The takeover of the Pentagon by special operations, and black ops is nearly complete.
The nomination of Army Special Forces officer Derrick Anderson, who was found responsible for a friendly fire incident in Afghanistan, as the head of special operations for the Pentagon marks the final stage in the takeover of the military by special operations guys who operate as mercenaries and are just as unaccountable in the military as the mercenaries posing as “ICE” are in your neighborhood. In a healthy society, Anderson would have been dismissed—at the least—for his actions. In this system he is promoted, along with many others like him.
In real estate, Donald Trump’s favorite game, the classic expression is, “There are three rules for buying property: location, location, and location!”
When it comes to politics, similarly three rules apply. The three basic rules of politics are: “Control the military, control the military, and control the military.” We should never be so naïve as to allow the surface of things, or the latest opinion poll, or ruling by an impotent judge to distract us.
Behind the rotten throne, Peter Thiel (of the private intelligence and finance conglomerate Palantir), and Steve Fineberg (of the devious military private finance Cerberus Capital Management) the deputy Secretary of Defense are preparing to dispose with the Constitution, and all existing regulations for the military, police, border control, secret service, federal marshals, and other parts of the federal government authorized to use deadly force. Irregular warfare aimed at immigrants, and anyone who disagrees, will be made possible.
The battle for control of the military is extremely serious and will have profound consequences for all of us in the very immediate future. Do not let the obsession with political personalities distract you. The billionaires have already made a show of dismissing Musk (which a black eye that brings to mind the famous pretzel incident with George W. Bush). Plans to throw Trump and Hegseth under the bus in the future are already in place.
Here is a timeline of recent events in the subterrain battle in the Pentagon that is central to the hostile takeover of the federal government by a new class of speculators.
January 20
Trump fires Admiral Linda Fagan, the first woman to lead one of the six US military services, the Coast Guard (a sign to everyone that women are going to be eliminated from the armed forces and also marginalized in society through the extreme abortion/miscarriage policies)
February 21

April 2
Laura Loomer, right-wing Israeli operative supposedly has meeting with Trump to discuss disloyal people in Trump administration and demands firings.

Their primary role is to conduct security operations in those coastal waterways.)
