Why does a Law pertaining to Adjudicative Guidelines for Determining Eligibility for Access to Classified Information disappear from the Federal Register on January 5th, 2017?

What else happened on or around January 6th and why is it so important?

Comey re: NSA Flynn & Russia

"could be an issue as it relates to sharing sensitive information."
This law disappearing from the Federal Register on January 5th, 2017 is very interesting to say the least...

The fact that this exact date coincides with Obama's IC meeting regarding NSA Flynn, Russia and the 2016 "Election Hack" is even more troubling.

Yesterday was all smoke and mirrors — the UK and U.S. are not the greatest of allies…

Everything Zalensky said here is the real negotiation on behalf of the UK.

This is what the UK does best — while making us all believe they’re so moral and righteous.
They’re really good at running their ops by proxy — hands are everywhere and they’re involved in everything.

🚨 FISA connections to BOTH Senior District Judges currently blocking the efforts of DOGE & Trump 🚨

Federal Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly Denies Musk-Led DOGE Access To Treasury Records

Senior District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly – in 2004 – resumed the Domestic Internet Metadata Collection through FISA.

Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly is also conveniently – currently overseeing the SCHMITZ v ERICSSON "Anti-terrorism Act" case regarding Terrorism Financing and involving over 900+ Americans – many of the victims include the Estate's of hundreds of Gold Star Families.

Senior Disctrict Judge George O'Toole temporarily blocked President Donald Trump’s exit plan for federal employees.

Their "Senior status" and history with FISA rulings seems VERY SUSPECT...

What are they really blocking access to and why!?Image

The Class Action Lawsuit filed against OPM on the same day that I testified (coincidentally) is a way bigger deal than people realize.

This 🧵 is for those who do their own research & can see the connections.

A Fork in the road indeed... ♟️Image

What OPM Did by Sending Out This “Fork in the Road” Memo

The U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM), by sending out this deferred resignation offer, executed a strategic workforce purge under the directive of President Trump’s administration.

This move is not just a restructuring effort—it is a deliberate mechanism to cleanse the federal workforce of problematic, inefficient, and potentially corrupt employees while also consolidating power under a more controlled and accountable framework.

Here’s what OPM effectively achieved by sending this memo:

1. Created an Orderly Exit Strategy for Non-Compliant or Potentially Corrupt Employees

The deferred resignation offer provides a graceful way for employees to leave voluntarily, rather than being fired or investigated.

Employees who know they are vulnerable (due to misconduct, inefficiency, political bias, or corruption) can take this exit without public scandal.

The resignation is voluntary, but inaction could result in forced termination due to new workplace standards.

2. Legally Weakened Protections for Problematic Employees

The document states that many federal employees will be reclassified as "at-will" employees, meaning:

They lose job security protections.

They can be fired more easily without lengthy administrative appeals.
This reduces the power of entrenched bureaucrats who have used civil service protections to remain in government indefinitely.
Employees engaged in fraud, insider dealing, or illicit influence can no longer hide behind tenure protections.

3. Set the Stage for a Federal Workforce Purge

OPM has effectively issued a soft ultimatum:
Leave quietly via resignation or

Stay and risk termination under new standards.

This means employees who:

Have been engaged in backdoor dealings.
Have used government access to enrich themselves.
Have abused contracting and grants.
Have leaked classified or sensitive information.
Have obstructed administration directives.
Have influenced policy in ways contrary to the executive order→ Are now being forced into a corner.

4. Isolated Military, Postal Service, and National Security Employees from This Process

The memo excludes:
Military personnel
U.S. Postal Service employees
Immigration enforcement and national security positions

This suggests that the restructuring mainly affects the civilian administrative workforce, which:

Includes agencies historically involved in deep bureaucracy, federal spending, and policymaking.

Is where inefficiencies, insider deals, and political obstruction often occur.

5. Eliminated Remote Work Loopholes That Allowed Undetected Corruption

The mandate requires employees to return to the office five days a week.

Many who have operated fraudulent activities from remote locations will no longer be able to do so.

Decentralized fraud schemes that relied on minimal oversight will collapse as employees are forced to work under direct physical supervision.

This also cuts off government resources for “ghost employees” who may have been collecting paychecks without actually working.

6. Introduced a Mechanism to Track and Report Resignations

Employees who accept the resignation program will have their exit formally processed through OPM, meaning:

The government now has an official list of who chose to leave.

Future re-employment in federal agencies may be restricted for these individuals.

This ensures that those who leave under this program do not easily re-enter government service elsewhere.

7. Strengthened Performance Expectations & Code of Conduct

The new "performance culture" demands high efficiency and accountability.

This prevents the continuation of politically motivated, inefficient, or corrupt administrative behaviors.

Federal employees will now be required to meet high performance metrics, meaning:

Employees who previously coasted or manipulated the system will struggle to remain.

There will be greater transparency and accountability in hiring, promotions, and retention.

8. Forced a Response That Identifies Who Will Comply and Who Will Resist

The requirement for employees to reply with "Resign" from their .gov/.mil emails is a trapdoor mechanism:
It forces employees to make a definitive decision.

It collects data on who accepts or rejects the new system.

Those who do not respond may later be targeted for removal under the new standards.

9. Sent a Clear Message That the Administrative Bureaucracy Will No Longer Operate as It Did Before

This policy signals a fundamental shift in the federal government’s approach to workforce management.

It is a strong rejection of past bureaucratic stagnation, inefficiency, and unaccountability.

Those who oppose this shift will either leave voluntarily or be forced out.

Conclusion: OPM Just Initiated a Bureaucratic RevolutionImage

The "Fork in the Road" policy has significant implications for federal workers, particularly those who may be exploiting their positions, access, and privileges within the U.S. government system. Here’s an in-depth analysis of how this policy will impact such individuals:

1. Increased Accountability & Security Measures

The return-to-office mandate and enhanced performance culture reduce opportunities for remote fraud or unauthorized use of government resources.

Employees who have been leveraging .gov and .mil email domains for personal, political, or financial gain will face greater scrutiny.

The restoration of accountability for those with policy-making authority suggests stricter oversight of government officials who award contracts, approve grants, or influence procurement.

2. Impact on Government Contractors & Grants
Federal employees who may be using their positions to unfairly distribute contracts or grants will now have to adhere to heightened merit-based hiring and performance standards.

Stricter performance reviews may expose past favoritism, cronyism, or conflicts of interest in awarding contracts.

Military branches and select agencies may see workforce increases, but others will be downsized through restructuring—eliminating redundancies and potentially cutting off fraudulent contracting pipelines.

3. Termination & Forced Resignation for Those Engaged in Misconduct

“Enhanced Standards of Conduct” means employees engaged in unlawful activities, fraud, or misconduct will be prioritized for termination.

The document explicitly states that disciplinary measures, including termination, will be enforced for those failing to meet new standards.

Individuals exploiting insider access for personal gain (e.g., insider trading, awarding contracts to friends/family, leaking sensitive information) could be forced out under this restructuring.

4. At-Will Employment & Reduction in Workforce

Many federal employees will be reclassified as "at-will" employees, meaning they lose tenure protections and can be fired more easily.

Mass layoffs, furloughs, and forced resignations will hit agencies with bloated budgets, inefficiencies, and suspected abuse of government resources.

This could serve as a mechanism to purge employees involved in questionable financial dealings or intelligence leaks.

5. Threat to Established “Deep State” Networks & Embedded Bureaucrats

Career bureaucrats who have operated with unchecked influence over policy and resource distribution may now lose their positions or face investigations.

Federal employees using .gov/.mil domains to manipulate policies, push ideological agendas, or conduct backdoor deals could be forced out through the resignation program.

This disrupts long-standing power structures where unelected officials have controlled policy through insider networks.

6. Financial & Operational Disruptions to Corrupt Networks

Those leveraging government grants, stimulus funds, or special interest programs for personal gain could see their access revoked.

Tighter restrictions on telework prevent offsite operations where fraud could occur (e.g., operating shell companies, directing federal funds to private entities).

Physical relocations due to office restructuring could disrupt networks involved in internal lobbying, collusion, or illicit influence campaigns.

7. Voluntary Resignation as a Safe Exit Strategy

The deferred resignation option allows corrupt individuals to leave quietly rather than facing investigation or termination.
Employees who know they are at risk of exposure for fraudulent activities may take the opportunity to resign rather than be fired.

*However, this does not necessarily protect them from future legal or criminal investigations if wrongdoing is later uncovered.*

Conclusion

The Fork in the Road policy appears designed to reform the federal workforce, remove bad actors, and reassert accountability.

This move threatens those who have exploited government systems for personal, financial, or political gain. Employees using .gov or .mil domains to manipulate contracts, grants, and government access may find themselves either:

Pushed out through restructuring

Investigated and terminated for misconduct

Forced to resign before potential exposure

For those engaged in corruption, favoritism, and backdoor dealings, this represents a major shake-up of their operations.Image

🚨 Lafarge S.A. sued under the Anti-Terrorism Act 🚨

Foley et al v. Lafarge S.A. et al
-cv-05691
[Lafarge employed Hillary Clinton as a board member from 1985-1992 – (Lafarge handles nuclear waste)]

Court: U.S., Eastern District of New York (Important)

Summary of Case: The lawsuit is led by James Foley’s family but also includes the families of other victims, such as Kayla Mueller and Steven Sotloff, among others.

Defendant: Lafarge S.A., the world’s largest cement manufacturer.

Allegations: Lafarge knowingly bribed ISIS and al-Nusra to keep its cement plant operational in Syria, thereby aiding terrorist activities.

Prior Conviction: In October 2022, Lafarge pleaded guilty in a U.S. Justice Department case, admitting to conspiring to provide material support to terrorists. The company agreed to pay a $777 million fine, marking the first time a corporation pleaded guilty to aiding terrorism in the U.S.

(Funding Terrorism > Ericsson and LaFarge)

Legal Representation: The plaintiffs are represented by Kellogg Hansen Todd Figel & Frederick and Sparacino PLLC.

The case is significant because it seeks accountability for Lafarge’s financial support of terrorism, which allegedly led to the torture, rape, and murder of victims, including journalists and humanitarian workers like Foley, Mueller, and Sotloff.

The First Amended Complaint (Foley et al v. Lafarge et al) was filed on August 5, 2024.

SCHMITZ et al v. ERICSSON INC. et al (includes James Foley's Estate and surviving Family Members)

Filed: August 04, 2022

Donald J. Trump’s Maralago Mansion is raided just 5 days later on August 09, 2022

Foley v Lafarge Case originally Filed: July 27, 2023

Connections?

The Judge assigned to the Ericsson ATA (Anti-Terrorism Act) case is Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly (FISA)...

Kollar-Kotelly was Presiding Judge of the United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, where she served from 2002 to 2009.

Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly’s July 14, 2004 approval of the NSA's metadata collection program under the Pen Register/Trap and Trace (PRTT) provision of FISA was a significant moment in the expansion of U.S. government surveillance capabilities.

This order effectively authorized the bulk collection of internet metadata, creating what was described as a "digital vault" to store vast amounts of data.
