Prologue ‐ Selecting America's Presidents

Humans are imperfect. So, not unsurprisingly, America's Presidents are quite often very imperfect. Much of this imperfection is the result of loss of patriotism and morality, and the attendant cultural change and so‐called "cultural wars". However, equally to blame is how we select America's Presidents. We seem to select the most imperfect people. (and we select them using a very imperfect system)

The popular vote is a farce because our system gives equal voting power to everyone. Which, quite simply, means that an anarchist non‐working welfare sucker can cancel the vote of a real American who has a job and pays taxes.

Furthermore, the popular votes means that the inner‐city thugs quite often have more voting power than their providers. It's an insane system, but it's all by design,

Page 4 of 121 as created by the pinko‐commie‐liberals, and it's been that way since about 1964.

Put simply, allowing negroes to vote is just another way that the Marxist elites and their liberal cronies can control the White middle class working man.

Additionally, the negro and other commie voters don't necessarily have to even show up at the polls in order to flip an election. As Joseph Stalin said, "Those who vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything."

Modern Presidents who are both imperfect and imperfectly elected, project their imperfection a billion‐fold by delivering imperfect leadership. The world has become a dangerous place, where unbelievable levels of military power are concentrated in the hands of only a few key decision makers, who figuratively have their collective "fingers on the button".

World War Two was effectively ended in August of 1945, by the use of two small "demonstration" nukes on Japanese soil, on targets that had no specific military or political value.

Why should the current unending threats and conflicts ‐ which is really Word War Three under other names ‐ end any differently? In the final abstract, is the judicious use of one well‐placed nuke really beyond the realm of reason? Or, should major destructive acts be avoided at all costs?

For most civilians, we can philosophically ponder those questions cloaked in our shield of non‐participation, but for those who wear the uniform, the questions are real, the options are available, and that unthinkable decision may ultimately be forced upon those who wield the most terrible of powers.

Ultimately, it's up to the military. The President can initiate a First Strike Order, but only the military can decide is it's a legal order, and in the broader picture, only the military can decide whether or not they will follow an illegal order, or generalizing to the next level, will the military follow an illegal President?

Some would say that the Federal Government (and the American President, especially) have too much power, or at the very least, that power isn't used for its purest most important purpose, which is to protect every American's God‐given rights, as guaranteed in the Bill of Rights.

Something had to change, it was way past time for a change, and as Real Americans approached the "Tipping Point" in our affairs, by God, there would be a change.

Page 5 of 121 Chapter One ‐ Psychopaths Rule the World

"…only a crazy person would want to be the President of the United States…"

It has been observed by many sociologists, psychologists, and psychiatrists, that psychopaths tend to gravitate towards positions of power. Additionally, there is the even more dangerous subset of narcissistic psychopaths, who almost always excel as actors, salesmen, or politicians.

People diagnosed with a Narcissistic Personality Disorder ("NPD") are characterized by extreme and generally unwarranted feelings of self‐importance. They have a sense of entitlement and demonstrate grandiosity in their beliefs and behavior. The world owes them a living. Narcissists have a strong need for admiration, but often lack feelings of empathy.

These qualities may initially develop as defenses against feelings of loneliness, or inferiority, or of being unloved. Persons with unclear or mixed racial, cultural, or family identity may be at higher risk of ultimately becoming NPD‐Psychos. These often "unwanted" persons might invent grandiose alternate identities, and perhaps invent a past, which simply never happened. They can easily become a self‐contained evil of their own creation.

NPD‐Psychopaths expect to be recognized as superior and special, without actually achieving superior accomplishments. They need and expect constant attention, admiration and positive reinforcement from others. The NPD‐Psycho is extremely sensitive of his place in the social‐ value hierarchy. He may envy others and believe that others envy him. They are often preoccupied with thoughts and fantasies of great success; they believe themselves to have enormous attractiveness, power, and intelligence; they seek money, power, and influence. A typical NPD‐Psycho lacks the ability to empathize with the feelings or desires of others. They are arrogant in attitudes and behavior. Lastly, they will likely have expectations of special treatment that are unrealistic.

Mental health professionals diagnose millions of people every year with various conditions, but what would happen (in theory) if those same psychiatrists were allowed to examine politicians and other leaders?

In recent years, real scientific psychological profiling has revealed that much of the so‐called "leadership" and "strength" traits that we believe are necessary for rulers… those same traits are very often found in clinically diagnosed NPD‐psychopaths. We are led by nutjobs.

Page 6 of 121 Constitutional Rights? Inalienable Rights? Human Rights? NPD‐Politico‐Psychopaths know how to make evil seem good, and make the unacceptable seem normal, and the extreme seem necessary, and the illegal seem legal, and the most horrific acts seem necessary.

NPD‐Psychos must have "Low Empathy", in order to be successful as "strong" (brutal) leaders. These slightly crazy leaders will claim to act on our behalf, but they do not answer to us. They make war and kill in the interests of the State, not in the interests of the people. They rationalize "wrong" and they believe that they are "right". NPD‐Psychos ignore these obvious contradictions and shrug it off without any sense of hypocrisy.

But, it becomes a good deal more than hypocrisy, when psychopaths rule the world.

Chapter Two ‐ Odd Man In

2008 Election

On "Super Tuesday", 05‐February‐2008, Barack Hussein Obama II received 88‐ percent of the Black Vote, or the "bloc vote", as South Carolina Senator Strom Thurmond used to refer to it.

Bill and Hillary Clinton had surely been among the biggest advocates of black interests and of the "Black Agenda" in recent American politics. Bill Clinton is even warmly referred to as the "first Black President" for his unrelenting support of the Black Agenda. (and perhaps also because of Bill's liberal attitudes towards sex, drugs, and employment)

Under the 1992‐2000 Clinton administrations, the massive government‐mandated racial discrimination against Whites (euphemistically referred to as "Affirmative Action") became even more pervasive in both the public and private sector. Better‐ qualified Whites, Asians, and Hispanics faced racial discrimination in jobs, scholarships, union admittance, college admittance, promotions in academia, business and industry and the military, and in publicly bid contracts.

Millions of Whites have been victims of Black criminality. More millions have been forced to abandon, with great financial difficulty, the public school system that their own taxes overwhelmingly pay for because of the horrid conditions caused by the racial realities in those schools. Millions of Whites have seen massive immigration transform their communities from the clean and safe places of American heritage to

Page 7 of 121 ghettos and barrios of dilapidation, trash and crime. The Clintons had been at the forefront of the policies that have so harmed the White American Majority.

However, on Super Tuesday in 2008, everything the Clintons had done for the Black Radicals counted for absolutely nothing among the black voters.

The Atlanta Journal exit poll revealed that on Super Tuesday 2008 at least 88‐percent of the black voters pulled the lever for the black candidate, Barack Obama. Owing to the fact that he was a relative political newcomer in 2008, Barack Obama had accomplished little to advance the Black agenda, certainly nothing comparable to the Clinton‐era "achievements".

Obama surely did not receive the black vote because his proposed policies were more in line with the black community. The Obama and Clinton proposed policies were essentially identical on welfare, health care, and in what both candidates called the "mistreatment of Black criminals." Both Obama and Clinton alleged that a racist criminal justice system exists in America. Both of them wanted to let hundreds of thousands of black criminals out of jail.

So why did blacks overwhelmingly vote for Obama on Super‐Tuesday, 2008? Did Obama offer a remarkably different program than Clinton?

There is clearly only one overriding factor in the Black Voters choice of Obama. He was perceived as one of them. The black voters were motivated by a racial loyalty. They voted for Obama because he is black, period.

Such is the clear hypocrisy of the American political system. Every candidate is grilled by the media and minority special interest groups as to what they will specifically do for the blacks, the Hispanics, etc. Often the questions are expressed as, "Why should African Americans vote for you?" or "What will you do to address the issues important to black people in America." The same kinds of questions are also addressed from the Mexican or "Hispanic" point of view.

In 2008, not one candidate dared to appeal directly to the needs and issues facing White or Asian people in America. No reporters asked the candidates, "Why should White people vote for you?" Or, "What will you do about the issues that are important to the White American majority?" or, "How will you help the best and the brightest, what will you do for Asian college students"?

2020 Election

On Super Tuesday, March 3, 2020, Joe Biden's handlers and promoters assembled a

Page 8 of 121 coalition of mostly minority supporters that made him the Democratic nominee via wins in ten of the 14 states holding contests that day. Again, Just like for Obama in 2008, African‐Americans were Joe Biden's base.

According to exit polls, Biden won 58 percent of black voters across the vast Super Tuesday landscape. The example set by South Carolina's electorate, and amplified by high‐profile endorsements from black opinion‐leaders like Jim Clyburn, appeared to boost Biden into the coveted position of leading a "colored" coalition that accurately reflected the left wing of the Democratic Party.

In the days immediately after Obama's Super Tuesday in 2008, and after Joe Biden's Super Tuesday in 2020, not one national media commentator pointed out the racist nature of the overwhelming mass of black voters. No one pointed out the racist nature of the media establishment and the racism of every major candidate in being concerned only about the needs or interests of blacks. Not even one journalist dared to even suggest that there are separate needs shared in common by the vast majority of the White population, just as there are separate interests shared in common by blacks.

The Mainstream media calls it "fairness and compassion" if you address issues of importance to black people. but to address the needs of White people is called "racism."

Who are the real racists in America? America has found out the shockingly brutal answer to that question, but perhaps Donald Trump would ultimately have the last laugh.

Chapter Three ‐ Farewell to the Chief

The election of 08‐November‐2016 was arguably the last free and legitimate election in America's history. Four years later, on 04‐November‐2020, the election was stolen and the vote was robbed when democratic party political operators, who followed only the call of "BLM" and "ANTIFA", stuffed the ballot boxes in every "minority‐ controlled" precinct.

President Donald John Trump, a man more comfortable as king‐maker than king, spent his final days in office in January, 2021 worrying not so much about his legacy, but worrying what would happen to his country, to America.

Trump sat daydreaming in the oval office, a President going out, who had inherited

Page 9 of 121 the Wars of Bush and Obama, largely unnecessary wars in the Middle East. Trump contrasted those so‐ called "righteous wars", as some saw them, versus the cultural wars within America that had swept President‐elect Biden‐Harris to an illicit victory. Joseph Robinette Biden Jr., a nigger‐lover with an unusual middle name, who was the embodiment of the evil dreams of the pinko‐commie leftists. "How far has America fallen", mused Trump. "If the American public only knew the real truth about that demented old man", thought Trump. "Yeah, that's a guy worth keeping an eye on."

Fortunately for Donald Trump ‐ when you're the President ‐ you don't have to think too much for yourself. There are aides, and speech writers, and policy wonks, and advisors, and Generals, and Admirals, and an unending stream of "experts" in every field. But, in quiet moments like these, President Trump did just that. He thought, and he thought deeply, and it came to him that perhaps these 4‐year terms are just an artificial construct, simply the American Republic's way of providing the "appearance" that leadership was periodically re‐ distributed and shared at the helm of a pseudo‐democracy.

Finally, President Trump decided that his obligations to America, to its people, were in fact without end, and he would not, and he could not, simply "end" his presidency at 12:00 Noon on 20‐January‐2021. "Without end". Those words made Trump chuckle as he hummed the simple resonant rhyme of the Gloria Patri, the doxology, "Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost; As it was in the beginning, it is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen."

"Without End", Trump spoke aloud, and he scribbled a note on his calendar, "call Gary Phelps".

The final days would go by quickly, the transition teams were constantly going in and out. Trump deferred a few executive order decisions to the "new guys", but he continued to occasionally sign "letters of findings" and other essentially "secret documents". Finally, on Friday, 15 January 2021, President Trump signed one last series of special letters, which embodied "findings", "authorizations", and "secret instructions". Trump penned these himself, and had the actual typing performed by one trusted staff member. With that done, he locked the letters in his safe, and he asked a staffer to immediately find Agent Gary Phelps, and to arrange a special private meeting with the agent.

On Saturday, Agent Phelps flew from Blaine, Washington to meet the President. The two men were old friends, with an odd and secretive shared history, but still Gary had no idea what the meeting was about.

The invitation memo included a personal note, asking Gary to bring his "child bride",

Page 10 of 121 Annie, along with him, so Gary just guessed it was a personal goodbye, especially given the intimacy of a Sunday afternoon meeting at the White House, scheduled for the next day, 17 January.

Gary wasn't good at saying "goodbye", nor did he accept change easily. Gary had "quick emotions", as his Priest told him when he was growing up near Beloit, Wisconsin. Gary was quick to anger, and quick to feel love, and that was almost his undoing.

While on an ICE‐Team assignment in Cambodia in 2010, Gary rescued Annie Liang, then a 13‐year old Vietnamese orphan, held captive by a child prostitution gang in Phnom Penh. He fell for her immediately, he couldn't let her out of his sight, and they were soon married, but only after submitting to every legal hassle known to American jurisprudence and bureaucracy.

It almost cost Gary his job, but his love for Annie was as passionate as it was illogical. That was 11‐ years ago, and now Annie was finally 24, and she and the 50‐year old agent could now at least travel together, without too many problems, but with still a few raised eyebrows.

Gary's love (and perhaps lust) for children established his cover in the DHS. He could go in and out of almost any country on the planet, claiming to be searching for American pedophiles. No country ever refused him official entry, and that gave Gary cover for his real tasks, as a CIA/NSA operative. Also absent from the official version of his CV was Gary's stint in the Navy, and his knowledge of sophisticated electronics and special weaponry and ordnance. Gary's real job was to get into the offices of top foreign government officials, anywhere on the planet, and to leave bugs that would send audio and video streaming out, using cell phone and Internet technology.

Gary's only serious brush with the law was 4‐years earlier, in 2016, when he and the then 20‐year old Annie were attending a charity ball hosted by inter‐departmental Federal agencies and local police. Out of nowhere, a brash young (and very drunk) black cop from Blaine, Officer Jimmy Whatcom, had come on to Gary, while he was filling Annie's cup at the punch bowl.

The black cop was mumbling racial slurs, about the "tiny‐dicked old man", and his "slick slant little girl ho". Technically, Gary made "first contact", by placing his hand on the black cop's shoulder, with the intention of giving a few words of advice. Ultimately, very few words were exchanged, and before fellow officers could pull them apart, Gary had broken Jimmy Whatcom's neck, leaving the black cop on a respirator for life ‐ at the taxpayer's expense.

Page 11 of 121 It was only Gary's real standing as a secret agent that saved him, when a few well‐ placed calls from higher‐ups put the entire Blaine incident to rest.

Gary's past weighed heavily upon him as he and Annie approached the White House for their Sunday meeting. Gary just couldn't quite imagine what was about to happen, but his sixth sense told him that it would be "something big", and his intuition also told him that small fish are always eaten, or otherwise used, by big fish.

Trump prepared his staff, telling them that the meeting would be brief, and asked that the First Lady make simple small talk with Annie, and perhaps sit with her in an ante room, while President Trump and Gary Phelps talked privately.

Without realizing the possible unintended downstream ramifications, the results of that Sunday afternoon meeting would reshape our entire world.

Chapter Four ‐ Final Orders

President Trump had met Agent Gary Phelps only twice before, under very secretive circumstances. They genuinely liked each other, and it wasn't every DHS/CIA agent who received twice yearly, birthday and Christmas, formal greeting cards from the President.

Gary was ushered into the oval office that Sunday afternoon by a Navy Steward who was cleaning up after a late working breakfast that the President had with staffers. Trump began, by offering Gary a drink, and then he got right into it:

"Gary, you know, this country is about to go through some changes… maybe bad changes ‐ that we aren't ready for ‐ and that won't be good for America".

Gary politely nodded, having no idea where this was going.

"Gary", said President Trump, "it's people like you, who are "watcher"', who gather information, it's people like you who can ultimately save this country, if that information is used correctly."

Trump continued, "I want you to keep an eye on this fucking Biden and Harris trash, I want to know what they do, and who they talk to. At the very least, I want to know everything that happens in this oval office for the next 4‐years, or for however long we are saddled with this travesty".

Gary wasn't normally a drinker, but he took a long pull on his whisky glass at that

Page 12 of 121 point. President Trump continued, "Gary, do you know what I am saying"? "Mister President", replied Gary, "are you asking me… more importantly, are you ordering me, telling me ‐ and authorizing me ‐ to spy on the Biden‐Harris presidency"?

President Trump hated the sound of it, "President Biden", or worse yet, "President Harris". Trump spoke aloud. "Gary, do you honestly believe that either that inept demented old man, or that doofus whore, can actually be a 'real' President"?, asked Trump.

Gary, not at all impaired by only half a glass of Wild Turkey, attempted to take over at this point. "Mr. President, even if you give me your authorization, it would be illegal, it in fact would be treason."

"Gary", Trump waxed philosophically, "we're an unfortunately mixed country, where over 40‐million Afro‐Americans are the foot soldiers of the extreme left‐wingers. We've got to get the "G2" as you intelligence guys say, we've got to know what they're doing, before they destroy the real America".

"Niggers aren't what they used to be. When I was growing up, we had "good niggers", they worked hard, they did what they were told, and they never messed with drugs." Trump continued, "it's the bad niggers ‐ and the tolerant whites ‐ who have ruined everything for both races."

"Take Harris for example, she's a bad nigger, she has tried everything, she still uses drugs, everyday, and that coon likes the euphoria and the energy of cocaine. You know, cocaine is an especially dangerous drug, because it can make niggers think that they are something that they are not. I am here to tell you, the Biden‐Harris regime is going to ruin America, ruin race relations in America, turn it all into socialism, embolden our enemies, and piss off our friends, and I'm not having it." Trump slammed his water glass down with a loud "thunk", as if to finalize and strengthen his message.

"I thought all black people were on Cocaine, Mr. President"? Gary quipped, adding a little mutual laughter to soften a tense moment.

"Do you know", asked Trump, "the Southern author, and closet nigger‐lover, William Faulkner? He said it best in his 1931 novel ‐ "That Evening Sun Go Down" ‐ there's a line in that novel where Faulkner points out that "a nigger full of cocaine wasn't a nigger any longer", you know that"?, asked Trump.

"Uhm, no, Mr. President… you know I didn't do too good in school." Gary spoke the words with a pseudo‐black accent, giving both men another chuckle, and a brief respite from the tension.

Page 13 of 121

Trump laughed aloud and continued, "No, back in Faulkner's time, a nigger was a nigger, and they had their place. We've let all of that go to Hell since 1964."

President Trump became more serious ‐ "Gary, I've written secret orders addressed only to you... and I've referenced the sections of the Continuation of Government Act, which in my opinion, give me the authority, here and now, on my watch, to give you orders which extend beyond my term in office." Trump cleared his throat, on a high note, to add emphasis.. "Gary, will you accept this assignment"?

"Mister President", replied Gary, "you know this is very difficult for me. I mean, in the Agency, there is a chain of command, and"

Trump cut him off, "Gary, it's all taken care of. I've fixed things in a very clever sort of way. Since you are the best in your field, and since high‐tech spying is such a concern these days, I've taken the liberty of having you re‐assigned, starting tomorrow, you will be head of a new liaison unit that is positioned between the NSA and the Secret Service. It will be your official job to make certain that Biden‐Harris is not the victim of electronic eavesdropping by an enemy."

"In addition", added Trump, "there's instructions attached to these confidential papers on where to find your new safe deposit box, and I can assure you, it is plenty full. Also, I've bumped you up several notches on the GS scale, your salary will nearly double, and if you want to take annual paid vacations to Ho Chi Minh City and "rescue" little 12‐ year old Vietnamese girls, well, that's up to you.", added the President, with a lurid sneer.

Gary Phelps turned bright red with that joke, and looked down for a moment, and then stood and smiled, extending his hand to President Trump, "Sir, the fox is in the henhouse".

Chapter Five ‐ Moving Day

Out with the old, and in with the new. The Biden‐Harris staff and Trump's staff worked together, preparing for the transition. Some things, to which a President and Commander in Chief has access, are so top secret, that they must wait until the new president is sworn in ‐ especially so in the case of Biden‐Harris.

To say that the traditional members of the military, and CIA, and FBI were "a little reluctant" to give sensitive security briefings to leftwing Progressive‐Communists, and to give them unfettered access to state secrets is an understatement. There were

Page 14 of 121 more than a few mid‐level resignations and re‐assignments, about which the general public would never hear.

Most of what a President does is well‐orchestrated, and carefully controlled by his staff. The President really makes very few detailed decisions. One exception afforded Biden‐Harris was the opportunity to redecorate the oval office. This noble gesture led to more than a few inside jokes from staff asking about Kamala Harris, and her possible taste in leopard skin carpets, watermelon service trays, and were they to order busts and portraits of Lyndon Baines Johnson and Martin Luther King?

There was, in fact, so much artwork, rugs, carpets, drapes, tapestries, and furniture available and ear‐marked for the White House, that much of it was stored offsite in well‐guarded climate‐controlled government warehouses. It was no simple matter to add to the collection, or to re‐certify the safety of an item, and then move it to the White House.

The Biden‐Harris "co‐presidency" saw itself as no others saw them, perhaps with exception of a few psychiatrists. One FBI criminal profiler would later write that, "In addition to Kamala's drug and alcohol dependency, Joe Biden was a pedophile, and he suffered from both Narcissistic Personality Disorder and Alzheimer's Disease."

Predictably, Joe Biden wanted Kennedy portraits, Kennedy busts, and photos of "important black people" placed in the Oval Office, and so he would get them. There were quite a few pieces to choose from, and the Secret Service noted that an additional protocol item had been added to the already exhaustive checklist, consisting of a bug‐sweep and re‐certification, to be performed in the warehouse, by a new agent holding a new position, Mr. Gary Phelps.

Gary had spent the first two weeks of February, 2021 intensely preparing for this moment, and he had to do it right. It was quite a feat to procure two of the newest "nano‐bugs" from the CIA's sub‐contract sources, and get them in the black, without any record of their procurement or use being entered in the CIA's main database.

These ultra‐miniaturized bugs were of course nothing more than cameras and microphones and batteries and solar chargers and thermal transducers and encryption circuits and antennae..

Sure, that's all they were. Except that if you tried to duplicate what they could do, using the best of the best technology that is commercially available, you would end up with a box the size of three Hershey bars, which ain't exactly concealable.

The entire main circuit board took up no more space than the head of a pin. The

Page 15 of 121 camera lens was smaller than a flea's eye. The combination photovoltaic cell and thermal transducer, which could convert either ambient light or warmth from the air to electricity, looked like a stray rodent hair. The whole damn thing was about half the diameter of a penny, and about the same thickness, with what looked like wisps of stray hairs sticking out in all directions.

Built from primarily high‐tech polymer materials and conductive ceramics, the bug's metallic signature, when swept by even the most sophisticated bug detectors was almost zero. Adding to that was the defense circuit. In what amounted to an "EMP cloak", detector emissions were absorbed, converted to energy, stored in the micro‐ capacitor/battery array, and not reflected.

The real challenge was to transmit a continuous stream of real‐time data, video and sound, to the local cell‐phone grid, and then upload that signal to the Internet. When it comes to hitching a ride, on other carrier signals, the White House is a target rich environment. Gary had access to information that no one else knew about, including the exact location and transmitting frequencies of an array of hard‐wired, always transmitting, "monitor beacons", set into the ceiling above the oval office, and also set into the walls of the office. By design, these beacons were always on, night and day, transmitting their measurements of ambient temperature and sound and motion and proximity.

At any given time, the Secret Service computer was continually recording heat and sound and motion, which could be used by custom programmable warning or alert software. Gary used the motion detector network to his advantage, programming a reciprocal "bug‐chatter" system that would make use of the motion detectors. In the absence of bright light, motion, or thermal changes, the bugs would not transmit, but when the Secret Service monitor beacons began transmitting anything more than a flat‐line, then and only then would the bugs turn on, and so energy would be conserved, and not much would be missed.

The bug camera lens had only minor automated electronic pan and zoom capability, producing medium resolution "jerky" frame to frame images like a web cam. Gary programmed the bug circuitry to follow the signals from the Oval Office embedded motion detectors and heat sensors and sound sensors, creating an automated (if rudimentary) follow and track system.

So, by mid‐February 2021, a portrait of JFK, with a bug embedded in the painting's canvas behind Kennedy's right eye, and a bust of Kennedy, (with a bug peering out from the edge of the cushioning base felt) were ready for delivery to the White House. Both transmitters would be online from February 2021 onwards, uploading to Gary's private data repository on the Internet.

Access to that Internet data repository was given to a trusted legal and research team at the Heritage Foundation. In theory, only a select few should be able to see what Donald Trump had requested. However, it's the information age, and data has a way of migrating…

Chapter Six ‐ Pawn takes King

Time moved inexorably from February 2021 forward. The Biden‐Harris crimes mounted, and Gary Phelps often joked to himself that surely there should be a tearstain below JFK's right eye by now. Some of the Secret Service agents, who of course didn't know about the bugs, also used the Kennedy portrait as a moral reference point. The expression "Kennedy Cried" was a frequent shorthand verbal message from one agent to another, meaning that they had just witnessed another desecration of the oval office.

Kennedy saw it all, and his right eye recorded and uploaded it all… New plans for creating systemic Voter Fraud, Mob Ties, Insider Trading, Unconstitutional rules given to the BATF, Illegal rules given to ICE, Inappropriate use of the Patriot Act, FISA used against Americans, Federal Police Illegal Raids, Illegal Search and Seizures, Expansion of No‐Knock Warrants, Bail Out Fraud, Criminal Intimidation of White Police Officers, Taxpayer‐Funded Enviro‐Scams, Black Panther Voter Intimidation, Manipulation of Journalists and the Media, Withholding Evidence in Investigations, Government Fraud, The Planned Race War, Firearms Confiscations, TSA Searches, Bribery, Aiding Illegal Aliens, IRS Crimes, NSA Spying, Unauthorized Wire Taps, GSA Crimes, Falsifying Labor and Employment Data, Embedding "NKVD‐Like" Spies Within the Military, etc., etc… Every Biden‐Harris crime and lie was laid bare in the oval office, and the guys at the Heritage Foundation pored over much of it with utter amazement, not knowing quite what to do with it.

Only occasionally did Gary personally review the uploaded audio and video, more out of curiosity than anything else. He knew that the Heritage Foundation's attorneys were reviewing the data, as Trump had indicated that they would, but the urge to occasionally peek into the recordings was still strong. Who wouldn't want to be the fly on the wall, and hear the private discussions of the President of the United States, arguably the most powerful person on the planet? It only took two weekends at his old hunting lodge in upper Wisconsin, downloading small portions over an anonymous satellite connection.

Agent Phelps saw and heard more than he could stomach. Kamala Harris surely

Page 17 of 121 consumed enough whiskey, tobacco, marijuana, cocaine, and all manner of pills to "float a battleship", to use an old Navy expression. Also, there were the nurses constantly in attendance to Joe Biden. Uppers to wake him up, downers to put him asleep, and nootropics like Modafinil to connect his last two remaining neurons before any public speaking engagement. If real Americans only knew how close they were to a Harris Presidency.

Then, there was the racism. Gary certainly wasn't prepared for that. In his private moments with his wife ("Doctor Jill"), and with Merrick Garland, Biden and Harris both referred to Mexican illegal immigrants as "Pedro", as in ".we gotta get Pedro on the program and voting, ya know"? Caucasians were "crackers" and "honkeys", and Asians were "slants", and Jews were "kikes".

Gary thought he had heard it all, until he witnessed what seemed like a semi‐official planning meeting, which included Kamala Harris, Joe Biden, and Merrick Garland. In very matter‐of‐fact ways, they were discussing how to "take control and keep it", and how to "disarm white folks", and how to create a race war where "the brothers would take on whitey".

Finally, Gary never logged on again after he heard Biden, and Merrick Garland talking about the FEMA camps. They were discussing a NASA report, which predicted an 11‐ year solar flare maximum during the December, 2021 to March, 2022 time frame, with a predicted attendant magnetic field or pole‐reversal of the sun itself. There was an estimated low‐risk, but a possibility, that a portion of America's power grid would be blown out, and that would create an opportunity to "shelter and re‐train" the survivors, as Merrick Garland put it.

That was enough for Gary, no more viewing the uploads…

Gary had never considered himself a "racist", but he was certainly becoming a "realist", and he often wondered ‐ for real Christians who understand the price of the cross, who understand the quote: "and Jesus wept" as it is written in John 11:35, would those same Christians understand how surely Kennedy's portrait must be weeping, at the sight of leftwing Communists desecrating the oval office?

More than a few old hands in the Agency were much more concerned with the practical rather than with the religious or the cultural or the political or the philosophical ‐ they didn't care if Biden or Harris were crooks ‐ all politicians are crooks ‐ what worried them was the "weak face".

Analysts and policy wonks in the CIA worried intensely about the weak aging face that represented America to the world. Those same analysts worried mostly about

Page 18 of 121 Russia. Putin didn't like Biden or Harris, and Joe Biden was way over his head when dealing with real men and real leaders like Putin.

Then, there was Edward Snowden and the NSA. During the May through August‐ 2013 development of the Snowden and NSA whistle blowing revelations, former President Obama showed just how powerless he was, and Putin ultimately scooped‐ up the prize by giving sanctuary to Edward Snowden and providing an outlet for his NSA secrets.

Snowden then became a pawn between the super‐powers, and there was even talk of an offer to trade Viktor Bout, the Russian arms dealer who had been illegally captured in a DEA sting operation in Bangkok in 2008. Former President Obama and Putin danced around the opportunity to give Viktor Bout back to Russia in return for Snowden. The deal never materialized, and Russian agents eventually discovered that Snowden was more valuable than the "face‐saving" and the political value of fervent nationalistic pride and patriotism associated with Viktor Bout.

Edward Joseph Snowden proved to be more valuable than either of the super‐powers could have imagined. Snowden had a special little skill, of which his NSA trainers at Booz‐Allen‐Hamilton were unaware. Edward had the uncanny ability to remember, and recall at will, almost any number or password or code sequence. If Edward had ever typed a key, password, code, or login cipher, he could recall it. It was that simple. Of course, most of the NSA's passwords changed daily, but habits didn't change, patterns were repeated, and that is what the Russian analysts quickly discovered.

For example, Edward Snowden had worked with one particular NSA programmer, who always designed in a back door access to the NSA databases. The back door was simply accessed by an online account login, which was always named as the first name of the programmer's son. The password to that account seemed to change approximately once per week, but it was always 28‐characters, and it was always 14‐ characters repeated twice, and the 14‐characters were always a combination of two 7‐character subsets, which changed frequently, but were easily guessed from the programmer's birthdate, his child's birth date, and his Social Security number.

This was too easy. The Russian hackers were having a field day. They had gained access to the NSA's main data storage computers. The NSA had everything on everybody. Russia had nothing like this, but thanks to Snowden, if America knew it, Russia would soon know it.

One of many things that simply amazed the Russians was the NSA mainframe storage capacity, and the 18 acre underground computer facility at Fort Meade, and the new NSA‐Utah Data Center, code‐named "Bumblehive", and the potentially even

Page 19 of 121 larger, and continually growing, sub‐contracted offsite server farms.

From the Internet alone, the NSA's automated programs were "touching" millions of terabytes everyday in Internet traffic, and actively collecting, logging, and analyzing approximately 17.43 terabytes per day. That was just from the Internet open page sources... Then there is telephone traffic, VoIP packets, Skype, all social media, all searches, all banking telex records, the SWIFT and IBAN systems, all mobile phone traffic, and all SMS text messages.

It was huge, and the key to understanding and navigating the storage system evaded the Russians, until they questioned Snowden again, and like a bewildered boy‐genius trying to explain a Rubik's cube to his grandfather, Edward Snowden simply asked, "have you found the search field, with the color bars and page numbering and code‐ value systems and the link systems"?

The NSA computer system automatically assigned "importance values" to suspicious data, and furthermore, all identifiable data was automatically cross‐referenced, and links to the same raw data then appeared simultaneously in multiple catalog files.

Once the Russian agents discovered how to use the NSA's internal search engine, they could type in anything sensitive, and in many cases, they found raw data, which even the NSA's sub‐contractors had not yet analyzed. At that point, the Russian hacking operation changed, and only a few top men with the highest security clearances in the FSB and SVR began peering into the NSA's back door.

Firstly, of course the Russians wanted to know, "are they watching us, and what do they know"? Secondly, it occurred to the Russians that the NSA might be intentionally or even accidentally recording US military or US government transmissions.

The first chestnut fell into the fire when they typed in variations of "Putin", and "Putin's Hunting Lodge", and "Putin Fishing", and "Putin's Mistress". That's when the Russians finally understood one of Snowden's references to the color codes and linked data.

The NSA had designed‐in intentionally elusive viewing arrangements. The NSA database was designed to be fully interactive only with touch screen monitors, a feature which an older FSB agent discovered quite by accident when he wiped dust from his new computer screen.

Certain maps were interactive, and an entire team of agents was assigned to examining why the NSA had "highlight circles" on maps near where Putin often

Page 20 of 121 hunted, fished, or rode horseback. Touching a circle on a touch‐screen monitor, while simultaneously dragging the mouse cursor across through the circle, would reveal layers of hidden links.

For each one of Putin's country retreats, there were layers of interactive elements on the NSA online map, which always included a red circle, and a nearby green circle. When expanded and brought into large scale terrain view, the red circle always corresponded to the active or outdoor area of the retreat, and the green circle was invariably about 2‐kilometers away, in an unimpeded and elevated line‐of‐sight position.

Line of sight, pondered one of the agents, and he suddenly exclaimed aloud, "sniper's nest"! More agents were quickly assigned to evaluate the maps, and they were able to find and decode linked data, which clearly showed the purpose of the maps. Once the linked data was decoded, it became apparent that these were links to cataloged CIA data, showing assassination plan contingencies.

An older SVR agent was given the assignment of handing off and personally explaining this particular report to Putin. President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, who himself had every trait of a narcissistic psychopath, only slightly smiled upon hearing the report, and thought to himself, "I am too important, I am Russia's best hope, no American can kill me."

The second nut was roasted when the Russian hackers typed in "1600 Pennsylvania Avenue", and they soon realized that the NSA both pinpointed the source, and recorded the signal, and automatically decoded the data, and saved the information, from every transmission of any kind leaving the White House.

More revelations soon emerged, and of course the biggest prize came when the Russian agents learned how to peer through the right eye of John Kennedy's oval office portrait. They were watching Biden and Harris, in almost real time, (viewing raw data from Gary Phelp's bugs, only a few minutes old) This simply astounded the Russians. Further, the entire bug audio and video data was untouched ‐ still in the NSA's raw data files ‐ not yet analyzed. It was entirely possible that the NSA did not even know that this continual data stream was in its possession.

The FSB agents were put on shift, analyzing and saving the continual data stream that flowed from the Oval Office to the NSA servers, then to the SVR's proxy servers in Virginia, and then to Moscow. Moscow is 9 hours ahead of Washington, DC, and by the time key summaries were written and condensed, Putin was generally about 12 to 24 hours behind Joe and Kamala's actions, which were carefully hand‐delivered to Putin every day in what the FSB agents jokingly called the "Бабуин отчет" ("baboon

Page 21 of 121 report")

From these daily reports, Putin would actually gain a little political respect for Biden and Harris, when it became clear that Biden had lied ‐ and done so successfully ‐ about virtually everything of importance, that would qualify him to Americans as POTUS and CIC. Of highest concern (to Americans) Joe Biden and Kamala Harris had lied about policies, and about their true beliefs and their plans for America.

Putin was fully aware that the best politicians (or, at least the most successful) are shameless liars. However, while it is one thing for Biden and Harris to hoodwink the American voter, it is quite another thing for the "American Machine" to use Biden's lies and abuse of power on the world stage, and that concerned Putin.

These revelations, coming as "gifts" from the NSA and Edward Snowden, quickly and inevitably began shaping Russia's daily policies and its reactions to the U.S.A.

Putin finally called a secret meeting, and asked for modern contingency plans to be developed to "cut off the head of the snake", a fairly literal euphemism for launching a decapitating first strike against the American government. Given the realization and the implications of pre‐ positioned sniper's nests at Putin's country retreats, the Russian president felt well within his rights to make his own contingency plans for Biden and Harris.

Chapter Seven ‐ Illegal Orders

SVR agent Sasha Borisovich Melikov was on the 7:00am to 3:00pm day shift assigned to watch Biden and Harris in real time, an assignment that some of the Russian agents referred to as the "baboon cage detail". At 2‐hours into his shift, at 9:00am Moscow time, not much should be happening in the Oval Office at what would be 12:00 midnight Washington time.

Relatively quiet or not, it was still Sasha's job to watch the computer monitor, and so he did. Born the first son to Boris Melikov, an old Soviet‐era KGB agent, Sasha was lucky to have had his father's influence, and to have been in line for a good job, as the old Soviet Union became the Russian Federation.

The video and sound quality were not perfect, and what happened next created considerable confusion, and caused Sasha to literally push the "panic" button, calling for other day shift duty agents, who should witness what he was seeing. Sasha rang up the shift duty analyst station, to make certain that multiple computer stations were

Page 22 of 121 recording and analyzing the incoming video and audio signals.

A 12:00 mid‐night meeting in the Oval Office was fairly rare, but what really caught Sasha's attention were military officers wearing high‐ranking insignias ‐ and then came a progression including Joe Biden, who was standing ‐ and then Kamala Harris, who was seated behind the President's desk ‐ and then a lower ranking Navy officer, dressed mostly in white.

The white‐clad junior officer placed a large black case, like a small suitcase on the Resolute desk, and stood by while Vice President Kamala Harris sat behind the desk. More officers came and went, crossing in front of the camera's field of view, between the Kennedy portrait and Biden and Harris. These images never were perfect, but it looked like Harris reached into the inside lapel pocket of her coat, and withdrew a small card. One of the younger SVR agents, watching the scene unfold, suddenly shouted, "that's the so‐called "football", and Harris has a code card in her hand"!

Sasha was unsure, and he tried to calm the younger agents, but it was too late, and one of the on‐duty military liaison officers called in a "Launch‐on‐Warning" advisory, which could potentially bring the entire Russian strategic rocket, bomber, and ballistic missile submarine forces to full‐alert.

As the other SVR agents scurried about, Sasha maintained his composure at his post; he clamped his headphones on tightly over both ears, and continually adjusted the color and brightness of his monitor, trying to fully understand what was happening half a world away.

Then, Kamala Harris reached into the suitcase, retrieved a small glass vial, opened it, and made a line of white powder across the top of the desk. She shaped the white line with the card that she held. It was drugs. It was just Harris using some cocaine before an unusual midnight briefing. The suitcase was a medicine box, it was not the nuclear launch code "football".

Sasha had a good laugh at the expense of his more excitable younger associates, and a "stand‐ down" was quickly issued to Russian military officers who had been given emergency alerts only moments before.

Every one of the SVR agents continued watching, as Joe Biden moved to the edge of the camera's field of view, still standing. Kamala Harris moved from the desk, and seated herself in a plain chair, surrounded by high‐ranking officers, some seated on a sofa, and some standing. Not every attendee was visible, but all of their voices could be clearly heard.

Page 23 of 121 A steward appeared, and offered coffee to the men in uniform, and a whiskey snifter and shot glass was given to Vice President Harris, apparently for only her personal consumption.

Harris: (sniffing and rubbing her nose) "Ah, so, gentlemen, what crisis brings you to the White House at this late hour"?

President Biden and Vice President Harris were surrounded by America's top brass, including the CIA Director, and three of the seven Joint Chiefs. This was "big", whatever it was, it must be very big for these 4 men to gather, in uniform, with their aides, to personally brief the President in "his home" at this late hour.

Director Burns: "Mister President, Madam Vice President, thank you for seeing us, and I will come to the point, it looks as if almost every major intel and counter‐intel operation that we have running against the Russians have blown up on us, and it has all happened in the space of a few days. The damage is extreme. Almost every agent, contractor, or sub‐contract asset that we have within the Russian Federation is either missing, or has been captured. We've never before seen anything like this."

Harris: (still pinching her nose and making sniffling sounds) "Well, I guess y'all could launch a few drones against the Kremlin."

That remark by the bleary‐eyed and obviously drunken and coked‐up Vice President did not produce the laughter that Kamala Harris hoped for, not even a quiet cough. The tension hung in the air like smoke from an Afghan hookah.

Admiral Gilday: "Madam Vice President, it's not only on the ground. Every year, we conduct at least one "real‐penetration" exercise, where we actually go up a Russian river. Two‐days ago, we almost lost the USS Virginia, SSN‐774, an attack submarine. We made the usual polar route approach, going in from the Kara Sea, and then into the entrance of the Ob River. They almost got us with depth charges. We've been doing this every year since the 1960's, just to stay sharp, and to prove that we can do it. The Russian Navy isn't what it used to be ‐ the Russians obviously had advance knowledge of our planned penetration point and knew our exact timing, they had to know, and there is no other explanation."

The Vice President was on her second Johnny Walker, and she downed it quickly.

Harris: "Well, ah, maybe we shouldn't, uh, I mean, I guess we should." her voice trailed off, as she groped for words, giving up only that trademark Kamala smiley‐faced giggling expression.

Page 24 of 121 Director Burns: "Madame Vice President, the Russians probably know enough to connect the dots, and see that we have active plans ‐ and "had" agents on the ground for every kind of assignment, from capturing or killing Edward Snowden, to staging an "accidental" Russian nuclear incident, to taking out Putin, and on and on."

Harris: (becoming briefly alert) "Well, I, uh, never really fully authorized any of those things, uh, and if you're saying that I, uh." Again, Kamala's voice trailed off, she lost her stream of thought, and there was only a long silent pause.

Director Burns: "Madam Vice President, we aren't here to assign blame. You have always signed every secret order and authorization that we have ever placed in front of you, and likewise, we have always followed your orders on some of these unusual CIA schemes, and it is of course up to the CIA and the military to maintain security."

Admiral Gilday: "Well, not to cast too much gloom and doom, but as you gentlemen know, we are only about 72‐hours away from pulling off perhaps the most audacious Seal Team insertion ever conducted. It's very high risk, but we are still confident that we can take out Sergei Trunov and his suitcase bomb workshop near Kaliningrad."

Harris: "Well, you damn sure better, we've got to make a good show of it, as if we are trying to stop the Russians from selling suitcase nukes to Iran, or Syria, or North Korea or whoever, and. I expect you, and I uh I." Kamala's voice again trailed off, and she simply dropped all pretence of trying to make sense, as he poured himself a third scotch.

Director Burns: "Well, Madam Vice President, and with deference to you, Admiral Gilday, if we get caught at this, before the evidence is planted, or if they catch us planting the device, or if they capture our team ‐ we won't even get away with calling it a military operation. The Seals and my contractors will be in either plain clothes, or in Russian police uniforms. They can be shot as spies. This whole damned thing is illegal."

Admiral Gilday: "Whoa, guys, wait a minute. What did you just say"? Gilday was turning red in the face, and looked at a loss for words. "Are you saying that this is all a hoax, a staged sting operation"? He continued, "I read the "official" CIA reports, I've followed the President's orders ‐ what exactly did your CIA "spooks" bring onto my boat"?

Director Burns: "Well, that's on a need to know basis, and unless the President wishes to discuss."

Admiral Gilday: (cutting of Burns, and shaking his clenched fist at both Kamala Harris and the CIA Director) "Are you fucking politico cocksuckers shitting me"? Gilday was

Page 25 of 121 fairly ranting now, and he continued, "Are you guys just itching to start a nuclear war"? "Aren't there enough real crimes that we can catch the Russians committing"? "Who thought up this wacko scheme"?

Harris: "Admiral Gilday, sir, you are way out of line." "We are simply responding to the pressing "moral" issues. It's like when the Israelis blew‐up that Iranian airliner with the five Russian nuclear scientists on board. Aren't we within our rights to do whatever we want, even if it means staging a fake crime, in order to prevent future real crimes"? Harris was seemingly more lucid, and she was really in her element when it came to creating lies or creating a fake or staged "false flag" incident.

General Brown: "If I may interject, is this why the Air Force has been asked to stand by in Germany"? "Are we the "Plan B" in all of this"? "Your agents, Director Burns, loaded a special device, under verified Presidential orders, onto a B‐2 stealth bomber. I'm just guessing here, and connecting the dots myself, but is this an identical device, identical to the fake suitcase bomb that is to be "found" in Kaliningrad? As a back‐up, are we supposed to air drop that device onto Kaliningrad from a B‐2"? "That B‐2 is on the ground in Germany and fueled‐up and on snap count as we speak." General Brown was wide‐eyed, "Jesus Christ, is my B‐2 your back‐up plan"?

Harris: (Cutting off Brown, and laughing..) "Gentlemen, let's not have a coup or a rebellion or something, OK"?

General Brown: "So, have I guessed correctly"? "In the event that you elect to flush an, uhm, failed mission, and, uh, eradicate all evidence on the ground, there would damn sure be no witnesses if we air dropped an identical device onto Kaliningrad. I guess set for ground burst ‐ and it would appear as if Uncle Sergei had an "accident" at this imaginary suitcase bomb workshop in Kaliningrad, and"

Harris: (Again cutting off Brown, and laughing..) "and we get the same results." Kamala Harris winked at CIA Director Burns indicating approval of General Brown's remarks. The Vice President continued, "Boys, y'all know that this is where we shine. This is no different than any other "sting" or entrapment operation, where we create evidence, or plant evidence, or we just make somebody look guilty even when they ain't. The DHS, and FBI, and ICE, and DEA, why y'all know they do this every day.. are you tellin' me that our best soldiers can't do the same thing"?

Director Burns: "Madam Vice President, General Milley, General Brown, I of course respect the Administration's objectives, and I have no doubt as to the capability of our military, but in light of the current events in Russia, I'm going on record calling this intrusion into Russia both illegal and dangerous. I know that it's already approved and in motion, but there are other ways to start wars with Russia's proxies in Iran and

Page 26 of 121 Syria, and to also end up with international nuclear disarmament after we destroy any non‐cooperators in the eight GCC states."

Only General Milley remained silent, and he politely nodded his head during the entire meeting. Milley's thoughts were on his personal "Plan B", and the secret meetings that his old friend, Colonel Killebrew, had been having directly with former President Donald Trump, as well as with aides and emissaries of other influential Washington insiders. There were other possible out comes, perhaps much more positive over the long run, and so Milley quietly mused, wondering how to turn this all around, to his advantage and to America's advantage.

Kamala Harris stood, and abruptly ended the meeting, by saying simply, "Good job gentlemen, stay the course, and get me some results."

The American Generals slowly walked away from the Oval Office, feeling unsure of what was to follow, while half a world away, President Putin's military and intelligence agencies were springing to life as never before.

Other eyes would also secretly view the records of this meeting, including David Addington, an attorney, as well as a few selected analysts and scholars from the Heritage Foundation.

They pondered their options during the next day, following the Oval Office midnight meeting, and they finally decided upon one simple act: By courier, David Addington sent a personal hand‐written ten‐page letter to General Milley, warning him, and simply starting with "there is a rumor afoot, and if it is true that Biden and Harris are trying to stage a mock raid of a non‐existent illegal nuclear weapons lab in Russia, and if anything goes wrong, the Joint Chiefs will surely be criminally charged for accepting illegal orders, and for conducting an illegal attack."

The burning issues for the Heritage Foundation were secrecy and unintended "fallout". Since February 2021, selected young analysts from the Heritage Foundation had manned their own "monkey cage" watch, mostly in real time, with most of the data kept and recorded, but certainly with no access to associated NSA data.

At regular intervals over those years, Addington, and others had secretly approached trusted high ranking military officers, and simply asked, "we have heard a rumor of this or that Biden‐Harris crime. Or, we know of a meeting where Kamala Harris, and Joe Biden, and Merrick Garland agreed to plan illegal acts against Americans, when will the military finally act"?

Invariably, this led to discussions between officers, which led to persistent rumors of

Page 27 of 121 a military coup, which led to the removal of over 197 flag rank Generals and Admirals before the end of 2021. Kamala Harris had her own version of the old Soviet NKVD, with secret political commissars hidden within the military. Without some trusted external organization, there simply wasn't much that America's armed forces could do to either control or remove President Biden and Vice President Harris.

The burden of these events would soon be shouldered by the Heritage Foundation, General Milley, Colonel Killebrew, and their new friends, as they pondered the choices for their "Plan B".

Chapter Eight ‐ Power Brokers

The secret talks had gone on for months. It all started when there was a chance meeting between Colonel (USA ret) Robert (“Bob”) Killebrew and one of former President Donald Trump’s attorneys, Nick Creutzfeldt.

Bob Killebrew was a no‐nonsense straight shooter, a retired U.S. Army Colonel who brought in nice extra salaries for himself from military consulting, writing OPLANs and strategy documents, and contributing to think‐tank position papers.

Sometimes, the vapors of human existence just naturally coalesce into a meaningful continuum, the natural order of things prevails, and this chance association, initially without form or purpose, led to so much more. After initial invitations, offers of introductions, and preliminary discussions, the shadowy New York Jewish attorney and power broker, Nicholas Creutzfeldt, finally succeeded in introducing Donald Trump to Bob Killebrew, and the rest would unfold like collard greens boiling in a stew pot.

Upon their first meeting, Bob and Donald naturally took to each other. They were supposed to just chat over coffee, with each man giving up only a one‐hour slice of his busy day to the other equally busy man. Their first meeting went on for hours. There, in a private ante room of the Jean Georges restaurant, in Trump Hotel, Central Park, New York City, the two men drew up plans for creating nothing less than the “New American Government”, with details of how it should function. More than a few table napkins were sketched upon. It was like one of those “what‐if” 8th grade civics class round table discussions, but unlike naïve kids learning the Constitution, these were two very serious men with a purpose. Bob had connections and knew the military, and Donald had money, power, influence, and political savvy.

In their very first meeting, Bob and Donald agreed on two key things: Firstly, they

Page 28 of 121 must quietly recruit one more "popular" politician or military leader, one who would be loyal to former President Trump; Secondly, they agreed that they must "assume" that they were always being watched, and they must make appointments through intermediaries, and never make direct calls, and never put anything in writing in either Email or SMS text messages.

Then, it was down to selecting an “attractive sidekick”, who would hold de jure the office of the New Republic’s Vice President, while de facto having very little real power, and who would be uncompromisingly loyal to Trump, and who would accept guidance from behind the scenes by a sort of “privy council”, that would include men like Creutzfeldt, Col. Killebrew, and General Milley. It was agreed between Bob Killebrew and Donald Trump that they would try to recruit General David Petraeus. Politics is always the art of compromise, and this would be the ultimate compromise.

General David Howell Petraeus, had been shamed and retired by the Obama administration. Petraeus was one of the last in the big purge of flag rank generals and admirals. In the course of his first five years in office, President Obama purged over 200 senior military officers, and many of the “retired” officers report being harassed at their new civilian jobs if they openly criticized the President’s policies. It would not be easy to approach General Petraeus, and only Colonel Bob Killebrew, acting directly, and acting alone, could get to him.

So, that was the hit parade, the big line‐up. Nick Creutzfeldt brought Colonel Bob Killebrew and Donald Trump together. Then, Killebrew and Trump tapped David Petraeus for the sidekick in the Trump team. In the fullness of time, Colonel Killebrew and David Petraeus would recruit the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Mark A. Milley.

Creutzfeldt, Killebrew, Trump, Petraeus, and Milley would ultimately form and guide a much larger “management team”, with the purpose of slowly and secretly assembling the forces necessary to conduct America’s first ever coup d’etat. But, half a world away, circumstances were unfolding that would force their hands, and cause them to act much sooner than planned.

Chapter Nine ‐ The Bear and the Eagle

Putin almost never visited the SVR computer and Internet monitoring facility, but after the morning's sudden "alert" and a just as quick "stand‐down", Putin paced back and forth in his office, and weighed his options, and prepared himself to be counseled by lesser men who would have made good computer hackers and credit card thieves in another life.

Page 29 of 121

Just as Joe Biden surrounded himself with Kennedy memorabilia and portraits, Putin had a not‐so‐hidden reverence and affection for Joseph Stalin. It was of course very much out of fashion for the "new guard" of the Russian Federation to display anything Stalinesque, but Putin had one very large mural in his office, which showed Stalin and his generals in grandiose poses around a war room map.

The painting was based on Stalin's conversations with his Generals at the outbreak of the Great Patriotic War in 1939. The Third Reich's troops, on their invasion into Poland, were led by the revered General Fedor von Bock. Putin knew his war history chapter and verse, and falling into a momentary reverie, and as if speaking directly to Stalin, or perhaps like a good Christian praying before an image of Jesus, Putin asked aloud, "In your time, Hitler had a warrior, General von Bock, and now in my time, Biden and Harris have a sniveling political officer and "yes‐man", the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Milley. Tell me Joe, what should I do"?

Putin already knew the answer. Stalin had General Georgy Konstantinovich Zhukov, and President Vladimir Putin had a few good men of his own. The challenge would be to hold back the warriors until they were needed, and to use cunning and diplomacy as Russia's first line of defense.

Putin would have to do the unexpected in so many ways. If he could just make this work, Vladimir Putin would go down in history with the respect that he deserved, and be recognized as the strongest and wisest commander to ever lead Russia.

It was a short drive to the SVR code‐breaking and observation station, and as Putin arrived, the highest‐ranking intelligence officers were preparing an impromptu presentation. Putin sat, and listened intently, and only asked a few questions, "why didn't General Milley speak" and, finally, "how may I directly contact General Milley, without anyone knowing or recording the call"? There were no good answers, and Putin was both surprised and disappointed that his SVR "political intelligence officers" neither had much intelligence nor understood much about American politics.

Moving to the technical details, it was noted that the US Navy had placed the suitcase nuke on board the newest Virginia‐class attack submarine, the USS Missouri SSN‐ 780. The analyst noted that her namesake, the USS Missouri BB‐63, was the great battleship, upon which World War Two in the Pacific was officially ended, with the signing of the Japanese Instrument of Surrender on her decks, on 02‐September‐ 1945. Such irony, thought Putin, Truman's revered General, Douglas MacArthur, accepted the end of World War Two on the Missouri, and Joe Biden just might start World War Three using a submarine given the same name…

Page 30 of 121

For the details of the suitcase bomb, and for the source of what would surely be America's cover story, the work of the Russian nuclear physicist, Sergei Trunov was explained to Putin. Well past the normal retirement age, and living on his small farm near Kaliningrad, Sergei Trunov had no workshop, although not unlike Teller and Ulam, he needed no physical models. He wrote papers, made sketches, and he produced intricate fission calculations, which almost no one else understood. Sergei Trunov had forever sought another elusive, and more powerful isotope, which could be an alternative to either U‐235 or Pu‐239.

The CIA would attempt to paint a picture of Sergei Trunov as a bomb designer, who after the fall of the Soviet Union, was willing to do anything for money. Of course, nothing could be further from the truth. Sergei Trunov still actively taught nuclear physics at Kaliningrad State Technical University, and he frequently challenged his graduate students to develop their own theories for topics like "increased fission efficiency in thin layer short‐life isotopes", and "increasing the number of decay and fission cycles in reactive tamper/reflector structures".

Naturally, you could think that he was still a bomb designer, but he was first and foremost a theoretical physicist, and a soon‐to‐be retired professor emeritus, and he had not been near a workshop in years.

There were still more questions from Putin in regards to General Milley, but the SVR intel staff had few answers. Putin was convinced that Kamala Harris was too drunk, and drugged, and dangerous to be trusted, and Joe Biden was officially described by the SVR as "demented, crazy and unpredictable", so Putin firmly decided that he must contact and rely upon America's military leadership.

There was an old Communist Party axiom, "to control the group you control the leader; to control the leader, you must understand the leader" Putin decided that he must do a few things directly, his way, and so he thanked the intelligence officers for their dedication, and he excused himself from the SVR briefing, and he then found a secure line to Washington.

It was just becoming daylight in Washington, when Putin's aide rang up the secure line for Ambassador Sergey Ivanovich Kislyak at the Russian Embassy on Wisconsin Avenue. The Russian diplomatic corps phones used the absolute latest encryption, but the aides on each end of the line knew better than to assume that any system was really secure, so they employed some old‐fashioned "book" protocols, which refers to actual bound books, carried into the embassy in diplomatic pouches, and stored in the vault. There were matching sets of "books" in Moscow, and that method allowed for another layer of coded messages.

Page 31 of 121

Moscow Aide: "Putin here for Kislyak"

Washington Aide: (scrambling to awaken Ambassador Kislyak, and get him to the secure line) "Wait, one minute"!

Moscow Aide: "Protocol Sierra‐Sierra, Bravo‐one"

Washington Aide: "Affirmative"! (the aide scrambled to unlock the safe, and withdraw "Bravo‐one" ‐ secret protocol book number one ‐ and passed it over to the numb‐ looking Ambassador Kislyak.)

Kislyak: "Ambassador Kislyak, here"

Putin: "Protocol Sierra‐Sierra, Bravo‐one, Protocol Charlie" Kislyak: "I have it, Mister President."

Putin: "Entry three, number one, read the code number"

Kislyak: "It is 1‐7‐4‐3"

Putin: "Affirmative. Initiate a Charlie Incident to my address"

Kislyak: "Affirmative, Mister President"

Putin clicked off.

In the conversation that had just transpired, Putin had simply instructed Ambassador Kislyak, to accomplish, by any means necessary, the establishment of a secret communication method between the person listed on page 3, line 1, code number "1743", and President Putin. That person was of course none other than the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Mark A. Milley.

It was now up to the Russian agents in America to find a "friend of a friend" or to otherwise get an under‐the‐radar message from Putin to General Milley.

Russia had more agents in America now than the Soviet Union had during the cold war, but this still seemed like an almost impossible task. They had to do it very quickly and quietly, and make certain that General Milley would not refuse the call. Mirroring Ambassador Kislyak's thoughts, an SVR agent back in Moscow actually took it upon his own initiative, and using the NSA back door, he found the search fields and layered circles for General Milley, and looked for contacts, associates, and

Page 32 of 121 meeting calendars.

The only thing unusual on Milley's schedule was a meeting where the General was to make a public appearance ‐ that night, actually ‐ at a "DOD Writers and Analysts Conference", there was a dinner scheduled, and the notes indicated that security was lower than average, and there was a tradition followed by some the writers, especially military historians, of presenting autographed first edition books to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs.

This was one of several options that the Russian agents in Washington would be offered from SVR support back in Moscow, and in many ways, it looked like the best opportunity, since a secure embassy mobile satellite phone could be handed off, perhaps from a writer or historian to Milley.

One candidate on the guest list really stood out to the SVR. He was Frank Browne, a retired college professor, University of Florida, Gainesville, and a former Vietnam‐era Naval Aviation Rescue Swimmer. In his youth, he had really been a man's man, enjoying sailing, fishing, flying, woodworking, and building. In his retirement, in addition to being an accomplished musician, he had become recognized as a military historian and writer, and he frequently picked up the odd DOD contract. Frank had been invited to the awards dinner, to be recognized for his book, "The Technological Edge", which compared Civil War era spies, and Lincoln's use of the telegraph, to modern‐day NSA intelligence gathering. As if that was not an odd enough coincidence, Frank had always voted a straight Democratic ticket, yet he was a fairly normal guy.

Frank once told a close friend, "on the race issue, the only practical difference between a so‐called liberal like me, and a conservative like you, is our choice of words and imagery. When you drive with your family through the black section of town, you tell your family to roll their windows up, lock their doors, and make sure their seat belts are adjusted extra tight. I give my family the exact same warning, only I have to awkwardly refer to that area as the "disadvantaged" part of town, while you can simply say "nigger town". So, on the race issue, that's about our only difference."

Frank was scheduled to land in Washington that afternoon, and there would only be a few hours for the Russian agents from the embassy to program the phone, prep a book with a cutout, box it and gift wrap it, and convince Frank to make the hand‐off.

Room 538 at the mid‐town Hilton was a comfortable room, and just 5‐floors up from the banquet room, where the awards dinner would be held in a few hours. Frank was traveling without his wife, Darlene, and so without the distractions of shopping or sight‐seeing, he simply checked in, showered, shaved, and was just finishing dressing

Page 33 of 121 when there was a knock on the door.

Thinking it was room service, Frank opened the door without first checking the peephole, and was surprised when he was greeted by two large Slavic‐looking men in business suits, who gently stepped into the room while simultaneously introducing themselves as attachés from the Russian Federation embassy. They quietly closed the door behind them, and began their story, telling Frank a very brief and redacted version of the truth, and asking him to hand off a special package to General Milley.

The package revealed that even Russians have a sense of humor. The Russians had purchased a fairly pristine original edition of "Run Silent Run Deep", the 1955 novel by Edward Beach. On the inside, someone had written in neat block printing on the front endpaper, "USS Missouri SSN‐780, bring her home safe". The interior pages were cut out, and a standard embassy‐issue encrypted satellite phone was wedged into the cut out. Laid loosely above the phone was a small sealed envelope, which contained instructions for General Milley, telling him where and when he should receive an inbound call from Putin's aide and translator.

It took some convincing ‐ God, Country, Duty, World Peace ‐ one of the Russians disassembled and then reassembled the satellite phone, finally proving to Frank's satisfaction that the phone posed no danger.

Frank was as nervous as the proverbial whore in church, but he took the assignment, and rehearsed his lines and his hand‐off style. That was the key. General Milley couldn't refuse the gift, and he couldn't open the gift‐wrapped package until much later, after the dinner.

"God damn my fucking brother‐in‐law", thought Frank. If Darlene wasn't off nursing his drunken and busted‐up old ass, I wouldn't have been home alone, and I wouldn't have accepted the invitation to this writers' dinner. Of all of the odd circumstances. At least I already know General Milley, so maybe I can get a moment alone with him, thought Frank. Of course, and then again, he is Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, so there will be a line of journalists and ass‐kissers a mile‐long. Oh well, I've always been skilled at navigating rocky shoals, so this should be interesting.

Chapter Ten ‐ The Red Phone

The DOD writer's awards dinner was a black‐tie affair, so Frank stood out in his trademark circa 1970's college professor attire ‐ the tweed blazer, button‐down open‐ collar white oxford dress shirt, a neatly pressed fresh pair of blue jeans, and dark brown cowboy boots. Frank's 7‐day beard and wire rim glasses completed the look.

Page 34 of 121

But even without the "I'm different just like every other rebellious liberal professor" look, Frank was easy to spot. His Nordic genes and active lifestyle in his youth made him at least a half‐head taller than anyone else in the Hilton Hotel banquet room. He finally made eye‐ contact with General Milley, and as if driven by the same motive, the two men approached each other. They greeted, shook hands, and spoke for a moment, and then the General turned to one of his aides, "I need about a half‐minute alone with the good professor" Stepping to the edge of the crowd, they began:

Milley: "Well, Frank Browne ‐ I haven't seen you in years, but I can certainly see that you seem a little anxious right now, like a man with a mission"

Browne: "Sir, yes sir, it's just that…"

Milley: "I suspect that it's important, and so what ever it is, why don't you just say it"?

Browne: "Sir, yes sir ‐ I was approached by two Russian agents from their Embassy, and they gave me… they asked me…"

Milley: "Let me guess, they have a message for me, and mankind's very survival depends upon my cooperation"? Milley was expecting some kind of contact from the Russians, and he felt gratified that his intuition was correct, and so he gave Frank an uncharacteristic smirk and raised eyebrow as he spoke those words.

Browne: (wondering if his heart was going to survive this encounter) "Phew, yes sir, like you are reading my mind. Anyway, please accept this, and don't open it here, keep it secure, and open it only after you are home tonight. You are scheduled to receive a call at midnight tonight"

Milley: "Good job soldier, if this all works out, we just might live to tell about it in our memoirs. I'll let you know if I need a good ghost writer."

Sometimes the aortic stint and the triple by‐pass gave Frank real (and perhaps imaginary) chest pains, and this was one of those times, so he headed to the men's room to quietly take a Nitrostat tablet, and to hold a crushed aspirin tablet under his tongue. There was a valet in the men's room, who handed fresh linen towels to each guest. Frank felt as if the valet somehow didn't fit the role. Probably a spy, Frank imagined ‐ but nothing came of it.

There was another "special" valet in the coat and hatcheck area. Briefcases were generally checked there as well, but General Milley had his Aide carry his briefcase, as well as carry the special gift from Frank Browne. It would be reported later by the

Page 35 of 121 General's embed Aide that he was not able to examine the gift, but that the gift‐ wrapped box felt unusually "heavy".

The rest of the evening was, by comparison, uneventful, and General Milley had his driver take him directly home after the awards dinner.

General Milley had a small private office in his home, where he settled in, and waited for midnight. He had everything laid out neatly on his desk, as was his compulsive manner. There before him was the hand‐written note, couriered from the guys at the Heritage Foundation, and the instructions that were included with the phone, and the rather large red plastic satellite phone. He had a few minutes to study and refresh his memory about Putin, but he wanted to avoid detection.

Using a tablet computer left by his son, Chris, he connected by a 5G mobile network, and selected the Onion/TOR browser. Google listed almost as many links to Putin's life as did the CIA/NSA, and that would have to be good enough.

The General busied himself by making notes about Putin, and he also studied the Google Earth map of Kaliningrad, and the approach from the Baltic sea. Kaliningrad is the only Russian Baltic Sea port that is ice‐free all year round, and it is therefore strategically of extreme importance to Russia's Baltic Fleet. Additionally, Kaliningrad was home to batteries of medium‐range nuclear‐capable missiles, including the newest variant of the Iskander‐M, which have only recently been stationed in Russia's Western Military District.

"Who thought up this crazy shit", he wondered. Lost in his thoughts, and not realizing that it was already midnight, General Milley began another Google search, when suddenly the Russian copy of the Motorola satellite phone began making a chirping ring. The general almost fell out of his chair, as he answered the incoming call.

Milley: "General Milley, here."

Translator: "I am the aide to President Putin, I will translate, in both directions for this call, if that is agreeable with you."

Milley: "Yes, of course"

Translator: "My apologies, but I am required to ask, are you alone, and has your security been compromised in any way"?

Milley: "I am alone, and as far as I know, everything is OK."

Page 36 of 121 Translator: "Very well, I will start, then. President Putin wishes to express his sincere appreciation for your cooperation. We of course know about the planned illegal intrusion upon Kaliningrad, and the staging of a device. The challenge before us is to stop any illegal act, and to prevent any military confrontation. The Russian Federation is agreeable to let all of this simply go away, if we can negotiate later, in the background, to somehow control Biden and Harris, and to control the CIA and the NSA."

Milley: "Well, one thing at a time, let's stop the course we are on. I, uh, must confess, and I hope that I am proving to you my total honesty, but this is a CIA operation, and the military only recently became aware of the full scope of the operation, and…"

Translator: "Wait", (pausing) "President Putin believes you, and he wants to know, did you know about the workshop equipment? We just now captured two trucks, driven by CIA operatives, the trucks were on the way to Professor Trunov's farm near Kaliningrad. Did you know about that"?

Milley: "Honestly, I have no idea. What was in the trucks, what was the purpose"?

Translator: (pausing) "The trucks carried everything, equipment, tools, raw materials, and machining lathes and milling machines ‐ everything that anyone would need to manufacture a very small, simple, single stage fission‐only gun‐type nuclear device. We have questioned the agents, and we also have other intelligence sources."

Translator: (continuing) "Apparently, the plan was to place all of this equipment in the farm work shed, or "barn", as you call it, and make the farm look like it was an operational clandestine bomb manufacturing shop. Professor Trunov would have been held in his home. Your agents would have then brought in from the submarine a real device, which was manufactured in America. Everything would have been photographed in place, and the bomb would have then been partially disassembled and photographed in place, and the professor and the bomb would have been taken away, back to the submarine, "extraordinary rendition", as you call it. None of this plan really made any sense to us until we also captured today an Interpol agent from Germany, and an MI‐5 agent from England. They were on standby, waiting for the call from the CIA, to go to the farmhouse, and to witness the last set of photographs with the partially dismantled bomb.. We believe that these European agents were duped, and they did not know that it was an illegal "sting" operation."

Milley: "My God, so that was our plan. I mean, ahem, so that was the CIA plan ‐ and maybe it would have worked ‐ but, you had to know, your SVR or GRU had to somehow know, how did you know"?

Translator: (pausing) "We have new ways of watching everything that you do. If

Page 37 of 121 America and Russia are ever friends again, we will show you how we discovered the CIA plot. Is that fair"?

Translator: (continuing) "We have lastly the most important question. Is your military fragmented and compartmentalized, and are some of your forces independently controlled directly by Biden's handlers, or can you directly stop the Missouri, and turn her around, and can you immediately disarm the B‐2 that is on the runway in Germany"?

Milley: "Amazing, so you even know about the B‐2. I believe that we can stop everything, there is only about 48 hours left, but you have to let us try ‐ please don't launch preemptive attacks against any of our assets ‐ give me a little time."

Translator: "Wait", (pausing) "President Putin firmly warns, that under the circumstances, the Missouri is legitimate target, and so are your B‐2 airbases, and both Biden and Harris themselves are legitimate targets. We will give you 24 hours, then we go to full alert, and then maybe there is no turning back from the brink."

Milley: "OK.. OK.. please give us time.. How will we communicate? I can't just wait on your call in 24‐hours"?

Translator: "We are prepared for that. Hopefully, we will see something on your news? Maybe Biden and Harris will lose power? Or, if you click the "recall" button on that satellite phone, then my satellite phone will ring. Lastly, you may simply call the Kremlin switchboard, and identify yourself, and they will connect you to President Putin, regardless of his location. We go now, OK? You have much to do, I believe."

Milley: "Yes, thank you, and tell President Putin that I will act in good faith."

Translator: "Dosvedanya, General Milley"!

General Mark A. Milley, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, was not normally a religious man. Of course, like any other button‐pusher, he went through the motions, and he even belonged to a church, and he knew some scripture, but he didn't really believe. But this was one of thos obsequiouse times when it certainly couldn't hurt, and the General said a silent prayer as he opened his wall safe.

There was a protocol for everything in the military, but there was no protocol for mutiny, for illegally removing a president, for violating the Constitution in order to save America, and to protect and defend the same Constitution, which he must now desecrate.

Page 38 of 121 Milley recalled a law school course, in which he was once asked, "is it permissible to commit a small crime in order to prevent a much more serious and larger crime"?

Milley's answer was "yes" then, and it was "yes" now…

Chapter Eleven ‐ The Uniform Code of Military Justice

It was nearly 1.00a.m., and 23 hours remained until Putin's deadline, to which Milley had agreed. General Milley finally reached the last of the other seven Joint Chiefs, and asked them to meet him right then, "quietly", at his home.

Milley's wife thoughtfully made coffee, and laid out some snacks for the men, before she quickly packed a few things, and headed for her sister's home just outside the beltway, as urgently instructed by the General.

Without their aides, and giving instructions for their drivers to wait at the end of the cul‐de‐sac near the Milley's home, one by one, the leadership of America's entire military arrived, there was Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General John E. Hyten, Chief of Staff of the Army General James C. McConville, Commandant of the Marine Corps General David H. Berger, Chief of Naval Operations Admiral Michael M. Gilday, Chief of Staff of the Air Force General Charles Q. Brown Jr., Chief of the National Guard Bureau General Daniel R. Hokanson, and Chief of Space Operations General John W. Raymond.

It was loyalty to America, and not really so much loyalty to General Milley, that brought these eight men together. Without anyone saying it, they knew what must be discussed. Admiral Gilday and General Brown had been with General Milley in the Oval Office only 24‐hours before.

They began with informal handshakes, small talk, and a somber look befitting the funeral of a best friend. Finally, General Milley began, and he asked each of the men to be seated.

Milley began, with an almost word for word retelling of the day's events, including receiving the satellite "red phone", and making contact with Putin. Every jaw dropped as each man fully absorbed the story and realized that the Russians "knew everything" about the CIA's illegal sting operation.

Milley went into some detail for a few more minutes, reading allegation after allegation from the Heritage Foundation's hand‐written letter, detailing every criminal charge, which could surely be brought against Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and Merrick

Page 39 of 121 Garland.

Milley pointed out that somehow, both the Russians and the Heritage Foundation had audio and video of every Biden and Harris crime.

Without making any real verbal response, every man reacted in his own way, shifting in his seat, or wringing his hands, or breaking eye‐contact with Milley and looking down, or forcibly exhaling with a "phew" or a "gasp", but no one said a word, not yet.

Milley continued: "Gentlemen, we must move swiftly. Biden and Harris have given illegal orders that cannot stand. We have, from this moment, slightly less than 23‐hours to prove to the Russians that the Missouri has turned around, that the B‐2 bomber in Germany has unloaded its cargo, and that Biden and Harris are no longer acting in the role of Commander‐in‐Chief of the U.S. military."

Admiral Gilday was first to speak, "Hell, we've only got until midnight, and that's a little over 22‐hours from now, and there is no way in that time that we can explain to Congress, and do anything even remotely Constitutional in that time‐frame, and…"

Milley cut him off: "We don't have to remove the tiger, not yet ‐ leave that to Congress ‐ we must only pull his claws. The solution came to me as I was on the call with Putin, and the way that I see it, we've only got two choices, which can be implemented quickly, and perhaps one of those choices is at least "remotely" Constitutional."

"I would be partial to any non‐Leavenworth option", chuckled General Hokanson.

Milley continued: "Exactly, that's the problem. Ideally, we shouldn't do anything, which the politicos can term "illegal". A full‐on coup d'état, even if there is a bloodless removal of the entire administration, would solve everything in one stroke, but it would be illegal. Even a "technical" coup d'état, wherein we declare that Biden is no longer the Commander‐in‐Chief, could still be illegal. What I have in mind is a "de facto‐technical", wherein we agree that every branch of service, every officer, every trooper, cannot, and will not, accept orders from President Joe Biden or Vice President Kamala Harris."

"There's no precedent for this, no procedure, no code, no protocol. It's still illegal", noted Army General McConville. "The President is the civilian authority. Hell, we've got the right to arrest each other, under the UCMJ, but no one can arrest the President."

"Exactly", countered Milley. "The UCMJ. I believe that our actions will be legal. Consider, if you will, what the UCMJ says about illegal orders."

"I dunno", countered Admiral Gilday, "The Uniform Code of Military Justice is much

Page 40 of 121 more concerned about "failure" of military personnel to obey legitimate orders than it is about refusal to obey illegitimate orders, but I suppose that it does address the subject."

"Now you've got it", shouted Milley, almost putting his fist through his wife's newest coffee table, "In Section 16c(1)(c), the UCMJ provides for the issue of Lawfulness. A general order or regulation is lawful unless it is contrary to the Constitution, the laws of the United States, or lawful superior orders or for some other reason is beyond the authority of the official issuing it."

"This goes way back", noted Milley. "On the 24th of March 2021, President Biden fully and intentionally skirted the U.S. Constitution in illegally ordering the Pentagon to commence additional secret acts of war against Syria. In light of this fact, President Biden's orders to the U.S. military to execute those attacks in Syria constitutes an illegal order under the Uniform Code of Military Justice."

"Now", continued Milley, "We don't know exactly when this nuclear bomb illegal sting operation was hatched between Biden and Harris and the CIA, but we know that it is illegal, and we are obligated under the UCMJ to resist that order, and related orders, and given the Biden Administration's pattern of abuse of every kind of law, both internal and external, we will simply not accept any further orders or directives from Biden or Harris."

"So, it's really that simple", noted General Hokanson. "I just hope that I can keep each State's National Guard units in line with the Joint Chiefs", he added as an afterthought.

"Wait a minute", said General Brown, "What about "little" details like Air Force One, Marine One, the guys in the basement bunker, nuclear deterrent protocols, DEFCON status, launch codes, launch authorizations, and the suitcase ‐ the black bag ‐ the nuclear football."

"And what about my Marines, who are required to hold an umbrella over that cocksucker's head", asked General Berger, Marine Corp Commandant.

"OK, OK", said Milley, "you're right ‐ while we can call this a 'de facto‐technical', and that's what I will tell the so‐called mainstream media, and the Congress ‐ and Biden himself." Milley continued: "In reality, we are taking Biden and Harris totally out of the loop. As far as I'm concerned, Biden can't even order a God damned cheeseburger from a U.S. Military facility." Milley paused, "General Brown and Admiral Gilday, how about if we agree that you two gentlemen will take turns carrying the football and the launch codes. We can even alternate between the two of your mobiles as the "actual" red phone, while we wait on Congress to finally flush‐out the Oval Office."

The eight men agreed on a course of action, but it would be tricky. They would switch from their limousines and "formal" drivers to Humvees with armed drivers, escort vehicles, and bodyguards. Within hours, the best of the best would be pulled from Special Forces, Rangers, and Seal Teams to personally defend the Joint Chiefs. Many of these elite troops were sworn members of Oath Keepers, and they would fight for whoever vowed to guard the Constitution and the Republic.

The Air Force and Navy must do their best to pull back the Missouri and to safely get the B‐2, and its cargo, out of Germany. The risk was simply this ‐ what if these two commands had gone rogue, and were following only CIA directives? That would remain to be seen in only a few more hours.

General Hokanson, Chief of the National Guard, agreed to take each State's guard units away from State control, and place them directly under the Joint Chiefs. Then, there was the uncomfortable issue of "race". The question of negroes in the military. If there was an open tug of war between the Administration and the Joint Chiefs, would military command and control ultimately disintegrate, and would blacks in uniform become, quite literally, "Biden's Troops"?

And, what about Biden's considerable reserve of heavily armed personal troops, the Secret Service, and what about the equally heavily armed Justice Department, CIA, DHS, FBI, Border Patrol, TSA, ICE, FEMA, DEA, and various contractors, and on and on. Biden and Harris controlled a "civilian" paramilitary larger than the regular military of most average‐sized countries. When you added in the State Police from any State where the Democratic Party was in power, it was an enormous force.

It was further agreed, that as a contingency, (which would perhaps be activated within two or three days), it may become necessary to re‐segregate the military. Additionally, it was observed that many of Biden's potential "civilian" paramilitary troops, (DHS, etc.), got their training in the military before becoming Federal agents.

Once in, always in. If necessary, General Hokanson could at least attempt to recall to active Federal duty all reservists and guardsmen who were now Federal agents. Working through a few trusted aides and flag rank Generals and Admirals, each of the eight men spent the next thirty minutes giving orders by encrypted personal phones ‐ orders which in many cases Biden and Harris would know about before it filtered down to the troops by daylight.

Map Highlighting Location of Kaliningrad, Russia Chapter Twelve ‐ Gathering of Eagles

"Jesus Christ", "what is this", thought Nick Creutzfeldt, he did a double take when he read the simple message handed to him by the messenger. Part of the group's emergency protocol was that in the event that there was imminent danger, or if there were extremely secret and urgent developments, they would find a way to communicate in the open, but in a clever way.

The messenger boy, from the Manhattan Concierge and Courier Service, had seen it all, but the printed message simply said, "Call.Me.At.212.638.2318.now.Bob.K." This of course meant that Colonel Bob Killebrew was in New York, and that it was pretty damned urgent. Nick went to a public phone in the lobby of the next building, and called. Colonel Killebrew answered on a borrowed mobile phone, and he simply said, "meet me where I first sat with Mr. Money". Nick, knew what that meant, and he headed to Trump Hotel.

The two men met, and Colonel Bob Killebrew simply presented a hand‐written list of names and titles, complete with company affiliations and phone numbers, to Nick Creutzfeldt.

Bob began, "General Milley woke me up right after 12:00 midnight last night. A "sudden change" will go into effect tonight. You are in charge of assembling a "citizen's counsel", or a "patriot's counsel", or a 'constitutional council', or whatever you guys want to call yourselves. Every man and woman on that list knows ‐ in general terms ‐ what is expected of him or her, and they are waiting your call. I want you and the staff at Trump Tower to host these people with comfortable guest suites and meeting rooms. Milley is sending a team of Army Rangers and some special ops guys to guard your group, and…"

Nick cut him off, "Bob, what is this, what is happening"?

Bob continued, "Nick, just imagine that it's 1787, and instead of Trump Hotel here in New York, just imagine that you are in Philadelphia. I want you and the good patriots on that list, to be the power brokers and the guarantors, and the underwriters, and the designers of nothing less than "The New American Government", and when that time comes, you and this team will secretly guide the political cocksuckers, who will lend their faces to the re‐organization of the Federal Government, while your team, in fact, will operate or at least advise the Federal government, as well as conduct the Second Constitutional Convention ‐ literally from behind the curtains."

Nick was stunned. It was too much, too soon. It's one thing to develop a concept, but it's quite another thing to implement it.

Page 43 of 121

Bob further explained, "General Milley and I will handle former President Trump and General Petraeus and their various "staged acts", including speaking to Congress, and speaking in front of the cameras, as this thing takes off. You and your team have the grunt work. You guys handle the writing, the logistics, the budget work, and the details of how a Two‐Con‐Con can create a roll back to the original Bill of Rights, the first Ten Amendments. General Milley and Heritage Foundation are going to show the truth to Congress, and when you see it ‐ it's going to blow your mind. Petraeus is going to be the "nice guy" sidekick, and we've got a "tough guy" role scripted for former President Trump. Take this list, find a new phone, and get on the fuckin' horn.

With that, Colonel Bob Killebrew departed New York for Washington, leaving a thoroughly stunned Nick Creutzfeldt holding a list of names of men and women who were arguably the "who's‐who" of the wizards behind the curtain. Reading the list aloud to himself, Nick was really amazed. "Peter J. Barris, Stephen Friedman, Howard E. Cox, Gen. Charles G. Boyd (Ret) USAF, Anita K. Jones, Paul G. Kaminski, Dr. Elisabeth Paté‐Cornell, John N. McMahon, Jon Symonds, John Chisholm, and George Tenet."

"Good Lord", thought Nick, "the weight of the money, power, influence ‐ and IQ's ‐ and big egos. We had better conduct these meetings in a ground floor ballroom, an elevated floor might collapse from the weight."

While Nick Creutzfeldt initiated the first few steps of inviting the future "privy council" to Trump Hotel in New York, nothing short of a coup d'état by another name was preparing to unfold in Washington in a few hours.

Chapter Thirteen ‐ Enemies at the Gates

America has had two presidents in recent memory who both despised and feared the military, William Jefferson "Bill" Clinton, and Barack Hussein Obama II. In the Obama administration, the Secret Service went so far as to request that soldiers could not be armed in Obama's presence, and that order finally trickled down and affected even the ceremonial M1‐A1 .308's carried by color guards and drill teams. This "institutionalized fear" became standard operating procedure again in the Biden‐ Harris administration.

Consequently, the sight of armed Humvees, and high‐ranking Generals in BDU's, and armed troops pulling up to the White House gates at 0500 hours sent a general alarm through the Secret Service.

Page 44 of 121 General Milley, Admiral Gilday, and General Brown stepped out of their vehicles, and they all found themselves immediately under gunpoint, with conflicting orders shouted in both directions, and with sniper laser dots painting the front of their fatigues in the pre‐dawn light.

After some "assertive" discussions, the three Joints Chiefs showed that they were not personally armed, and with Secret Service weapons still trained on them, they simply defied the orders of the gate guards, flashed their security badges, and the three Joint Chiefs, without their aides or personal guards, walked alone through the gates, leaving a long line of heavily armed Humvees and soldiers in the street.

Further away in the background, tanks were rolling, and helicopter gunships were spooling up, and soon there would be no traffic, other than military traffic, north of "K" street, or west of 23rd street, or east of 6th street, or south of Constitution Avenue. The cage was secure.

Upon entering the White House, it was obvious that this visit by the Joint Chiefs was expected, and they were ushered into the Oval Office. There sat a bleary‐eyed and stony‐faced President Joe Biden, Vice‐President Kamala Harris, CIA Director William J. Burns, and Attorney General Merrick Garland. (General Milley couldn't help but give thought to the fact that "all the key targets are conveniently in one place.")

The President and Vice President were flanked on each side by both plain‐clothes special contractors, and by uniformed Secret Service agents. There would certainly be some gun battles out on the streets in Washington, if any of these rental units get itchy trigger fingers, Milley thought to himself.

No one spoke a word. It was initially all eye‐contact, facial expressions, and gestures. Finally, General Milley laid a one‐page folded letter on the Resolute desk ‐ soon to be America's desk, again. The General withdrew several identical copies, gave one to Joe Biden, and one to Merrick Garland, and then began reading portions of the letter aloud, "the Joint Chiefs have met, and unanimously agreed that President Biden and Vice President Harris have repeatedly given illegal orders in the role as Commander‐in‐ Chief. The most recent incident being the planned intrusion into Russia, with the intent to place an American manufactured nuclear device, as part of a CIA‐controlled sting operation. Pursuant to the intent of Section 16c(1)(c) of the UCMJ, the Joint Chiefs must therefore take broad, complete, and decisive action, to insure that President Biden can no longer give any orders to any branch of the military. Evidence of the nuclear bomb plot, and evidence of other high crimes and misdemeanors will be presented to Congress this day, together with the Joint Chiefs recommendations."

President Joe Biden sat grinning his usual silly grin, and Kamala Harris had her usual

Page 45 of 121 case of the smiley‐faced giggles. But what happened next was certainly unexpected.

Joe Biden suddenly stood up, and with a wild‐eyed look, he firmly placed his hand on General Milley's shoulder, and began, "You can't do this, you simply can't. Why are you doing this? Is this about the birth certificate"? Joe Biden was really wound up, and he was right before giving living proof of the "raving lunatic" rumors, that had circulated for so long. Biden continued, "Are you guys still harping on where Obama was born"? "You know, it's not even Obama's fault. So what if Obama had a Muslim father and was born in Kenya and then adopted by a different Muslim man, and then enrolled as an Indonesian citizen in a Muslim school and later lied about all of it. After all, how could Obama have been born in Hawaii? It wasn't his fault. Hawaii wasn't even made a state until after Nixon ended World War Two in 1973. I remember it vividly."

That simply left everyone speechless, except Kamala Harris, who pushed a button on the President's desk phone, and simply said, "send in the nurse".

Two medical assistants quickly appeared, and one rolled up President Biden's sleeve and administered an injection, which seemed to immediately calm Joe down, if not necessarily bring him back to present‐day reality.

Kamala Harris spoke next, "So, Milley, watcha gonna do now, boy. You gonna let that crazy and worn‐out old Nancy Pelosi become Commander in Chief"? Kamala continued, "How about if I force your hand"? "You know, I could explain the situation to Congress myself, and offer my version of things, and even offer my resignation, and I could call you a traitor, for talking to Russia's President Putin from a satellite phone from your home last night." "How about if I simply request the resignation of all the Joint Chiefs, right now"?

General Milley risked loosing his four stars, and his freedom, and maybe even his life, but he was driven by a higher ethic, fulfilling a greater duty, one that he could not ignore.

"Madame Vice President", countered General Milley, "you are no longer in a position to give any orders regarding anything, outside of this building. You can't even communicate outside of the White House. Over the last 10‐minutes, everyone has been removed. The Air Force Colonel with the football, the other military attachés and communications specialists, the Navy stewards, the Marine honor guards, and all military personnel in the basement. We've dropped the equivalent of an electronic barrier around this building, and we have physically blocked every road and every tunnel with troops and Humvees, and tanks are rolling this way now. You will all have to stay right here, until Congress decides what to do with you."

Page 46 of 121 General Milley began to turn, as if to leave, but not before Merrick Garland spoke up, "You know General Milley, as Attorney General, I could order the arrest of you, and Admiral Gilday, and General Brown right now, and with the President's permission, I could ask these armed Secret Service agents to carry out that order."

"Mr. Garland", answered General Milley, as he briefly turned back towards the assembled men, "if I am not back on station within another 15‐minutes, then the Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Hyten, will take over. It might interest you to know, that General Hyten is not as tolerant as I am, and when this is all done, you might face a good old‐ fashioned lynching, instead of just a few years in Leavenworth. So, it's up to you. Do you want the General to be in charge of an "actual" coup d'état, or can we keep it civil"?

With that, Milley played out the rest of the bluffing game, and walked out of the White House.

Once back to the waiting Humvees, General Milley used a secure field radio, and simply gave the command, "Operation Praetorian Guard", and with that order, pre- positioned teams of drivers and armed escorts fanned out and went to the address of every Senator, and every U.S. Representative, with orders to bring them immediately to the Capitol, together with an overnight bag, consisting of at least one change of clothes, and any special medications. It was further noted, to the drivers, guards, and their officers, that they should "treat the Congressmen firmly, but at the same time, gently and with respect, and further noted that some of the Congressmen were disabled, diseased, diabetic, and often times drunk and/or drugged, and many with heart disorders." Yeah, that fairly well described almost all of Congress.

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi was awakened and briefed at 03:00 hours; the Joint Chiefs made it clear to her that she must accept the "brokered deal". Escorted by military police, she went straight into the Capitol Building, and called in a few of her personal aides and secretaries, at what was an unusually early hour for anyone in the political world.

Returning to the Pentagon, General Milley set up an informal "command center", and began with the most pressing matters at hand, confirming that orders had gone out last night to bring the Missouri back to port, and to secure the B‐2 from Fürstenfeldbruck Air Base in Germany

Chapter Fourteen ‐ Water for Elephants

In her novel, "Water for Elephants", Sara Gruen weaves a story that parallels the

Page 47 of 121 biblical tale of Jacob in the Book of Genesis. Many Old Testament stories exist as valuable parables for conflict, competition, and loyalty. Conflict and competition and disloyalty between brothers are as old as mankind itself, and just like there was Cain and Able, and Jacob and Esau, Biden and Harris made good use of the divisions between the CIA and the Military.

There's a scene in "Water for Elephants" where the main character, who has recently joined a circus, walks into the circus animal holding pen, a very odoriferous area. He simply asks, of another man working there, "How do you stand that smell?" The other worker looks at him, genuinely surprised. "What smell?" he enquires.

The Biden and Harris politics had been emanating a foul odor from day one, and in recent years too much of that odor was from the excrement on the hands of the CIA, the Justice Department, and all of the other non‐military, quasi‐civilian organizations, which Biden‐Harris controlled. However, regardless of the grade, expense, or rarity, an expensive grade of shit is still shit, and the Biden administration reeked of it.

In this "zoo" of Washington, D.C., in this story of elephants, rhinos, mules, and yellow dogs, the "impeachment paradox" would become the Passion Play. Soul‐searching by America's leaders would spin them in vicious circles. In a government where the Executive Branch had long ago quit managing, and had simply become the boss, dictator, and absolute ruler, the burning questions for free men became ‐ who should decide "when", (under what circumstances), and "who", (which party or branch or group), should "control" the boss?

Regardless of "who" would ultimately try to control Biden and Harris, there was a handpicked elite in the CIA, Justice, DHS, and etc., who were loyal to the President and Vice President and who were sworn to their defense. They could no longer smell the shit, and those loyalists were as great of a problem as Biden and Harris.

If ineffective leadership saddled General Motors, the worst thing that could happen is confusion, loss of market share, and finally a bankruptcy that would run the company into the ground. It's not the end of the world if we lose General Motors, but it just might be the end of the Free World if we loose America. Furthermore, for General Motors, it's an easy fix, the shareholders simply fire the Chairman.

However, for America, can Biden and Harris be fired? When the United States of America stands on the brink of economic failure and cultural ruin, and has only an ineffective Congress, and a mute Supreme Court as its guardians, then who "should" stand before the Executive, and block his path, and stop him? When the other two branches of government fail along with the Executive Branch, and the damage is widespread, and it keeps feeding on itself, who will protect and defend, from enemies

Page 48 of 121 both foreign and domestic?

That became the crux of the impeachment headache: Could the Joint Chiefs quickly, in the space of a few hours, convince this zoo ‐ this assembly of mules and elephants ‐ to remove Biden and Harris, while, for public consumption, appear as if they were "more or less" following the Constitution? Years later, the occasional left‐wing critic would write about the "illegal removal" of Biden and Harris, and comment on the "unacceptable, military‐installed" New Constitution, but that was of little consequence now ‐ avoiding a nuclear war was all that mattered.

The first order of assembling the Congressmen was to assure them of their comfort and safety, or "food for the mules and water for the elephants", as one of the Army Logistics Colonels noted.

Every Senator and Representative had several, if not dozens, of aides, secretaries, and interns, most of which must be excluded from the process at hand. Only Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi was allowed to have her staff in her office for the next few hours.

The same electronic suppression and countermeasures team, which had in effect wrapped an electronic blanket around the White House, and cut them off from the world, was cranking up the same type of suppression units around the Capitol Building. Once inside, the Congressmen would have no email, text, or voice communications with the outside world.

There was the issue of media spin, and keeping the details of the process under wraps. Of course, the cat was already out of the bag, and the international media was already reporting that America was finally joining the ranks of lesser third‐world countries, with its first ever military coup d'état. The sight of tanks, and troops, and Humvees, and helicopter gunships did not go unnoticed, obviously.

Then, there were also the personal reports phoned in via mobile phones from Senators and Congressmen before they reached the Capitol. More than a few of whom were dragged unshaved and barely dressed from the apartments of their girl friends, or from the incall suites of trendy escorts. There would be plenty of time later for them to make up lies regarding "where they were" when the military drivers and guards came to capture them.

So, in the middle of all of this, at about 11:00am, the Pentagon communications office allowed a small pool of "controllable" reporters from every major broadcaster, to hear a brief address from General Milley explaining that there was no military coup d'état, strictly speaking. But that Biden and Harris had been "separated" from the military

Page 49 of 121 chain of command, and that the Joint Chiefs would ask Congress to immediately impeach, convict, and remove the President and the Vice President. The issue? The issue involved nuclear weapons and Presidential misuse of power on a grandiose scale. Milley went on to explain that he had personally been in contact with President Putin of Russia, and that the entire matter would be revealed to the public after midnight tonight.

General Milley's words were crafted to not only soothe an anxious and suspicious public, but also to most especially convey to Russia that the deal was underway, and everything was under control.

At about the same time, back down in Florida at Mar‐a‐Lago, former President Trump announced that he was preparing to give a 1:00pm press conference. His announcement was designed to create a media frenzy on a scale never before seen.

The next order of business was to give some of the guys from the Heritage Foundation team a place to work within the Capitol building, so that they could prepare an approximately one‐hour video and audio presentation, which would simply show the "best of the worst", from several examples of Biden and Harris crimes.

General Petraeus was brought in, and he would be prepared to give a brief speech, revealing a few facts about Biden's gifts of billions in cash to Iran, in exchange for another fake nuclear treaty.

It was 3:00pm before the last straggling Congressman had been dragged kicking and screaming into the Capitol building, and that gave General Milley slightly less than nine hours to remove Biden, Harris, Biden's cabinet and every appointee, numerous czars, two un‐American supreme court judges, and numerous lower court judges, and swear‐in a new President and a Vice President, and make the call to President Putin before midnight. No problem…

Chapter Fifteen ‐ And a King Shall be Anointed

History would record that former President Donald John Trump wrote this speech, the most impassioned speech of his political career. In reality, General Milley requested that legal and political experts at the Heritage Foundation think tank group should put together the best of the best, and create a "right‐leaning" speech, and so it was done. The plan was to graphically and impassionately capture the hearts and minds of the left, and move them to the center, and that tide swell of public opinion would also bring the center to the right. It would be the first major speech by a very

Page 50 of 121 few hand‐picked politicians, who would lend their names and faces to the task of rebuilding America.

With a little help from his new power‐broker friends in New York City, Donald Trump assembled the "correct" news media team who set up their cameras and satellite trucks outside his home in Florida at Mar‐a‐Lago. These men and women were among the best from each broadcast network and media outlet, but they all had one thing in common ‐ they were well‐known "objective" or "moderate" talking heads, who had been relegated to second‐stringers by the Biden‐Harris media control team. They could be manipulated, and they would take this opportunity to choke on the Kool Aide, and spit it back up, and reject the liberal venom.

Trump's quickly improvised speech would follow this morning's pre‐dawn roll of troops and actions at the White House. He was speaking only two hours after Milley's address from the Pentagon, and the online media was also currently reporting a small but steady stream of Twitter messages from a few straggling Congressmen, who were still en route to the Capitol.

Former President Donald J. Trump would speak from prepared notes, but before he began, he did something that was last seen in Hitler's most famous propaganda film, "Triumph of the Will". He mastered the art, in one stroke, of the "theatrical pause". He made eye‐contact, especially with the young and adoring female reporters, but he waited...

Finally, a few of the female reporters began chanting, "Trump, Trump, Trump".

Trump returned their adoring smile, brushed his hair out of his eyes, and still he waited ‐ Steely eyed and silent ‐ arms crossed, chin prominent, making maximum use of the "dramatic pause", he waited…

Finally, all of the reporters, male and female, began loudly chanting, "TRUMP, TRUMP, TRUMP" ! !

Trump finally raised his hand to acknowledge them, and then he began: "I want to thank the networks for allowing me to make this statement, and for giving me air‐time on what history will record as the Biden and Harris Crimes issue. In a nutshell, it is this ‐ we were almost on the eve of World War Three ‐ We are perhaps alive right now because of the actions of General Milley and the Joint Chiefs."

"Biden and Harris and their CIA handlers have routinely played with fire on every issue, including China, Iran, Syria, and now ‐ you will soon hear what I have already been briefed on. You will hear of an almost apocalyptic revelation in regards to an illegal

Page 51 of 121 nuclear bomb "sting" operation that Biden and Harris attempted to conduct against Russia, and it should finally be obvious to you ‐ when all of the truth comes out ‐ the Biden administration has never been honest with the American people, not on any issue."

Trump continued, "You know, I'm just a private citizen again, but I still know what's going on, and I have my finger on the pulse, and I still have access to people and processes. There are still quite a few powerful people and important decision makers who value my opinion, and so they called me. As a matter of fact, I received several calls right after 3:00am this morning, as all of this was developing, I was consulted by General Milley, and others, and they informed me about everything, and so I listened, and later I made a few calls."

"General Milley dispatched one of his aides in the wee hours last night, who briefed me in person about a Russian city named Kaliningrad, and about a Virginia‐class attack submarine, named the Missouri."

"After I heard what was going on, after I heard what Biden and Harris attempted to do, I had a few serious questions that I wanted to ask, about Russia, about China, about Iran, about Syria, about Israel. I wanted to know if America is ready for another war in the Middle East, and are we in fact prepared to engage Russia and China in either World War Three, or at least in another proxy war, the third such proxy war in 60‐ years"?

"You know, it didn't really go very well for America, when we fought China and Russia and their North Korean proxies in the 1950's, and it was even more disastrous when we fought China and Russia again in the 1960's and 70's in the guise of their North Vietnamese proxies. I can tell you, even if America avoids a direct conflict with Russia, we are not prepared for a two‐front war in the Middle‐East, fighting both Syria and Iran, who will be backed by their Russian and Chinese allies."

"I also have a few philosophical questions ‐ Has the USA become the world's de facto Global Police Force? If so, from where does that authority come? Who is the prosecutor? Who sat on the grand jury? What judge issued a warrant? Honestly, sometimes we should ask, why have Russia's and Iran's and Syria's internal affairs become our business"?

"Do you realize, that not that many years ago, we only narrowly avoided a major war in Syria, allegedly over nerve gas"? "Do you realize that even back then it was Russia's President Putin who saved us from then President Obama's "red line" in Syria"? "You know, I quietly investigated during that time, and I asked during the period of those tensions, had the Syrian government troops attacked any Americans or American

Page 52 of 121 interests? No? What right would America have had then to unilaterally attack Syria? We are not obligated, under treaty or otherwise, to intervene in their civil war."

"It wasn't that long ago, and perhaps news in America has only a 15‐minute shelf‐life, but there is linkage. There is a CIA and former President Obama linkage, from "Arab Spring", to Iran, to Syria, and now to this latest Biden and Harris crimes, which were almost committed against Russia."

Trump continued, "Why did Biden and Harris really want to become involved in Syria again? Why? Because from President Bush, to President Obama, to right now in the Biden‐Harris administration, you and the American people have been programmed like robots. All anyone has to say is "WMD", and then any reaction is justified, even if we have no dog in that fight."

"You know, by comparison, there wasn't that much of an uproar when over 100,000 Syrians died from small arms injuries, but when 1,000 died, allegedly from nerve gas, which was allegedly used by the Syrian government against the opposition, you the news media reacted. What you don't know ‐ and this will all come out ‐ former President Obama wanted the nerve gas issue. He wanted to be able to claim that a "Weapon of Mass Destruction" was used on the Syrian people, so that the USA could feel as if it must intervene."

Trump further explained, "Do you see the parallels? I'm challenging the media and the American people to connect the dots from Iran's nuclear ambitions, to Syrian nerve gas, to a Biden and Harris‐created fake nuclear bomb factory in Kaliningrad… Do you see? Do you understand? It's all about Biden trying to create his equivalent of a Kennedy‐ style "Cuban‐missile‐crisis", it's all about President Biden and Vice President Harris trying to place themselves in a position to disarm the world, and to then control the world. That's as simple of a picture as I can paint."

Trump paused and continued, "Ever since "Super‐Tuesday" in 2020, I've asked myself, who created the reanimation of this demented old man, Joe Biden"?

"Who controls Joe Biden? Who is behind the curtain pulling the strings? What are their plans for America? There are certainly moral and philosophical questions about Biden and Harris, which cannot be answered, but the practical questions still remain. "

Trump continued, "This crisis with Russia is only a few hours old, and still unfolding. I'm still connected, I've still got everyone's "red‐phone" personal mobile number, so I woke a few of them up. I made a few calls, early this morning, well before dawn. I first called President Joe Biden. He was at first reluctant to take my call, but when he finally did speak with me, there were no answers, there was just clueless old Joe, laughing into

Page 53 of 121 the phone. It was a brief and meaningless call. Next, I tried to call Attorney General Merrick Garland."

"Well, I guess Merrick was too busy carrying Biden's water, and making impassioned speeches. Next, I tried John Kerry, he seems to know a lot about Iran and fake climate change, but even after two attempts, he would not take my call. Perhaps avoidance is better than confrontation for John, at this awkward juncture, in his political career."

"So, leaving the Executive Branch, as it were, I rang up Capitol Hill. I first called Chuck Schumer, Senate majority leader. Good old Chuck was friendly and conciliatory, but he was personally unaware of the crisis at that moment, and he had no answers. Then, with no other place to turn, I solicited the opposition party. I then called Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. She was friendly, but hesitant. She had no direct answers, and I was afraid that it would be another brief call, but all of sudden she perked up, and admitted that she really knew all about it, and she had a bold suggestion for me. It was Nancy Pelosi who encouraged me to call Russia's President Putin."

Trump smiled broadly and continued, "The President of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, is a man who is known to be bold and direct. If anyone would share straight talk with me, in an impromptu phone call, I suppose that it would be Putin. It was after daylight this morning when I contacted the Russian ambassador in Washington, and through Putin's secretary, an appointment was set. The Russian President graciously accepted my call, and he spoke with me at 10.00am this morning. We spoke through interpreters, but I could hear the sincerity and the even tone in his voice. He had some very shocking things to say, yet I heard no anger in his voice."

"I learned some very surprising things from President Putin, and I feel obligated to tell the American people the real dangers, the real warnings, which are being withheld by the Biden administration. President Putin really "dropped the bomb", figuratively, when he told me that there have been three previous phone calls in the last 24‐hours, "red‐phone" as it were. Putin attempted to call Biden twice in the last 24‐hours, and he got nowhere with either Biden or Harris."

Trump paused, and then continued, "You will hear, however, in the coming hours and days, about the details of Putin's call at midnight last night to the Joint Chiefs. The long and the short of it is this ‐ Again, just like with Obama's foray into Syria, Putin has saved us from a war initiated by Biden and Harris."

"It could be argued that Russia owed a debt to America, and if so, President Putin has repaid that debt, with interest, many times over. In World War Two, America, in no small part, saved the Soviet Union from Nazi Germany. Russia, and President Putin, may have just saved us from Biden‐Harris and World War Three".

Page 54 of 121

"I certainly don't wish to seem unpatriotic in the middle of a crisis, but at some point, real military professionals, who are qualified, must ultimately assume the role of Commander‐in‐Chief, if the President is unqualified or presents a danger."

Trump smiled and thumped the podium with his fist, "I know, it doesn't say precisely that in the U.S. Constitution. What is provided for, under the Twenty‐Fifth Amendment, is that Vice President Harris and the Cabinet could have removed Biden, but from the briefings that I have heard, Kamala Harris and many of the Cabinet members have committed their own crimes, and the cabinet is either unwilling, or unable to challenge Biden or Harris, or whoever is really in charge."

"Based on what I have been told, I believe that President Biden gave both illegal and unwise orders, and I believe that General Milley and the Joint Chiefs have taken the only course available to them. The dangers were real and immediate, and I believe that Biden and Harris intentionally and callously ignoring those dangers. There was the risk of a world war, we perhaps came extremely close to a nuclear exchange, but between the actions of President Putin and the Joint Chiefs, I believe that we have been saved."

"At the very least, the lives of our soldiers, sailors, and airmen will not be at risk, if we are not forced into a manufactured conflict, to which we have no right. Putin bragged to me about Russia's military, and the similar strengths of China. Putin mentioned one weapon in particular. He claims that Russia has developed a long‐range stealthy ship‐ killing cruise missile, which can be fired from halfway around the world, and sink an aircraft carrier, and there is no defense against it. President Putin ended the call, after he asked a not‐so‐rhetorical question. He asked simply, "how much of your Navy are you willing to loose"? Through his interpreter and mine, those were Putin's exact words."

Trump continued, "I am no longer the Commander‐in‐Chief. I cannot answer President Putin's question. However, I am here today, reporting this, because I am challenging the American people, and the news media, and the Joint Chiefs, and Congress to ask Biden and Harris that same question."

"How much losses would Biden have accepted, just so that he could fulfill his maniacal vision of himself as this generation's successor to John Kennedy? How large of a regional war, or world war, will you accept, and for what purpose"?

"Perhaps we have meddled and interfered in Russia, and China, and the Middle East for long enough."

Trump was close to winding it up, "Lastly, I'm going back to Washington immediately

Page 55 of 121 this afternoon. I have been invited by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to stand by at the Capitol until I am called before the House of Representatives tonight. I have been asked by a bi‐partisan group to make myself ready and available if I am called upon to once again serve my country."

With a well‐rehearsed tear in his eye, and with his voice trembling and breaking, Trump closed with ‐ "May God bless America, and thank you for hearing me."

Chapter Sixteen ‐ Joint Session of Congress

There's something gratifying about seeing the sons and daughters of the middle class ‐ real Americans ‐ clad in Battle Dress Uniform, and armed with Berretta Model 92F 9mm sidearms, and carrying crowd control zap‐sticks and cattle prods. There is something so rewarding about seeing those healthy young men and women guiding, controlling, and ordering about these overwhelmingly phlegmatic buffaloes within the Capitol chamber.

With the other seven Joint Chiefs at their stations in the Pentagon, only General Milley and his aides and field officers were on the ground here in the Capitol Building, ready to supervise and guide Congress, and to take each step of the process to its logical conclusion.

By 4:00pm, every Congressman had been cleaned up, fed and watered, and placed in his or her seat by the young troops. General Milley took the podium, tapped the microphone, and was about to speak, when, predictably, there was a commotion from the Democratic side of the seated House of Representatives. And, yes, with even further predictably, it was a negro, a female, who would later be identified as Maxine Waters, Congresswoman from the Forty‐Third District of California.

The Army Lieutenant General and the Senior Colonel in charge of the floor seating and crowd control had previously been given orders to "suitably make an example" out of anyone who was non‐cooperative, or who severely got out of control.

Maxine Waters stood up screaming, "Y'all can't do this to my prezdent, y'all can't do this." At that point, she moved away from her seat, and she got into a tussle with a female trooper who had been assigned to Maxine. It happened very quickly, but it looked like Ms. Waters reached for the trooper's sidearm. That's all it took, and with fists and truncheons, she was subdued and dragged unconscious from the House chamber, never to be seen again.

General Milley again tapped on the microphone, and he began: "Ladies and

Page 56 of 121 gentlemen, Senators and Congressmen, we have less than eight hours remaining in order to fulfill a promise that I made to President Putin at midnight last night. In the time remaining, we will hear evidence, and we will impeach, try in absentia, convict, and remove ‐ en masse ‐ essentially the entire executive branch and their appointees. At that point a "new", yes I said a "new" Speaker of the House will become President."

General Milley continued, "It won't be Nancy Pelosi, and Nancy will explain that "brokered deal" to you in a few moments. That new President will be sworn in, and before you go home tonight, you will accept his or her nomination for Vice President, and that new Vice President will be sworn in. Following tonight's labor, we are going to keep you here for as many more days as we must, until you call for a Second Constitutional Convention".

Milley paused and then continued, "Before I turn the microphone over to. outgoing Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, I'm going to explain a few rules, which the Speaker will reiterate. Simply this ‐ we came closer to a nuclear confrontation than you can imagine. For the moment, practically speaking, I am in charge of things. I strongly request that you cooperate. We will conduct one joint open meeting tonight, Senate and House together, in joint session, with no secret committees, and you will vote on voice vote."

"There are no cameras or recorders running. We have swept the chamber several times. When you go back home to face your constituents, if you are not smart enough to be proud of what we accomplish here tonight, then you are free to do what politicians do best, and you can lie to your heart's content about how you voted. Again, there is no record, it will all be voice vote, and those are the rules. Nancy, lets do some congressional work."

With that, General Milley conferred with his aides, some distance behind the podium, and reviewed some hand‐written dispatches from the troops on the ground around the White House. Thus far, it was turning out to be a bloodless coup, and Biden and Harris were contained and cut‐off.

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi stepped up to the podium, took the microphone, and she began: "Ladies and gentlemen, settle down, keep your seats, and stay silent until you are asked to vote. Before we go any farther, I'm going to ask for two things, because I personally believe that the "formal" approach is somewhat in reverse or "backwards" in this case. I'm going to do two things, right now. I'm going to ask General Milley to explain, quickly, how we got into this mess. He can tell the story quicker than I can, and I don't think we will need too much formal evidence after that. However, following General Milley's return to the podium, and after his brief explanation, I want the technical fellows to present an abbreviated version of the "spy

Page 57 of 121 cam" video clips and audio from the Oval Office."

General Milley returned to the microphone, and he essentially reiterated the entire story, in some detail, starting approximately 48 hours before. The reaction was similar to his telling of the story to the other Joint Chiefs in his home, over twenty hours previously, the wind went out of the wind bags.

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi then returned to the podium, took the microphone, and introduced an attorney, David Addington, who would explain and/or narrate some of the videos. David began: "Ladies and gentlemen, some of what you will see and hear is classified. Some of it, much of it, is down right embarrassing, and if you recognize yourself in these videos, if you are the one rolling around on the Presidential seal with Kamala Harris, or, if you are the one smoking dope with Harris, or letting her put a sex toy up your ass, well, you have to live with it, not me." David paused, "Can the technical crew put it on the screen, and can you give me forward and stop motion control on this remote controller"?

David began, starting and stopping at intervals, and each time summarizing what was shown.

"OK, that was Biden with two of his medical doctors, and as you saw and heard, they had no less than five groups of medications for alertness, mental acuity, sleep, waking, and so forth, and yeah, that was Kamala Harris sitting briefly on the sofa, observing, and clearly witnessing, but not reporting to the Cabinet that Joe Biden is medically and mentally unfit to serve as POTUS and CIC."

"Oh, this is a classic, another jail‐bait special, that was Kamala Harris with some young boy, the kid looks like he's maybe early high‐school age, we can I.D. the kid later and bring charges against Harris for drug use and sodomy or child‐rape."

"That was Harris snorting cocaine, we've got maybe 200 short videos like this, just Kamala Harris sitting in the Oval Office, just sitting alone, drinking and doing illegal drugs. I will spare you ladies and gentlemen the embarrassment of showing the clips where some of you are sharing a reefer or a line of coke with Kamala."

"Oh, that one is certainly my favorite: That was Joe Biden, his wife Jill, Kamala Harris, and Merrick Garland, all speaking matter‐of‐factly about their plans to use the DHS, FEMA, and the Justice Department to stage additional racial incidents, to further manipulate the press, encourage a race war, and then selectively disarm only non‐ blacks. It just makes you proud to be an American, now doesn't it"?

"That was Biden and Harris meeting with CIA Director William J. Burns, and approving

Page 58 of 121 the illegal transfer of Billions in cash to Iran."

"OK, next, in that same clip, you heard them discussing the CIA implants in the military, which they felt were necessary to prevent an outright coup d'état, as almost occurred in former President Obama's administration in the Fall of 2012."

David Addington continued, "That was Biden and Harris meeting again with CIA Director Burns, hearing that the push‐back from some of the Syrian rebel groups, who former President Obama had previously armed, was the actual cause of the Benghazi attack. So, as you can see, they're still trying to cover‐up for previous administrations. When I skipped forward, that was Biden and Harris meeting again with CIA Director Burns, reaching an agreement to spare the life of General Milley, even though they both wanted to assassinate him."

"Those last few videos are from the last few days, relating to this nuclear weapons incident, and that confirms every detail that you heard from General Milley, and one of the last things that you saw there, before the electronic curtain fell, was President Joe Biden, and I'm of the opinion that wasn't an act, I believe that he really is stark raving loony tunes, but that's no secret in political circles."

David Addington continued: "We've got hundreds of hours of this stuff from the Oval Office spy cams. You can see more of it when selected parts of it go public, perhaps as early as tomorrow. Anything involving sex with underage kids, or involving nuclear weapons secrets will not be shown to the general public. When we are done here, and when we have a new Justice Department, we will let the new Attorney General charge "citizens Biden and Harris" with every crime they committed. But, for tonight, you've seen plenty enough to tag Joe Biden and Kamala Harris with high crimes and misdemeanors. Thanks for your attention."

Almost 95‐percent of the Republicans and maybe 70‐percent of the Democrats stood up and respectfully clapped after David Addington finished. Those would be about the same numbers in the voting, soon to follow.

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi then returned to the podium, took the microphone, and continued: "Alright, let's keep the momentum going. We're going to start with the formal Articles of Impeachment, and it shouldn't take too long. Since this only involves the House, if any of you Senators want to take a quick bathroom break, do it now, but stay with your Army escorts, don't try to use a public phone or landline or anything, and come right back."

Speaker Nancy Pelosi continued: "I'm going to break from tradition, and read from a prepared written record, and then ask for a second to my call for the en masse

Page 59 of 121 impeachment. OK, here goes." (Speaker Pelosi paused, tears welled‐up in her eyes, and she looked like she might falter or even collapse.) (There was some commotion in the front rows, as she was encouraged to continue.)

Speaker Nancy Pelosi resumed: "I'm OK, I'm OK, this is just so intense, real history in the making, very overwhelming. Ahem, OK, you can read the entire prepared text of the Articles of Impeachment from the overhead. Due to time constraints, we are bypassing the little niceties like forming committees, bringing charges, reporting out of committee, and so forth. We will go now to a direct Impeachment Resolution, as follows: "Before Congress on this date, blah‐ blah, y'all can read it in the overhead, I'm not reading all of that. The specified charges for all of those charged, for the entire damned list, is "Un‐Americanism", and "Unfit to Serve", the specific charges against Biden, Harris, and their cabinet, and of course Merrick Garland are much more lengthy and much more detailed, as you can see on the overhead."

Speaker Nancy Pelosi resumed: "This is the summary, showing the names and titles. Please note that the total number of persons affected, as you can read it on the overhead includes ‐ 2‐Executives, Biden and Harris 22‐Cabinet, and Cabinet‐Level Officers 45‐Assistant Directors 43‐So‐called "Czars" 10‐Regular and Special Federal Judges 2‐Supreme Court Justices

Speaker Nancy Pelosi continued: "There is then, a total of 124‐persons, who can only be removed by either impeachment or resignation. It is my understanding that the remainder of Biden‐selected and Cabinet‐selected so‐called "regular employees" can be removed by other means by the new Administration, and I understand that there are tens of thousands."

Speaker Pelosi continued: "OK, it looks like the Senate is starting to file back in, let's leave these numbers up on the overhead, for all to see. Please accept that I have just entered a motion for impeachment of these 124‐persons, an unprecedented en masse impeachment of an entire Administration. OK, can I have a second"? (pause) "OK, you don't have to rise to speak, I accept the second, lets move along."

Speaker Nancy Pelosi resumed: "OK, if there is no objection, and there had better not be, I want to proceed directly to a voice vote to accept the Articles of Impeachment. Our aides can clean it up later, and add a formal Bill Number to it, and enter it into the written record."

Page 60 of 121 Speaker Nancy Pelosi hesitated, breathed in, and looked over the House, smiled, and asked: "All those who vote for this Impeachment Resolution, please signify by shouting "aye", (pause, laughter) "OK, I reckon I heard that loud and clear. Any nays? Very well, let the written record show that the motion for impeachment of these 124‐persons passed almost unanimously on voice vote."

Speaker Nancy Pelosi resumed: "OK, now that you've bought it, I reckon that it's about time that you found out what you've paid for. I'm going to explain the so‐called "brokered‐deal", and the gentlemen's agreement between all parties. After the Senate convicts all 124‐persons, at that moment, we won't have a President or a Vice‐President any longer, and since I'm third in line, and oh, there conveniently sits Chief Justice John Roberts, who has been politely waiting for this part. (Laughter) Anyway, I feel as if I'm not especially qualified to be President of the United States and Commander in Chief." (wild laughter) (pause).

Speaker Nancy Pelosi resumed: "Additionally, it occurs to me that this a unique opportunity to re‐write history. As we all know, if the news media hadn't sucked down the Kool Aide in 2008, we would have had either Hillary Clinton or John McCain as President, and in 2020, I must admit, Trump should have been reelected. (applause, standing ovation) "All right, all you RINO's and yellow dogs sit down, I know you smell blood." (Laughter) "Alright, let's do this thing, maybe you'll give me my old job back tomorrow." (laughter)

Speaker Pelosi continued: "Will someone please, by voice, and with a second, offer a resolution declaring that the Office of the Speaker of the House is vacant"? (pause) "OK, and a second"? (pause) "OK, all those who vote for the resolution, please signify by shouting "aye". (pause) "OK, I reckon I heard that. Are there any nays? Very well, let the written record show that the motion passed almost unanimously on voice vote."

Nancy Pelosi continued: "Very well, I am no longer Speaker of the House, so I'm setting down this gavel, and there is a gentleman we all know, who has just arrived from Florida, who wishes to address all of you."

Nancy Pelosi closed with: "Will Majority Leader Steny Hoyer come up here and work this gavel for a few minutes"? (pause)

Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, taking the podium: "It is my pleasure to introduce former President Donald John Trump, who may very well become the next Speaker of the House of Representatives, and then the next President of the United States."

Donald Trump walked to the podium, and the entire chamber, Senators and Congressmen, Democrats and Republicans, all rose as one, with a long and sustained

Page 61 of 121 and thunderous applause. Trump began: "So, you miss me already"? (applause, laughter, continual standing ovation) "First, I want to thank General Milley, and Nancy Pelosi, and many others who have worked in the background, for the confidence that they placed in me. I am prepared to once again lead America as its President." (applause) "I was ready in 2020, and I'm even more ready now. I'm a real American, and I'm not a crazy old coot like Joe Biden, or a scheming communist like Kamala Harris."

Trump continued: "I'm prepared, and I've agreed to the brokered‐deal. There's nothing in the Constitution that prevents the House of Representatives from selecting a qualified person from outside of its ranks, and I volunteer to be that person, specifically for the purpose of being third in line in the order of succession. Assuming that the Senate can vote quickly to convict Biden and Harris and the rest of the corrupt Executive Branch and all of their appointees, then I shouldn't be Speaker of the House for more than 5 or 10‐minutes." (Laughter)

Trump resumed: "In the brokered arrangement, I have agreed that once I am sworn in as President, my first act will be to nominate a man as my Vice President, a man who has loyally served America for almost his entire adult life, a man who can guide me, especially in my duties as Commander in Chief, as well as assist me with the arduous task of rebuilding the CIA, and perhaps re‐directing the NSA. I am of course referring to that American General, my friend and mentor, General David Howell Petraeus, a man who was wronged by the previous Obama administration." (wild applause)

Trump continued: "We are here today, because of the many failures... of both political parties, and all branches of Government ‐ remember one thing ‐ no matter how evil, and corrupt, or unqualified are Biden and Harris, you put them there. The majority of Americans "allegedly" voted for them, and some voted twice." (Laughter) "The system is broken, and we won't fix it overnight, but I do pledge, that with your help, we are going to roll back the clock ‐ quite quickly ‐ to a time when Americans had strength, and purpose, and dedication. We are going to create a new America, where only qualified persons may serve in government. I can't do that alone. I will do it with your cooperation, and in true partnership with the man who will be Vice President, General Petraeus. Before you vote to elect me as Speaker of the House, and before the Senate votes to convict Biden, Harris, and the rest of the 124, I want you to please hear just a few words from General Petraeus."

(..standing applause..)

Steny Hoyer, taking the podium: "It is my deep pleasure to introduce General David Petraeus." (..more standing applause..)

Page 62 of 121 General David Howell Petraeus stepped up to the podium, took the microphone, and he began: "Ladies and gentlemen, Congressmen, Senators, in a letter from Thomas Jefferson to William Smith, written in 1787, Jefferson discussed a predicted need for future changes in our new government. Jefferson predicted the need to perhaps refresh or change a future government that would, inevitably, become too powerful, and would no longer represent the people. You of course know the famous excerpt from that long letter, "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants." ‐ (muffled applause)

Petraeus continued, "well, as a career military man, I know a thing or two about blood, and I know that we are seriously overdue for some real change, but I want to assure you that I believe in a peaceful process, I believe in Posse Comitatus, I believe in States Rights and the Tenth Amendment, and I don't want to see America's armed forces used to contain and control real Americans." (Standing applause)

General Petraeus Continued: "I will of course offer practical leadership to the military in the new Administration. I will hone a sharp and carefully guided military, run by professionals and specialists, and not led by politically‐correct button‐pushers who were selected according to race or gender." (quiet cough) "We've got to find a natural way, to create a "Joint Council", for lack of a better name, that in peace time, can at least offer advice to the Joint Chiefs, and answer to both the Commander‐in‐Chief and to the Congress." (applause)

Petraeus Continued: "In addition to making fundamental changes to military leadership, we will also yield to changes in both the Presidency and the Vice Presidency. We stand here, almost on the brink of nuclear war, simply because our system spun out of control, and too much power was vested in one man."

Petraeus Continued: "We must create some internal checks and balances, within the Executive Branch, to prevent this from ever happening again." (applause) "On a somewhat related issue, another of the many challenges ahead of us, will be to "re‐ arm", or at least change the mission of America's beleaguered Local Police Forces, and disarm, to a degree, some of these excessively armed Federal Agencies". (Wild Applause) (pause)

General Petraeus Continued: "Additionally, you have my promise that what we will have achieved, before midnight tonight, and what we will also achieve over the next few weeks in a Second Constitutional Convention, will be done as bloodless, and as peaceful as humanly possible, I assure you of that." (Standing applause) "Thank you, and please let me turn this podium back over to Steny Hoyer."

Steny Hoyer, taking the podium: "Thank you, General Petraeus." (pause) "So, are we

Page 63 of 121 ready to do this thing"? (Wild standing applause) "I want to do this with just a little formality, but no speeches, and let's keep it moving, and like Nancy said, we'll clean up the written record later. Will someone please stand, and place the name of former President Donald John Trump into nomination for Speaker of the House of Representatives? Alright, I guess that's just about everybody, but I'd like to recognize Nancy Pelosi for the record. OK, OK, no speeches. Can I have a second? OK, I recognize Kevin McCarthy." (pause.)

Steny Hoyer briefly hesitated, smiled, and looked over the House, and asked: "All those who vote for Donald Trump for Speaker of the House of Representatives, please signify by shouting aye" (wild shouting) "I think I just heard America speaking loud and clear. Any nays? Very well, let the written record show that former President Donald John Trump was elected Speaker of the House of Representatives by a unanimous voice vote."

(Wild cheering)

Steny Hoyer: "It is with my deep pleasure, and with all of the hopes of the American people, that I turn this gavel over to Donald Trump, Speaker of the House of Representatives."

(Wild applause)

Trump once again, for the second time in this long night, walked to the podium, and once again the entire chamber, Senators and Congressmen, Democrats and Republicans, men and women, white and colored, all rose as one, with a long and sustained and thunderous applause. Trump began: "Thank you. Thank you for your confidence, and we will not let you down. Steny, what is the procedure? May I simply turn this over to the Senate, for the trial in absentia and conviction"? (pause, discussions off mike.)

President Pro Tempore of the Senate, Patrick Leahy, and Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer, both rose, and walked together to the podium. Leahy seated himself, and Chuck Schumer took up the gavel, at the other chamber's podium, in this unprecedented Joint Session of Congress.

Chuck Schumer began: "The Senate will come to order. Will Chief Justice John Roberts please join me at the podium? This has never been done before, at least, not like this. In this nation's history, there have been only about 20 or 21 impeachments of Federal officials by the House, and only two Presidents were actually impeached, but none were convicted, and so there have previously been exactly zero convictions of a President."

Schumer Continued, "We are, by design, skirting a few rules. I am sure that many of you

Page 64 of 121 would have enjoyed a long and lengthy grilling, on the witness stand, as it were, of Biden, Harris, and Garland, and all the rest of them, but I'm not sure that I see the point in it. Constitutionally, this body has sufficient power and discretion in how we apply the basic Article II, Section 4 mandates. However, the burning issue, from a legal trial analogy, is that there are no witnesses for the defense, and in fact we are not allowing the defendants to present any witnesses, or a defense of themselves."

Chuck Schumer continued: "Every Senator understands what we are about to do, and I believe that for the most part, the American people will approve of our actions. With the concurrence of Chief Justice Roberts, I want a simple up or down voice vote, affirming that the Senate understands and accepts what we are about to do, and accepts that these abbreviated methods for these proceedings are legal and necessary."

"Will someone please, by voice, and with a second, offer a resolution declaring that the Senate accepts, that because of urgency and security reasons, we will conduct an en masse trial in absentia"? (pause) "OK, and a second"? (pause) "OK, all those who vote for the resolution, please signify by shouting aye." (pause) "OK, and are there any nays? Very well, let the written record show that the motion passed by a majority on voice vote."

Chuck Schumer continued: "Before we vote to convict and remove, en masse, almost the entire executive branch as well as the imprint that it would have left on the judiciary and the various agencies, please allow me a moment to underscore the obvious about a few things. We've seen some very damning evidence, yet it is incomplete, and by that I don't mean that it is taken out of context, and that Biden and Harris and Garland would be exonerated if you saw it all. Actually, I'm saying exactly the opposite. We haven't been told the source of these spy‐cam videos, but I certainly believe in their authenticity. We've been shown a very tiny fraction of what may be hundreds or thousands of hours of video." (pause) "Can I get some water up here"?

Chuck Schumer continued: "Imagine if you had seen all of the videos? How many crimes did you not see? Further, this "spy‐cam" arrangement must have been in place in only the Oval Office. Just imagine if you could have been the fly on the wall in every Biden or Harris meeting for the entire time they've been in Office. How many more crimes would you have seen? How many fake "do‐gooder" projects were funded, and bilked the taxpayer out of not billions but trillions? Can you imagine the challenge for the new Justice Department, when they start following the money trail"?

Chuck Schumer continued: "I'm not trying to be long‐winded here (laughter) and I know we need to wrap this up, my only point is this: I was a Biden‐Harris supporter, but now that I've been slapped in the face by the truth, and only a small slice of the truth at that, I firmly and honestly believe that we are doing the right thing for America and for

Page 65 of 121 the entire world." (brief applause)

Chuck Schumer continued: "So, are we ready to do what must be done"? "Will someone from the Senate please stand, and make a dual motion… to accept the House of Representatives findings of Impeachment, and to also, on this voice vote, move to convict and remove, en masse, and thus vacate the offices, of all 124 defendants"? I recognize Mitch McConnell for the record. Please, please, no speeches. Can I have a second? OK, I recognize John Thune." (pause.)

Chuck Schumer continued: "Justice Roberts, there hasn't been much of a trial for you to conduct here, but in your opinion, are we there yet? May I now poll the Senate, and take the vote to convict." (pause)

Justice John Roberts spoke: "Yes, there is no reason why you can't proceed, but in order to more closely follow the Constitution, I believe that you've got to do it on a roll‐call vote."

Chuck Schumer briefly conferred off‐mike with Patrick Leahy and General Milley, and looked over the House, and commented: "We weren't exactly prepared for this, but General Milley conveniently had a copy of the Senate roll, from which I will read, and Justice Roberts will tally the votes, and there will be no electronic or written record of who voted which way."

Chuck Schumer began: "When I call your name, please immediately stand, and when I ask "do you vote to convict", please answer either "yes", "no", or "present", with no speeches, no hesitation, and then immediately be seated. Let's begin."

Chuck Schumer continued: "I'm going alphabetically, by State." "OK, first, Alabama." Richard Shelby, that's a "yes". Tommy Tuberville, that's a "yes". …and so it went... "and finally, Wyoming" John Barrasso, that's a "yes". and finally, Cynthia Lummis, that's a "yes".

Chuck Schumer continued: "Keep your seats, remain calm". "Justice Roberts, have you got a final count for us"?

Chief Justice Nancy Roberts spoke: "Yes, 97 of the 100 Senators were in the chamber, and of those 97, ah, 73 voted "yes", and 3 voted "no", and 21 voted "present". The 124 impeached Executives, Federal Officers, Judges, and Appointees are therefore convicted,

Page 66 of 121 and their offices are vacated".

(A sort of rolling murmur filled the House chamber, with only half‐hearted attempts to initiate applause.)

General Milley immediately stepped up to the podium, and taking the microphone, (and acting out the role of a loyal soldier) "Gentlemen, I find myself leaderless, and I would be very much appreciative if you would identify the next person in the presidential line of succession, and swear in that person, without delay."

Chief Justice John Roberts spoke: "I'd like a Bible, and Donald Trump, pretty much in that order" (laughter) (pause)

Senator Jim Risch stepped forward, and worked his way to the podium, and offered a very tattered small pocket edition of the King James Bible to Justice Roberts. "That's definitely a mighty well‐worn little bible", commented Justice Roberts, "is that a hole"? Senator Risch smiled, "yes sir, that's a bullet‐hole, I had that bible in my vest pocket when I was a prosecuting attorney in Idaho. It saved my life." Justice Roberts only replied, "I believe the symbolism is certainly most appropriate."

Chief Justice John Roberts shook Trump's hand as he approached the podium, and in an implied if unspoken ceremonial joining of the U.S. military with this new administration, General Milley held the small bible while Trump placed his left hand on the bible, which curiously fell open to Proverbs 29:14.

Justice John Roberts Spoke: "Donald John Trump, please raise your right hand and repeat after me, I Donald John Trump do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States." Trump repeated the oath, and he followed the proscribed words with an uncharacteristic, "so help me God."

General Milley gave a perfunctory, if not quite earnest salute to his new Commander in Chief. But somehow, for Congress, getting across the finish line was not as exciting as the foreplay, and while the chamber rose and offered an extended applause for President Trump, it somehow felt weak and anti‐climatic compared to the earlier excitement.

President Trump stepped to the podium, took the microphone, and began: "Thank you. Thank you for your confidence in me. As promised, my first act is to nominate General Petraeus as my Vice President."

And so the long evening wound up, with the Senate approving General Petraeus for

Page 67 of 121 Vice President, and Justice Roberts swearing him in, all as scripted. General Milley announced that the Senators and Congressmen could retire to their offices, where their military escorts had set up army cots and bedding, although many of the offices were already appointed with well‐used sofas and fold‐out day beds.

General Milley took Trump to one side, and gave him what would be the first of many "real‐ world" briefings. Although Biden and Harris and Garland, as the primary elected or appointed targets were still contained within the White House, other high‐value and perhaps equally problematic targets had temporarily escaped the net.

General Milley then prepared President Trump for his first Presidential news conference of his second term, or partial term. A few hand‐picked journalists had been led by military guards to the steps of the Capitol, where improvised camera platforms and satellite uplink trucks were ready and waiting. With protection provided by Army Rangers, rather than the Secret Service, a small group emerged to meet the waiting throng of reporters, including President Trump, General Petraeus, John Roberts, General Milley, Patrick Leahy, Chuck Schumer, and Nancy Pelosi.

General Milley introduced "President Donald Trump", and "Vice President David Petraeus" to the throng of reporters, who as one, went from mouth‐agape astonishment to cheering and clapping.

At nearly midnight, Trump began an impromptu news conference as President: "My fellow Americans, these last twenty‐four hours have been exciting, adventurous, and certainly not without dangers. In one fell swoop, America has rescued itself from unspeakable Biden and Harris crimes. The Congress, the Senate and the House, met in joint session today, and the House approved articles of Impeachment, and the Senate voted to convict and remove, essentially the entire executive branch. That includes Biden and Harris, as well as every Federal judge, official, or other appointee who took office under former President Biden."

Trump continued: "Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, who would have been third in the order of succession, and who would have normally become President upon the simultaneous removal of both Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, briefly resigned, and I was elected Speaker of the House by the House of Representatives. Chief Justice John Roberts then swore me in as President of the United States. My first act in office was to nominate General David Petraeus as our new Vice President. General Petraeus was then immediately confirmed by the Senate and sworn in by Justice Roberts. The task that now lies before us is to repair the damage, and to keep our nation strong, and to take our rightful place on the world stage. But we must do so without unnecessary meddling in the affairs of other sovereign nations."

Page 68 of 121 Trump finished with: "We ask all Americans to remain calm, and we ask you to please cooperate as we restore honest and ethical leadership. Thank you, good night, and may God bless America".

General Milley retrieved the red satellite phone from his jacket pocket, and made the call to President Putin. Of course, half a world away, every Russian with a television set had already just seen President Trump's announcement.

Chapter Seventeen ‐ Clean‐Up Day

The President of the United States of America is arguably the most powerful, pampered, and over‐protected person on the planet. With every new president, throughout our nation's history, the power of the Chief Executive has grown and grown virtually unchecked.

The President is also the Commander in Chief, and has authority over the world's most powerful military. The combination of unchecked executive power, and unrivaled military power, has created an "institution", that goes far beyond anything that the Founding Fathers could have ever imagined.

The Founding Fathers viewed the President as a "person", and the Presidency as an "office", but surely not as a secretive and untouchable "institution". President Lincoln was occasionally assigned a soldier as a personal guard during the Civil War, and Roosevelt's presidency, in the opening days of World War Two, ushered in the modern era of Secret Service protection.

Then, little by little, after the Kennedy assassination in 1963, and after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, the President and the Vice President and their families became like cloistered royals, and the city of Washington DC itself became a walled fortress, separating America's royal families from mere commoners.

But even given that historical background, the average person cannot begin to comprehend how impossible it is to actually bring an American President to justice, if he does not want to go quietly. Therefore, the dilemma for General Milley, was how to re‐enter the White House, and transfer power, without giving Biden or Harris airtime, and without leaving blood stains on expensive carpets.

General Milley, his staff, and Vice President Petraeus stood in the Capitol Rotunda discussing this dilemma, barely within earshot of President Trump, who was engrossed in discussion with Patrick Leahy, Chuck Schumer, and Nancy Pelosi.

Page 69 of 121

Sometimes actors and actresses become the person you make of them, they adapt to the role, they bury themselves in the part, and so it was with Trump. He edged away from the conversation with the Congressmen, and he simply asked of General Milley, "am I going to have to check into a Holiday Inn tonight, or what"? (Laughter) "Mr. President, we were just discussing that", acknowledged Milley. Trump responded, "Why don't you let me handle it"? President Trump then laid out a simple plan, and ended with the observation, "if you want me to be the "Iron‐Man", if you want me to be the next George Washington, if you want me to be the moderate who has morphed into a "tough‐love" conservative, then this would be a good time and place for me to start acting as if I'm truly the President, again".

General Milley's aide found a communications officer at the edge of the Capitol communications suppression perimeter, and using an encrypted field radio, he called the HMX‐1 Commanding Officer, Colonel Kevin Wild, who was in charge of the "Marine One" detail. Almost the entire U.S. military had just seen television coverage of Trump's press conference on the Capitol steps, and so there wasn't much to authenticate or discuss.

The electronic net over the White House had blocked all wireless signals, and hard‐ wired military communications and telephone lines had been switched off, but the cable television feed to the White House had not been switched off, and Biden, Harris, and Garland had watched in horror as the news coverage unfolded of President Trump speaking on the Capitol Steps.

The Secret Service detail within the White House also saw the TV news, and they anticipated the change, which most of them secretly welcomed.

Marine One lifted off from Anacostia Naval Annex, made the short flight to the front of the Capitol, and took on board President Trump, General Milley, Patrick Leahy, and Chuck Schumer. Per security protocol, Vice President Petraeus, and his growing security team of Army Rangers remained separate. While in the air, General Milley gave the order to lift the communications barrier around the White House, and in less than two minutes, Marine One would land on the South Lawn.

Foremost on General Milley's mind, during those two minutes, were all of the "what‐ ifs". Mostly, what if Biden did not go quietly, and what if armed agents from the CIA, DHS, FBI, DEA, TSA, FEMA, Secret Service, US Marshals Service ‐ and on and on ‐ what if Biden's hand‐picked loyal cadre, who did not smell the shit, what if they opposed the US Military, and what if they protected Biden? The Congress, with prodding and guidance from the military, had followed the legal procedures required to oust from office a president who had broken many laws. However, that was no

Page 70 of 121 guarantee that Biden and Harris could be removed peacefully.

These last 24‐hours had broken new ground, and made history in so many ways. The impeachment procedure had only been brought against four previous Presidents, and none of those trials in the Senate yielded the required two‐thirds vote for the removal of any of those Presidents from office. This Republic, and its legal system, and its Constitution had never before been tested under fire. We've never told a sitting President that he must step down, and therefore (more to the point at hand) we have never seen what may happen if an Impeached and Convicted President simply refused to step aside, and let his successor take office.

This is precisely why only the military can be called on to execute what amounts to a bloodless coup d'état. Other than the military, no one can force a President from office if he is successfully impeached and convicted. Congress has no enforcement authority, and neither does the Judiciary. All of the Federal "enforcement agencies" are controlled by POTUS/CIC. Other than the Joint Chiefs, who can march into the Oval Office and escort out the impeached and convicted President, and bring in the new President? Under normal circumstances, all enforcement power is directly under the office of the President. The Founding Fathers envisioned that only an honorable man would occupy the Office of the President, and surely an honorable man would humbly step aside if impeached and convicted.

History is replete with legally‐elected leaders who eventually became dictators. In every case, the power‐hungry dictator would see to it that laws were changed, and perhaps a few liberties would be suspended, and the opposition would find itself under increased scrutiny and perhaps under arrest. The established media and entertainment industries would become part of the propaganda machine. Citizens would be under constant observation, and encouraged to be suspicious of one another. The loyalist forces (executive agencies) would stockpile arms and ammunition to prepare for a final defense of power. Those "old" history lessons feel very "right‐now", thought Milley.

So, what will happen in the next few minutes, if Biden refuses to leave office? How quickly would this faux President shed any final pretense of Constitutionality and reveal the true dictator within?

Marine One touched down on the South Lawn, bringing General Milley out of his rather obvious reverie. In an unexpected but heart‐felt gesture, Trump reached over and briefly gripped the General's shoulder, and simply said, "it will be OK". Former President Trump was truly becoming the New POTUS and Commander in Chief, again.

Page 71 of 121 With the communications barrier lifted only two‐minutes before, radio traffic was untested, but the HMX‐1 pilot followed protocol, and announced over the Secret Service radio channel, "Marine One has arrived", and as an afterthought added, "with President Trump on board." The base operator in the White House replied with a reassuring "affirmative".

Given the tense circumstances, and with the Marine honor guards previously removed, there was no one to meet Marine One. General Milley was first to step out of the helicopter, and he gave a hand motion signaling for the others behind him to wait. A laser dot briefly swept across the General's chest from the Secret Service roof top sniper. General Milley cautiously waved to the sniper, who stood, laid down his rifle, and waved an "all‐clear" to the arriving group on the South Lawn. And with that, General Milley, President Trump, Patrick Leahy, and Chuck Schumer simply walked to the door of the White House. An armed Secret Service Agent emerged, and ushered them into the foyer. So far, so good.

General Milley was introduced to the Secret Service "BLOWTORCH" night watch commander and duty officer, Allen Michaelson, who simply commented, "there are potentially a few problems, please come with me." The entourage was led to the Oval Office, and it was as if time had stood still for almost 20‐hours, and there sat Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, former CIA Director Burns, and former Attorney General Garland, all exactly where he left them, but all looking a little the worse for wear.

Joe Biden spoke first, "I cannot even stand to look at you. You "usurper", you son‐of‐a‐ bitch." he screamed, pointing his finger towards President Trump.

Joe Biden was a bad President, and even worse as a person. In private moments, he revealed who he was, and what he was. The intentional and systemic disrespect of Donald Trump by the Biden administration would define this moment, and they would each remember the other as villains. Regardless of which is worse, Biden's crimes, or Donald Trump's occasional hypocrisy, his cool‐headed response to this private insult revealed the character of a professional leader, who believed that he was, in fact, carrying the weight of history. Trump simply responded to Biden by saying, "I have always understood our disagreements, and I have previously respected our differences, but for now, you're sitting in my chair."

With that Biden stood, and angrily kicked the leg of the Resolute Desk, showing his contempt for America and its history.

There were no officially produced videos or transcripts of this meeting, and the American public was left to wonder what it was really like, when General Milley and President Trump confronted Joe Biden in the White House. Months later, a popular

Page 72 of 121 stand‐up comedian would write a tepid script describing his vision of this moment, with a caricature of Biden saying, "you know Trump, there are ten tenets, or articles of faith underpinning the beliefs of all politicians, and the first nine relate to hypocrisy, and I forgot the tenth, but you seem to have mastered all of them well."

Secret Service Commander Michaelson then took Trump to one side, to reassure him that he was safe here, and that everything was being prepared for him. Biden just sort of drifted away silently, and stood in one corner of the office, not knowing quite what to do with himself.

Former A.G. Garland stood by Biden, not really saying anything, and Kamala Harris and CIA Director William J. Burns remained listless on the sofa.

General Milley was not quite prepared for this moment, but he finally asked Commander Michaelson, "I know that the Secret Service is still obligated to protect Biden and Harris, but the problem is this: There are very serious criminal charges pending against Biden, Harris, Garland, and Burns. I need your help. I need the four of them kept someplace safe but locked down and out of the public eye, and they mustn't be allowed to communicate with anyone. Can you do that for me"? Patrick Leahy and Chuck Schumer weighed in at that point, underscoring that Biden and the rest must be held safely, but they mustn't be allowed to escape or cause trouble. Michaelson agreed, and gathered a team of agents, and escorted the "gang‐of‐four" to a holding area just outside the beltway.

Over at Number One Observatory Circle, a similar drama was being acted out on a much smaller scale, with the same uncomfortable and awkward ejections and new installations. The "husband‐wife" of Kamala Harris, Doug Emhoff, was removed, and the home was prepared for Vice President Petraeus.

Chapter Eighteen ‐ An Intense Outreach Campaign

Marketing gurus, and advertising agencies, and public relations firms had a name for it ‐ this was to be an "Intense Outreach Campaign", where Trump.. by phone, FAX, Email, formal letter, private meeting, and news conference ‐ would establish who he really was, take and hold and consolidate power, define his administration, select his staff, and connect with the leaders of the rest of the world.

Trump's first full day in the Whitehouse was occupied with personal needs and cabinet selection planning, and of course he became more familiar with the "men behind the curtain", who would offer supervision from the Heritage Foundation.

Page 73 of 121

On the morning of the second day, Trump summoned the Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak, greeted him warmly, with the intention of asking to schedule a private "thank‐you" call with Russian President Putin. Ambassador Kislyak abruptly offered, "why not speak with President Putin now, he is standing by, waiting your call." Caught a little off‐guard, Trump accepted, and while a White House staffer started the connection, a remotely‐sited State Department translator was brought into a three‐ way call. After the formalities, they began:

Putin: "President Trump, please allow me to be one of the first to congratulate you on your successful re‐taking of the Presidency. America, and Russia, and the entire world are grateful for your wisdom and your peaceful nature."

Trump: "President Putin, we have Russia to thank for stopping what could have been a nuclear crisis, one staged for no reason, and America is deeply in your debt, and I can't imagine how we can repay that debt, although I intend for our nations to be at peace with each other, and to be much closer than before, and we certainly should not initiate unnecessary actions against each other, ever again."

Putin: "President Trump, I was not expecting to ask this of you, at least not this early in our relationship. However, there is the matter of your DEA, which has 83 offices in 82 different countries around the world, and the problem is this ‐ Russian citizens, and friends of Russia, have frequently been targeted by your DEA, often for no reason. If I may ask for a gift, out of friendship, there are some prisoners who we would like for you to release."

Trump: "President Putin, I was actually planning to offer the release of Viktor Bout. Is that who you had in mind"?

Putin: "President Trump, yes, well, you know my mind. Recently, we assembled, but we did not release, information indicating that the DEA's arrest of Viktor Bout in Bangkok, Thailand in 2008, under the Bush administration, which was an illegal entrapment, even under your laws. Additionally, when Viktor's attorneys fought extradition, 2‐years later in the Obama administration, America paid bribes to Thai judges, police, and military, which is illegal under your law, and…"

Trump: "President Putin, you have my assurances, Viktor Bout will be released.. soon."

Putin: "Thank you so much, Mr. President."

Trump: "It will be handled."

Page 74 of 121 Putin: "This is such a positive occasion. I would like to meet you and other American leaders as often as possible, and I would like to create new friendship and increased trade between our two countries."

Trump: "I assure you that America, and the Russian Federation, will be friends again."

Putin: "Thank‐you, and dosvedanya Mr. President".

Trump's assistant clicked off the connection, and it took a few moments for all of it to sink in. The bribes given to Thailand in 2010 were organized by the Department of State ‐ which was then Hillary Clinton's State Department ‐ of course they broke US law, every administration breaks the law.

President Trump had just struck his first international bargain with another world leader in his second term, and he would use his power to free a Russian, beloved by his countrymen, who had fallen victim to DEA entrapment. He liked the feeling of it, the power, the authority.

One‐month later, there would be a media frenzy, as Viktor Bout was released from the United States Penitentiary, Marion, Illinois.

Next on Trump's agenda would be discussions to select his chief of staff, and his cabinet appointments, and the little matter of replacing several Regular and Special Federal Judges, as well as 2‐Supreme Court Justices. Trump's "handlers" would not allow his administration to name special "czars", and that was actually a welcome simplification. Trump's growing group of volunteer "think tank" advisors, specialists, and go‐to men were obviously becoming the King's "privy council", and Trump dare not go against their advice, lest he end up twisting slowly in the wind, from that same "virtual" gallows from which his dark and evil predecessor now hung. Reaching down into third and fourth tier department administrators, many of whom came from the Bush‐43 Administration, temporary "acting" cabinet officers were selected, and the wheels of Big Government continued to turn, with nary a slip nor a wobble.

As an internal matter for the military, again with Trump's rubber‐stamp approval, many of the formerly purged flag rank generals and admirals were reinstated, as if nothing happened.

Almost all of the leftwing "political officers", many of whom held key positions in the armed services, were identified and given general discharges. The CIA would now be much less able to directly intervene in any military action. A review was conducted of almost every black and female officer who earned a promotion during previous administrations. Any of those who were promoted over more capable white male

Page 75 of 121 officers were either discharged or reassigned. The natural order of things would quickly be reestablished within the US Military.

The days and nights in Trump's first week of service were unbelievably full with countless short meetings, held rapidly in succession, and reams upon reams of letters, documents, special authorizations, and Presidential Decrees, which he signed, often without even reading them. One set of documents addressed the "ObamaCare" debacle, and there were letters that simply asked that every Federal agency, and State agency, and insurance company should revert to previous practices, "as if" the Affordable Care Act had never existed. In an accompanying letter to Congress, a detailed request was laid out suggesting that Americans should be compensated for damages which arose from the implementation of Obamacare, including lost jobs, reduced hours, lost insurance, higher premiums, higher co‐payments, and damage to the insurance companies. It would run into the hundreds of billions of dollars.

Then, there was the planning for the show trials, which must proceed without too much fanfare. It was important to quietly convict and lock‐up Biden and Harris and much of their administration ‐ almost the whole of the executive branch and a small‐ slice of the CIA ‐ into life‐sentence prison terms, but without public contact, and without publication of every gory detail or technicality. The Pentagon's press office was chosen as the news source that would slowly leak a few of the Oval Office spycam videos to the public via the usual media whores.

Trump of course wouldn't be directly involved in the trials, but he paved the way with a few "security" directives. Prosecutors and public defenders would be selected, in a grueling process, which had more to do with security background checks than anything else. Finally, it was suggested that the defendants and the trial venue should be moved from Washington, DC, and an Air Force Base in Texas was selected. Biden and team would never be seen again.

Trump was now fully under the control, emotionally and administratively, by a powerful group which included the Joint Chiefs and which also included Nick Creutzfeldt, advisers from the Heritage Foundation, and their growing team of wizards behind the curtains, who would forevermore control the Presidency, and who would also guide the Second Constitutional Convention, which was now becoming a reality.

In a show that would have brought a tear to the eye of any third‐world dictator, Vice President Petraeus, wearing his 4‐star uniform and bedecked in campaign ribbons and medals, addressed the Senate ‐ and led the Senate ‐ not as the stand‐by tie‐ breaker, but as the certain and absolute President of the Senate. Congress wasn't quite prepared for their extended sequestering, but Petraeus and the Joint Chiefs

Page 76 of 121 weren't going to let them go anywhere, or report to their constituents, until the House and Senate met in Joint Session again, and this time they were required to call for a Second Constitutional Convention, with the stipulation that:

(a.) The First Ten Amendments, which had been adopted from the Bill of Rights, were considered sacred, and could not be weakened;

(b.) Over the course of the following year, every single House and Senate seat, all 538 seats, would be declared "vacant" by the 2‐Con‐Con, and the 50‐States must then call for new elections, under whatever new rules would be created;

(c.) There would be a planned and orderly one‐year phase‐out of almost every existing Federal bureaucratic job and Federal benefits program of every kind;

(d.) Every existing Federal law of every kind would sunset at the end of the one‐year transition period;

(e.) Under the New American Government, and under the New United States Constitution, Federal Taxes would be collected from the States, and the budget must be balanced; Milley and Petraeus explained to Congress what the Constitutional Council already had in mind: There would never again be payroll taxes, property or excise taxes or any other special taxes. There would simply be point‐of‐sale value‐ added taxes, and the magic number already agreed upon was 15‐percent, with 8‐ percent divided‐up between State and local governments, and 7‐percent going to the Federal Government. An old report from the Reagan Administration's GAO had shown long ago that 15‐percent, in total, was more than enough for a Government that spent money only on that which is Constitutional;

(f.) A new method would be devised to elect the President and the Vice‐President;

(g.) The current sitting Congress would accept the selection of the Milley‐Trump‐ Creutzfeldt Constitutional Council, as the absolute leadership of the Second Constitutional Convention, with Chief Justice Roberts presiding.

And, so it was done. Congress rubber‐stamped the 2‐Con‐Con, over the squeals and protests of a few black Representatives, who were mostly concerned with the 14th Amendment, Civil Rights, and perpetual Federal government dependency programs.

The Congress didn't quite realize that every ox would be gored... One year hence.. There would no longer be an Agriculture Department, to control what was planted where and when, and to throw crop subsidies at every farmer... There would no longer be "Quantitative Easing", to pump up banks, and fatten the coffers of Wall

Page 77 of 121 Street guys, who should have been jailed after Bear‐Stearns and after the AIG‐ Mortgage Derivatives con job... The States would rule; The Free market would rule, If you liked 1850, you're gonna love 2022.

The last order of business brought before the weary and aching Senate was the task of approving two replacement Supreme Court judges, presented on a letter from President Trump, but read to the chamber by Vice‐President Petraeus. These two judges were only slightly to the right of Attila the Hun... Strict Constitutionalists in the extreme, they were: Justice Raymond W. Gruender, currently a United States Court of Appeals Judge for the Eighth Circuit, and considered by many to be absolutely the most conservative sitting judge on any court; and Justice George Steven Agee, a federal judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit and a former Justice of the Supreme Court of Virginia.

The two selections for judges were approved with little discussion, and the Congressional session was finally declared closed, and after 4 long days without a shave, shower, change of clothes, deodorant, drugs, alcohol, or sex. These Senators and Representatives, these men and women who ineptly controlled the most disorganized and dysfunctional of the three branches of government, were gone and out the door, like school children when the 3:30pm bell rang. It was a twitchy bunch that was finally released, like animals returned to the wild, unsure of where to go and what lies to tell.

As his first week neared its close, Trump began to accept, with a sense of weariness and some regrets, the long daily routine of being controlled, of being led, of being continually introduced to another advisor, clerk, secretary, or "friend‐of‐a‐friend". However, if this was the price of truly "Making America Great Again", then Trump would do it, and he succumbed to being led by the men behind the curtain.

Like clockwork, once every day during this brutal first week, Trump would fix his hair, and read a short prepared speech ‐ before a camera ‐ before no audience. A speech that would later that day be broadcast from the Whitehouse communications office.

Trump had no idea who wrote these things, but they were all little 5‐minute masterpieces, written by someone who knew how to sell, and knew how to control, and knew how to pose a question, and then offer the answer to that question ‐ giving the only logical or available answer. There was the "don't be afraid" speech, there was the "new hope, new economy speech", there was the "don't worry where Biden is, all of the criminals are being comfortably held, and will be fairly tried" speech, and it went on and on, trying to calm the two‐thirds of the nation that was ecstatic to be rid of Biden, and also trying to carefully pacify the remaining one‐third who feared loosing every hand‐out, and every privilege.

Page 78 of 121

Finally, on day five, it had not escaped Trump's notice that blacks were marching and rioting in Detroit, and burning the inner‐city in Stockton, and negroes were attacking Caucasians and Asians in the Chicago suburbs, and the Joint Chiefs had returned the control of every National Guard unit to the Governors of every State. Then, there was the spontaneous and sudden appearance of White, and Asian, and Hispanic militia groups, who were prepared to protect suburbia, businesses, and barrios… with equal fervor. America was ready to burn itself to the ground, ignited from a fire, long smoldering from within.

As if anticipating his questions, and of course also providing the answers, Trump was met by Vice President Petraeus, General Dempsey, Nick Creutzfeldt, and a rising independent business development advisor and writer, Michael Moody, from Atlanta, Georgia.

The subject of Trump's next, no‐nonsense, tough‐love speech, would be… "True equality, in a color‐blind and competitive New America"

Michael Moody, a fast rising young Republican policy maker and writer, was tall, strong, smart, and he had that sort of "Captain America" handsome look about him. It certainly wasn't lost on Trump that Michael Moody bridged the age gap between Millennials and Generation‐Z, and perhaps he was the hope for America's future. The tension hung tepidly in the air as Mr. Moody went over what would become variously known as Trump's "race speech" or "racist speech".

It wasn't Trump's style to challenge the details of one of these speeches, but President Trump, after briefly scanning the long speech, commented that, "while this is all clearly based on obvious truths, it is also the most racist thing that I have ever read."

Michael explained that this speech would not only plainly speak the truth ‐ past truths and future truths ‐ this speech would also serve to contrast Trump to either Obama or Biden or Harris, and to define the new role of the changing Federal government, and yes, the speech must also clearly challenge African Americans to ‐ "get normal, get competitive, or get back to Africa."

Michael Moody further commented: "Mr. President, it's been argued that Barack Obama really was neither an authentic black person nor a normal white guy. Obama was a creation, a sometimes white‐talkin', and a sometimes jive‐talkin' stand‐in for an abstract ideal ‐ the so‐ called "Liberal‐Progressive" ideal. If the black race in America is to survive and prosper in America, it will happen.. but only if blacks learn to think, and live, and walk, and talk like normal Euro‐Americans." Moody continued, "similarly, Biden‐Harris, and the pinko‐commie left wingers have kept blacks dependent, while at

Page 79 of 121 the same time giving them special privileges and unrealistic protection from the real world."

Trump very slowly and very critically read his copy of the proposed speech twice, and then interjected, "Well, Mr. Moody, you write like a serious patriot, and you are of course one‐hundred‐percent correct, and it all must be said and done. But consider that we shouldn't threaten to do anything that we can't deliver. I can tell you this much, many of the brainwashed young people in America will see this as extremism, but most real Americans will accept it, and they will whole‐heartedly accept this brutal honesty. Perhaps we could work on the "race speech" together this evening, soften the delivery, and make it just right. Perhaps prepare it for me to record, early tomorrow."?

The following morning, President Trump recorded this speech, for broadcast later that day: Trump began:

"My fellow Americans, I come before you tonight.. on the sixth day of the second term of my Presidency. I offer myself as the healer of a divided nation. Let's be honest, we are a nation, which is still sharply divided along racial lines. Some of those divisions are artificial. But, quite frankly, in many cases, those divisions are real and necessary."

"The Obama "act" and the Biden "act", and the Harris "act" are hard acts to follow. No President could have been more racially divisive than either Obama or Biden, although I'm sure that the liberal media will report later that I've given it a try tonight. It seems, that no matter what black Americans hear, whether it's Obama's or Biden's racial dishonesty, or my racial honesty, which you will soon hear, no matter what we say, black America is never satisfied."

"There were several moments in the previous administrations, where dishonest Presidents tried to use race as a wedge, or perhaps they tried to use race to further define themselves, and to prove just how far they would go to discriminate in favor of blacks. I never truly understood all of either Obama or Biden's political motivations."

"In my mind, this all started with Obama, when he made a point of applying the power of the Presidency to racial problems. Perhaps the single most racially divisive event, which was taken up personally by Obama, and perpetuated by Eric Holder's Justice Department, and skewed by the popular media, was the death of a teenage black boy in Florida. Yes, I'm talking about the Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman self‐defense incident."

"Tonight, I will illustrate to you how that one incident, and everything that has followed since, from Ferguson to George Floyd, fully defines what black Americans have become, and it also illustrates how fearful and cautious are white, and Asian, and Hispanic

Page 80 of 121 Americans, when they must confront black Americans."

"Since Obama's election in 2008, and reelection in 2012, and Biden's not quite legitimate election in 2020, we've seen a steady progression of black Americans being pampered as never before, and as a direct consequence, blacks have gotten completely out of control, as never before. As I speak to you tonight, there are fires in Stockton, riots in Detroit, and inter‐racial shootings and beatings in every major city in America. It's as if after all of these years, the American Negro feels as if he has the God‐given right to not only take every hand‐out available, but to also totally and completely bite the hand that feeds."

"This black violence, against all of the rest of America, has become such a permanent part of the landscape, it's almost as if there is a 'Black‐Jihad', which has been declared against all of the rest of America, and declared by the black community. The increasing phenomenon of black on white crime, and all‐black "Flash Mobs", and the under‐ reported "Knock‐Out Games", did Black America really believe that there would be no push‐back against the Black‐Jihad"?

"Remember back, if you will, to that day, the 26th of February, 2012, and try to remember all that happened in Sanford, Florida, and all across America on that day. The black community was in a frenzy over Trayvon's death, and race relations were strained further and further, and the news media was finally found responsible for misquoting key elements of the news story. The death of Trayvon Martin was perhaps unfortunate, but the deliberate tarring of the Hispanic community watch volunteer, Mr. Zimmerman, also appeared to be uncalled for."

"What I must call your attention to, using the Sanford, Florida example, is simply the fact that up until today, the Federal government's treatment of racial issues has, since 1865, gone only in one direction ‐ in favor of blacks and against all other races ‐ regardless of the real truth, which in the case of George Zimmerman, was simply that a young Hispanic man rightfully defended himself from a physical attack by a young black man. Regardless of the truth, Federally‐enforced "equality" has been built on lie after lie."

"Where is the equality, where is the truth, where is the fairness"?

"I must ask of black America, did you not realize that at some point, at some "tipping point" in our cultural decline, did it never occur to you that Whites, Asians, and Hispanics would all simply say, "enough is enough", did that never occur to you"?

"You see, if you want equality... then you must become equal, and if you simply can't become equal, then that was the Creator's prerogative, and not America's problem."

Page 81 of 121

"In 2012, after the Sanford event, while the black community was marching, protesting, and looting over one black death, did that same black community look at any of the real race crimes which occurred on that same date? How about a White woman who was abducted and beaten to death by black man in Florida on that same day, February the 26th? How about a White child stabbed to death by an adopted black child neighbor, in an otherwise all‐white neighborhood. Or, a White teen set on fire by a gang of rampaging black youths. Or, a White woman motorist who was run off the road, raped, and beaten to death with baseball bat by a black guy. Or, a White girl who was beaten unconscious on a school bus by five black youths. Or, White pedestrians attacked by gangs of blacks in Baltimore and Philadelphia. I haven't heard the black community's outrage over any of those race crimes, all of which were committed against white and Asian and Hispanic persons, by black persons, all on that same day."

"And now, oh my goodness, poor black America ‐ yeah, I'm being sarcastic ‐ you've lost your favorite President ‐ as if you didn't already have a very special deal, now you are all rioting, again, and this time it's because you have lost Biden and Harris."

"Doesn't it pain black Americans, and shame any of you, at least just a little, now that you know just how criminal were Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, the first President and the first Vice President to ever be successfully impeached, convicted, removed and jailed. How proud are you of that"?

"We are a nation, which is not only racially divided, but we seem to be preparing for some sort of war. Back in 2008, Obama came to office riding a wave of enthusiasm for peaceful rebuilding of race relations, but quite honestly, Obama used race as a wedge, and the wrong people seem to feel "empowered", and now, especially after Biden and Harris, things are worse than ever. If the black community insists on "taking it to the streets", those streets may well turn into a battleground, in a race war, which blacks cannot win, but there will be no other winners either, and only America will surely lose."

"Tonight, I call on all Americans to be tolerant, but to also be realistic. The "non‐black" majority ‐ of Whites, Asians, and Hispanics ‐ will only tolerate so much. I call on all law‐ enforcement, and on all National Guard troopers, to sharply deviate from the previous Administration's rules of engagement. I want the riots to stop tomorrow. Young black males are not an endangered species, and if you catch them rioting, killing, raping, looting, beating, burning, and if you are operating under your State's martial law edict, then I encourage you to do the right thing, and protect the majority from the rampaging minority."

"I've turned to a famous military leader for an inspirational quote that I will share with

Page 82 of 121 you. I believe that it was General Curtis LeMay who said, "If you kill enough of them, they will stop fighting."

"As we work over these next few days to bottle up and contain these short‐term disorders, we must also seek a long‐term final solution to the inherent problems, and we must learn to speak honestly about race, and gender, and age, and disability, and all of these other "off‐limits" topics, from which we have been constrained for so long, because of so‐called political correctness."

"As you know, we are currently undergoing a process where the Congress has called for and authorized a Second Constitutional Convention, and they have authorized a special Constitutional Council to select the most qualified delegates from each of the fifty States."

"Within one‐year from now, it is quite likely that there will not exist a 14th Amendment, nor a Civil Rights Act of 1964. Real equality ‐ true equality ‐ will be color‐ blind in a competitive New America."

"Let me say it in a different way, in a color‐blind and competitive New America, if you are truly equal, then you don't need affirmative action. On the other hand, if you really aren't equal, then it is unfair to the rest of us. It's unfair to America for the least‐ qualified to be preferentially given scarce resources and scarce jobs."

"We live in a nation, which in recent years, has praised diversity, merely for the sake of diversity, rather than praising quality, and skill, and loyalty to our Country. How about if we ask all of those normal Americans, who have been victims of "flash mob riots", and the "knock‐out game", how do you suppose those real Americans feel about all of that diversity"?

"Why has it never occurred to Black Americans, that perhaps the rest of us would treat you, as if you were our equal, if your behavior, and appearance, and language, and values were in fact "equal", and "normal". Why hasn't that sunk in? Let me give you a real example of that. I must ask Black America, do you really think, that your children are going to get job interviews, and get a job, after we process them through those all‐ black inner‐city diploma mills ‐ at the tax‐payer expense ‐ do you really think they will even get the interview, if you give them, at birth, an "identifiable" black name, like one of those God‐awful made‐up names, like Tayshaun, or Trevell? Why do you black Americans do your best to act, live, look, and sound "different" than the Euro‐American mainstream, and do it in the most abrasive of ways, and then you still expect us to treat you equally"?

"Too many black Americans look, act, and behave as if they are from another planet,

Page 83 of 121 not just another continent. Honestly, if these rampaging young black men can't be convinced to put away their knives, and bricks, and guns and firebombs, then honestly, for the protection of the majority, we will remove any minority, which is Hell‐bent on continually presenting a danger to the rest of us."

"Lastly, I call on every race‐baiting black leader ‐ you know who you are ‐ the ones who have made a career out of promoting racial division ‐ you've got about 48‐hours to bring "your people" back under control. The Joint Chiefs have already released control of each State's National Guard back to the Governors. I call on these black leaders to do what is best for America, not what is best for their own vanity or popularity."

"Thank you and good night."

[ ..Trump was visibly shaking after recording the third and final take of his "race speech". Imagine, he thought to himself, all of those years that previous Presidents had pandered to every black interest and black cause, and in the end it cost Trump his reelection, which should have been his in the 2020 election cycle. America paid the cost for several years of the ruinous Obama black administration, and the Biden‐ Harris follow‐on was almost worse. It would take a few more years to undo all of the damage that blacks had done to America, since 1964 ‐ or since 1861 ‐ depending on how you assign blame. But, honestly, Trump couldn't bring herself to really "hate" black people. That's like hating a Pit Bull, because he's not naturally as smart and disciplined as a German Shepard. It's not the dog's fault. America's black problem was the fault of white politicians, for creating a culture of excessive tolerance and total dependency.]

Chapter Nineteen ‐ Cold Warriors' Reprise

Trump was shaping up as the most controllable "conservative" President since either Eisenhower or Reagan. In his beginnings, in his youth, Trump was a "Moderate Democrat", and he still truly understood both sides, and that was just part of the beauty of having Trump as America's leader.

Some people (some politicians and business leaders) have the right magnetism, and the right audience‐appeal, and they develop a cult‐like following, and so it was with Trump. Only someone like Trump, (who had brokered deals his entire life) only someone like Trump could fully use the "event" of his re‐taking power to underscore just how bad it all was. Only a reformed fence‐straddler like Trump could tell the truth about black culture in general, and also tell the real truth about the Obama and

Page 84 of 121 Biden Presidencies in particular.

Telling the truth, and saluting the flag, and praising the military, and obeying the Constitution, became a full time job for Trump. There were almost daily events, where in brief ceremonies, he would welcome back high ranking Generals and Admirals that Obama or Biden had discharged.

Leading up to the reception of Putin, wherein the Russian President would personally escort Viktor Bout back to Russia, the US Military slowly released more and more information about the Kaliningrad incident and the Missouri. There were double agents in every game, and a special award was requested for Lt. Cmdr. Brandon Todd.

Biden's CIA had infiltrated many military commands, and it would later be revealed that Todd had once been approached by a CIA operative, and was offered the opportunity to become one of Biden's politruk‐style political offers. Todd played along, while also reporting the incident to his Commanding Officer ‐ Cmdr. Michael Luckett.

Biden's agents didn't know that Lt. Cmdr. Todd was an "Oath Keeper", and he was personally interested in putting a stop to the Biden purge of high ranking white officers. So, on the day when the White House was locked down, and when the Joint Chiefs ordered Cmdr. Luckett to take the Missouri back to port, there was a secret counter‐order issued from a CIA operative, who was loyal to Biden. The second in command, Lt. Cmdr. Todd, received, but of course ignored the counter‐order, and the boat returned to port.

In his personal Letter to Congress, wherein President Trump recommended Lt. Cmdr. Brandon Todd for the Congressional Medal of Honor, he noted that he was "A native of Texas, who had graduated in 1999 from Georgia Institute of Technology with a Bachelors in Chemical Engineering, and that Todd later earned a Masters in Organic Chemistry from the University of Georgia, and he was commissioned at Officer Candidate School in Pensacola, Florida. Prior to his naval service, he served as an artilleryman in the U.S. Army. Therefore, Trump noted (trying to sound like one of the boys) Commander Todd was therefore part Yellow Jacket and part Bulldog with a Gator tail, and adding to his confusion, he had first served in the Army and then finally in the Navy, but when it came time to know which orders to follow, he was not at all confused."

Trump was learning to play the game, and every time he got even close to a uniform, he saluted, and he was gathering caps and jackets and honorary trinkets given to him from every branch of the service. He was truly becoming a reformed "Serious President".

Page 85 of 121 The Putin event, just one‐month into Trump's second term, would re‐shape the entire world for centuries to come, but the pundits and prognosticators frequently miss these things, and no one saw it coming. There was not much CIA or NSA intel coming out of Russia, and all of the US Military and G‐2 guys figured that Putin just wanted a photo‐op, in order to play the role of the Russian hero of the Republic, rescuing the popular folk hero Viktor Bout from the old cold war foe ‐ simply a point of nationalistic pride.

But it would be more than just regaining pride and saving face, and Putin was every bit as big of a narcissistic psychopath as Obama or Biden or Harris, and also as much of an opportunist as Trump. So, when re‐instated House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Leader Patrick J. Leahy sat down and discussed "how can the Congress suck up some face time, welcoming Putin", the idea of course came to them. They would invite Putin to speak before a Joint Session of Congress, which would normally have been about as likely as Stalin inviting Truman to speak before the Soviet Politburo in 1945, but it happened, and once the invitation was out there, neither the Joint Chiefs nor the President could turn off that process.

I guess Americans are flexible. Pre‐Civil War, we knew that Africans weren't quite like the rest of us, who came voluntarily from Europe and Asia to tame the American frontier. Then, post‐Civil War, America back‐slid into Hell, and we were taught to accept blacks as equals. Now, post‐Obama‐Biden‐Harris, America would again be allowed to hear the real truth, that races, which evolved separately, over a very long period of time, were of course very different in every way.

Similar to racial realism, America is on that same sort of pendulum in regards to Russia. America was the USSR's ally against Germany in two world wars. Then, flipping it all around, post‐1945, Americans had been taught to distrust the Russians, during the so‐called "cold‐war". There was perhaps good reason to not trust them, given the history of the cold war. But the American people are resilient, and flexible.. and so post‐Ronald Reagan, and post the Soviet collapse, we again gave our friendship to the new Russian Republic ‐ until Biden's CIA handlers needed an enemy ‐ and a rogue nuke in order to promote disarmament.

So, for the first time since Roosevelt's meetings with Joe Stalin, a Russian President and an American President just might agree on how to carve up the world. Not simply a Potsdam conference on how to redraw the boundaries of Eastern Europe and Germany post‐1945, but honestly, a total realignment of nations could be on the table. Putin had the vision but no one else saw it coming.

There had never before been anything like Putin's arrival in America, and his subsequent speech before the US Congress. No other moment in history quite

Page 86 of 121 compares to what happened. There were of course multiple layers of security, and a brilliantly orchestrated arrival in New York City at JFK Airport. Putin tried to out‐ perform even the massive level of waste exhibited when Americans fly Air Force One, together with numerous cargo planes, to far‐off overseas destinations.

Putin arrived in his personal plane, and first spoke at JFK, while Russian cargo planes landed in the background and disgorged and readied several helicopters. Then, as you would expect of a man's man, and like a scene right out of Red Dawn, Putin personally piloted a Kamov Ka‐50 as the lead helicopter, while being followed by three Kamov Ka‐60's. It was a moment that would make every frustrated American male tell his wife, or his boss, or his Congressman: "go fuck yourself, real men are in charge of the world today."

It was brilliant, and no one saw it coming, and Journalists couldn't say enough about how Putin personally brought strength and vigor to his Presidency. The New York Times elevated Internet‐style political‐cartooning to front‐page stuff, by contrasting an old picture of Joe Biden, slumped over and barely able to walk, to that day's photo of President Putin ‐ wearing an aviator's helmet and sunglasses ‐ with the caption over Biden: "when America elects this" and then the caption over Putin's photo "we learn how to receive a real leader, as if he's come to inspect his newest colony."

Yeah, well, little did the New York Times know, but they got it right, finally.

Putin's four helicopters were of course led and trailed by US Military helicopters and the entire group set down precisely at Joint Base Anacostia‐Bolling, where they were met by State Department limousines, and personally greeted by the Russian Ambassador, and Vice President Petraeus, and Senate Leader Patrick J. Leahy. The long line of limousines and armored escort vehicles made the trip to the Capitol, where a small podium was set up on the Capitol steps, and Putin and the growing entourage were warmly met by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, General Milley, and also by President Trump.

No one was standing on protocol, and it was like a meeting of old friends. Putin said a few words, and everyone went into the rotunda, with most of the press allowed to follow close behind, in a semi‐orderly fashion. This event would be milked by all sides, and the media frenzy would almost spin out of control. Speaker Pelosi had to excuse herself, and scurry ahead, to follow all of the protocol of time‐honored traditions.

But there would be some changes from protocol, allowing for "two" Presidents to enter into the House chamber simultaneously. First, the members of the House were gathered in their seats for this unprecedented joint session. Then, Vice President

Page 87 of 121 Petraeus and members of the Senate entered and took their assigned seats. Next, the Sergeant at Arms announced the Diplomatic Corps, the Chief Justice of the United States, John Roberts, the Eight Associate Justices, and the Temporary Cabinet Officers, and the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

After everyone was seated, and after a suitable pause, President Trump, and President Putin walked towards the door to the chamber, and waited. The Sergeant at Arms announced, as never before, "Mister Speaker, the President of the United States, Donald J. Trump, and the President of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin" ! !

Everyone stood... everyone shouted and clapped and cheered. It was pure pandemonium, and there wasn't a dry eye in the house. This was perhaps the most emotional moment since Roosevelt entered the chamber on December the 8th, 1941.

Congressmen and photo opportunities go together like wild dogs and raw meat, and those Senators and Representatives nearest the aisle pushed, and shoved, and squeezed their way towards Trump and Putin. Cameras were rolling, and this was good stuff, in America, and in Russia, pretty much worldwide. Well, maybe China and North Korea didn't like it, but regardless, it was truly an unparalleled historical moment.

It took almost fifteen minutes, an unprecedented delay, for the two Presidents to shake, or at least touch, every extended hand, and finally make their way to the podium, and then to sort out who was going to stand where.

Breaking from protocol, Speaker Pelosi took the microphone, and spoke briefly, not only to introduce the two Presidents, but to also comment on the historical significance of the moment, and to thank President Putin for accepting the Congressional invitation.

Trump was given the podium, and he began: "Madame Speaker, Mr. Vice President, Members of Congress, fellow citizens: I wish to thank the Congress for assembling this Joint Session, and for inviting President Putin, so that he may directly address you, and the American people. This has never before been done, but perhaps we have never been so grateful for the efforts of another nation. Let it be said, from this moment forward, that the United States of America, and the Russian Federation are no longer rivals for power but are instead partners for peace and progress. My fellow Americans, please warmly welcome the President of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin."

There was another five minutes, at least, of standing ovations and wild cheering. President Putin stood, and reached out to Trump, and gave him the full Russian bear hug treatment, complete with a slap on the back. Again, there wasn't a dry eye in the

Page 88 of 121 house.

Putin and his translator took the podium. Putin was also a master of the theatrical pause, but it was more like he was respectfully waiting for the audience to be silent. Always expect the unexpected with Putin, and nudging his translator away from the microphone, he spoke in halting and broken English: "Thank you. There is so much to say, and I know you not expect this. I once had a Chemistry professor, and he told me that a final exam is not such a good time to experiment. Well, tonight, maybe I experiment just a little, with my new learning of English, and also I want to find where we go with this new friendship, but maybe my voice not too good for this." (gentle laughter, applause)

In a type of subtlety, that worked so well for Putin, he achieved, in those few words of broken English, to convey that he could be human, humble, and honest, and America would swallow it all, hook, line, and sinker.

[ turning to his translator, Putin spoke a few words to her, and she seemed honestly surprised, over whatever was about to unfold ]

Putin's translator spoke: "I had an approved version of a speech, that your Department of State had already approved, but President Putin wishes that I deviate from that, somewhat, and with your permission, I will translate what President Putin wishes to say, spontaneously, and from his heart. May we proceed"? (applause, approval)

[ slowly, in succession, a few sentences at the time, President Putin spoke extemporaneously in the Russian language with no notes, no teleprompter, and his translator repeated in English. ]

Putin's translator began: "I'm not sure whether this actually comes from some old proverb or maybe some Hollywood writer just made it up because it sounds good, but there is this old saying: "Whenever someone saves another's life, he's responsible for him forever", well, I believe that Russia and America have come to each other's aid so many times in history, that perhaps it's time we negotiated some mutual pacts, and gave some formality and commitment to those high ideals."

Putin's translator continued: "What we propose, is nothing less than creating a continual dialogue, and a continual process, which will lead to an economic union between Russia, the United States, and other partners. Europe has the European Union, and we can learn from what they did right, and from what they did wrong. Imagine, if you will, if we combined all of the industrial might, and economic power, and the natural resources, available to our nations"?

Page 89 of 121 Putin's translator continued: "In this economic union, we could completely develop the polar regions, and the northern regions, and bring water down to America's parched mid‐west farmlands and western lands. There is enough oil, natural gas, and other resources to drive our economies for hundreds of years. Imagine, if the Middle East were not quite so important, imagine if a union of the United States, Russia, and Canada operated as net exporters of oil, natural gas, coal, metal ores, wheat, and timber. Can you imagine the growth, the wealth, the jobs"?

Putin's translator continued: "We stand ready to help America, so that every nation in this new union can enjoy growth and prosperity. I must ask you, when is the last time, here in America, when you issued permits and built a major hydroelectric dam? Or a steel mill? Or a nuclear power plant? Or a petrochemical refinery? Or a gasoline refinery? Or a pulp and paper mill"?

Putin's translator continued: "Consider what has happened, from 2008 until now, with printing money, and the so‐called quantitative easing, and the bail‐outs.. Imagine if you had allowed outside partners, in 2008 and 2009, to help America? Perhaps AIG would have been acquired by Lloyds, with no bailout dollars spent. Perhaps some of your banks would have been bought out by the large European and Asian banking consortiums, again with no taxpayer bailout."

Putin's translator continued: "Instead of bail‐outs, what if that same government investment had gone into infrastructure, on a grand scale, and also what if some of that same public money had been lent, not given, for investment into basic job‐creating enterprises ‐ mines, and mills, and factories, and farms. Imagine if all Americans could have high wage jobs again, in real industries"?

Putin's translator continued: "America has a unique culture of inclusion, but in my opinion, I believe that at some point, you must close your doors to the least able, and allow entry to only the most qualified, who will fully assimilate, and accept your language, your culture, your laws, and your values."

Putin's translator continued: "I believe that America can no longer wait for the best of the best to arrive, as before, at Ellis Island. In my opinion, America could prosper, and normalize her culture, by way of selective immigration. Perhaps it would be better if America allowed only the best of the best to enter your great nation, actively recruit from Europe and Asia."

Putin's translator continued: "I tell you this.. by our example. In Russia live Russians. Any minority, from anywhere, if he wants to live in Russia, to work and eat in Russia, then he should speak Russian, and should respect the Russian laws. If they prefer Sharia Law, just for example, then we advise them to go to those places where that's the state

Page 90 of 121 law. Russia does not need minorities. Minorities need Russia, but we will not grant them special privileges, or try to change our laws to fit their desires, no matter how loud they yell discrimination."

Putin's translator continued: "Russia learned from the "cultural‐suicides" of England, Holland, and France, and you are only just now fully waking up to it here in America. We know that if Russia is to survive as a nation, we must preserve our culture, religion, tradition, and language. The Russian customs and traditions are not compatible with the lack of culture or the primitive ways of some minorities. We learned, and we encourage America to learn and to preserve her internal strengths, which have come primarily from a European heritage."

Putin's translator continued: "I encourage you, when President Trump leads you, and when this honorable legislative body considers creating new laws, and when your Second Constitutional Convention meets, I encourage you to keep in mind your national interest first, observing that many of the minorities do not bring to you the same strengths as Euro‐Americans, and Asian‐Americans."

Putin's translator continued: "I predict, that in not less than two years hence, America will once again have a strongly robust industrial and agricultural economy. You will lead the world, with your mines, and mills, and factories, and farms."

[ Quickly turning to his translator, Putin spoke a few words to her, and he once again nudged her away from the microphone.]

Putin himself spoke: "I want this alliance, with Russia and America working together, in a new partnership. I propose that we should economically join Russia, and the entire of the Americas, and also your Asian partners, South Korea and Japan, into one "Northern Alliance" cooperative."

Putin continued speaking: "We will do this together. The strength of the Bear and the Eagle, together as never before. We are not enemies, we are brothers and sisters, and we must unite. You Congressmen, go back home and tell your constituents this story. Tell them that the strength of the Russian Bear, and the agility and wisdom of the American Eagle are joined, and there will be wealth, and prosperity."

Putin continued speaking, closing with: "Do you believe in yourselves? Do you believe that America can still be strong? Do you want peace and prosperity, as never before? Then stand with me. Join with your wise new President and me. Thank you, Thank you" ! !

There was a long and thunderous standing‐ovation. A few black representatives

Page 91 of 121 stood, but did not applaud. More than a few of the Congressmen, who were personally stunned and shaken by this Russian anti‐diversity "lecture", had wanted to boo parts of Putin's speech, but they restrained themselves, largely because many of them had also watched news broadcasts in real time on their tablets and smart phones, noting the continual media broadcast of instantaneous positive reactions from media‐assembled focus groups.

Putin had cleverly and strongly reached out to the American working class, to real Americans. The focus groups instantaneous "positive" responses were off the chart, and every politician with half a brain would include his own rousing version of Putin's words in subsequent speeches for the folks back home. Immediately, the tee‐ shirt and bumper sticker industry included the theme "mines, mills, factories, and farms" in their messages and so did the New York Times, noting that. "Putin could teach us a thing or two."

In the near‐term, there would be gifts exchanged, and deals made. President Putin knew how to seduce America's allies, and in one of the first unexpected moves, Russia invited Japan to negotiations, which would culminate with the return of the Sakhalin Islands back to Japan.

Yeah, China and North Korea certainly didn't like this new partnership between the Bear and the Eagle, but this love‐in was unstoppable, and President Trump directly benefited, and his public opinion ratings soon exceeded 80‐percent, an unexpected rating, which would soon approach the 90‐percent approval rating that Bush‐43 earned in the days immediately following 11‐September‐2001. War always galvanized American public opinion behind the Commander in Chief, but this was perhaps the first time that peace and prosperity had unified most Americans behind a President, and Trump and the wizards behind the curtains would milk it for all that is was worth.

Chapter Twenty ‐ Two‐Con‐Con

The Second Constitutional Convention was authorized and called for by an overwhelmingly liberal Congress, which was now swinging from liberal to moderate, and from moderate to conservative. That same Congress, which had been impotent and paralyzed by Biden‐Harris a few months before, was now hammering out tough legislation, and even went so far as to reform the old "House Select Committee on Un‐ American Activities". America was being reborn.

This Convention would be guided and driven by Americans who were educated, who worked, and who firmly believed that a very limited Federal government should only

Page 92 of 121 be capable of providing political and economic stability in a nation, which was a collection of States, and those States and their peoples, who had a right to their diverse regional interests, would come together and create a Federal government because they wanted to and needed to.

America's original fight for freedom, in 1776, had been both practical and experiential. All of the nation's original struggle for structure and unity, from 1776 to 1789, would be preserved in this 2‐Con‐Con. The doctrines of scholars, and the writings of Madison and Jefferson would be challenged with the practical necessities of a reborn nation, resulting in a balanced blend of pragmatism and principle, creating the Second Constitution of the United States of America.

Nothing in the Articles of Confederation, or in the Bill of Rights, proscribes the exact and precise details, according to which the first Constitutional Convention was conducted, or according to how this Second Constitutional Convention would be conducted.

Congress, while in the previous "military‐sequestered" session, called for the convention, established general limitations, and approved the convention council. The 2‐Con‐Con Governing Council was controlled by a triumvirate consisting of Nick Creutzfeldt, and General Milley, and Colonel Bob Killebrew. Its members included Peter J. Barris, Stephen Friedman, Howard E. Cox, Gen. Charles G. Boyd (Ret) USAF, Anita K. Jones, Paul G. Kaminski, Dr. Elisabeth Paté‐Cornell, John N. McMahon, Jon Symonds, John Chisholm, and George Tenet. Military advisors included General Milley and Vice President Petraeus. Chief Justice John Roberts "presided over" the entire convention, and he would rule on every procedure and point of order.

The council met and devised its own rules for how it would invite, vet, and select the delegates from each of the 50‐States. It was finally agreed that each State and its political parties would be given three weeks to offer its selection of six delegates per State, and from those six, two from each State would be selected as delegates, and two as alternates, and two would be rejected. It was recommended that each Governor should accept two names each from that State's Republican Party, Democratic Party, and an Independent Party.

Any State, which chose to not participate, would not lose its direct right to participate, and the council would simply directly select from its own pre‐vetted list for that state. In reality, intermediaries close to the Convention Council had already given "suggested" names to each State's political parties. So, there was quite a bit of incest behind the curtains, in what should have been a more pure process.

The invitations went out by Email and courier to every Governor and party leader in

Page 93 of 121 every State, and the announcements were also made available for print media journalists to publish and for the online media to post in blogs and forums. The rules for vetting were rigorous. Every delegate must pass the council's basic requirements criteria, including: ‐ American by birth, both jus soli and jus sanguinis. ‐ At least age 35 ‐ No felony record ‐ Never received public assistance ‐ Verifiable record of either military service or meaningful civilian service. ‐ Able to pass a battery of tests ‐ IQ of at least 110 ‐ Perfect scores on the council's history and civics exam ‐ Must clearly speak, read, and write standard American English.

Perhaps considered odd, by some standards, the vetting rules did not place direct limits on health, appearance, sexual orientation, or substance use or abuse. Consequently there were a few colorful delegates.

Creutzfeldt, Milley, and Killebrew had to agree, at least two out of three of them, on each Delegate selection. General Milley and Vice President Petraeus had the power of absolute discretionary rejection of any proposed delegate, for any reason or no reason.

Except for California, the 50‐States were eager to participate, and 49 of the 50 States met the deadline. The council selected its own two‐delegates and two‐alternates from California, and a place and time and date was declared for the Convention, and the 100‐delegates, and the 100‐alternates were thus selected.

There was no budget for this, but between the US Military and the executive branch, an interesting place was selected. Years ago, the old Naval Air Station Glynco, near Brunswick, Georgia, was closed, and then FLETC, the "Federal Law Enforcement Training Center", had been created on the same landscape of blimp hangers, runways, warehouses, on‐base housing, pine trees, saw palmetto, sand, and swamps.. The base was quickly emptied out, except for all of the security and service contractors. One of the largest training centers, with its open arena, became the makeshift Convention Hall, and the many on‐base dormitories easily housed all of the delegates, alternates, and news crews.

And so they came to Brunswick, Georgia, to the Golden Isles. Professors and politicians, attorneys and engineers, iron workers and electricians, farmers and shop keepers, contractors and small business owners. They came, and they were both a colorful and an impressive group, and it showed, my, did it show.

Page 94 of 121

The delegates were all eager to express both their first and second amendment rights, and while most of the delegates dressed in simple business suits, quite a few created their vision of "period costumes", and wore buck skin with beaver hats, or old fashioned long dresses, or proudly wore their military uniforms. But regardless of costume, they were sincere, they were proud to be a part of this moment in history, and they came.

Many of the delegates carried and openly wore ever manner of firearm, and more than a few photo ops were created by an impressive looking older gentlemen from Kentucky, who had dressed in deer hide, wore an authentic coon skin cap, and carried a flintlock rifle. The demographics were obvious, and not really worth mentioning. The 100‐delegates included 73 men and 27 women. Ethnically, 89 of the 100 described themselves as Caucasian, 1 as Native American, 7 as Asian, and 3 as Hispanic.

The meeting began on the first day, with a solemn Christian invocation led by a retired Bible Baptist missionary and minister, Charlie Ross, who would subsequently officiate in that service at the opening and closing of each day's meetings: "Dear Lord, I beg your inspiration and approval, and with this prayer, we ask the assistance of Heaven, and we ask for your blessings on these deliberations, we pray for your hand to guide us. Amen."

And so it began. The first day was consumed with introductions, procedural questions, and with the assignment of committee memberships. The Constitutional Council had created numerous committees, each of which would deliberate, and report out of committee their recommendations. It was intended that every point of the Preamble, and the Articles, and of the strengthened Ten Amendments would be voted up or down by the entire 100 delegates, with a two‐thirds vote, 67 votes, required to pass. It was also agreed that the final document must be "legalized, approved, and implemented" by a three‐fourths majority, 75 votes.

The second day was spent in a lengthy and exhausting open forum, sort of a philosophical discussion about nations, and duties, and obligations, and what it means to be a citizen ‐ voluntarily a citizen ‐ in a free republic. The fundamentals were reviewed. For the first time in over a half‐century, perhaps men like Jack Kennedy and Ronald Reagan would have been proud of their countrymen. There were serious discussions wherein the delegates attempted to identify: What do free men owe to their country, and what does the Union owe in return, to the States and to the free men?

Can free men and free States be members of a Union, to which they do not contribute,

Page 95 of 121 or must they surely contribute to the support of the Republic, as the high price of membership? The statehood and personhood equivalent of "divorce" was a heated topic beaten to death in these open discussions. Why can't citizens more easily renounce their citizenship, and simply leave America? Why can't the States more easily reshape, or reform, or even secede? And, can a state be a state, but at the same time be "more" than a state? Can the Lone Star State really become the semi‐ autonomous free and independent Republic of Texas, but still also be a State? How does that work?

Then, turning it all around, the unpleasant subject of "forced expulsion" was discussed. If the Union has the right to grant statehood, then why shouldn't the Union have the right to divorce the Republic from a State, and cleave it away from the Union, like cutting off a boil, which has become cancerous? Similarly, why shouldn't it be easier to take American citizenship away from criminals, traitors, deviants, miscreants, and those who simply refuse to fit into what should be primarily a Euro‐ American and an Asian‐American culture?

It certainly wasn't lost on this group that "voting", in a pure democracy, wasn't the same as "representation" in a structured republic, and "voting‐rights", as misapplied from 1964, was the reason why Obama was "popularly" elected in 2008, and fraudulently re‐elected in 2012, and Biden‐Harris fraudulently elected in 2020.

Should everyone have the right to vote? It was agreed that America would have more qualified candidates, and better‐qualified leaders and decision‐makers, if only we had better‐qualified voters. Perhaps not everyone should have the right to vote. Perhaps we should take the vote away from people who cannot make useful contributions to our Republic.

The argument was put forth: The future of democracy in America must include the concept of taking voting rights away from people who don't accept responsibility for democracy, and who don't contribute to the Republic.

It was suggested that only real workers, who compete in the real market place, should be allowed to vote. Back at the dawn of our Republic, when America was a European‐dominated primarily agrarian culture, we were strong. Back in the good old days, only the landed gentry could vote in America. That restricted Democratic decision making to those persons who were plantation owners. Those who created the economy made the rules. But now, in modern America, we have foolishly given away the vote (and a free ride) to those who make no meaningful contributions.

The delegates agreed that either there should be a battery of tests and barriers, including age, IQ, financial responsibility, and civics knowledge, before individual

Page 96 of 121 citizens can earn the privilege to vote in Federal elections. Or, perhaps it's simpler to allow the States to vote in Federal elections. Only the State Legislatures should vote for Federal offices, not every individual.

The "take‐away" discussion continued and became heated ‐ It was put forward that citizens who either do not participate, or do not compete, or do not contribute financially by working and paying taxes, or who are inherently poor decision makers, or who are anti‐American should not vote. An example was offered: Here in America, perhaps we should take away the vote from anyone who has a "Guaranteed Job" or a "Guaranteed Income", and therefore no longer has to be competitive in the market place.

Perhaps the people who should lose their vote in contemporary America must include those people who have a guarantee and/or a free ride. Perhaps career government employees (with exception to the military) should not be allowed to vote. How about Tenured Professors?

Academic tenure creates a hostile and counter‐productive atmosphere. In the New American Republic, perhaps untenured professors can vote, but tenured professors cannot. There are other forms of tenure including about ten‐million government and postal employees who previously couldn't be fired. Many unions have lifetime employment for their Union Bosses but not for their rank and file working members.

It was noted that people who accept tenure in their work are de facto placing their lives outside the mainstream of our democratic society. Perhaps they should have nothing to say about the governance of the tens of millions of their fellow citizens who have real lives with workplace uncertainty and revenue uncertainty. The tenured elites can't understand and identify with their fellow citizens. It is more than rhetorical to ask why a welfare‐sucking citizen, who is exempt from the challenges of the work‐a‐day world, should have the right to vote on another citizen's taxation and on his welfare.

Obviously, there were many heated issues, and finally, it was agreed, unqualified voters beget unqualified politicians. But it was also agreed that most of the details of who should be allowed to vote, should be left to each State.

The general consensus of the group discussion reached a simple and singularly‐ powerful conclusion, and then it was agreed, simply this ‐ there would be no more popular voting in Federal elections, never again. And, if that weakens the political parties, then so be it. If that takes money away from the media whores and the advertising agencies, then so be it.

Page 97 of 121 John Adams warned of "factions", and he was right. If all political parties and all popular candidates and all voting existed at only the local and the State level, then we just might have more uniquely regional and independent political parties.

The third day began with more impassionate speeches, and a few final policy discussions that must involve the entire convention.. then committees began meeting on the fourth and fifth days, and by the sixth and seventh days, a routine was set. Committees would meet every morning, and recommendations would then report out of committee, and be heard by the full convention in the afternoon and immediately voted up or down.

By the end of the seventh day, there was exactly "zero" successes to post on the stadium sized scoreboard, which had been erected in the FLETC training auditorium. All of the first sets of recommendations from each committee were returned to the committees, with a less than two‐thirds required vote.

Finally, realizing that a "whole‐cloth" approach simply was not working, the council presented a different vision of how to guide the process. A starting point, a so‐called "re‐boot" point of approximately 1850 was selected. Printed and electronic copies were distributed, illustrating how the Preamble, the Seven Articles, and the first Twelve Amendments looked in 1850. The committees were instructed to work from that point forward, and finally some progress was made. Slowly, all of the following diverse recommendations emerged from the various committees, and each was approved by the full convention, and each would later form the bits and pieces of subsequent amendments.

FORMAT: It was agreed that accompanying the wording of any new or existing Amendment, that there must also exist a "Constitutional Concordance", showing in extended plain language the intent of the Amendment, perhaps with one or more examples.

BASIS: It was agreed that the basis and starting point of the Second Constitution of the United States shall be the old Preamble, the Seven Articles, and the first Twelve Amendments, as existed circa 1850. Other features from later Amendments shall be noted and included as appropriate.

PERSONHOOD and CITIZENSHIP: It was agreed that "automatic" citizenship would only be conferred on persons born on US soil to two US citizen parents. Congress is instructed to create Immigration Courts, which will have the power to both confer citizenship, as well as remove citizenship from any person. Congress will establish a definition of Unsuitable Persons, and create a method for rescinding citizenship and removing Unsuitable Persons.

Page 98 of 121

STATEHOOD: It was agreed that New States would be admitted into the Union with either a majority of its popular vote, or its legislative votes, or by other articles, as in the case of acquisition by war or conquest or annexation, and with a three‐fourths majority vote of both Houses of Congress. [ Concordance example: Annexation of Canada. ]

CONFEDERATIONS of STATES: It was agreed that the States should have the right to form loose or binding confederations among themselves, upon a three‐fourths majority vote of all of the affected State Legislatures, without Federal approval, and may do so for any political, legal, or other good reasons. The States so joined would remain members of the Union, unless they secede according to the Rules of Secession. [Concordance: The examples given for Confederations of States, and remaining within the Union, were the re‐joining of Virginia and West Virginia, and the proposed joining of several of the smaller Northeast States, and a possible joining of several of the Southern States. ]

SECESSION of the STATES: It was agreed that the right of State Secession is defined as follows: (1.) Any State may secede from the Union, upon a three‐fourths majority vote of its State Legislature, and a contemporaneous three‐fourths majority vote of all of the State Legislatures of its Contiguous States, without Federal approval; or, (2.) Any State may secede by a majority vote of its State Legislature, with Federal approval from three‐fourths of the US Congress. [Concordance Example: If California wants out, their legislature must approve secession by a three‐fourths majority vote, and its contiguous neighbors, Oregon, Nevada, and Arizona must also approve by the same margins, ~or~ The US Congress must approve, in lieu of Contiguous State approval.]

REFORMATION of the STATES: It was agreed that the right of Reformation must be defined as follows: (1.) A portion of any State or States, singly, or together, may form another separate State or States within the Union, upon a three‐fourths majority vote of its local governments, and a contemporaneous three‐fourths majority vote of the State Legislatures including its Parent State or States, and Contiguous States, without Federal approval; or, (2.) any State may reform by a majority vote of its State Legislature, with Federal approval from three‐fourths of the US Congress. [Concordance Example: If the State of North Colorado is to be formed, then there must be a majority vote of the local governments, and then the Colorado legislature must approve reformation by a three‐fourths majority vote, and its contiguous neighbors, Utah, Wyoming, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, and New Mexico must also approve by the same margins, ~or~ The US Congress must approve, in lieu of Contiguous State approvals.]

STATES RIGHTS: It was agreed that the Tenth Amendment means exactly what it

Page 99 of 121 says. It was further agreed that the so‐called "supremacy clause" must be limited, and should remain a matter for the Supreme Court, case by case, where appropriate. [Concordance Examples: States may not inappropriately usurp border patrol duties, but States may appropriately defend their international borders in the absence of Federal protection. States may not inappropriately confer citizenship on non‐ citizens. States may not knowingly tolerate the illegal provision of shelter or comfort or refuge to enemies or illegal aliens.]

FEDERAL LANDS and PARKS: With exception to military bases, ports, and depots, and with exception to Washington, District of Columbia, the Federal Government will cede ownership of all other Federally‐owned lands, power plants, dams, and waterways to the States.

ILLEGAL SEARCH and SEIZURE and No‐Knock Warrants: It was agreed that the Fourth Amendment means exactly what it says, and that citizens are well within their rights to defend themselves against any no‐knock or other unannounced entry, or warrantless seizure or entry.

FEDERAL ELECTIONS: It was agreed that there would never again be any direct popular vote Federal elections. The New United States would operate as a "true republic", with all power flowing from its member States and from their legislatures.

The US SENATE: It was agreed that the role and make‐up of the Senate remains unchanged. However, because there will be no more Federal elections, US Senators will be nominated by State Governors, and approved by that State's legislature, and will serve a six‐year term, and may be re‐elected. Senators must be American by birth, both jus soli and jus sanguinis, and at least age 35. The current number of two Senators per State remains unchanged.

The US HOUSE of REPRESENTATIVES: It was agreed that the role and make‐up of the House remains unchanged. However, since there will be no more Federal elections, US Congressmen will be nominated and approved by each State's legislature, and will serve a four‐year term, and may be re‐elected. Representatives must be American by birth, both jus soli and jus sanguinis, and at least age 35. The current number of Representatives for the 50‐States, 438, remains unchanged, but may be later changed as necessary by Congress to reflect reapportionment, population growth, and other changes.

THE LIMITED ROLE of the EXECUTIVE: It was agreed that the President is the Chief Executive of the Executive Branch; The President is also the Commander‐In‐Chief, in times of war and peace, except as may be directed, changed, or mandated by a three‐ fourths majority vote of the Senate; The President at any time may temporarily

Page 100 of 121 delegate his powers as Commander in Chief to either the Chief of the Joint Chiefs, or to the Vice‐President; The Senate, upon three‐fourths vote, may forcibly delegate the powers of the Commander in Chief to the Joint Chiefs, or to the Vice‐President.

QUALIFICATIONS for the PRESIDENT and VICE‐PRESIDENT: It was agreed that the President and the Vice President must be American by birth, both jus soli and jus sanguinis; At least age 35; Verifiable record of either military service or meaningful civilian service; Written approval from the Directorate of Qualifications.

DIRECTORATE of QUALIFICATIONS: It was agreed that the Congress, with assistance from the Joint Chiefs, shall establish and maintain an Office of the Directorate of Qualifications, the sole function of which is to fully vet by investigation and examination, any candidate for President, Vice‐President, or any other Federal Officer, Cabinet Level or above, which is either nominated, confirmed, or elected by Congress. The Directorate of Qualifications will have unlimited subpoena and investigation power in order to fully examine nominees and expeditiously deliver reports to Congress regarding any candidate for Federal Office.

SELECTION of the PRESIDENT and the VICE PRESIDENT: It was agreed that the Congress, at six‐year intervals, or more frequently as necessary, will convene both houses in separate sessions to nominate and elect a President and a Vice‐President.

The Senate, by simple majority vote, will agree on a slate of two Presidential candidates, and two Vice‐ Presidential candidates. The four selections will be fully vetted by the Directorate of Qualifications, and the nominations and the reports will be forwarded to the House of Representatives not later than the second Tuesday in the month of January. The House of Representatives will immediately convene, and by simple majority vote, separately elect the President and then the Vice‐President not later than the third Tuesday in the month of January, whereupon they will be immediately sworn in and will assume office. All of the other traditional rules and customs of the executive and the executive branch are unchanged.

The existing order of succession at the time of this writing and the rules of the existing 25th Amendment are adopted; The existing rules for impeachment, conviction, and removal are unchanged; The President and the Vice‐President are eligible to serve a single six‐year term, and may not serve additional terms directly in succession, unless so approved by a three‐fourths vote of both Houses of Congress.

STRENGTHENING the entire BILL of RIGHTS: It was agreed that this convention affirms that the literal wording of the 1st through 10th Amendments is accepted.

Page 101 of 121 STRENGTHENING CONGRESS: It was agreed that the Congress will create and supervise an Office of Audits and Investigations, which will have full access to the operations of every branch of the executive branch. The Investigators employed will have similar access and authority to that of the current US Marshals Service.

STRENGTHENING the SUPREME COURT: It was agreed as follows: (1.) The Supreme Court is directed to create and operate a lower court of pre‐review, the Constitutional Court. The Constitutional Court will interrupt the traditional process of new legislation being offered immediately to the President for his signature. Before the President may accept and sign any new legislation, the Constitutional Court must expeditiously review the proposed legislation, and render a complete opinion as to its Constitutionality; (2.) The Supreme Court will create and supervise an Office of Investigations, with subpoena power, which will have unlimited access to any body or group within its jurisdictions. The Investigators employed will have similar access and authority to that of the current US Marshals Service. [Concordance Note: (a.) When the Supreme Court becomes the third, and final, and last hope for an investigation, for example, if it were necessary to bring suit, request subpoena powers, and subpoena documents from Health and Human Services in Hawaii, then the Supreme Court could, if it wished, hear that case, and if it so ruled, execute a subpoena and give findings to the plaintiff. (b.) There is no intention to create a Supreme Court level prosecutor's office, although it is assumed that any evidence which is revealed by any subpoena must be reported to both Congress and to the Executive Branch.]

JOINT CHIEFS: It was agreed that the role and composition of the Joint Chiefs is unchanged.

FEDERAL REVENUE: It was agreed that the Federal Government's sole source of Revenue shall be from the State Governments. In order to insure that an equitable burden is shared by each State, this Constitution therefore sets the following limits and guidelines for how the States may tax its free citizens and other inhabitants. Congress shall create an annual budget for the Federal Government. The States are responsible for each State continually collecting and forwarding to the Federal Treasury an amount proportional to each State's House Representation, but in no case shall any taxation other than a simple point‐of‐sale or value‐added tax be applied, and the maximum taxation levied by the States shall be 15‐percent, with a maximum of 7‐percent paid to the Federal Government, and the remainder shared between State and local governments. The Federal Government may borrow money and print money, but in no case may there exist a national debt five‐years after this Constitution is in effect.

DATE in EFFECT: It was agreed that the Second Constitution of the United States of

Page 102 of 121 America would go into effect, and become law, in exactly one‐year after its signing.

FINAL PROCESS: It was agreed that this entire set of plain language recommendations be immediately re‐written by the convention's legal scholars, and incorporated as the 13th Amendment to the old Preamble, the Seven Articles, and the first Twelve Amendments, as existed circa 1850, and together with other features from later Amendments, as have been noted and included in these recommendations, shall form the Second Constitution of the United States of America. The document, thus written, will be offered to the entire convention for a single three‐fourths majority vote, and if passed, will be signed by all convention and council members and by the presiding Chief Justice. Given that the final document will exist as a new constitution, there will be no ratification by the States.

IDENTIFIED ISSUES, RESERVED for NORMAL CONGRESSIONAL LEGISLATION: The council has recommended, and the convention has voted by a three‐fourths majority vote, that the current sitting Congress must immediately begin work on providing funded solutions for all transitional issues, including but not limited to:

(1.) Address the unproductive and chronically unemployed, who must transition to a non‐dependent status within 12‐months, and include the issues of workfare and work camps;

(2.) There will be very large numbers of phased‐out Federal and State employees; The Congress will provide for limited (a.) Testing and either exclusion or retraining, (b.) Limited retraining of those few found to have any marketable skills, and (c.) offering work camps and public service minimum wage jobs to those who have merit and who are physically able;

(3.) Deal with the enormous State and Federal prison population, and address the issues and advantages of deportation, and/or Offshore Prison Colonies, and other creative solutions;

(4.) Create a transition Tax and Budget framework;

(5.) Provide for an equitable Universal Military Draft and Universal Public Service;

(6.) Phase out overseas military bases and "policing" offices where the USA has no direct interests. For example, the CIA should not assassinate the FARC in Colombia, and the DEA should not run entrapment scams in Asia; There are 83 DEA offices in 82 foreign countries; Bring most of the overseas CIA, DEA, DHS, ICE, FBI, TSA, and etc. back to America, and put those officers shoulder to shoulder on the Mexican border;

Page 103 of 121

(7.) Isolate the Social Security Trust Fund. Fund it. Limit its use to normal payments to retired persons who are age 50 or older at the time of this transition. Create a cut‐ off date, after which retirement funding is a personal obligation, and not a Federal Government obligation. Sell every agency, which can be privatized, including Amtrak, and the Post Office, and etc.

(8.) Phase out unproductive or counter‐productive cabinet‐level executive departments which serve no good purpose, including and as noted: State ‐ ‐ Retained and Limited in Scope Treasury ‐ ‐ Retained Justice ‐ ‐ Retained Defense ‐ ‐ Retained and Limited in Scope Transportation ‐ ‐ Retained and Limited in Scope Energy ‐ ‐ Retained and Limited in Scope Veterans Affairs ‐ ‐ Retained and Limited in Scope Homeland Security ‐ ‐ Retained and Limited in Scope Health and Human Services ‐ ‐ Phase Out Housing and Urban Development ‐ ‐ Phase Out Interior ‐ ‐ Phase Out Agriculture ‐ ‐ Phase Out Commerce ‐ ‐ Phase Out Labor ‐ ‐ Phase Out Education ‐ ‐ Phase Out

…and so it was done…

The final version of the Second Constitution of the United States of America was accepted and distributed. The delegates had spent over a month at FLETC, and they all returned home with memories, and stories, and photographs, and new friends. Several wrote books, but they all eschewed the talk‐show circuit. These were men and women of principle, who had come together to mid‐wife the rebirth of a nation.

Lastly, if anyone has ever wondered how waste could be so endemic and pervasive and feed upon itself, and how it grew to multi‐trillion dollar levels unchecked, what follows is over 10‐pages of Federal Government Agencies, most of which will simply "go away" under the New U.S. Constitution. If it's marked in red font, we don't need it, and we never did.

Page 117 of 121 Chapter Twenty‐One ‐ Sleeping Giant

There is a quote attributed to Japanese Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto, regarding the 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor by forces of Imperial Japan. The Admiral allegedly said: "I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve."

How did race relations get so far out of control in America? Well, we already know the answer to that. Overly compassionate liberals took it upon themselves to make the treatment of negroes something akin to adopt‐a‐pet, and what finally pushed the "tipping point" past the point of no return? Perhaps Obama and then Biden‐Harris were simply the last straw, and not unlike Japanese Admiral Yamamoto attacking Pearl Harbor, Barack Hussein Obama provided the same catalyst, and the sight of a Negro‐Muslim‐Communist, with his feet propped up on the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office, was more than most humankind could stomach.

General Mark A. Milley, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, wasn't much more than a four‐star button pushing desk jockey before Biden‐Harris forced the military's hand. History makes heroes of well‐placed opportunists, and General Milley rose to the challenge, and one day he would share his place in the history books with men like General "Ike" Eisenhower and Admiral Chester Nimitz.

Obama and Eric Holder and Biden‐Harris and Garland had been skilled at motivating "their people" ‐ negroes ‐ with the old well‐worn and time‐proven "whitey‐is‐the‐ devil" bullshit, and the "race card" worked for a while. First on the negro communist agenda, Eric Holder bamboozled an impotent Congress into accepting the "hate‐ crimes" legislation, which Holder freely admitted would only be used against non‐ blacks who had somehow wronged negroes. Next, Holder failed to go after the black panthers, or to stop rampant voter fraud committed by negroes. Then, in not so subtle ways, the Justice Department of then Biden‐Harris administration made it clear that "black youths" were off‐limits, and were to be placed completely beyond police control and authority. Finally, negroes began to actively hunt white and Asian and Hispanic humans, using methods like "flash mob riots", and the "knock‐out game".

For the soft underbelly of the rotten American culture, that is when the calculus of the push‐back changed. Black crime continued to increase in America, simply because there was a black president and a black attorney general during Obama's tenure, and there was a soft and malleable lack of leadership in the Biden‐Harris administration, and by 2020 and later, most negroes felt as if they could surely go on sprees of murder and mayhem, and nothing would happen to them, and real Americans weren't supposed to even talk about it, let alone put a stop to it.

Page 118 of 121 Crimes by negroes continued to increase, and during the first phase of Obama's mainstream media silence, patriotic push‐back remained unchanged. That inevitably led to the "tipping point" after the Biden‐Harris inauguration, and then there was Hell to pay, when suddenly a steep push‐back was created by an informal amalgamation of fringe and mainstream racist, separatists, and traditional patriotic and political groups. The negroes and their liberal politician controllers had succeeded in awakening a sleeping giant.

Liberals bring the strangest words and concepts to these conflicts. A liberal would assert that you can "manage" a problem. A moderate would perhaps claim to "contain" the problem, while a common‐sense conservative would seek to simply "end" the problem.

There was only occasional discourse given to the "final solution to the negro question", but those debates invariably led to discussions of the most extreme nature including forced abortions and sterilization, or capture and deportation back to Africa, or perhaps the creation of offshore negro work colonies, which was actually one of Lincoln's plans. President Abraham Lincoln personally found miscegenation most repugnant, and following the Civil War, if President Lincoln had not been assassinated, it is entirely possible that most of the freed negro slaves would have been taken to Monrovia in Liberia, an African colony which had been previously created expressly for the purpose of processing repatriated Africans, and releasing them back into the wild.

From the 1860 election, shaped by the Lincoln Douglas debates, until this moment in time, there was more than 160‐years of white failure, which any new President would inherit. Those failures have produced unending conflict, which must be either "managed", or "contained", or "ended", depending where you stand on the American political spectrum. Failure to peacefully end slavery, failure to accept States Rights, failure of the Missouri compromise, failure to capture and deport freed slaves, an unending panoply of failures, caused solely by the controlling white majority, which failed to adequately decide the negro question.

The burden for the sleeping giant, once awakened, was that it must finally, once and for all, fully decide the negro question.

Chapter Twenty‐Two ‐ Epilogue Everything is a scam

You just have to know where to look, and how deep to look, but in the final analysis, almost every manmade activity and institution includes a certain amount of lies, fraud,

Page 119 of 121 duplicity, and insincerity. There are so many oxymorons that we readily find in government, "honest politician", "military intelligence", even the U.S. Constitution's most bedrock principles ‐ that "all men are created equal" ‐ and the process of "checks and balances" ‐ none of our most vaunted principles and ideas have ever proven to be fully honest or practical.

"All men are created equal", now that's a good one, ain't it? That was the Founding Father's high ideal, but the concept was both misapplied, over‐rated, over‐hyped, and not clearly thought through.

Obama's socialism and the Biden‐Harris communism was just the thin edge of the wedge, finally nearly splitting an America, which was already divided by race, class, wealth, education, and luck of the draw on genetics and jobs.

The Civil War was the most awful of wars, fought brother against brother for all of the wrong reasons. We were fortunate enough to keep the union together then, and in our modern‐day recovery ‐ in our rebirth ‐ after the pendulum swung back from the tipping point, and after the birthing pains from implementing the Second Constitution of the United States of America, this nation proved its resilience again.

The Obama and Biden‐Harris presidencies were truly the "last straws", and served as proof that a major dry‐docking and refitting was necessary for the ship of state, and it's always the navigator or the chief engineer below decks who saves the ship, rarely the captain.

It was all a scam, a very complex free‐flowing entrapment game, and it was completely devised and acted upon by CIA Director William J. Burns. Kamala Harris was always stoned, always drunk, and Joe Biden was never fully alert or really on the job. Director Burns knew that Biden and Harris had to go. The CIA already had the capability to create any number of false‐flag and fake‐bomb plots, so why not make it really a good one? Burns sold Biden and Harris on the entire scheme, the Kennedy "missile‐crisis" equivalency, the danger of nuclear weapons, the direct linkage to future disarmament, the Middle East connection. Biden and Harris easily fell for the scam.

When you devise a very complex and detailed con job ‐ a scam ‐ you can't sell it all in just one session. You have to slowly build up to it. The best "sale" occurs when you know the mark, and you know how he thinks and what motivates him, and when you are able to make him believe that the entire evolving concept is really his idea. Consequently, in the high‐stakes game that followed, CIA Director Burns simply provided the rope, and Biden and Harris hung themselves.

Page 120 of 121 In a free‐flowing complex scam, you have to be flexible, you must have options, and it's like playing a game of chess. You may be able to think four or five moves ahead, but you still don't know precisely how the game will end. And so it was with the loose and uneasy alliance that operated in the background between CIA Director Burns and General Milley. They both knew that at some point the Missouri's mission must be aborted, and the game ended, but there were too many small players who didn't know that the game was a game, and it was a very high‐ stakes game. But, in the end, America won.

CIA Director Burns emerged as the real hero, playing it out to the end, and going through the show trials, and accepting the same life sentence given to Biden, Harris, Garland and others.

But, sometimes there's a back door, a secret way out, and maybe you just disappear one day, and pop up with a new name, a new face, and a new life... and life on the beach ain't that bad, for retired Cold Warriors…

The End.
