This week saw continued escalations by the insane Biden Administration of the Ukraine war which Donald Trump neutralized. The fight against Tusli Gabbard, whose active soldier antiwar stance has made her a hero will expose the deepest of deep state operatives in all their ugliness.
In this newsletter, we report on President Trump's policies and how you can help educate your fellow American citizens to support them. Our report covers energy policy resources, cabinet nominations, local political shifts, new candidates, and veteran endorsements.

The Midweek Update - Trump Team Threatens Oligarchy's Grip - November 20, 2024
With the nominations announced so far, Donald Trump has made clear that he is taking a blowtorch to the policies and institutions which have shackled the American presidency and allowed the British oligarchy to bring us to the brink of disaster.
With the nominations announced so far, Donald Trump has made clear that he is taking a blowtorch to the policies and institutions which have shackled the American presidency and allowed the British oligarchy to bring us to the brink of disaster. That has reached a dangerous point of escalation with the Biden Administration's actions this week which have brought us into direct confrontation with Russia. In an interview with Tucker Carlson, Russ Vought who was Trump's previous and hopefully future OMB director, exposes the role of the Fourth Branch of government, the Administrative State, and highlights why the incoming Trump government, populated by all of his nominees, represents our last chance.
Transcript: The Midweek Update - Trump Team Threatens Oligarchy's Grip - November 20, 2024
Susan Kokinda: [00:00:00] Hello everybody, this is Susan Kokinda with your Midweek Update. Today is November 20th, and the inauguration of the 47th President of the United States is exactly two months from today. The juggernaut which is returning Donald Trump to the presidency was propelled by his own courage and commitment, by an unprecedented mobilization of the American people, and by the courage of people who he had won over to his fight.
Some like J. D. Vance, who we went over a while ago, and others more recently like R. F. K. Jr., Tulsi, Elon, and Vivek. This new political configuration swept aside the oligarchy's propaganda machine, the lawfare, the Democratic vote generating operations of the 501C3s and C4s and their billionaires, and it delivered a mandate.[00:01:00]
But now, after the first two weeks of this transition period, a sharper picture of this war has emerged. Both from the standpoint of Trump's appointments, and from the completely deranged response of the Anglo American Empire. With the nominations announced so far, Donald Trump has made clear he is taking a blowtorch to the policies and forces, and what I'm going to stress today, the institutions which have shackled the American presidency and our unique constitutional powers.
He's made clear that he intends to wield his constitutional powers in ways we have not seen for decades. The elites see this as an existential threat to a power structure which they have spent more than a century putting into place. And their immediate response is to play [00:02:00] nuclear chicken with Russia.
There's probably no one watching this show who doesn't know that the United States has given authorization to Ukraine to fire U. S. long range missiles into Russia, and they did. Many also know that the Ukrainians have neither the training nor the targeting specifications to do that without direct NATO U. S. involvement, which essentially means that the United States just attacked Russia.
Russian President Putin responded by making official what had only been a proposed new nuclear doctrine for Russia, where previously Russia would respond with nuclear weapons if attacked by a nuclear power, russia is now prepared if attacked by a non nuclear power, namely Ukraine, with weapons provided by a nuclear power, namely the United States, to consider the nuclear power a legitimate target.[00:03:00]
Their new doctrine states that a critical threat to the sovereignty of the Russian Federation, even with non nuclear weapons, will be the basis for a nuclear response. So, in essence, what just happened is that someone, probably Anthony Blinken or Jake Sullivan, has recast the ending of the movie Dr. Strangelove, putting the senile Joe Biden on the back of a descending nuclear missile in place of the cowboy hat waving Slim Pickens.
And another American provocation was announced just a few hours before this update was recorded, that the Biden administration will now allow Ukrainians to use U. S. anti personnel landmines against Russian troops.
The first question a lot of people are asking is, do these lunatics want World War III? Most of them probably do not, although there may be a few among them who are [00:04:00] satanic enough to consider it. What they are trying to do is make it impossible for Trump to resolve the conflict, to box him into an adversarial situation with Russia with no way out, and to try and cripple his presidency before he gets into office.
Many bloggers like Simplicius, Larry Johnson, and others are echoing what Martin Anderson said in his blog today. Whatever they can do to create war and to trap Trump, they are doing right now. As a side note, you might want to ask yourself what crisis they may have cooking up on the financial front as well.
Now, many have already spoken out forcefully about how unconscionable and unconstitutional this Ukraine decision is. Representative Thomas Massey has called for the impeachment of Biden over this. Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene addressed the fact that Congress did not vote on this. Retired [00:05:00] General Michael Flynn demanded that Kamala Harris invoke the 25th Amendment and start the process of removing Biden from power.
Donald Trump Jr. put out a very powerful truth on this. These are all absolutely appropriate responses and should be supported if for no other reason than to make clear to Russia that most Americans do not support this, and are neither nuts nor suicidal. But look a little deeper. Nine weeks ago, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer came to the United States to argue for precisely this policy.
The Prime Minister argued for the United States to allow the British to use Pentagon controlled targeting data so that the British Storm Shadow missiles could be used by Ukrainians to strike into Russia. While apparently permission was not then forthcoming, The geopolitical hand of the British in the current attack can't be [00:06:00] ignored.
Speaking at the G20 summit yesterday, Prime Minister Starmer doubled down on Britain's commitment to continue this war, no matter the consequences. And while Starmer, nine weeks ago, was trying to egg the Biden Harris administration on, his Labor Party minions were running all over the United States, campaigning for Harris, and simultaneously lobbying for Congress, to gut what was left of the First Amendment of the Constitution and impose a British style censorship regime in the United States in the hoped for wake of a Harris victory.
The installation of Harris 47 was to have been the final step in the destruction of the United States as a constitutional republic. This assault on our nation is not some recent manifestation of the military industrial complex, or what people even more [00:07:00] recently have called the Deep State. Throughout our nation's history, the oligarchy, and in our case specifically the British oligarchy, has hated and feared the brilliant system of checks and balances and separation of power, which works when animated by two things.
A resolute and brilliant president, and a mobilized, competent population which holds Congress accountable for their actions. Well, right now with Donald Trump, we have the first. And a little later, we'll talk about the responsibility of the latter, which is you.
Now, go back to the founding of the nation. Jefferson and Madison and their cohorts did not like the strong presidential system. And they attacked George Washington viciously, calling him a king and a tyrant. This would be a good time for patriots [00:08:00] to dispel their manipulated opinions about Jeffersonian democracy and check out the works by Promethean Action's Robert Ingram, to which we'll provide a link on our website.
But I want to fast forward from our nation's founding to the 1880s and Woodrow Wilson because on Monday, Russ Vought, Trump's former and hopefully future Office of Management and Budget nominee brought up Woodrow Wilson several times in an absolutely brilliant interview with Tucker Carlson. Vought presented a chilling picture of the leviathan known as the fourth branch of government, or the administrative state.
He described this independent administrative state as totally unconstitutional, saying that you would understand this if, quote, you would have seen Woodrow Wilson bemoan our constitutional [00:09:00] system, citing Wilson's 1885 book entitled Congressional Government. Vaught made the point that Wilson wanted to turn the United States into a British parliamentary system where power resided nominally in the parliament.
But in reality, in the administrative apparatus, which served and serves the oligarchy. He pointed out that Wilson wanted to do this by constitutional amendment, but instead this came about through the creation of the fourth branch of government, or the administrative state. Guess who was president when that began to happen? It was Woodrow Wilson, who gave us the Federal Reserve, the income tax, brought us into World War I and revived the Ku Klux Klan from inside the White House.
Now, during that interview, Vaught described how this administrative apparatus has been consolidated over the [00:10:00] last century and a half and shows how what he calls the downstream policies like unstoppable wars or protection of the police state apparatus or protection of the big cartels like Big Pharma, are a result of this apparatus which has been established to be and has been independent of our constitutional government. He gives a clearer picture than I've ever seen before about how the curtailment of constitutional presidential powers like impoundment and recess appointments or the fight over the use of Schedule F in firing government bureaucrats have been part of this struggle.
Letting this interview sink in, you will have a much more visceral understanding of the revolutionary nature of Donald Trump's appointments, like Matt Gaetz, Tulsi Gabbard, RFK Jr., Pete [00:11:00] Hegseth, Elon Musk, and Vivek Ramaswamy, and why this is going to be a fight to the political death over the next several months.
Trump knows what he's doing, and it is historic. The way Vaught put it again in the interview, quote, The American people are not in control of their government, and what is needed is a president who must take control of the executive branch, must move executively fast, with radical constitutional perspective, unquote. In order to go after the so called independents, of the fourth branch of government.
This also defines our responsibility as citizens of that branch of government which our founders created to be most directly affected by us, namely the legislative branch. It's not just the executive branch that has been castrated by the imposition of the administrative [00:12:00] state.
The Congress has, up until now, largely surrendered to it, ceasing to actually legislate, except through obscene, omnibus bills, for many, many decades. The battle over Trump's appointments gives us a unique opportunity to begin to reclaim the actual constitutional purpose of the legislative branch.
Promethean PAC has just released a petition demanding that the Senate must confirm all of these controversial appointments and the rest of Trump's appointments so that we can proceed at warp speed to revive this republic. Help us to get the widest circulation of that petition. Which can be found on the Promethean PAC website and is also linked below.
Before I get back to the importance of giving Trump what he needs to govern, I wanna point to another important aspect of the functioning of the legislative [00:13:00] branch. There is sometimes an understandable skepticism about dealing with incumbent congressmen in this case. On our side of the equation, Republicans, we all know how hard it is to dislodge an incumbent.
Even if you have a crackerjack America First candidate, because no matter how good they are, they actually have to have enough money to compete. Well, Elon Musk has changed the battlefield significantly in that regard. He's announced that he's going to keep his America PAC open, and he's going to use it to primary any Republican who doesn't support Donald Trump's nominees and policies.
As someone who has watched too many congressional primaries lost because of money, this is a game changer. Use it and wield it like the weapon it is. When you have a reason to call your Republican congressman as we go forward in this fight, you might want to [00:14:00] remind them of Elon Musk's threat.
Now, over the course of the last four years, I'm sure many of you, as I have, have come across people who have been worn down by the fight, thinking that there were too many obstacles to overcome, too much corruption, threats to election integrity, censorship and lawfare, and they fell by the wayside. Many of them have come back to life, but it's not going to get any easier going forward. But what we have to recognize is we've been given a gift.
I want to conclude with, again, Russ Vought's words in that interview, where he said, quote, Donald J. Trump, I find him to be someone so uniquely situated for the moment. Read the Federalist Papers. They designed the system for someone like him. His interests ally with the country's interests. Our system is [00:15:00] designed for strong, opinionated leadership. He is so unique in terms of being an historical transformation person.
We can save the country. The hour is late. It's 1159. Now it's time to execute. If you don't execute, we may never have the chance again, unqote
We're committed to helping you execute, whether it's on the policy front or the political front, and that's why we need you to sign and circulate our petition demanding that the Senate confirm all of Trump's nominees. This has been your Midweek Update. Thanks for listening.

In a chilling revelation from President Trump's recent Time magazine interview, he lashes out at Biden for his "insane decision" to allow long-range US missiles to be sent into Russia, warning that it's a "major escalation" and "a very big mistake." Call your congressman now.
Half-way through the transition process, it is beginning to dawn on people that this isn't just a shift from one Administration to the next. This is a turbulent process of leaving the Anglo-American imperial system behind and creating anew the American Republic.
