“This isn’t just about Maduro. This is the final nail in the coffin for the CIA-black-budget narco pipeline that’s been running since the 80s.”

- The Ghost of Ezra on “X”

You must wonder: what exactly has CIA Director John Ratcliffe been doing over in Langley, VA, lo these many months since things changed bigly in Swamptopia?

Does he wander the hallways of that giant black box howling ineffectually. . . sit barricaded in his office playing sudoku. . . or is he doing what needs to be done: methodically uncovering and disassembling the diabolical racketeering operation that the agency has become?

One thing for sure: you have heard next to squat coming out of his mouth all year. Mr. Ratcliffe is playing a close hand in a dangerous game and I think that he is for-real.

The CIA, you understand, is the beating heart of the Deep State (a.k.a. the Blob). The Democrat Party and the Never-Trump RINOs are its errand boys. And that is why a ten-year-long coup has been running to smash Trump and Trumpism.

Mr. Trump is now striking at the apparatus of the CIA’s extra-constitutional power and influence: the election interference machinery that queers politics at home and abroad, and the drug cartel that furnishes the money to run CIA’s many black ops, finances the NGOs behind lawfare and gay-communist street action, and probably underlies many a congressional fortune.

Could POTUS’ autopen executive order debench Biden’s 237 leftist federal judges including Justice Ketanji?  It may be legally required.  And that’s only one of a multitude of consequences in Biden’s autopen illegality.

Revelations about President Joe Biden’s cognitive decline have exposed an “autopen presidency” run by unelected aides. Exclusive footage from the Oversight Project shows former Chief of Staff Jeffrey Zients and others admitting they propped up a president increasingly unable to perform his duties.

Thousands of documents—including executive orders, pardons, commutations, and judicial commissions—were signed by machine rather than by Biden himself.

On November 28, President Donald Trump declared all documents bearing Biden’s autopen signature “terminated and of no further force or effect.” He estimated that up to 92% of Biden’s official actions relied on the device, accused aides of running a “shadow government,” and warned of perjury charges if Biden denies the facts.

The Constitution (Article II, Section 3) and federal statutes (e.g., 1 Stat. 281 [1792]; 28 U.S.C. § 172; 5 U.S.C. § 2902) require the President to personally sign commissions, which must then bear the Great Seal.

The Democrats, or socialists, or whatever they are these days, are hopping mad over President Donald Trump’s construction of a ballroom in the East Wing of the White House, and while it may be their silliest freakout of the entire Trump era, it is also quite telling.

The ladies on ABC's "The View" were apoplectic when they saw images of demolition, a fairly ordinary way to begin renovations, at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. They echoed one-time resident Hillary Clinton’s complaint that Trump doesn’t own the White House, even taking to song about it.

What makes this argument so absurd, is that Trump is not building this ballroom for his personal use or glory. It’s not a vanity project. It is a long-considered addition to an executive home that lacked the capacity to hold large indoor events.

Trump, as has always been his wont, is looking to create grandeur, and that seems to be something to which leftists reflexively object.  The ballroom he is constructing will  survive as a symbol of American power long after we are all gone. It will be, in a sense, our generation’s contribution to the people’s home.

Trump wants this venue, this symbol of America, to be grand and classically inspired, a timeless marble monument to a United States that emerged from the 20th century as the world’s only super power.

On September 2, 2025, U.S. forces wiped a cartel pirate crew off the map in the Caribbean.

The target was a classic modern pirate craft—a swift, unmarked go-fast boat running low in the water, built for speed, smuggling, and violence. It was moving along one of the main narcotics corridors toward the United States when the operation commenced.

By the end of the strike, the boat was gone and all eleven cartel pirates on board were dead. It was the moment the new maritime campaign made its message unmistakable: If drug pirates tried to run the Caribbean, the United States would answer with finality.

The predictable wailing from the coastal elites and their favorite “human-rights” NGOs started before the smoke cleared. “War crime!” they shrieked. “Extrajudicial killing!” Spare us.

These were not innocent mariners. These were modern pirates—stateless, lawless, armed predators operating exactly the way Blackbeard’s crews did three hundred years ago, except instead of dealing in gold doubloons, they steal American lives with fentanyl and cocaine.

Did you see that protest this weekend? ? pic.twitter.com/pE1P1Qnfg4

The Saturday protests were a joke. Why did so many of them dissipate after an hour? Why all the animal costumes? Why did MSNBC have to use years-old pictures of alleged crowds? What do they have to do with “no kings”?

Perhaps the most mysterious, creepy aspect of the whole movement is their willingness to call for violence and the murder of those whom they hate so vehemently. These are demented people. They have been hopelessly inculcated with the anti-American, anti-Trump propaganda that the Marxist left is so good at propagating.

Our old hippies and the college students who have been so thoroughly indoctrinated by their Marxist professors are sitting ducks for George Soros and his ilk. These are the useful idiots, as Lenin called such people, who can be successfully relied upon to mindlessly further his ends.

That pretty much sums up who all those aging, blinkered “no kings” marchers were. Apparently, none of them know that the successful American Revolution rid the new nation of kings for all time.

Mosab Hassan Yousef has seen how terrorist movements build from the inside, as he grew up the son of one of Hamas’s co-founders. Now he’s warning that jihadis are putting the same destructive game plan that turned Gaza into an Islamic terrorist cesspool into action in the United States.

In a thought-provoking and bone-chilling X post on Nov. 26, Yousef spoke out to warn Americans that Muslim jihadis are as determined to take over America as they are to take over Israel. As Hamas’s backer, the Iranian regime, always said, America is the “Great Satan.”

Jihad is not just about the guns and missiles. It is also about the educational initiatives, mosques, propaganda campaigns, and political efforts.

Yousef’s warning is particularly timely as an Afghan immigrant just gunned down two National Guardsmen in D.C., and radical pro-Hamas Zohran Mamdani won the New York mayoral election. An Oct. 7 jihadi was also recently found living in Louisiana.

Yousef began:

Called “ultraconservative” by the liberal media, Japan’s new prime minister is its first woman ever in that position. But a Japanese feminist author told NBC News that Japan attaining its first female prime minister “doesn’t make me happy.”

Sanae Takaichi takes the reins of power in Japan with strongly conservative positions on gender and marriage. She’s much more like Margaret Thatcher than Hillary Clinton or Kamala Harris.

Takaichi opposes same-sex marriage. She doesn’t support DEI. She will strengthen the Japanese military, which would help us by creating a buffer against Communist China, and she’ll meet next week with President Trump during his Asia trip.

Takaichi’s election is part of a trend worldwide which also recently resulted in the first conservative president of Bolivia in 20 years. Rodrigo Paz Pereira won a stunning upset against Leftist control of that South American country, and he vows to establish a better relationship with the United States.

Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino unloaded on New York Post columnist Miranda Devine yesterday (12/01), accusing her of running yet another coordinated “deep-state hit piece” on reform-minded FBI leadership.

Bongino wrote on X:

“Deep-state Devine strikes again. Miranda loves attacking our reform agenda with gossipy anecdotes from disgruntled former employees because she’s upset that her ‘reporting’ keeps falling apart under scrutiny.

You can always count on Miranda for a timed hit piece when the Director and I make big changes. Miranda prefers the old guard. I don’t. Full steam ahead.

— Dan Bongino (@dbongino) December 2, 2025”

Devine’s piece centers on a 115-page so-called assessment compiled by a self-appointed alliance of active and retired agents who openly admit they were embedded during the Biden-era FBI, a period marked by DEI obsession, political targeting, Russiagate hoaxes, retaliatory investigations, and record-low public trust.

Florida Attorney Peter Ticktin has known Donald Trump personally since grade 10 of their high school days in 1961, when both attended New York Military Academy. Ticktin has publicly described Trump as a classmate and friend from that period and has often recounted their interactions as cadets.

They have remained friends for over 60 years. I had this conversation this week with Ticktin regarding his concerns about the Department of Justice and Todd Blanche’s role in running the DOJ and what it means for Trump’s second-term agenda.

 

What is Todd Blanche’s role at the Department of Justice?

Todd Blanche is the Deputy Attorney General, which makes him the second-highest-ranking official in the DOJ, serving under Attorney General Pam Bondi. My assessment is that he handles the day-to-day operations of the DOJ, like a COO of a private company. The DOJ has 115,000 employees; it’s not something that Pam Bondi necessarily knows how to manage.

 

What’s your biggest concern about Todd Blanche?

My biggest concern is that he may be ideologically opposed to Donald Trump’s agenda and see his role as stopping Donald Trump’s agenda in its tracks.

I do not know this man personally, and I am not involved with the decisions in the DOJ. All I know is that I see complete failure with pardons, compensation to J6ers, investigations into Dominion machines, the release of Tina Peters, and other matters under that guy. I am not seeing movement.

My opinion is that everything that needs to be done at the DOJ to make Donald Trump’s presidency work is being stalled by Todd Blanche. He’s intentionally doing things opposite of what needs to be done. As a result, morale in the Department of Justice is way down. He is supposed to make the goals of Donald Trump get realized.
