   Perhaps if I expand the list, a bigger understanding will be possible.

   This time I shall endeavor to put context behind the names and add some specifics to the silo challenge.

   Secretary of State: Ric Grenell.

   UN Ambassador: Tulsi Gabbard

   The Dept of State is the front agency for the Central Intelligence Agency. When the CIA wants to seed an operative, they are given State Dept credentials. Whoever is running the State Dept will have a working relationship with the CIA Director. Grenell already knows how this works; he will be able to support the Trump Doctrine on day one with a full understanding of institutional context as the downsizing through attrition begins.

   CIA Director: Robert Kennedy Jr.

   Deputy CIA Director: Kash Patel

   See how that works? RFK Jr. can put up or shut up, but Kash Patel is the insurance policy in the event RFK Jr. is bearing false witness. The core agenda is carried out by the Deputy, while the Director is the functionary receiving silo information to satiate the executive (Trump). What happens in the layers below the functionary are what really matters. Kash has eyes-on, without the distractions of the functionary role.

   Defense Secretary: Vivek Ramaswamy.

   Asst. Defense Secretary: Eric Prince.

   Many people understandably freak out with a Def Sec with no experience in military. However, the Def Sec is designed to be civilian led military; the President is the Commander in Chief. The Def Sec executes military efforts to support the President. This is the problem with having career military as Def Sec; they regard the institution as more important than the instructions they receive. [See Mark Milley and/or James Mattis and/or Alexander Vindman, they go rogue.] The U.S. military needs to be managed now, brought to heel and Wokeism removed. Ramaswamy, a functionary, can put up or shut up.

   Again, see how that works? Prince becomes the insurance policy. The nuts-and-bolts guy to make sure the military silo is carefully reconstructed, and the flag officers that need to be removed and replaced are removed and replaced.

   National Security Advisor: John Ratcliffe

   National Security Council (NSC), Chair: Michael Flynn [Tasked with taking NSC from current size to 30-50]

   Dept of Homeland Security (DHS), Secretary: Tom Homan

   Treasury Secretary: (Executive Privilege)

   Fed Chairman: (Executive Privilege)

   United State Trade Representative: Ambassador Robert Lighthizer [restart where he left off]

   Commerce Secretary: Peter Navarro

   Chairman of the National Economic Council (NEC), Chair: Lou Dobbs

   Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Administrator: Sarah Palin

   Federal Communication Commission (FCC), Commissioner: Mike Benz

   Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CPFB), Administrator: Pam Bondi

   Dept of Agriculture, Secretary: Kristi Noem

   FBI Director: Matt Gaetz / Josh Hawley

   Deputy FBI Director: Andrew Bailey

   FBI Legal Counsel: Rudy Giuliani

   DOJ Attorney General: Ken Paxton

   DOJ Deputy AG: John Eastman

   Asst. Deputy AG in charge of DOJ National Security Division (DOJ-NSD): Sidney Powell

   DOJ Civil Rights Division: Mark Robinson

   Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI): Rand Paul

   National Security Agency, Director: Thomas Massie

   FEMA Director: Jeb Bush [Yes, THAT Jeb Bush. He’s insufferable at everything else, but he knows how to handle emergency management very effectively, and he’s bilingual.]

   Office of Management and Budgets (OMB), Director: Kevin Hassett

   Interior Secretary: Marjorie Taylor Greene

   WH Press Secretary: Kerri Kupec

   WH Communications Director: Amanda Milius

   White House Chief of Staff: Dan Scavino (no question), or Kari Lake

   White House Presidential Personnel Office (PPO), Director: Steve Bannon

   WH PPO Deputy Director: Catherine Englebrecht
   Something like that….
