How a covert intelligence campaign reshaped American politics and weakened Trump

The author argues that a network of intelligence officials and related agencies orchestrated a long-term operation that targeted Donald Trump, influencing elections and pandemic policies, ultimately deepening national division.

The article likens recent U.S. events to a Shakespearean betrayal, claiming that intelligence officials and the FBI presented themselves as protectors of democratic norms while secretly engineering a Russia-collusion investigation that evolved into a sustained legal offensive against Donald Trump. It asserts that these actors later dictated COVID-19 measures that privileged big-tech and large retailers, while imposing harsh restrictions on small businesses and individuals.

The author suggests the underlying motive was to engineer a managed decline of U.S. sovereignty toward a Euro-socialist framework, with Trump as the chief impediment. This strategy, he argues, fostered a climate of fear that allowed radical factions to dominate the Democratic Party and eroded ties with labor unions such as the Teamsters. The piece concludes that, although the plot failed to remove Trump, it inflicted lasting damage on the republic and will continue to affect American politics.
