Advisers to President Donald Trump are urging him to purge the government of former President Barack Obama’s political appointees and quickly install more people who are loyal to him, amid a cascade of damaging stories that have put his nascent administration in seemingly constant crisis-control mode.

EDITOR’S NOTE: The Obama Shadow Government has dozens of operatives in place within the Trump administration leaking information at a rapid rate. Not only is this is a felony and possibly treason, it is absolutely hampering the nascent Trump government from being effective as they could be. Until the new president purges his administration of any and all Obama appointees, these heinous leaks will continue unabated. 

A number of his advisers believe Obama officials are behind the leaks and are seeking to undermine his presidency, with just the latest example coming from reports that Attorney General Jeff Sessions met twice last year with the Russian ambassador to the U.S. and apparently misled senators about the interactions during his confirmation hearing.

That was coupled with a New York Times story that Obama appointees spread information about the investigation into the Trump campaign’s contacts with Russia in an attempt to create a paper trail about the probe. Trump’s aides have also blamed Obama appointees for other damaging leaks, like Trump’s erratic phone calls with foreign leaders.

Inside the White House, the chatter about Obama officials in the government has heightened in recent weeks, one administration official said. And advisers are saying it is time to take action.

“His playbook should be to get rid of the Obama appointees immediately,” said Newt Gingrich, a top surrogate. “There are an amazing number of decisions that are being made by appointees that are totally opposed to Trump and everything he stands for. Who do you think those people are responding to?”

“If you employ people who aren’t loyal to you, you can’t be surprised when they leak,” said Roger Stone, another longtime adviser. A third person close to Trump said: “He should have gotten these people who are out to get him out a long time ago, a long, long time ago. I think they know that now.”

The reality, however, is more complicated: The White House has thousands of open jobs across the agencies, many nonpolitical civilian employees are critical of the administration, and some Cabinet secretaries say they need the Obama people during a rocky transition.

Only a few dozen Obama political appointees remain in the federal government apparatus, according to the Partnership for Public Service. Many of them are in crucial positions, including Robert Work, a top official at the Department of Defense, and Thomas Shannon, the acting deputy at the State Department.

Even if Trump were to ax those remaining senior political appointees, he would still have to reckon with the hundreds of thousands of civilian employees, who stay with every administration. Many of them are skeptical of Trump because they resent his assault on Washington and its culture, his impulsive decisions and his seeming lack of intellectual curiosity about their agencies and work.

They have spent the past six weeks on edge. Many are quietly on the job market, but others have been clashing with Trump appointees, either in the open or privately among colleagues, according to officials across agencies. From Homeland Security to Defense and beyond, it’s become a regular conversation among employees about what lines they will not cross before quitting, and how best to slow-walk orders from above to frustrate implementation.

Amid those conversations is a running thread: how long they’d be willing to hold out to bear witness, and try to improve a climate they increasingly hate, or whether to leak information about changes they see in order to try and stop them. “I want to be able to tell people what’s happening here,” one State Department official said.

“Nixon essentially tried to bypass the federal bureaucracy, and the bureaucracy won and removed him from office,” said Newsmax CEO Chris Ruddy, a longtime Trump friend. “The administration needs to be careful not to make too many dramatic changes because the federal bureaucracy itself is a powerful machine, and they tend to have very establishment ideas.”

Gingrich added: “Ninety-five percent of the bureaucrats are against him.”

The White House did not respond to a request for comment.

Some in Trump’s inner circle increasingly fear that the FBI and the intelligence community are out to damage him. But some of the damaging leaks have also come from within his administration, advisers say, because the West Wing is plagued by competing factions that are vying for Trump’s attention and affection.

“You hire a bunch of people in the West Wing who are hacks and aren’t loyal to you, and you’ll have a bunch of leaks,” Stone said. “There aren’t that many Trump loyalists in the White House.”

In meetings, Trump aides like Stephen Miller, his senior policy adviser, have frequently complained about leaks and blamed the Obama appointees and longtime bureaucrats. Other aides have complained about having to sit in inter-agency meetings with Obama holdovers in senior positions. And Trump aides have told their people at agencies not to share plans and documents with Obama holdovers or others who are not sympathetic to them.

Yet across federal agencies, there are few Trump people. Candidates for only about three dozen of 550 critical Senate-confirmed positions have even been nominated, according to the Partnership for Public Service.

Several advisers and people close to Trump described the problem like this: During the transition, aides ignored hundreds of names that had been developed during New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie’s time leading the transition. For several weeks after he was removed, work stopped as the team came to grips with Trump’s improbable win.

Then, little was done to pick officials beneath the Cabinet level after Trump made a series of wham-bam choices. Picks have frequently been held up by the White House because they weren’t loyal to Trump during the campaign, and people have grown increasingly skittish about being employed in a West Wing frequently described as chaotic and dysfunctional.

“I wish I had more of my staff on board,” Sessions said Thursday, during a news conference in which he announced that he would recuse himself from any investigation related to the presidential campaigns.

In a twist, it will be an Obama appointee, Dana Boente, who will now be handling the investigation into the Trump campaign and Russian officials. Sally Yates, who was previously the No. 2 Justice Department official under Obama, was fired in late January after she refused to defend his controversial travel ban.

Gingrich said he blamed Sen. Chuck Schumer for slow-walking the nominees, though Schumer’s office notes that many of the picks were not properly vetted: At least three have already dropped out. The Office of Government Ethics remains overwhelmed with applications now, “but they are beginning to catch up,” one person involved in the nominations said. At many agencies, no top positions are filled, which means the layers of political appointees that report to them haven’t been picked, either.

“I didn’t get it early on. This is not about slowing down the Cabinet. This is about keeping working control of the government for Obama,” Gingrich said. “It’s actually very shrewd on Schumer’s part. Trump is not going to have control of the government until at least June.”

Others say it could be even longer. And that a massive purge is not the answer.

“The solution is not to purge the Obama holdovers but rather to actually identify people and move them forward,” said Max Stier, president of the Partnership for Public Service, which has advised the Trump team. “Historically, it has taken a year plus for administrations to get their entire team in place. I’m afraid the Trump team is behind that, and that would not be a good thing. He has to have his own team in place if he’s going to be able to get things done.” source

2025 Will Go Down For Among Other Things As The Year That Antisemitism Gained A Foothold Not Only In The MAGA GOP But Throughout America As Well

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

2025 was a seminal year for antisemitism and anti-Zionism not only across America but within the MAGA Republican Party

Stop me if you’ve heard this one. A man walks onto a college campus and says “I’m not antisemitic, I just hate Zionists. Free Palestine.” Pretty funny, yes? Or perhaps not, but either way some form of this “joke” has been told endlessly across the United States in 2025. “I’m not against Israel”, they say, “I’m only against Zion”. They advocate for the cutting off of all funding to Israel, and the establishment of a Palestinian state. And no, I am not talking about Democrats primarily, I am talking about half of the Republican Party MAGA Movement, or whatever they call themselves now.

The LORD shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.” Psalm 128:5 (KJB)

What got me thinking about all this wasn’t something that wasn’t directly antisemitic, but when you think about it for a minute, it becomes quite chilling. Benjamin Netanyahu was visiting Trump in the White House over the weekend, where he made a very strange remark. When asked about selling US F-35 jet fighters to Israel’s declared enemy Turkey, Trump said “We’re thinking about it very seriously,” adding “I promise they’ll never use them on Israel,” while walking out of the room. “We’re not going have a problem.” Oh, I see. ‘Trust In Trump’ is it? How could he ever think, in a million years, that giving F-35’s to a country that has threated many times in 2025 to attack Israel could ever be a good idea? It’s a terrible idea, but given Trump’s recent affinity for striking deals with Muslim nations, it makes perfect sense. Just remember, Trump was an avowed antivaxxer right up to the moment he unleashed the COVID vaccine bioweapon. Trump is a lifelong friend of Israel right up to the moment he isn’t anymore.

At the recent meeting of Turning Point USA, antisemitism was on full display with a notable percentage of the participants. “Ben Shapiro is like a cancer, and that cancer spreads,” Steve Bannon said, to the cheers of thousands. Megyn Kelly said during a talk with conservative influencer Jack Posobiec at the conference that “there was a rift even before we lost Charlie… and it revolves around Israel,” NBC reported. For a group that seemed to speak with one voice when they help reelect Donald Trump last November, this is a paradigm shift to say the least. Take a look at what some of the most-notable influencers are saying now.

Some of the stunning 2025 antisemitic turns by MAGA influencers

  • Tucker Carlson: The former Fox News host (and current independent media figure) has been a prominent voice criticized for mainstreaming antisemitic ideas and white nationalist rhetoric, often focusing on “globalists” and questioning U.S. support for Israel. He has also hosted known white nationalists like Nick Fuentes on his show.
  • Candace Owens: The conservative commentator has made numerous controversial comments, including calling Israel “demonic” and promoting anti-Israel conspiracy theories. She frequently uses the term “globalists” to describe a cabal of powerful individuals, a widely recognized antisemitic dog whistle.
  • Nick Fuentes: A leader of the far-right “Groyper” movement, Fuentes is a self-described white nationalist known for Holocaust denial and overt antisemitic rants, who has gained a following among some younger conservatives within the MAGA movement.
  • Stew Peters: A far-right conspiracy theorist and podcast host who promotes Holocaust denial and claims that “primarily Jewish-controlled central banks” fund evil in America; multiple congressional Republicans have appeared on his show. 
  • Steve Bannon: An architect of the MAGA Movement, Bannon has been accused of making antisemitic comments and comparing Jewish commentators like Ben Shapiro to a “cancer” on the conservative movement.
  • Megyn Kelly: The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) accused Kelly of invoking antisemitic tropes when she claimed that Jewish commentators Ben Shapiro and Bari Weiss are “making antisemites”. The ADL stated that blaming Jewish people for the hate directed against them is a classic victim-blaming trope.

Christian, if you are an anti-Zionist, you possess a pathetically-low understanding of the Bible, in either Testament, and should be ashamed of yourself. Seriously. The Bible openly declares that God is a Zionist, and that the kingdom He will usher in during the Millennium will be a Zionist kingdom. If you are anti-Zionist, not only are you antisemitic, you stand in opposition to God Himself. How ’bout that?

And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.” Romans 11:26,27 (KJB)

As we watch America struggling with a very fast rising tide of antisemitism, why don’t you pick a side and stay there? You see, I believe my Bible, and I know how it all winds up, who wins, and how it all will go when the end times dust settles. So here and now, by faith, I stand on the side of the King of the Jews, on the side of His chosen people, the Jews, and with the biblical, and literal, physical, and earthly Zion which is the City of David. Where do you stand?

Why Did Gov. Tim Walz Approve A New Minnesota State Flag That Shows A Chilling Alliance With Flags Representing The Islamic Federal Republic of Somalia?

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The new state flag of Minnesota approved by Tim Walz bears a stunning resemblance to the flags of the Islamic Federal Republic of Somalia

While Donald Trump and the Secretary of War Pete Hegseth distract us with meaningless ‘lethal kinetic strikes’ on drug boats in Venezuela, a much more serious and pressing problem is brewing right here at home in Minnesota. Not only are government actors within that state operating a crime ring in the high hundreds of millions of dollars, it would seem that Minnesota is rapidly becoming an Islamic state.

“When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.” Proverbs 29:2 (KJB)

As we have said many times, the greatest threat to the sovereignty and security of the United States of America, hands down and bar none, has always been and will always be Islam. This was something we recognized clearly under the multiyear reign of Barack Hussein Obama, but something we have conveniently forgotten here in the second term of Donald Trump who is courting Muslim favor like no other president before him. Today I want to show you the battleground state of Minnesota, and how it looks for all the world like a coup is underway. View the evidence and decide for yourself.

1). Radical Leftist governor Tim Walz approves a Somalia-themed new Minnesota state flag

As you can see in the graphic at the top of this article, the “new” state flag of Minnesota bears an undeniable and overwhelming resemblance to the flags found in the Federal Republic of Somalia, a region of the globe that is nearly 100% comprised of Sunni Muslims. Less than 1% of the territories are Christian and Shia Muslim. I am sure it’s just a crazy coincidence, but the Somali-born congresswoman Ilhan Omar has stated multiple times that she serves the interests of the Somalian people in Minnesota above that of the interests of the government in which she presides.

2). The Minnesota Somali Fraud Network

Federal authorities have uncovered several major fraud schemes in Minnesota, primarily related to the misuse of over $1 billion in federal and state social service funds during the COVID-19 pandemic. Of the 87 individuals charged in these cases, the majority are of Somali descent.

Key cases include:

Feeding Our Future: This was the largest single scheme, where a non-profit organization and its partners allegedly stole approximately $250 million from a federal child nutrition program by submitting fraudulent receipts and invoices for meals that were never provided. The founder of the organization was found guilty in this case.

Housing Assistance and Autism Services: Other separate but similar schemes involved fraud in programs providing housing assistance and therapy for children with autism. In one autism fraud case, an individual allegedly stole $14 million by billing Medicaid for fake sessions using unqualified staff.

State auditors and federal officials noted that the Minnesota Department of Education missed numerous red flags and failed to adequately address complaints, which critics argue allowed the fraud to balloon. Federal investigators have stated there is no evidence that any of the stolen money was funneled to the terror group al Shabaab, a claim that was investigated after political allegations were raised.

3). Minnesota as the new ‘Little Somalia’

Minnesota is home to a significant Muslim population, with Arab Americans nearly quadrupling from 2000-2022, and a substantial Somali community settling in the Twin Cities. The state has elected prominent Muslim officials, including the first Muslim Congressman (Keith Ellison, now AG) and Somali-American Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, alongside growing numbers in local government. A robust network of mosques, Islamic schools, and cultural organizations with terror ties like CAIR-MN are the predominate influences. In April of 2023, Minneapolis made history when it became the first major city in the US to allow mosques to broadcast the call to prayer using loudspeakers at any time. Before the change to a city noise ordinance, it had only been permitted to be put out between 7am to 10pm. The majority of Muslims in Minnesota remain unassimilated to American culture and way of life.

Bit by bit, and bite by bite, Minnesota is becoming an Islamic state with a state, led by elected Islamic representatives who are only too happy to encourage this transition. Governor Tim Walz is very proud of his new state flag, a flag that bears obvious allegiance to and solidarity with the Islamic Federal Republic of Somalia. America is under siege from within, and our ‘America First’ president isn’t doing anything of note to solve this problem other than just talking about it.

Harakat al-Shabaab al-Mujahideen, simply known as Al-Shabaab, is receiving funds from the Minnesota taxpayer, while Somali congresswoman Ilhan Omar simply shrugs her shoulders.
