Sounds like a firm that needs lots of digging.
23 High-Ranking Officials in Biden Administration All Came from the Same Shadowy Firm
Many of the highest-ranking members of the Biden administration came from the same shadowy firm. It is a relatively new name among revolving-door power brokers in Washington D.C., which makes it all the more surprising.
Founded in 2017, WestExec describes itself as a "diverse group of senior national security professionals with the most recent experience at the highest levels of the U.S. government. With deep knowledge and networks in the fields of defense, foreign policy, intelligence, cybersecurity, international economics, and strategic communications, our team has worked together around the White House Situation Room table, deliberating and deciding our nation's foreign and national security policies."
WestExec Advisors gets its name from "West Executive Avenue," which the official site says is "the closed street that runs between the West Wing of the White House and the Eisenhower Executive Office Building. It is, quite literally, the road to the Situation Room, and it is the road everyone associated with WestExec Advisors has crossed many times en route to meetings of the highest national security consequence."
At least we can rest easy that it hasn't been President Joe Biden who has been calling the shots. But a closer look at WestExec Advisers finds that it manages portfolios for some of the biggest companies in the world, drawing concerns about private companies co-opting U.S. security and intelligence policies. However, WestExec does not publicly disclose the names of its clients, only describing them in broad terms.
"The insularity of this network of policymakers poses concerns about the potential for groupthink, conflicts of interest, and what can only be called, however oxymoronically, legalized corruption," The Intercept/American Prospect noted on WestExec's influence. "The private sector can in essence co-opt the public sector."
WestExec has staffed the administration with over 15 of its executives, who have sprawled out across the national security and intelligence apparatus. The Intercept and The American Prospect dug into these profiles, and some of the biggest names in government are among them, including:
Tony Blinken, U.S. Secretary of State; Co-founder and managing partner of WestExec
Avril Haines, Director of National Intelligence; Principal
David S. Cohen, Deputy Director at the CIA; Principal
Lisa Monaco, Deputy Attorney General; Principal
Chris Inglis, National Cyber Director; Principal
Jen Psaki, White House Press Secretary; Senior Adviser
Ely Ratner, Asst. Sec. of Defense for Indo-Pacific Security Affairs; Senior Adviser
It is an impressive list, as concerning as it might be that one security cabal could singlehandedly consolidate such influence in one presidential administration. But the list isn't finished yet.
Colin Thomas-Jensen, National Security Director for USAID; Senior Adviser
Michael Camilleri, Sr. Adviser to USAID Admin.; Senior Adviser
Gabrielle Chefitz, Special Asst. to Under Sec. of Defense for Policy; Senior Associate
Julianne Smith, Senior Adviser to Sec. of State; Senior Adviser
Barbara Leaf, Senior Director for Middle East, NSC; Senior Adviser
Elizabeth Rosenberg, Counselor to Deputy Sec. of Treasury; Senior Advisor
Matt Olsen, Asst. Attorney General; Principal
These weren't all the Biden advisers and Biden/Harris transition team members listed in the report.
"The WestExec to Biden administration pipeline, part two. Not pictured: senior adviser to the domestic policy adviser Erin Pelton; director of scheduling for the secretary of state Sarah McCool; nominee for assistant secretary of defense Celeste Wallander; Biden-Harris transition team advisers Andrea Kendall-Taylor, Cristina Killingsworth, Jay Shambaugh, and Puneet Talwar; deputy director for the U.S. Cyberspace Solarium Commission John Costello; and vice chair of the National Security Commission on Artificial Intelligence Robert O. Work."
Did you think that must be it? Wrong. There are even more in mid-tier positions throughout the administration.
"Even Bidenworld's backbenchers are entangled in the firm," the Intercept/American Prospect report states. "The Biden-Harris transition team was advised by WestExec consultants Andrea Kendall-Taylor, Puneet Talwar, Jay Shambaugh, and Cristina Killingsworth. Further, the firm's members oversee influential nonpartisan federal commissions: Robert O. Work at the National Security Commission for Artificial Intelligence and John Costello at the Cyberspace Solarium Commission."

'Q-Anon' Bears Striking Resemblance to Bolshevik Psy-Op From 1920s Known As 'Operation Trust'
"Operation Trust" was a Bolshevik counterintelligence operation run from 1921 to 1926 aimed at neutralizing opposition by creating the false impression that a powerful group of military leaders had organized to stop the communists' takeover.
Operation Trust was a counterintelligence operation of the State Political Directorate (GPU) of the Soviet Union. The operation, which was set up by GPU's predecessor Cheka, ran from 1921 to 1926, set up a fake anti-Bolshevik resistance organization, "Monarchist Union of Central Russia", MUCR, in order to help the OGPU identify real monarchists and anti-Bolsheviks.

The similarities with the Q-Anon "Trust The Plan" psy-op are remarkable.
One of the more disturbing aspects of the "Qanon" online Trump base pacification hoax is that while it claims to be fighting the "deep state" (permanent security complex) it promotes the rendition of Edward Snowden and CIA regime change in Iran. - WikiLeaks (@wikileaks) December 13, 2018
"Qanon" pushes for regime change in Iran, mirroring long held CIA, Mossad and neocon goals. - WikiLeaks (@wikileaks) June 25, 2018
Q-Anon made Trump supporters who were right to be angry over the criminal nature of our ruling class delude themselves with fantasies that "White hats" in the military were going to save us while Attorney General William Barr was busy covering-up the Jeffrey Epstein case and the Kushner administration was busy pardoning fraudsters who donated to the Aleph Institute and releasing traitor Jonathan Pollard from parole to "make aliyah" in Israel.
Donald Trump condemned his own supporters and called for them to be prosecuted to "the fullest extent of the law," just days after he chose to pardon "the king of medicare fraud" & release traitor Jonathan Pollard from parole to "make aliyah" in Israel.
Just as opposition were outed and arrested by Operation Trust, potentially dozens of Q-Anoners were outed and arrested as a result of the march on the Capitol.
FBI Director Wray says more than 100 people have been arrested in connection with the Capitol invasion and more than 200 suspects have been identified. "We know who you are, if you're out there, and FBI agents are coming to find you."
Many of the neocons in our government are the literal descendants of Trotskyites, so it's not out of the question they'd pull the same trick twice.
This Q-Anon operation has had some blowback - Q-believing Air Force veteran Ashli Babbitt was horrifically executed in cold blood by a Capitol police officer and turned into a martyr - but the movement has gotten tons of Trump supporters thrown in prison and labeled domestic terrorists.
President-elect Biden on whether Capitol rioters should be treated as domestic terrorists: "Yes ... They're a bunch of thugs, insurrectionists, white supremacists, anti-Semites ... and they're terrorists - domestic terrorists." The Biden administration is now plotting to use the events of Jan 6 to justify PATRIOT Act 2.0 which aims to criminalize all dissent as domestic terrorism.
Their neo-Bolshevik revolution is almost complete. It doesn't require "anonymous leaks" from "secret military intelligence officers" to witness the conspiratorial treachery our government is committing out in the open!

Operation Trust (???????? "?????") was a counterintelligence operation of the State Political Directorate (GPU) of the Soviet Union. The operation, which was set up by GPU's predecessor Cheka, ran from 1921 to 1926, set up a fake anti-Bolshevik resistance organization, "Monarchist Union of Central Russia", MUCR (????????????? ??????????? ??????????? ??????, ????), in order to help the OGPU identify real monarchists and anti-Bolsheviks. The created front company was called the Moscow Municipal Credit Association.
The head of the MUCR was Alexander Yakushev (????????? ????????????? ??????), a former bureaucrat of the Ministry of Communications of Imperial Russia, who after the Russian Revolution joined the Narkomat of External Trade (???????? ??????? ????????), when the Soviets began to allow the former specialists (called "spetsy", Russian: ?????) to resume the positions of their expertise. This position allowed him to travel abroad and contact Russian emigrants.
MUCR kept the monarchist general Alexander Kutepov (????????? ???????) from active actions, as he was convinced to wait for the development of internal anti-Bolshevik forces. Kutepov had previously believed in militant action as a solution to the Soviet occupation, and had formed the "combat organization", a militant splinter from the Russian All-Military Union (Russian: ??????? ????-???????? ????, Russkiy ObshcheVoinskiy Soyuz) led by General Baron Pyotr Nikolayevich Wrangel.[3] Kutepov also created the Inner Line as a counter-intelligence organization to prevent Bolshevik penetrations. It caused the Cheka some problems but was not overly successful.
Among the successes of Trust was the luring of Boris Savinkov and Sidney Reilly into the Soviet Union, where they were captured.
The Soviets did not organize Trust from scratch. The White Army had left sleeper agents, and there were also Royalist Russians who did not leave after the Civil War. These people cooperated to the point of having a loose organizational structure. When the OGPU discovered them, they did not liquidate all of them, but manoeuvred into creating a shell organization for their own use.
Still another episode of the operation was an "illegal" trip (in fact, monitored by OGPU) of a notable émigré, Vasily Shulgin, into the Soviet Union. After his return he published a book "Three Capitals" with his impressions. In the book he wrote, in part, that contrary to his expectations, Russia was reviving, and the Bolsheviks would probably be removed from power.
The one Western historian who had limited access to the Trust files, John Costello, reported that they comprised thirty-seven volumes and were such a bewildering welter of double-agents, changed code names, and interlocking deception operations with "the complexity of a symphonic score", that Russian historians from the Intelligence Service had difficulty separating fact from fantasy.
Defector Vasili Mitrokhin reported that the Trust files were not housed at the SVR offices in Yasenevo, but were kept in the special archival collections (spetsfondi) of the FSB at the Lubyanka.

The one Western historian who had limited access to the Trust files, John Costello, reported that they comprised thirty-seven volumes and were such a bewildering welter of double-agents, changed code names, and interlocking deception operations with "the complexity of a symphonic score", that Russian historians from the Intelligence Service had difficulty separating fact from fantasy.
Defector Vasili Mitrokhin reported that the Trust files were not housed at the SVR offices in Yasenevo, but were kept in the special archival collections (spetsfondi) of the FSB at the Lubyanka.

Operation Trust (???????? "?????") was a counterintelligence operation of the State Political Directorate (GPU) of the Soviet Union. The operation, which was set up by GPU's predecessor Cheka, ran from 1921 to 1926, set up a fake anti-Bolshevik resistance organization, "Monarchist Union of Central Russia", MUCR (????????????? ??????????? ??????????? ??????, ????), in order to help the OGPU identify real monarchists and anti-Bolsheviks. The created front company was called the Moscow Municipal Credit Association.
The head of the MUCR was Alexander Yakushev (????????? ????????????? ??????), a former bureaucrat of the Ministry of Communications of Imperial Russia, who after the Russian Revolution joined the Narkomat of External Trade (???????? ??????? ????????), when the Soviets began to allow the former specialists (called "spetsy", Russian: ?????) to resume the positions of their expertise.

Federal Prosecutor in DC Not Ruling Out Charging Trump Over Inciting Violence at US Capitol - Report
The US Capitol building was besieged by Trump supporters on Wednesday afternoon after the president called on citizens to continue to fight for what he called the legitimate results of the 2020 election.
A top federal prosecutor in Washington, DC has not ruled out potentially charging President Trump in connection with inciting violence at the US Capitol, CNBC News reported on Thursday.
Acting US Attorney Michael Sherwin told reporters on Thursday that the US Department of Justice was ready to initiate charges against anyone responsible for the riot at the US Capitol building, where at least four people died amid the chaos. One of the victims was identified as a female Air-Force veteran, shot inside the Congress hall by a police officer.
"I don't want to sound like a broken record. We're looking at all actors here," Sherwin said in response to the question whether President Trump could face potential charges. "Anyone who had a role and where the evidence fits a crime."
Protesters breached the Capitol as the congressional certification of Democrat Joe Biden's victory in the 2020 election was underway, forcing lawmakers to halt the meeting and leave the building immediately, with some of them having to hide in a shelter.

The events have been followed by efforts to oust President Trump, including either through invoking the 25th Amendment, which would see removing Trump from power and installing Vice President Mike Pence instead, or by initiating an impeachment procedure against the US president. The idea of impeachment has been voiced by Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer and House Speaker Nancy.
"If the vice president and the Cabinet refuse to stand up, Congress should reconvene to impeach the president", Schummer said on Thursday.
Speaker Pelosi says that if Pence and the Cabinet doesn't move on the 25th amendment she's willing to move to impeach.
"my friends we are in a very difficult place as a country as long as Donald Trump remains in The White House."
- Lewis Goodall (@lewis_goodall) January 7, 2021
The idea of launching an impeachment, however, was not echoed by President-elect Joe Biden, who supports a peaceful transition of power.
In the wake of US Capitol siege, acting Pentagon chief Christopher Miller said on Thursday that the Defense Department determined to perform its duties "in accordance with our oath of office", and will execute "the time-honored peaceful transition of power" to Biden.
Wednesday's events have prompted several Republicans to reconsider their previous intentions to support his challenge to the electoral vote certification, with US Senator Kelly Loeffler saying, "the events that have transpired today have forced me to reconsider and I cannot now in good conscious object to the certification of these electors."
As a follow-up, several high-ranking officials announced they are either resigning or going to do so, including Mick Mulvaney, President Trump's former chief of staff, who told CNBC that he stepped down as special US envoy to Northern Ireland.
US Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao, the wife of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, announced her resignation on Thursday, saying "our country experienced a traumatic and entirely avoidable event as supporters of the president stormed the Capitol building following a rally he addressed".
Others who have decided to leave the Trump administration include Stephanie Grisham, former chief of staff to First Lady Melania Trump; Matt Pottinger, the deputy national security adviser; Sarah Matthews, deputy White House press secretary; Anna Cristina "Rickie" Niceta, social secretary at the White House; Ryan Tully, the National Security Council's senior director for European and Russian Affairs; Tyler Goodspeed, acting chairman of the White House Council of Economic Advisers; and John Costello, deputy assistant secretary for intelligence and security at the Commerce Department.
In another blow to President Trump, tech giants suspended his social media accounts on Wednesday night, blocking the US president from a nearly 150-million audience.

Multiple Trump admin officials resign following D.C. riot
Several White House staffers have resigned after violent protests broke out in Washington D.C. Wednesday.
First lady Melania Trump's Chief of Staff Stephanie Grisham was the first to submit her resignation Wednesday, effective immediately.
Grisham joined the presidential campaign in 2015 as a press liaison and most recently served as White House communications director and Melania Trump's spokeswoman.
Grisham quit her position after a violent mob stormed the U.S. Capitol building Wednesday. Her job was set to end in two weeks, when President-elect Joe Biden is sworn in.
"It has been an honor to serve the country in the White House. I am very proud to have been a part of Mrs. Trump's mission to help children everywhere, and proud of the many accomplishments of this Administration," Grisham said in a statement Wednesday.
Following Grisham's resignation, White House social secretary Rickie Niceta and deputy White House press secretary Sarah Matthews, also resigned.
"As someone who worked in the halls of Congress, I was deeply disturbed by what I saw today. I'll be stepping down from my role effective immediately. Our nation needs a peaceful transfer of power," Matthews said in a statement Wednesday.
Thursday morning, former Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney resigned from his Trump Administration post as envoy to Northern Ireland.
"I called Mike Pompeo last night to let him know I was resigning from that. I can't do it. I can't stay ... We didn't sign up for what you saw last night," Mulvaney told CNBC Thursday.
Mulvaney was critical of how President Trump handled the demonstration, saying his tweet was "not enough."
The President's tweet is not enough. He can stop this now and needs to do exactly that. Tell these folks to go home.

Additionally, deputy national security adviser Matt Pottinger, European and Russian Affairs Senior Director Ryan Tully and Assistant Secretary for Intelligence and Security John Costello also resigned, according to Fox News.
Mulvaney warned that other staffers may submit their resignations in the coming days.
National Security Adviser Robert O'Brien, Deputy Chief of Staff Chris Liddell and Transportation Secretary Eliane Chao are also considering resigning, the New York Post has reported.

Looks like Britain has been bugging our political office holders for a long time. Even when JPK Sr., John F Kennedy's dad was an ambassador to Britain.
In their eagerness to trap Kennedy, the British security services had his phones bugged. Embassy cars were stopped on a pretext and covertly searched. The Charge d'Affaires, Herschel Johnson, was bombarded in Kennedy's absences with dark hints about the leaking to the Germans of the ambassador's cables to Washington. On 20 May 1940, just days before Dunkirk, the British sprang their trap. Tyler Kent, a cipher clerk at the embassy, was arrested on a charge of stealing almost 2,000 of its top-secret telegrams. The record of Kent's interrogation by Kennedy before he was handed over to the British has been uncovered by historian John Costello. The ambassador's fury is palpable. He had to admit to Roosevelt that their secret correspondence had been filched and decoded; he could not guarantee the security of the embassy's communications. He had been neatly stitched up by Churchill, who could feel sure that the most dangerous opponent of American involvement in the war had been discredited.

QRB General #384: Celebrations Over, Fight Never Is Edition
Sounds like a firm that needs lots of digging.
23 High-Ranking Officials in Biden Administration All Came from the Same Shadowy Firm
Many of the highest-ranking members of the Biden administration came from the same shadowy firm. It is a relatively new name among revolving-door power brokers in Washington D.C., which makes it all the more surprising.
Founded in 2017, WestExec describes itself as a "diverse group of senior national security professionals with the most recent experience at the highest levels of the U.S. government. With deep knowledge and networks in the fields of defense, foreign policy, intelligence, cybersecurity, international economics, and strategic communications, our team has worked together around the White House Situation Room table, deliberating and deciding our nation's foreign and national security policies."
WestExec Advisors gets its name from "West Executive Avenue," which the official site says is "the closed street that runs between the West Wing of the White House and the Eisenhower Executive Office Building. It is, quite literally, the road to the Situation Room, and it is the road everyone associated with WestExec Advisors has crossed many times en route to meetings of the highest national security consequence."
At least we can rest easy that it hasn't been President Joe Biden who has been calling the shots. But a closer look at WestExec Advisers finds that it manages portfolios for some of the biggest companies in the world, drawing concerns about private companies co-opting U.S. security and intelligence policies. However, WestExec does not publicly disclose the names of its clients, only describing them in broad terms.
"The insularity of this network of policymakers poses concerns about the potential for groupthink, conflicts of interest, and what can only be called, however oxymoronically, legalized corruption," The Intercept/American Prospect noted on WestExec's influence. "The private sector can in essence co-opt the public sector."
WestExec has staffed the administration with over 15 of its executives, who have sprawled out across the national security and intelligence apparatus. The Intercept and The American Prospect dug into these profiles, and some of the biggest names in government are among them, including:
Tony Blinken, U.S. Secretary of State; Co-founder and managing partner of WestExec
Avril Haines, Director of National Intelligence; Principal
David S. Cohen, Deputy Director at the CIA; Principal
Lisa Monaco, Deputy Attorney General; Principal
Chris Inglis, National Cyber Director; Principal
Jen Psaki, White House Press Secretary; Senior Adviser
Ely Ratner, Asst. Sec. of Defense for Indo-Pacific Security Affairs; Senior Adviser
It is an impressive list, as concerning as it might be that one security cabal could singlehandedly consolidate such influence in one presidential administration. But the list isn't finished yet.
Colin Thomas-Jensen, National Security Director for USAID; Senior Adviser
Michael Camilleri, Sr. Adviser to USAID Admin.; Senior Adviser
Gabrielle Chefitz, Special Asst. to Under Sec. of Defense for Policy; Senior Associate
Julianne Smith, Senior Adviser to Sec. of State; Senior Adviser
Barbara Leaf, Senior Director for Middle East, NSC; Senior Adviser
Elizabeth Rosenberg, Counselor to Deputy Sec. of Treasury; Senior Advisor
Matt Olsen, Asst. Attorney General; Principal
These weren't all the Biden advisers and Biden/Harris transition team members listed in the report.
"The WestExec to Biden administration pipeline, part two. Not pictured: senior adviser to the domestic policy adviser Erin Pelton; director of scheduling for the secretary of state Sarah McCool; nominee for assistant secretary of defense Celeste Wallander; Biden-Harris transition team advisers Andrea Kendall-Taylor, Cristina Killingsworth, Jay Shambaugh, and Puneet Talwar; deputy director for the U.S. Cyberspace Solarium Commission John Costello; and vice chair of the National Security Commission on Artificial Intelligence Robert O. Work."
Did you think that must be it? Wrong. There are even more in mid-tier positions throughout the administration.
"Even Bidenworld's backbenchers are entangled in the firm," the Intercept/American Prospect report states. "The Biden-Harris transition team was advised by WestExec consultants Andrea Kendall-Taylor, Puneet Talwar, Jay Shambaugh, and Cristina Killingsworth. Further, the firm's members oversee influential nonpartisan federal commissions: Robert O. Work at the National Security Commission for Artificial Intelligence and John Costello at the Cyberspace Solarium Commission."
