opinion of the President. The words spoken by the emissary, are the words of President Trump.
The IC cannot inject themselves into this dynamic; that is why it is so valuable.
Researchers have replicated and expanded a prior study to investigate the role of dark tetrad traits in “virtuous victim signaling.” Across three studies,, the findings confirmed that narcissism and Machiavellianism are linked to this signaling strategy. They also revealed that sadism, while unrelated to signaling itself, plays a role in exploiting accusations against others for personal satisfaction. The results were published in the journal Personality and Individual Differences.
The dark tetrad refers to a group of personality traits that are socially aversive and often associated with manipulation, exploitation, and harm to others. These traits include narcissism (an inflated sense of self-importance and entitlement), Machiavellianism (a manipulative and cynical approach to relationships and social influence), psychopathy (a lack of empathy and impulsive antisocial behavior), and sadism (a tendency to derive pleasure from causing harm to others). Together, these traits can drive behaviors that exploit social and moral norms for personal gain, often at the expense of others.
Virtuous victim signaling combines the display of two types of signals—victimhood and virtue—to elicit sympathy, aid, or social advantages. A person engaging in this behavior publicly communicates their suffering, disadvantage, or oppression while also projecting an image of high moral character. This dual signaling has been shown to influence others, encouraging resource transfers or leniency while shielding the individual from moral scrutiny.
Virtuous victim signaling also describes one of the most common techniques used by parasitic groups. My somewhat frequent use of the word parasite on this site denotes destructive extractors of resources, control, opportunity, often coupled with sadism. A true human parasite deliberately causes harm, is abusive, sadistic, cruel while also extorting advantages from their hosts, who are decidedly victims of the parasite. I am not talking about interdependence, normal or justified dependence, being lazy, low ambition, eccentric, and so on. A parasite, and much more a parasitic group, is very seriously harmful. We see them proliferating all across the West. In nature broadly, we don’t think of parasites as having a psychology. In humans, parasitic strategies do entail conscious human psychological and physical abuse. ABN
Susan Abulhawa’s blistering speech at the Oxford Union was the most ferocious indictment of Israel in the last decade. Author Abulhawa—who is a long-term human rights activist—summarized the iniquitous history of the Jewish state in a few succinct paragraphs while shedding light on the obscene toxic ideology that has permeated the nation’s doctrine from the very beginning. Abulhawa ignored the fictitious claim that Israel was created to provide safety and security for the Jewish people and, instead, showed that the country’s founders were maniacally focused on seizing land while expelling or exterminating the indigenous population. Ethnic cleansing and land theft are not an unavoidable response to sporatic Palestinian violence, but the cornerstones of the pernicious dogma that animates the Zionist state. Needless to say, Abulhawa’s presentation was met with riotous applause that lasted for more than three minutes as the audience expressed their appreciation for her heartfelt testimony. Here’s part of what she said:
When I was in Gaza, I saw a little boy no more than 9 years whose hands and part of his face, had been blown off from a booby trapped can of food that soldiers had left behind for Gaza’s starving children. I later learned that they had also left poisoned food for people in Shujaiyya, and in the 1980s and 90s, Israeli soldiers had left booby trapped toys in southern Lebanon that exploded when excited children picked them up.
The harm they do is diabolical, and yet, they expect you to believe they are the victims. Invoking Europe’s holocaust and screaming antisemitism, they expect you to suspend fundamental human reason to believe that the daily sniping of children with so called “kill shots” and the bombing of entire neighborhoods that bury families alive and wipe out whole bloodlines is self-defense.
They want you to believe that a man who had not eaten a thing in over 72 hours, who kept fighting even when all he had was one functioning arm, that this man was motivated by some innate savagery and irrational hatred or jealousy of Jews, rather than the indominable yearning to see his people free in their own homeland. Susan Abulhawa, Oxford Union Debate, Jewish Voice for Labor
Jewish supremist strategy includes killing and maiming children. They do it openly in Gaza and Israel and clandestinely in USA and Europe. Children and young adults are easy military targets and very valuable for the harm they cause. Maim a child and they are done for life and their community suffers harm as long as they live. Maiming and disabling do not get the press that deaths do. A small force of 10,000 clandestine military operatives can easily disable more than 100,000 children in USA per year. ABN
Once you understand what President Trump is assembling (the phalanx) and once you accept the mission of the DC system to defend itself by isolating a weak spot in the mechanism, then everything from the assembly of the cabinet to the process being discussed makes sense.
Within a phalanx, if one shield drops the entire construct is compromised. The strongest shields need to surround the core with ferocity.
The recent Supreme Court decision affirmed the President of the United States as the unitary, plenary power that controls every mechanism of the Executive Branch of government, and as long as the President is acting within his “official duty” he holds absolute power and absolute immunity.
Think of each cabinet member as a shield in this political phalanx that surrounds the weapon, President Trump.
Yes, the phalanx is by construct an offensive fortification used to advance upon the enemy. However, the strength of the phalanx is its ability to be impervious to attack from 360°.
The phalanx advances, inch by inch against a larger fortification. In the transition team assembly, this is what President Trump is putting together.
Hegseth is a key component of the phalanx, the fortification process that puts President Trump at the center of the cabinet. Each component of the cabinet protecting the center.
The phalanx is the mechanism to carry the weapon that is President Donald Trump. The DC UniParty is looking for a weakness in the phalanx like a wolf circling a porcupine.
President Donald Trump has turned his focus to the “war fighters,” the men and women who carry out the mission objective of the Defense Department. The nomination of Pete Hegseth represents the confrontation of a power struggle that has been decades in coming.
The self-serving Senators are trying to block Hegseth, while maintaining a position of pretending support for President Trump. The DeceptiCon republicans in the Senate are in full circling mode, looking for a weakness to exploit.
The schemes of the conniving Republican Senators are transparently visible in the efforts of Senator Jodi Ernst, who is circling the phalanx President Trump is creating – while simultaneously inserting herself into the DOGE mission.
Ernst is doing Mitch’s work, under the instructions from Thune and Mitch. See Ernst with clear eyes.
The people behind these hostile orders should be arrested and charged with treason and war crimes. Destroying children is a major battlefront against USA and the West, as is mass immigration, poison vaxxes, covid panic, shit food and the childhood vax schedule, fentanyl. These are weapons designed to destroy USA. Connect them in your mind because they are connected in reality. Connect them in your mind to see the reality of what is happening. ABN
In research projects about detailed granular events attached to corruption in Washington DC, eventually you reach a point where you have identified the specific people involved. Things get sketchy.
When doing these research projects, you discover that certain DC “insiders,” media people and current/former silo staff, names most of you know very well, are also aware of the information you are discovering.
The “insiders” are generally positioned in such a manner as most of the information-aware public consider them “Truth Tellers.”
Alternative media gives the Truth Tellers a larger influence voice. This is where it gets interesting.
When you have nailed down the story with direct, irrefutable evidence against the bad actors, you start to notice a pattern emerge about how the Truth Teller media types consistently stay away from certain names.
If you do this long enough, and find the same outcome frequently enough, you realize most of these “Truth Tellers” are not that at all; they are, instead, Truth Managers.
The DC Truth Managers are willfully blind to the activity of certain people they have identified as what can only be reasonably assumed to be CIA operators.
There are bad actors in DC that I can believe are “CIA operators.” Why? Because earnestly after years of doing this, I cannot think of any other reason why they would be protected.
Be careful about assigning the label “Truth Teller” toward any alternative media DC insider who is a “reformed journalist” or “former staff member” of the machine.

There are four general aspects to the larger Trump legacy term that are starting to become very visible. This is the era when political change starts to become visible in real terms. We are all in the front row, on the cusp of a historic moment.
♦ The four generalized fronts are: (1) The economic front, which will be both domestic (Main St) and foreign (multinationals) as executed. (2) The IC/Justice front, which is inherently domestic. (3) The Legislative Branch front, this is where DOGE (Dept of Government Efficiency) comes into play; and lastly (4) The Dept of State confrontation with allies and enemies on all three other fronts.
Within #3, the legislative branch battle against the executive, this is where the spending issue, the purse strings, the power center dynamic over taxpayer distribution will be fought through the Dept of Government Efficiency, or DOGE led by Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy and a few key allies in both the House and Senate.
Because the nature of the DOGE battle is centered around money, the root issue is ultimately who controls the power within Washington DC. Control the money and you control the power. Inside this battle over spending the historic dynamic of the UniParty will be visible. Remember, Democrats want power, Republicans want money.
Mitch McConnell and Chuck Schumer have already started to position their defenses against DOGE and Trump {SEE HERE}. The committee chairs and vice-chairs are selected to keep the power of control of spending away from DOGE/Trump. Republican Chair Susan Collins, appointed by Thune/McConnell will not willingly let DOGE/Trump interfere in the way the Senate assigns funds. Ultimately this distribution is their power center.
DOGE is reported to be looking carefully at the Impoundment Control Act, challenging the system that places limits on a president’s ability to unilaterally withhold funding. According to Politico, Musk and Ramaswamy “believe the Supreme Court, which has three justices nominated by Trump, would be favorable to them.” The bottom line is the Executive v Legislative battle, where President Trump is going to try and reduce the size of government while congress keeps spending to maintain it.
In commonly held wisdom, traditional conservatives have always said government was spending too much, and reducing spending will limit the scale and reach of government. However, those same traditional “conservative” voices who call for spending cuts are the same people who previously called for ‘Obamacare repeal’, and when given the chance to do it – they disappeared. The Republican wing of the UniParty is full of those false conservatives, that’s why I call them DeceptiCONS.
One of the key people from inside the republican ranks on the upper chamber, is Senator Jodi Ernst. Currently she is positioning herself for influence and assist with DOGE; however, Ernst is not an honest broker when it comes to actually delivering a result. Like many of her colleagues, Ted Cruz, James Lankford and Mike Lee as examples, they talk a good game, write good op-eds, appear on Fox News, send strongly worded letters, and then do nothing.
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.
The obligation to alleviate others’ pain can be found in most of the world’s moral systems. It also appears to be built into the structure of the mind by evolution, as evidenced by the human tendency to feel distress at signs of suffering. It is therefore not surprising that many people are motivated to help perceived victims of misfortune or disadvantage. But the downside of this proclivity is that it can also lead people to be easily persuaded that all victim signals are accurate signals, particularly when they perceive the alleged victim as being a “good person.” When this occurs, well-meaning people might allocate their material and social resources to those who are neither victims nor virtuous, which necessarily diverts resources from those who are legitimately in need. Effective altruism requires the ability to differentiate between false and true victims. Credulous acceptance of all virtuous victim signals as genuine can also enable and reward fraudulent claims, particularly by those with antisocial personality traits. Our work raises this possibility and by doing so it advances our understanding of how the moral goals of those who seek to minimize human suffering can be most effectively pursued.
This study and this one—Virtuous victimhood as a Dark Triad resource transfer strategy—both detail the psychological mechanisms that underly successful strategies of group parasitism. Understanding the semi-complex nature of this strategy is important because USA and the West are today infested with a proliferation of parasitic groups working precisely this strategy. From BLM, to Soros et al funded DAs, to Jewish supremacists, to beta cuck feminists who have overrun academia and state governments, parasitism that feeds on public kindness and government boondoggle money (see also Catholic and Hebrew ‘virtuous’ illegal immigration orgs and the scams they work) has never been more serious or widespread. In Buddhist terms, each one of us is a ‘locus of imagination’ wandering in a realm of delusion. And each one of us chooses between living authentically by our own lights or by those of others. This paradoxical condition does not seem to have changed throughout all of human history, and history itself is also subject to this paradox, as is religion. ABN
The idea that virtuous victim signalling is a strategic behavior manipulating moral agents to achieve resource transfer was tested and supported. Results were robust across both a direct replication and a test of robustness to alternative measures of tendency to victim signal. The effect sizes are substantial, suggesting that much of observed proclivity to victim signal likely is driven by narcissism and Machiavellianism. Evidence that the strategy is effective, and that the effect is robust to actual moral status and victimization implies that significant aid is being directed to narcissists who are not victims rather than to those legitimately deserving of aid. Sadism apparently extends this exploitation beyond exploiting those triggered to offering resource release, into a license to attack the accused.
Contemplate the craven delusion of throwing away a positive, mutually beneficial alliance with these people. The Western ‘leaders’ who did this over the past few decades are among the biggest fools who have ever lived. They are and were pathocratic morons, idiots beguiled by evil. Not only have they thrown away that which they should have embraced, they have also worked assiduously to go to war with Russia while simultaneously destroying Ukraine, much of which is fundamentally and historically Russia. Eastern Europeans who suffered Bolshevik occupation under the Soviet Union have a species of excuse because that occupation was horrible. But by now they must realize you cannot base foreign policy on past wrongs. You must understand Russia today is not the former Soviet Union. I don’t care which pied piper is leading Western leaders astray, as we stand at the precipice of nuclear war, all Western peoples must stop this madness. Russia is now and always has been an integral part of the West and must be treated accordingly starting now. We don’t just want to avoid war with Russia, we want to form a solid civilizational alliance with Russia. ABN
I would add that there is a common Chinese perspective that closely resembles this Jewish one. It is that Russia and USA/Europe will destroy each other in a nuclear war, leaving control of the world to China. Ask any honest Chinese you know about this and they will confirm. ABN
