*A Stolen Presidential Election
*Destruction of Federal Agencies
*Downsizing Of Federal Agency Budgets and Staffing -Through Amalgamation - Including USAID, The State Department & Defense Intelligence Agencies - To Render Them Ineffective At A Time Of National Emergency Or World Crises
No Folks, In The Above I'm Not Talking About Trump's $1.1trn Budget Cuts To These Federal Management Agencies - But The Aims And Objectives Of The Kremlin in Moscow
With Trump's $1.1trn. Proposed budget now released and the anticipated cuts in Federal programs, is this really the right time to be slashing Federal Departments and abolishing others on the grounds that they are useless and ineffective?
The only time a program is missed is when a national or international crises arises.
The below are some reasons why, far from withdrawing or reducing funding, the NIH, EPA and CDC must have substantial increases in Federal funds to keep pace with developing and future terrorist threats.
[many of the references have already been cited at other blogs over the past 3 years, You should again reference the Bioweapons Research blog for some of these.]
National emergencies such as floods, storms, tsunamis on the West or East Coast, transmissible disease outbreaks, viral pandemics across Southern States (Zika virus for example), bioterrorism, all stand less chance of being effectively dealt with where Federal Emergency Management Agencies are either under resourced or even abolished (the Environmental Protection Agency for example.)
Playing Into The Kremlin's Hands
Technology is giving new possibilities for warfare on scales hitherto dreamed about.
For these reasons alone the role and scope of Federal agencies need to be extended not abolished.
You may recall several years ago I described a 'scenario' where your own household device could be used to 'assassinate'. The hypothetical scenario I gave was the proverbial Russian VIP driving his/her hi-tech car. The car itself having been being 'reprogrammed' to 'assassinate' by 'driving itself' off a cliff on a high mountain pass.
[The scenarios made popular in films – such as terrorists hijacking nuclear plants, aeroplanes, the electric grid by use of new technologies are indeed very real.]
Do you remember the fictional film with Mel Gibson where his daughter was murdered because of what she was investigating at a nuclear establishment? He himself was poisoned with a radioactive substance being added to the milk in his fridge. Do you recall where he reclined as he drank it because it 'tasted off'? This film was made long before the 'use' of such substances became (apparently?) as 'popular' as they are today for similar tasks.
As 'smart' technology at the nanoscale (programmable matter) becomes more widely available the possibilities for military applications are endless. (See the reference section to learn what is programmable matter.)
So the whole concepts of 'warfare', urban terrorism and global conflict and are changing beyond anything we (or indeed the public as a whole) can would care (or dare) to imagine.
Merging (integrating or downsizing, whatever you want to call it) intelligence agencies because of a Presidential 'whim' is, to be frank, either crazy or treasonable. As an act of revenge by Trump it is just sheer madness – more akin to Caligula in ancient Rome than to any more recent world ruler of a superpower.
9/11 Should Have Been A Wake Up Call For Increased Federal Emergency Management Funding But The Lessons Have Already Been Forgotten – by Donald Trump
Under Trump's proposed budget, the only available response will be the military since FEMA, NIH, CDC and other critical centers and institutes will be starved of resources at a time when terrorism using biowarfare – and indeed conventional attacks - will be even more a threat as the physical defeat of the Islamic State morphs into a new globalized 'Jihad' – the virtual Caliphate – worldwide. The Islamic State has been preparing for this for some time and I have no doubt that their 'experts' have already removed themselves from the battle zone – to fight another place, day and time.
International Protocols and Rules For The Conduct of War and Treatment of Prisoners
I said some years ago that you needed a strong constitution to stomach ISIS atrocities.
This was long before the mainstream media started reporting their horrific acts against civilians and prisoners of war. I had an opportunity to read through their literature quite regularly. It was very well produced. This propaganda has now dispersed worldwide – as will their acolytes.
[On this one issue alone I agree with Donald J . Trump – but not because I rely on 'second-hand' news from Fox Television Network.]
What were accepted 'norms' and rules (if you can call 'warfare' 'normal') of conflict and treatment of prisoners of war – as laid down in the Geneva and Vienna Conventions - are only useful for so long as countries (and insurgency movements – which are excluded as non-state actors) accept they have any relevance. I will give just one example:
ISIS considered roasting a human being alive in a metal cage and prodding him with a metal rod to ensure that he 'cooked' well until his charred body remained, was 'fair game' to 'broadcast' and 'stream' to a worldwide audience via the internet – initially at many websites across the internet anyone could visit.
So clearly ISIS have had no time for any international protocols governing rules for the conduct of war.
Another memorable incident was the 75 year-old, alleged gay Syrian, strapped to a chair and thrown from top of a block of flats – his bloodied remains on the concrete tarmac below to be spat on and kicked by children and adults alike.
Believe me, these are the 'new norms' for 'warfare' where religion and tribalism abound – these are not the one-off aberrations the mainstream media would wish you to dismiss as just the work of lunatics or fanatics.
To be cutting back on agencies whose specific job is to both assess and combat these new threats, at this very particular time, is a historical mistake of huge significance.
Let me take a further more recent example:
What happens when military technology is racing so far ahead in the developed world that it is rendering all such conventions and laws obsolete?
Kim Jong Nam - Deja Vu?
We all know about the assassination of Kim Jong Nam.
But how many 'others' have there been whose deaths have been ascribed to 'natural causes'?
The Litvinenko case is yet another high profile assassination. But what happens where the effective toxic agent 'dissipates within the blood stream of the target leaving no toxicological evidence except, perhaps, for example, 'heart failure' caused by apparently events entirely medically consistent with the John Doe's sudden death?
This is not science fiction nor Hollywood speculation.
The fact that 'heart failure' or brain haemorrhage is the coroner's recorded conclusion is of little relevance where synthetic neurotoxins which disperse rapidly have been used as biowarfare weapons. Where toxicological reports all show negative, how many coroners are trained to go
'the extra miles' to identify a bioweapon or neurotoxin as the likely 'assassin'?
How many are trained (or skilled enough) to 'connect' the 'missing links'?
It is key bodies such as the NIH which have considerable oversight and research roles, in addition to their more important functions. Such Federal agencies play a key role, working with the CDC and others previously mentioned, to heighten awareness so that in the event of a nationwide biowarfare attack, similar to Pearl Harbour or 9/11, it will be the Federal agencies capabilities and resources which will be active in both the short and medium term responses to the emergency.
There are no agencies in the private sector which will voluntarily resource and logistically support such crises aftermaths – as primary nor as secondary responders.
As the United Nations looses its relevance in the modern world, the dangers of the above all increase exponentially.
This is one President who has little time for 'global (U.S.) enslavement bodies such as the United Nations.
If President Trump has no time for diplomacy bodies such as the United Nations, to resolve disputes, be assured future religious fringe movements and religious and tribal insurgency groups will likewise take note.
The Greatest Cuts In Federal Spending in 50 Years
The Trump administration is in the process of preparing plans for the greatest cuts in Federal Programs ever seen in the modern post-second world war history of the United States.
All of these cuts, to vital media and humanitarian organizations, will devastate
and diminish U.S. influence in the world.
America has elected a President whose priorities are, interestingly, similar to those of the Chinese Philosopher Confucius: America for Americans. America first. Foreigners not welcome – unless
they share our 'genetic affiliation', culture, religion, ideology, customs and similar perceptions of 'outsiders'.
Confucianism
Most readers will be probably unaware that the predominance of Confucianism as a political ideology in China between the 15th century up until fairly recent times was probably, all other things being equal, the reason you and I do not speak Mandarin nor Cantonese today.
China had ships at least 3 times the size of those of Christopher Columbus, sailing to far distant lands and would easily have reached the Pacific West Coast but for a new ideology which 'Great Walled' China off from the rest of the 'barbarian' world.
To put it in a nutshell, Confucianism is akin to extreme nationalism and fascism where the most important emphasis is on 'blood' and racial genetics.
Confucianism effectively halted Chinese expansionism beyond it's borders.
With this particular ideology, all foreigners (with the exceptions mentioned as above) were perceived as 'barbarians' so no effort should be made to 'incorporate' them within the realm of 'civilized' China.
It has taken over 500 years for China to recognize the terrible mistake made, and even today, there is no public acknowledgement in China of this monumental error – because it is too painful to accept – that the world could long ago have been colonized and ruled by 'Pax China' rather than 'Pax Americana'; but for this quirk of history.
[I said in a television interview (applicable to Trump but two years before he was running for Office) such individuals are 'well-connected' but ignorant of the world they have stewardship of.]
Comint and Humint -Where The Rubber Meets The Road
Trump's proposed budget cuts will focus resources away from humint (human intelligence) and almost exclusively into military comint (communications intelligence.) ignorant of the fact that you must have both resources on the ground.
This will, in the course of events, prove a total disaster – only to be realised in the event of major global crises where the input of different impartial data (as opposed to Fox News 'hearsay') becomes critical.
Even more critical is the ability of a President to actually listen to counsel – from agencies he has no trust in. A major world crisis involving President Trump, where the response is fatally flawed, is already an almost certainty.

Please could you note that the reference below – Breitbart - is an extremist 'one can short of a six pack' media internet outlet – but it is what Donald trump's supporters regard as 'true' not 'fake' news
It is organisations such as those below that Trump regards as 'dangerous' and wants to either abolish or drastically reduce funding to:
use of radiological weapons for assassinations (one open sourced example)

Synthetic Toxins As weapons For Warfare:
http://online.liebertpub.com/doi/abs/10.1089/153871303769201815

Just to add, with availability of basic technology on a worldwide scale synthetic toxins are not as difficult to produce – if you know what you are doing - as they once were assumed to be.
They might as well be called 'the poor man's nuclear weapons'.
The challenge is not their production and cultivation but their handling, encasement, storage and directed delivery.
Fortunately, for the moment at least, the skills involved rarely (if ever) 'tilt' towards terrorists.
To put it in a nutshell, nobody is yet crazy enough to be providing the 'know-how' to facilitate the use either of bioweapons, binary or tertiary weapons nor synthetic weapons for mass carnage.
[History shows that it is only a matter of time before such events transpire – and considering their relative ease of development – it is a certainty for the future.]
