Are top-level members of the Trump administration colluding on
ways to oust President Trump? Are members of Trump’s Cabinet and
National Security Council plotting a coup? Is
National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster among those whom former Trump political adviser Roger Stone alleges (see
here and
here)
have been having “conversations” about removing Trump from office?
There is ample reason for seriously considering the stunning
allegations. And there is good reason to believe that General McMaster
(shown) would figure prominently in any such effort.
Ever since his election, there has been speculation that the
“Deep State”
(or the “establishment”), the globalists who operate as the “permanent
government” of the United States — through both Democratic and
Republican administrations would attempt to remove President Trump from
office — by one means or another. This is not tinfoil hat conspiracy
theory; it has been obvious from Day One in office (actually, even
before his inauguration) that this president is being subjected to
unprecedented, coordinated attacks from within and without, including
most especially from the internationalist political operatives who
control our intelligence agencies, the State Department, the National
Security Council, and numerous other agencies in the federal
bureaucracy. These operatives have engaged in a steady beat of
critically timed leaks to their Deep State allies at the
New York Times, Washington Post, Politico,
CNN and other organs of the virulently anti-Trump “mainstream” media
thought cartel. The leaks — many of which carry criminal penalties for
releasing classified national security information — all aim at
crippling and damaging President Trump politically.
Together with the non-stop attacks accusing him of racism, misogyny,
sexual harassment, Islamophobia, xenophobia, etc., the Deep State
opponents hope to bludgeon President Trump until he is sufficiently
damaged, to the point that he can be removed by impeachment, or invoking
the 25th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. If those efforts fail,
there is always resort to the more extreme option — Plan C. The “25th
Amendment solution,” has been pushed for months now by
The Atlantic, the National Constitution Center, CNN, the
New York Times,
Washington Post,
and the other usual suspects. Under this controversial application of
the constitutional provision for presidential succession, a majority of
the Cabinet, together with the vice president (Mike Pence) would declare
President Trump unfit for office due to “inability to discharge the
powers or duties of his office.” Since President Trump is not physically
incapacitated, the self-appointed removers have relentlessly attacked
him on supposed mental and psychological infirmities. Since President
Trump would not likely concede to such a “soft coup,” the matter would
then go to Congress, which would need to support the removal by a
two-thirds vote margin in both the House and Senate.
CFR’s Max Boot: “Cri du Coeur From Inside the Deep State”
Where does Herbert Raymond McMaster fit in all of this? He is, most
likely, one of the top Deep State actors orchestrating the moves to
undermine President Trump. As we reported on December 29 (
Deep State Boasts: We’re Sabotaging Trump From the Inside),
McMaster has been repeatedly singled out for praise by the anti-Trump
globalists, especially those associated with the Deep State’s premier
Brain Trust, the
Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). Most recently,
the CFR has congratulated McMaster (a CFR member) and Nadia Schadlow (also CFR)
for sabotaging President Trump’s first National Security Strategy (NSS)
report, for cleverly (and subversively) replacing “Trumpian” notions —
such as defending national sovereignty and promoting America First —
with the internationalist, pro-UN, pro-world government positions that
have become “traditional” in the higher levels of the
Democrat-Republican duopoly that has run the country for much of the
past century. CFR Senior Fellow Max Boot, a “Republican” who endorsed
Hillary Clinton for president, approvingly described the
McMaster-Schadlow contributions to the Trump NSS as a “cri du coeur [cry
of the heart] from inside the Deep State signaling to the outside world
that Trumpian thinking has not entirely taken over the U.S.
government.” Yes, and it was also signaling to other Deep State
operatives that anti-Trump opponents within the highest levels of the
administration believe they are ascendant and have such power and
influence that they can get away with thumbing their noses at their
boss. Moreover, it would appear to be one of many signals emanating from
the Deep State’s network that the time may be soon approaching to make
the Big Play. As we reported, Max Boot’s essay is accompanied on the CFR
website by similar praise for Mc Master’s NSS subversion from CFR
President Richard Haass and the CFR’s Senior Fellow for Global
Governance Stewart Patrick.
Boosting McMaster, Trashing Trump
Another of the many important recent signals in that respect is the sneak preview of the NSS provided by Kate Brannen in
The Atlantic, one of the media attack dogs most relentlessly baying at Trump, snapping at his heels, and lunging for his throat. Her piece,
“Trump's National Security Strategy is Decidedly Non-Trumpian,”
carried this subtitle: “An exclusive preview of the White House's plan
highlights the wide gulf between what the president says and what he
does.”
The Atlantic’s “exclusive preview” — 10 days before the
White House released the document — was made possible, Ms. Brannen
informs the reader, thanks to “a Trump administration staffer who
reviewed a draft of the document — and shared key excerpts with me.” The
fact that a source high enough up in the administration (in the White
House, the NSC, or the Cabinet) would leak the document, especially to a
hostile reporter at a hostile publication, should confirm to any
sentient being that President Trump has backstabbers close to the
throne.
“A few classically Trumpian themes are there — the wall, concern over
trade imbalances — but much of the document reflects the values and
priorities of the president’s predecessors,” Brannen notes, regarding
the NSS. Pre-empting the
CFR’s Max Boot,
she credits this continuity — which contradicts the president’s stated
policies — to McMaster and Schadlow. “The draft document,” she says,
“was spearheaded by Nadia Schadlow, senior director for strategy on the
National Security Council (NSC). Schadlow is regarded as a conservative
foreign-policy expert based on her experience in the establishment
think-tank world, including stints at the Council on Foreign Relations
and the Smith Richardson Foundation. She joined the NSC at Lieutenant
General H.R. McMaster’s request after he took over as national security
adviser following retired Lieutenant General Michael Flynn’s resignation
in February.”
As we noted in our previous article, the pundits and media-cited
experts invariably try to misdirect readers/viewers and bolster
Schadlow's credibility by describing her as "conservative," implying, of
course, that her globalist ties and views should not be viewed with
suspicion. And, naturally, Brannen has no trouble finding academic
“experts” to weigh in in favor of the McMaster/Schadlow team and against
Trump. “The NSS drafters did an admirable job of trying to square the
president's views with longstanding American principles and interests,
but the variance with the president's own behavior is so wide as to make
the document incredible,” former NSC and State Department staffer Kori
Schake told her. Besides being a CFR member (which Brannen doesn't
mention), Schake is a fellow at Stanford University's Hoover Institution
and co-editor of the book
Warriors and Citizens with Trump’s
Defense Secretary James Mattis. Mattis and Secretary of State Rex
Tillerson are two of the other top-level administration members that
receive generally positive reviews from the establishment Swamp
Creatures and their media compadres. Like McMaster, Mattis and Tillerson
are presented as being “moderating” influences on an otherwise
dangerous and out-of-control president.
Brannen also quotes former Obama NSC official Joshua Geltzer (CFR),
now a professor at Georgetown Law School. “Whatever value the language
of an NSS has, that value depends on the credibility of the deeds and
other words that might back it up,” Joshua Geltzer said. “Sadly, there's
been too much in the past year designed to stoke fear and sow schisms
to make credible language of unity, however much I do crave such unity.”
Among the many alleged sins that Brannen accuses President Trump of
is that “He has undermined the rule of law repeatedly, personally
attacking specific judges, the federal judiciary more broadly, as well
as the FBI, the Justice Department and their leaders, some of whom he
picked.” That is rich, coming from a rabidly partisan “journalist” who
assists and praises those who violate our laws and jeopardize our
national security, and whose publication has ceaselessly attacked the
president.
The Atlantic, by the way, is one of the many establishment media organs that endorsed Hillary Clinton.
The Atlantic’s
publisher, David G. Bradley, is a member of the CFR, as is veteran
leftwing correspondent James Fallows. Bradley sold the majority share in
the company to the Emerson Collective, a leftwing outfit led by Laurene
Powell Jobs (CFR), the billionaire widow of Apple Inc. co-founder Steve
Jobs, but has stayed on to continue building the Washington, D.C.-based
media empire’s influence among the Swamp supporters. Bradley, Jobs, and
the folks at
The Atlantic are so venomously anti-Trump that when
Politico
fired reporter Julia Ioffe for an extremely crude F-bomb tweet
suggesting an incestuous relationship between President Trump and his
daughter Ivanka,
The Atlantic immediately hired Ioffe to cover politics and national security.
The Atlantic’s Kate Brannen also writes for
Foreign Policy,
a publication launched in 1970 by the globalist Carnegie Endowment for
International Peace, but purchased in 2013 by the CFR-dominated
Washington Post Co. (now rebranded as Graham Holdings Company). Writers
for
Foreign Policy tilt heavily to the Democratic portside and many are prominent Swamp denizens. Like the CFR’s own in-house journal,
Foreign Affairs, Foreign Policy depends heavily on CFR “experts,” but takes a more openly “progressive” stance on most issues.
McMaster’s Night of the Long Knives: Purging Trump Loyalists
On May 9, 2017, Brannen rushed to McMaster’s defense with a
Foreign Policy
article titled, “The Knives Are Out for Lt. Gen. H.R. McMaster.” “In
the White House ‘Game of Thrones for morons,’” Brannen wrote, “Steve
Bannon is trying to turn the president against his national security
advisor.” Brannen’s
Foreign Policy piece was playing off of a similar piece written the day before by Eli Lake for
Bloomberg News
titled, “Washington Loves General McMaster, But Trump Doesn't.”
(Michael Bloomberg, of course, is a member of the CFR and his company is
a CFR “President’s Circle” corporate member.) Lake and Brannen paint a
picture of the noble, duty-bound, “brilliant” McMaster besieged by
ideological cretins and “morons.”
Brannen’s colleague at
The Atlantic, Rosie Gray, penned a
similar piece titled, “The War Against H.R. McMaster,” in which she
warned that “the national-security adviser’s job is on the line, and the
pro-Trump media have launched an all-out assault against him.” The
“pro-Trump Media” to which she referred —
Breitbart News, The Daily Caller, The Free Beacon,
Infowars,
and others — had indeed been going after McMaster, and for good
reason; McMaster is seen (correctly, in this writer’s opinion) as
leading a slow-motion coup, gradually replacing Trump loyalists with CFR
globalists.
McMaster is not the mastermind of this operation; he is merely the
point man for the Deep State. The takedown of General Flynn was
orchestrated by operatives above McMaster’s pay grade to clear the way
for his ascendancy. The same operatives, no doubt, maneuvered to make
sure that Trump would not replace Flynn with Lt. Gen. Keith Kellogg, an
early Trump loyalist who still remains as Executive Secretary and Chief
of Staff of the NSC. Over the past several months, McMaster and his Deep
State enablers have whittled away the Trump loyalists to the point
where the president has become essentially surrounded by CFR globalists
and their minions. If Bannon & Company had the knives out for
McMaster, it appears McMaster & Company had the longer knives — and
more of them — and were a step or two ahead of the Trumpsters.
Here is a short list of some of the significant casualties among the
Trump loyalists whom McMaster is credited with giving the axe since
General Flynn’s departure:
Steve Bannon — NSC member and chief White House Adviser
Richard Higgins — NSC Director for Strategic Planning
Colonel Derek Harvey — NSC Middle East Advisor
Ezra Cohen-Watnick — NSC Senior Director for Intelligence Programs
Tera Dahl — NSC Deputy Chief of Staff
Adam Lovinger — NSC Senior Director for Strategic Assessment
Sebastian Gorka — Deputy Assistant to the President
Thus, McMaster — who is
widely recognized as being at odds with key planks of President Trump’s agenda, and has, reportedly,
openly mocked the president at a dinner,
calling him a “dope,” and an “idiot,” with the intelligence of a
“kindergartner” — has gained strategic high ground in the Trump
administration. While purging Trump loyalists, he also kept on board
(and in some cases promoted) Obama holdovers and CFR globalists. Key
players among McMaster’s Minions include: Nadia Schadlow (CFR); Dina
Habib Powell (CFR and Trilateral Commission), although she has indicated
she will be leaving sometime early in 2018; Victoria Coates (who cites
Donald Rumsfeld and K.T. McFarland, both CFR members, as her mentors).
Among the more notorious Obama NSC holdovers whom McMaster protected
are: Abigail Grace, Fernando Cutz , Merry Lin, and Andrea Hall (who is
reported to be the source of critical leaks from the Trump NSC). In
addition, McMaster campaigned (unsuccessfully) to bring Obama CIA
operative Linda Weissgold in to replace Trump loyalist Cohen-Watnick.
She’s the one who drafted the infamous “Benghazi talking points” memo to
deceive Congress and exonerate Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and
President Barack Obama from responsibility in the deadly attack. Trump
nixed that appointment. However, McMaster did succeed in bringing Kris
Bauman, a radical Hamas-PLO apologist, to be NSC point man on Israel.
Having made many unwise appointments, President Trump is now finding
himself increasingly surrounded by avowed enemies and smiling
backstabbers. The McMaster appointment could prove to be one of the most
disastrous choices, since the NSC chief and his minions already are
playing a crucial role in what are obviously Deep State efforts to
remove President Trump. Whether that ultimately comes down to
Plan A, Plan B, or Plan C,
McMaster will be a key establishment agent in issuing critical orders
to carry it out, most especially if it comes to Plan C — removing the
president by assassination.
These are, obviously, very, very serious charges, and we would not be
entertaining the possibility that such heinous, criminal schemes could
actually be in the offing except for the fact that steadily mounting
evidence points inescapably to that conclusion. The methodical setting
up of pieces and removing of others, together with the coordinated,
relentless Fake News campaign, shows a chess board in play in which the
enemies of freedom are moving toward checkmate.
President Trump still has a window of opportunity to forestall a
coup, but his time may be running out. McMaster is the swamp creature
who, arguably, now presents the greatest internal threat not only to the
president’s agenda, but to his life. President Trump should listen to
his loyal base, which has been urging him to fire McMaster for the past
several months. If he fails to do so, he puts not only himself but the
entire nation at risk; a political coup (whether by Plan A, B, or C)
would throw the republic into a constitutional crisis, one which would
likely prove fatal for freedom. McMaster should go — Now!
