SHADOW GOV’T: President Trump Must Purge His Administration Of All Obama Appointees To Stop Leaks
Advisers to President Donald Trump are urging him to purge the government of former President Barack Obama’s political appointees

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

Emmanuel Macron Says That France Will Recognize A Palestinian State To Exist In June In Joint Partnership With Mohammed Bin Salman Of Saudi Arabia

France is making plans to recognize a Palestinian state and could do so as early as June, French President Emmanuel Macron said in an interview with a French broadcaster on Wednesday.
Emmanuel Macron has been quiet lately, allowing President Trump to garner all the headlines, but he certainly has not been idle. Yesterday, Macron announced that, in partnership with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman of Saudi Arabia, France plans to recognize a state of Palestine to exist at an upcoming Two State Solution Summit in June to be held in Saudi Arabia. Emmanuel Macron and Mohammed bin Salman are the perfect end times Antichrist dream team. That’s the memo.
“And he said, Draw not nigh hither: put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground.” Exodus 3:5 (KJB)
Do you know the first that in the Bible that God called holy? It was a piece of dirt that Moses was standing on, God called it holy ground. Do you know what the land of Israel is? It’s God holy land. Do you know what Jerusalem is? It’s God’s holy city. This is exactly why it is the most fought-over parcel of real estate in human history, Satan wants it and God is going to let him have it for exactly 7 years. Do you know who will be the poster boy for that land grab, the human face so to speak? Emmanuel Macron, as we have always told you. Having Mohammed bin Salman along for the ride is the cherry on top of the sundae. Keep in mind that this Palestinian Two State Solution Conference takes place in June where it will still be springtime. TO THE FLIGHT!!!
France could recognize a Palestinian state in June, says Macron
FROM POLITICO EU: Macron said he hoped that by recognizing Palestinian statehood at a conference in June that France is co-hosting with Saudi Arabia pushing for a two-state solution, attendees who do not formally recognize Israel would in turn do so.
“We must move toward recognition, and we will do so in the coming months,” said the French president. “I’m not doing it for unity, or to please this or that person. I’m doing it because at some point it will be fair,” he said.
Macron’s comments come after Israel resumed its bombardment of the Gaza Strip last month when a two-month-long truce came to an end and ceasefire talks broke down between Israel and the militant group Hamas. Israel has since halted the delivery of humanitarian aid to the Palestinian enclave.
Israel’s war in Gaza was triggered by Hamas’s Oct. 7, 2023, assault against southern Israel during which 1,200 people were killed and 250 were taken hostage. The Hamas-run Gazan Health Ministry says more than 50,000 people in Gaza have died in the ensuing conflict. That figure includes both civilian and combatant fatalities. The Israeli-Palestinian conflict resonates deeply in France, which is home to Europe’s largest Jewish and Muslim communities. Israel is also home to a large French-speaking community that has kept strong ties to France.
France has always been in favor of a two-state solution but has resisted calls to recognize a Palestinian state, often arguing that Paris would only do so if it served the peace process.
Macron’s comments came at the end of a three-day trip to Egypt, during which he visited a hospital treating Palestinians in the city of El Arish, near the border with Gaza.
“I want to believe in peace; today the conflict has intensified and it’s terrible … Since March 2, there’s nothing going in [to the Gaza Strip] — no water, no food, no medication, and none of the injured are coming out,” Macron said.
Macron’s decision is likely to antagonize Israel and draw a backlash from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who says that recognizing Palestinian statehood now is effectively rewarding terrorism.
“A ‘unilateral recognition’ of a fictional Palestinian state, by any country, in the reality that we all know, will be a prize for terror and a boost for Hamas. These kind of actions will not bring peace, security and stability in our region closer — but the opposite: they only push them further away,” Israeli Foreign Affairs Minister Gideon Sa’ar said on X. The French Jewish umbrella group Crif on Thursday slammed Macron’s decision to recognize a Palestinian state, calling it “an unacceptable political victory” for Hamas while dozens of Israeli hostages are still being held in Gaza.

France could recognise Palestinian state ‘in June’: Emmanuel Macron
Emmanuel Macron of France is planning to recognise a Palestinian state within months and could make the move at a UN conference in New York in June on settling the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians, President Emmanuel Macron said Wednesday. He will be joined by Mohammed bin Salman of Saudi Arabia.

BOOM: Stock Market Shoots Up Thousands Of Points On Heels The Announcement That President Trump Is Pausing His Tariff Scheme For 90 Days

Stocks surged after President Donald Trump announced a 90-day pause in tariffs, causing a stock market that’s been under extreme pressure the last 5 days to skyrocket
All the world’s a stage, And all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts, His acts being seven ages. Those words of William Shakespeare are not scripture but they certainly lines up with scripture to a very high degree. The end times are a multi-act drama that the prophet Isaiah calls the ‘strange act’ of God almighty. After sending the world financial markets plunging into economic uncertainty, President Donald Trump has issued a 90-day pause on his ill-conceived tariffs scheme.
“For the LORD shall rise up as in mount Perazim, he shall be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon, that he may do his work, his strange work; and bring to pass his act, his strange act.” Isaiah 28:21 (KJB)
Donald Trump has Main Character Syndrome in his very own stage play, and granted, he is the most-powerful man in the free world, but above and beyond that, there is no shortage of drama here on Day 1,850 of 15 Days To Flatten The Curve. What comes next? Everything! Have you noticed that with all the craziness, people have stopped talking about releasing the Epstein Files? Yeah. about that, nothing’s coming. Just like nothing’s going to come out about who really shot JFK, who is really behind the drone incursions, and what does the government really think about UFOs? Instead of answers, instead of the truth, we get bread and circuses. Like this one. Glad to see a pause on tariffs, it was a dumb idea to begin with and I hope it never comes back.

Dow surges 2,000 points, Nasdaq jumps 8% after Trump signals a 90-day pause on some tariffs
FROM CNBC: The S&P 500 gained 6%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 2159 points, or 5.7%. The Nasdaq Composite jumped 8%.
“I have authorized a 90 day PAUSE, and a substantially lowered Reciprocal Tariff during this period, of 10%, also effective immediately,” Trump posted on his Truth Social.
It wasn’t clear if the pause would be for all nations or just some. Trump, in the same post, said he was raising the tariff on China higher again to 125%. Shares of the stocks hardest hit during this tariff battle led the comeback. Apple was up 7% and Nvidia surged 10%. Walmart gained 9%. Before Trump’s announcement, stocks were volatile during most of Wednesday’s session, dealing with a tit-for-tat back and forth between China and Trump. The EU also approved its first set of tariffs on the U.S. set to start April 15.
Stocks were trending higher with traders appeared encouraged Wednesday morning after Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said he would be taking a lead negotiating role in tariff talks. Also, shortly after the market open Wednesday, Trump urged investors that now was “a great time to buy.”
Anxiety around the rollout of the tariffs fueled a four-day rout for stocks. Over the course of the previous four trading sessions, the Dow lost more than 4,500 points, while the S&P 500 sustained a 12% loss. The Nasdaq Composite was down more than 13% in that period. READ MORE

RUMOURS OF WARS: The Prepared Citizen Movement Is Now Mainstream As Americans Understanding That War Is Coming Prepare For The Inevitable

The Prepared Citizen Movement is a mainstream and rapidly growing sector of America who rightly understand that war, civil or global, is absolutely coming
How well I remember the Prepper Movement back in the early days of Now The End Begins, and we wrote and talked about people who made storehouses of food and necessities on their properties, purchased guns and ammo in large numbers, giving birth to a cottage industry that was just as much 1776 as it was 21st century. But that was then and this is now, and now we have an America that has so far lived through 5 years of engineered pandemics, bioweapon vaccines, digital ID and lockdowns, and knows that war, civil or global, is absolutely coming. Welcome to the Prepared Citizen Movement.
“Proclaim ye this among the Gentiles; Prepare war, wake up the mighty men, let all the men of war draw near; let them come up:” Joel 3:9 (KJB)
The Prepared Citizen Movement is a long-festering idea whose time has arrived, and honestly, it makes total sense. Look at the headlines as of today’s date, and what do you see? You see massive chaos, confusion and instability across all sectors of American life as well as globally. America might be at war, literally, with Iran by the weekend. No one knows what’s going on, and everyone is afraid of what tomorrow’s headlines will bring. Everyone that is except for those of us who read and believe the King James Bible, we’ve been telling you for some time to buckle up and get ready. It’s almost here, and that’s the memo.

Americans Are Preparing for When All Hell Breaks Loose
FROM THE NY TIMES: Ten men, some wearing camouflage, others in vests loaded with ammunition for their AR-15 rifles, gathered under the morning shade of oak trees in Central Florida last month. They were there to learn marksmanship tactics common among Special Operation forces and elite law enforcement units. Their instructor, Christopher Eric Roscher, an Air Force veteran, introduced himself and then led the group in prayer.
“Lord, you would use them as assets, to be protectors in this world, in a world that’s full of evil,” he prayed.
The men gathered around him were not soldiers, police officers or right-wing militia members. They were mostly civilians, including two pilots, a nurse and a construction company executive. The class’s title — Full Contender Minuteman — even referred to the civilians turned soldiers of the American Revolution.
In a world shaped by war, a pandemic and extreme weather, more Americans are getting ready for crisis — whether it’s to fight a tyrannical government, repel an invading army or respond to a natural disaster. They are known as prepared or professional citizens, part of a growing number of gun owners who are adapting their mind-set to uncertain and polarized times. And rather than being part of more fringe “prepper” culture, they are growing more mainstream, catered to by companies ready to offer them the tools and training to be ready.
Prepared citizenry and the more familiar practice of “prepping” share some characteristics, though preppers are more focused on getting ready for long-term self-sufficiency — keeping chickens, growing a vegetable garden and storing supplies in bulk. Prepared citizens want to be ready for sudden calamity.
The concept emerged for Mr. Roscher, 35, as he watched Russia invade Ukraine in 2022. Ukrainian civilians were flooding the streets with little ability to defend themselves. “It really hit home for me,” he said.
Mr. Roscher began teaching firearms classes after leaving active duty in the Air Force and started his own training company, Barrel & Hatchet Trade Group, with his business partner Tyler Burke in 2020. Barrel & Hatchet also has a YouTube channel, an Instagram account, a podcast and a gear store.
Their programming is a mix of firearms reviews, training tips and lists, and lessons in being mentally prepared for a disaster. In the past year or so, Mr. Roscher’s turn toward Christianity and prayer has also attracted a receptive audience and clientele. Mr. Roscher recently produced a video he called “Things We Need to Remember, for the Dark Chapter Coming,” which highlighted his belief that some societal flashpoint is near, whether it be from attacks led by drug cartels, possible terrorist sleeper cells spread across the United States or an economic downturn.
His monologue, which also detailed a vivid dream of a nuclear blast, sounded almost like a sermon. READ MORE
