Rumor: Trump to Fire FBI Head Christopher Wray, CIA Head (and Brennan Protege) Gina Haspel, and Defense Secretary Mike Esper If He Wins Reelection

Good.

There was a story that went 'round about the insubordinate Jim Mattis.

The story was this: Trump told Matthis to prepare an orderly withdrawal from Afganistan. He gave Matthis six months to plan it.

Jim Mattis did not plan it. He intended to keep the troops there, forever, against the President's intentions. He figured he would just stall Trump indefinitely.

Trump was displeased that Mattis had no plans to get out of Afghanistan, so he told Mattis, "I want a plan in a few months to get out of Afghanistan."

A few months later, Trump asked about the plans to withdraw troops from Afghanistan.

Once again, Mattis -- insubordinately, and unconstitionally -- gave Trump the stall, telling him the plans weren't finished yet.

Trump then ordered the draw down of troops in Afghanistan, and Mattis and all of his cronies whined that it was "disorderly" and that they were not following an organized plan for withdrawal.

They ran the same fucking bullshit with the withdrawal from the Iran nuke agreement.

These people think they should be running the country -- but they don't want to go through the process of having their affairs, with both women and boys, examined.

So they just unconstitutionally seize power.

And then they whine to the press when the president seizes back his legal, constitutional authority to make the foreign policy of the United States.

At bayonet point.

And strip the bastards of their pensions.

Why the fuck should I be taxed to pay the cushy retirements of a bunch of treasonous assholes I never voted for?

As they're fired, Trump should give each one of them a business card with the address of the Chinese embassy.

"You want your pension? Pick it up from them."

Charles II of Spain, the last Habsburg rule of Spain, per Wiki:

The autopsy records his body "did not contain a single drop of blood; his heart was the size of a peppercorn; his lungs corroded; his intestines rotten and gangrenous; he had a single testicle, black as coal, and his head was full of water."[30] As suggested previously, these are indicative of hydrocephalus, a disease often associated with childhood measles, one of many illnesses suffered by Charles.[31]

Haspel, also impossible to know what's Beltway rumor, and what's true.

Wray - very dubious from the outset (silk-stocking Beltway lawyer? what? when the Bureau was in existential credibility free-fall?). His post-IG report (MidYear Exam) press availability was the most preposterous, clueless performance outside something from the Obama years, in recent history.

279 Esper's tied to Pompeo, who's been an excellent SecState, especially in context.

And Capt. Hate makes the key point most seem to forget - the Beltway GOP has been and remains possibly Trump's *main* obstacle, not the Dems. They share almost none of his agenda, for the most part. And that seems unlikely to change, even if they get the House back.

Judicial appointments, some tax stuff, the odd social bipartisan (and ill-advised) thing like "prison sentencing reform" aside, there's zero overlap in their priorities or desires.

Of course. He would have a hard time with wholesale firings. But slow firings from people who fail to exercise his prerogative - so long as it is reasonable and no doubt a draw down from ME is reasonable - are going to be easier to take.


In short, so long as the President has public support, he has a lot more political power to fire people.

Twin brothers and twin sisters each separately agree to trick the other's spouse, and end up sleeping with their own respective spouses. They find out after, and end up getting angry for their spouses' betrayal. They end up switching for the remainder of their lives without changing anything else.

*******************************

It's not an upset when the polls are a fraud.
They are all modeled on an estimated 30 million NEW Dem voters.
Early voting and VBM has proven that isn't happening.

Every single factor -- primary vote percentage (Trump got 94% of the primary vote -- no sitting POTUS who got at least 75% has ever lost re-election), crowd/rally size, new voter registration, the actual returns of early and VBM -- indicates Trump is winning.

The *only* thing that has him losing are PUBLIC polls.

Even Biden's campaign in sending out SOS fundraising emails stating that "the race is closer than public polls are saying." lol

If you think Joe Biden is going to do what very, very few people (only Reagan in my memory) have done -- unseat an incumbent president -- you need to wake the f**k up.

Battlefield commanders. That's not the same as who gets to sit in the big chair at the meeting of shiny uniform guys.

-------------

And this highlights the problems, during a war, the President has more political capital to spend in prosecuting the war. For much of US history, when the wars concluded, the military shrank and wartime commissions went away. We seem to be working our way out of this perpetual wartime footing. The President's say during peacetime is typically smaller because there wasn't much for the military to do. Well when the military brass is actively thwarting the President's ability to prosecute, or in this case, end a "war" the President's say should be as big or bigger as during wartime. And if the military is in such a stage where they may actively resist, then the military needs to be gutted.

I was just reading about "firing generals". POTUS can do that any time he wants. The only question is if he can actually remove them for getting paid.

It goes something like this. 3 and 4-star ranks are only for some position of authority and responsibility. Sort of like a need to rank thing. POTUS can pull any of them off that assignment. If they refused to resign, then they would revert back to a usually 2-star rank. And their pay would be cut back accordingly.

POTUS could probably ultimately fire him from that 2-star rank, but he would lose the 3 or 4-star pension and all that shit.

So the way it is set up, if POTUS wants you out, you retire immediately so as not to lose your rank and pension at that rank.

This polling business is crazy pants, so who knows what's really true. But I cannot discount what my eyes see. Trump draws 100s and 100s, sometimes 1000s of people in makeshift rally locations, car parades, boat parades. It's happening everywhere. In all states, in blue cities as well as red. Biden, Jill, Harris, Obama, even Bon Jovi are literally not able to get a dozen or so to show up, if even that. I have to believe it means something more than just covid fears. I have to believe because my logic at just seeing the empirical evidence tells me it's something more. Overcoming fraud is another matter, but something is happening out there and the pollsters and pundits are wrong.

509 Battlefield commanders. That's not the same as who gets to sit in the big chair at the meeting of shiny uniform guys.

-------------

And this highlights the problems, during a war, the President has more political capital to spend in prosecuting the war. For much of US history, when the wars concluded, the military shrank and wartime commissions went away. We seem to be working our way out of this perpetual wartime footing. The President's say during peacetime is typically smaller because there wasn't much for the military to do. Well when the military brass is actively thwarting the President's ability to prosecute, or in this case, end a "war" the President's say should be as big or bigger as during wartime. And if the military is in such a stage where they may actively resist, then the military needs to be gutted.
Posted by: That Guy (formerly SH) at October 26, 2020 03:31 PM (sX1BW)


Of all the things we have going these days, this is what scares me more than anything. Military types who have gotten so fat on power and perpetual war. They don't think there's anything to stop them, and I really don't know if they're right or wrong.

This is how far down the rot goes. Manafort, right?

They kicked his door in at four o'clock in the morning with a warrant that, IIRC, said he was suspected of, wait for it, failing to register as a foreign government lobbyist in like 2012. Of course, it was obviously not that, that was the fig leaf to get him in custody and toss his house and office for shit to damage Trump with. That's bad enough by itself.

Here's what IMO is worse: The guys who carried out the raid. A bunch of FBI guys got the briefing, tac'd up, checked their weapons, drove to this guy's house, breached his fucking door and dragged him and his family out of their beds at gunpoint over a PAPERWORK VIOLATION. I wonder what they thought. I wonder what the agent who yanked his kids out of bed thought--

"You know, it's lucky that I have an unshakable faith in the FBI and the American justice system, because if I didn't this would all seem really, really fucked up."

553 Wray said that Antifa is "just an idea".

Unless the Portland FBI office is completely incompetent, Wray knows perfectly well that Rose City Antifa in Portland is an organization of long standing, with a plethora of front groups, including "PopMob", which is intended to be the "respectable" face of Rose City Antifa, and has significant levels of funding and local support.

There's even a national council of local Antifa groups.

Fire his ass.

And even earlier, during the governorship of Gov Scott Walker/R/Wisconsin, there was a recall election, and Walker supporters were subjected to that same treatment. I'd have to look it up as the details are foggy, but people who publicly supported Walker, or gave him money, were targeted for no knock night time raids, dragged out of their homes, etc., for absolutely nothing.

From what I've seen, what he's done is go to the human rights tribunals. He's not going to the courts. The tribunal in the beauty salon waxing case noted in dismissing it that he was going after them for the money and because he thought owners of small businesses who happened to be of Asian or South-East Asian descent are hostile to the LGTBQ agenda. He wasn't doing it to prevent discrimination.

Anyone who supports Obama's Iran Deal is a traitor. Iran has never ended its state of war with the USA, since they attacked out Embassy. It amounts to giving aid and comfort to the enemy.

We do not recognise their government as legitimate. Giving the Iranian government's money to the so-called Islamic Republic was a theft from a future legitimate government, given to the usurpers that oppress the Iranian people.

He needs the same thing now. There aren't enough (if any) people in Washington he can count on to work for his agenda, so he can't just hire from the same pool he used before.

If he really wants to help straighten the government out, institute the plan to move 90% of the executive agencies out of Washington and spread them around the country. Go look at the list of federal agencies and see if you can find more than a few that really need to be in Washington.

Posted by: runner at October 26, 2020 03:51 PM (zr5Kq)

Esper has been a mealy mouthed little shit. Ever since this summer, he's taken pains to say that if there's any civil unrest, Trump better not count on the Military for any support.

Posted by: Tom Servo at October 26, 2020 03:54 PM (Kpl3J)

637 Even before the 2016 election, I was on this website saying that Trump needed a website and contact person to collect and vet applications from people just like Trump - non-politicians, non-swamp creatures who would like to help clean up government by taking a political appointment position for the length of the administration.

1. Believe me, they have it. That's why all the people who signed the Never Trump crap never sniffed a job.

2. We had to get past the period of time when people believed (OH HI, JEFF.) the idiotic Russia BS.

3. Now, we had to get to the election.

4. This time is going to be different than any second term in history.

I agree with your assessment.

They will argue (unpersuasively), that these are merely policy differences.

But, as you point out, support for a regime that actively pursues a violent campaign against the American military overseas and routinely announces their intention to destroy America is de facto at war with us, and support for them is treason.

"You know what? At this point I'd take him over many of the professional politicians that we currently have. We've bred a political class which has no ability except to get elected. They can't govern, they can't run their lives outside of politics, all they can do is suck up to voters to get a cushy job and a pension after six years. The bureaucracy is full of people who figured out how to get the proper credentials for a safe government job, but aren't adaptive or creative enough to handle unusual situations. This Kung Flu crap is a perfect example. The institutions that we've spent decades building, the political systems which we've given immense powers have all managed to trip over their own dicks because they are either too risk-averse, too politically short-sighted, or simply too incompetent to make good decisions."

Dolan Dark, among others, has a regular meme he's done, with the scene from Die Hard 3, where Bruce goes into Harlem with a white board sign.

Sam Jackson is in a shop with his nephews, and one of the kids says "Uncle, come look, there's a white man on the corner with a sign."

Jackson says "So, I've seen white men before."

To which the nephew replies "Not like this."

I'm sure the original white board said something racial, but the meme can have almost anything on it.

Seems to me some photoshopper ought to be able to replace Wills' face with Biden's.

752 There is something truly... historic (in a bad way) about the Biden candidacy.

He's not a real candidate. ALL of his support is due to "not the other guy". He can barely get his appearances into the double digits, time after time. He disappears for days on end.

This is beyond farcical at this point. The democrats who will vote for him have well and truly abandoned any pretense at democracy or the forms and expectations of a republic. They have jettisoned anything even resembling ideology.

It is pure partisan team-sports for them at this point. Heck, it's even worse than that. It's like professional wrestling for them. Just rooting for who they're told to root for. It's pathetic.

That is the gist of the collage.
Posted by: flounder, rebel, vulgarian, deplorable, winner


OK, I am 100% convinced. The photos pretty much prove it.

For those who aren't grasping the gravity of what this is about:

Joe Biden has a granddaughter named Natalie Biden -- the daughter of the (now dead) Beau, and therefore the niece of Hunter Biden.

Hunter Biden sent several texts noting that he is being accused of being sexually inappropriate with an underage female relative. Natalie Biden was 14 at that time, and is the only member of the Biden family who is the right age and gender to be the person mentioned in the texts.

Furthermore, in some of the texts, her name is insufficiently blurred out, and you can clearly see that he calls her "Natalie."

Meanwhile. photos from the laptop have leaked, showing hunter getting a "foot job" (i.e. having his penis masturbated by her feet) from a young woman -- VERY young, from what portion of her is visible.

You can clearly see in the foot job photo that the girl has two small birthmarks on her left ankle area.

Public domain photos of Natalie Biden show that she definitely has those exact same birthmarks on her right ankle.

QED, Hunter has photos on his laptop of him having sex with his niece, Natalie.

MEANWHILE, there are also texts on Hunter's laptop stating that "Jill" and her husband (i.e. Joe Biden) have been made aware of the allegations, and they did not report them to the police, and tried to hush them up.

FURTHERMORE, there are many many photos of Joe Biden himself creeping on Natalie Biden, kissing her, smelling her hair, putting his arm around her, etc. As recently as YESTERDAY, SUnday, Joe personally escorted Natalie Biden to church. She is reportedly his "favorite."

D43
R28

I guess if you believe the math, then that makes I29.

Donald at 42% with an R28 means...14 points comes from a I29...which is basically tied with Independents.

So, if you assume an even I split based on that, with an actual R29, D28, I43, that's a trump 2 point lead.

QED, Hunter has photos on his laptop of him having sex with his niece, Natalie.



MEANWHILE, there are also texts on Hunter's laptop stating that
"Jill" and her husband (i.e. Joe Biden) have been made aware of the
allegations, and they did not report them to the police, and tried to
hush them up.



FURTHERMORE, there are many many photos of Joe Biden himself
creeping on Natalie Biden, kissing her, smelling her hair, putting his
arm around her, etc. As recently as YESTERDAY, SUnday, Joe personally
escorted Natalie Biden to church. She is reportedly his "favorite."





Posted by: zombie at October 26, 2020 04:10 PM (HEEq1)

Excellent synopsis. I had some reservations about believing the allegations. I no longer have those reservations.

And for those who would say that this is a distraction from Joe's corruption, Joe Biden allowed his own granddaughter to be raped by his son for political expediency.

Speaking of "double first," that is one of my favorite nuances in familial relations: the double first cousin.



If one pair of siblings marries another pair of siblings, the
resulting children are double first cousins, and are as genetically
similar as siblings.

----------------------------

How does this work as a triple? Seriously, I know people in this situation - 3 brothers from family A, married 3 sisters from family B. Oddly, the youngest brother married the oldest sister, and vice-versa, about a 10-year age difference. The fourth sister married a first cousin of the brothers. Each pairing has at least 2 or 3 kids.

It boggles my mind. I'm a third-generation only child on my Dad's side, and almost none of my Mom's family remains. You could hold both sides of my family reunion in a one-car garage and still have room for the buffet.

She had an accident as a younger girl that required her to wear a cast on that foot/leg. It's a large scar.
But, yes, you are on point so far. It's all part of the Blue, Gold, Yellow program and the 3Fs program China has been running on America and European Countries.
Story related to Obama/Biden administration selling out the names of dozens of CIA agents to be murdered by the CCP. The story was written in early 2018 btw. Also related in next story is Hunter going broke in 2015 reported by the AP.

809 No photos of Biden fucking his niece. The video store guy has told us in so many words. IE: he spread the data around to protect himself. Anyone with the data has kiddie porn on their computer.

811 Is it just me, or is Daniel Craig a pretty good actor but a bad Bond? I like a lot of his other movies but he just doesn't convince me as Bond.

Sean Connery, Pierce Brosnan and even Roger Moore (who was way too old by the time he portrayed Bond) are better.
