Yes, 2024 is going to be an interesting year. ![laughing0301 :laughing0301: :laughing0301:](/styles/smilies/new/laughing0301.gif)
"Apparently, the exercise of considering a Trump administration and potential cabinet for 2025 has kicked up quite a conversation. As an outcome, perhaps some expanded food for thought is worthwhile, and maybe even a little fun and educational at the same time...
This time I shall endeavor to put context behind the names and add some specifics to the silo challenge.
♦ Secretary of State: Ric Grenell.
♦ UN Ambassador: Tulsi Gabbard
The Dept of State is the front agency for the Central Intelligence Agency. When the CIA wants to seed an operative, they are given State Dept credentials. Whoever is running the State Dept will have a working relationship with the CIA Director. Grenell already knows how this works; he will be able to support the Trump Doctrine on day one with a full understanding of institutional context as the downsizing through attrition begins.
♦ CIA Director: Robert Kennedy Jr
♦ Deputy CIA Director: Kash Patel
See how that works? RFK Jr can put up or shut up, but Kash Patel is the insurance policy in the event RFK Jr is bearing false witness. The core agenda is carried out by the Deputy, while the Director is the functionary receiving silo information to satiate the executive (Trump). What happens in the layers below the functionary are what really matters. Kash has eyes-on, without the distractions of the functionary role.
♦ Defense Secretary: Vivek Ramaswamy.
♦ Asst. Defense Secretary: Eric Prince.
Many people understandably freak out with a Def Sec with no experience in military. However, the Def Sec is designed to be civilian led military; the President is the commander in chief. The Def Sec executes military efforts to support the President. This is the problem with having career military as Def Sec, they regard the institution as more important than the instructions they receive. [See Mark Milley and/or James Mattis and/or Alexander Vindman, they go rogue.] The U.S. military needs to be managed now, brought to heel and Wokeism removed. Ramaswamy, a functionary, can put up or shut up.
Again, see how that works? Prince becomes the insurance policy. The nuts-and-bolts guy to make sure the military silo is carefully reconstructed and the flag officers that need to be removed and replaced are removed and replaced.
♦ National Security Advisor: John Ratcliffe
♦ National Security Council (NSC), Chair: Michael Flynn [Tasked with taking NSC from current size to 30-50]
♦ Dept of Homeland Security (DHS), Secretary: Tom Homan
♦ Treasury Secretary: (Executive Privilege)
♦ Fed Chairman: (Executive Privilege)
♦ United State Trade Representative: Ambassador Robert Lighthizer [restart where he left off]
♦ Commerce Secretary: Peter Navarro
♦ Chairman of the National Economic Council (NEC), Chair: Lou Dobbs
♦ Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Administrator: Sarah Palin
♦ Federal Communication Commission (FCC), Commissioner: Mike Benz
♦ Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CPFB), Administrator: Pam Bondi
♦ Dept of Agriculture, Secretary: Kristi Noem
♦ FBI Director: Matt Gaetz / Josh Hawley
♦ Deputy FBI Director: Andrew Bailey
♦ FBI Legal Counsel: Rudy Giuliani
♦ DOJ Attorney General: Ken Paxton
♦ DOJ Deputy AG: John Eastman
♦ Asst. Deputy AG in charge of DOJ National Security Division (DOJ-NSD): Sidney Powell
♦ DOJ Civil Rights Division: Mark Robinson
♦ Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI): Rand Paul
♦ National Security Agency, Director: Thomas Massie
♦ FEMA Director: Jeb Bush [Yes, THAT Jeb Bush. He’s insufferable at everything else, but he knows how to handle emergency management very effectively, and he’s bilingual.]
♦ Office of Management and Budgets (OMB), Director: Kevin Hassett
♦ Interior Secretary: Marjorie Taylor Greene
♦ WH Press Secretary: Kerri Kupec
♦ WH Communications Director: Amanda Milius
♦ White House Chief of Staff: Dan Scavino (no question), or Kari Lake
♦ White House Presidential Personnel Office (PPO), Director: Steve Bannon
♦ WH PPO Deputy Director: Catherine Englebrecht
PS. First SCOTUS nominee: U.S. District Judge Andrew Hanen"
