Trump National Intel Director John Ratcliffe slams the Biden administration for changing the nation's intelligence focus from fighting terrorism to fighting "climate change." "Since that time, he's added focusing on domestic violent extremists, which they have defined to include parents and Catholics, and even now Trump supporters." "The intelligence enterprise is very good at focusing on what the administration wants." https://twitter.com/kylenabecker/status/1711593619348398164
#isreal In case you wondered how the United States managed to miss all signs that Iran was planning and funding a massive terrorist invasion of Israel, wonder no longer. The Biden administrationโs top liaison to Iran was spying for it. https://x.com/seanmdav/status/1711074952907030833
There are two stories bouncing around re infiltration of US Defense and State Dept by Iran.
1. Robert Malley was US Envoy to Iran, appointed by Biden, after having been lead negotiator under Obama of Iran Deal. He has been suspended without pay and the FBI now has an open investigation of mishandling classified information -- since he only dealt with Iran, it's not hard to guess what country was involved.
Maier's responsibilities on DOD's website are described as "all special operations, irregular warfare, counterterrorism, and information operations policy issues and the oversight of special operations peculiar administrative matters, on behalf of the Secretary."
These are two HUGE stories now given the events of the past 72 hours.
A key feature of the Malley hiring is the fact that he has known SoS Blinken since high school.
The Biden Administration is compromised by foreign spies.
2. Ariane Tabatabai, Chief of Staff to Assistant Sec of Defense for Special Ops Christopher Maier, is a long-time member of the "Iran Experts Initiative" which is a front group consisting of "academics" and others who "assist" the U.S. Govt in dealing with Iran. Email comms between her and various officials in the Iran Govt show that she has been taking directions from Tehran and reporting on matters learned in her capacity in DOD.
Anybody ever been to Israel? From a resources standpoint, there's nothing there. No oil. No minerals. Little water. Little arable land. It's hot and dry. In fact, it's exactly like the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. But you know what? In that land devoid of resources, the Israelis created a democracy that is one of the wealthiest, freest and most technologically advanced countries on the planet, solely through force of will despite their neighbors https://x.com/CynicalPublius/status/1711528991092568354 https://x.com/KefFarms/status/1711696962943164799
RICHARD GRENELL: The very expensive Security Clearance process is broken.
How is it that you get rejected if you smoked pot in college but you get a Top Secret clearance if you have prior relationships with the radical Iranian Regime?
TLR2: As I have written about extensively, the security clearance process was changed simultaneous to the formation of the ODNI and the weaponization of the Patriot Act. The DOJ, in actual life FBI, became gatekeepers to the clearance process. Start there. https://x.com/TheLastRefuge2/status/1711802147820462170
TLR2: Coordinated. Fired rockets first. #Israel responded to impact zone. That spread IDF. Then Hamas hit fences with trucks/bulldozers etc. Mass force 1,000+ Paraglides went deeper, targeting the festival. It was a well-executed op. Likely much more successful than planned. https://twitter.com/TheLastRefuge2/status/1711917311047729591
