Tracking 20,000+ politically embedded operatives
Using whistleblower intel to map “trust networks”
Shutting down illegal grant pipelines and activist operations
Finding pallets of Rules for Radicals books ready for nationwide distribution
Why Trump’s first term failed on personnel — and the danger of repeating that mistake
How bureaucratic sabotage happens daily inside every agency

👉A masterclass in government reform — and a warning about what happens if we don’t get it right this time.
