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

INVEST IN PAPER: Antichrist Enabler Yuval Noah Harari Speaking At Davos Today Said That AI Will Take Control Of The Bible And The Written Words Of God

End times villain Yuval Noah Harari said today at the World Economic Forum in Davos that ‘AI will take control of the words of God’, challenge accepted

The enemies of God are out of the closet, bold and brazen, and today at the globalist World Economic Forum in Davos, one of our favorite end times villains, Yuval Noah Harari, declared that AI will take over and control the ‘words of God’ specifically mentioning the ones found in the Jewish Bible. Talk about a 21st-century version of “Yea, hath God said?”, Harari like Lucifer in Isaiah 14 is shaking his fist at God and literally daring Him to stop the AI takeover of His words. As we like to remind you, this world is preparing itself to receive the Antichrist, of whom Yuval Noah Harari would seem to be the forerunner.

“The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.” Psalm 12:6,7 (KJB)

We have told you repeatedly over the past 6 years to ‘invest in paper’, why do we mean by that? Simply that since an EMP strike will render things like PDF files and e-Bibles useless in the blink of an eye, that  you should start building a library made up of bound, paper books with words printed on its pages in ink. Think about it. God could have used the most advanced technology in the Universe to preserve His words, but instead, He chose a book for His Book, hand inscribed or printed on paper. That’s what you should do, too. This is why we have a King James Bible Bookstore.

Israeli historian and philosopher Yuval Noah Harari on Tuesday warned that artificial intelligence could challenge book-based religions, saying AI is likely to take over “anything made of words.”

Speaking at the World Economic Forum 2026 Annual Meeting in Davos, Harari said AI is already better than many humans at organising and analysing language. As a result, he argued, systems built mainly on words could increasingly fall under the influence of AI. Focusing on Judaism, he noted that it calls itself as the “religion of the book” and places ultimate authority not in human experience, but in written words. He then raised a broader question about the future of faith in the age of artificial intelligence. “What happens to a religion of the book when the greatest expert on the holy book is an AI?” Harari asked.

Someone should tell him that the preserved words of God are sharper than a two-edged sword, more important than our necessary food, and will exist exactly how God spoke them for eternity. But I know this, after the Rapture of the Church when the strong delusion hits, it’s going to be Hell on Earth, a Hell in which AI will rule for 7 short years.

AMERICA ALONE: Donald Trump At The Davos World Economic Forum Was Supposed To ‘Dismantle The New World Order’, Instead He Turned The World Against Us

From America First To America Alone: Trump at Davos World Economic Forum unites the free world against the United States

For years, millions of MAGA Americans believed Donald Trump was raised up to stand against the New World Order, to expose the globalist cabal, and to tear down the Davos system brick by brick. Yet here we are watching Trump stand at the World Economic Forum in Davos, the very beating heart of globalism, while the nations rage — not against Klaus Schwab, not against Larry Fink — but against America. This is what we warned you was coming, and now it’s here.

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

The flashpoint is Greenland, but don’t be fooled — this is not about ice, minerals, or Arctic shipping lanes. It is about power, sovereignty, and who gets to dictate the future world order. And right now, the optics are disastrous. Davos is not neutral ground. It is not a debating hall. It is the throne room of global governance, where unelected elites gather to coordinate economic, political, and technological control over the nations. The photo at the top of this article was posted to social media by Trump and the White House. The stock market reacted to all this with a 700 point drop.


So when Trump walks into Davos and sparks international outrage — not against the WEF, but against the United States — the result is not the collapse of globalism, but its reinforcement. Europe rallies. NATO hardens. Leaders who normally despise one another suddenly find unity in opposing America.

That is not dismantling the New World Order. That is accelerating the conditions required for it.

Let’s be clear: Greenland belongs to Greenlanders. Denmark knows it. The EU knows it. And the moment Trump framed the issue as American acquisition, rather than cooperation, he handed globalists the moral high ground they crave. What we are witnessing is not a random diplomatic spat. It is the steady erosion of national independence, including America’s. First isolation. Then demonization. Then replacement. America does not need to be conquered — it needs to be removed as a moral authority. And nothing accomplishes that faster than turning allies into adversaries.
Now the headlines read:

  • “U.S. threatens allies”
  • “America destabilizes NATO”
  • “Western unity at risk”

That narrative doesn’t weaken globalism — it justifies it. The New World Order does not fear chaos. It feeds on it. It uses conflict to argue for “global solutions,” “shared sovereignty,” and “collective security.” And every time America is painted as the bully, the case for supranational authority grows stronger.

The Takeaway That You Must Grasp

  • Davos is not being defeated — it is consolidating
  • America is not rising — it is being positioned
  • The New World Order does not fear Trump — it absorbs the chaos around him
  • Bible prophecy is not stalled — it is right on schedule

Our hope was never in Trump.
Our hope was never in America.
Our hope has always been in Jesus Christ, and His soon return.

NTEB PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: As The Pentagon Readies Troops For The Invasion Of Minnesota, Trump Flies To Davos To Join World Economic Forum Elites

The Pentagon is planning to deploy 1,500 active duty troops for the invasion of Minnesota as Trump flies to Davos to join the elites of the World Economic Forum

The Pentagon has ordered about 1,500 active-duty soldiers to prepare for a possible deployment to Minnesota, defense officials told The Washington Post late Saturday, after President Donald Trump threatened to invoke the Insurrection Act in response to unrest there. Speaking of Trump, he will be in Davos, Switzerland, to be a keynote speaker at the World Economic Forum, and he’s bringing with him the ‘gods of this world’ that we like to call the Tech Titans.

“Shew the things that are to come hereafter, that we may know that ye are gods: yea, do good, or do evil, that we may be dismayed, and behold it together.” Isaiah 41:23 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, the world order as we know it is transitioning to something we’ve long feared was coming, and the person who seems to be the catalyst for it is all none other than Donald John Trump. Thank you for your attention in the matter!! Consider the following headlines – a Free Trade Zone between Europe and South America, Trump turning against NATO, the Federal government stifling the media, the Pentagon sending troops to Minnesota, the coming economic collapse, Donald Trump keynote speaker at World Economic Forum – and on and on it goes. But take heart, the MAGA and Q propagandists, who could teach some new tricks to Joseph Goebbels, assure us that the 7D chess Donald Trump has been playing will shortly bring the New World Order to heel, and victory will be ours at last…Hail, victory! Or as they say in Germany, Seig Heil. Trump may indeed be playing 7D chess, but if he is, it is a game being played against us, not on ‘them’. Today we invite you to take your head out of the proverbial sand, and see the world as the Bible says it will be in the last days.
