You all together are how we got here, it's time you started paying attention [1] ['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.'] Date: 2023-11-14 I know exactly how we got here, this place between democracy and fascism. We got here because the majority of you sit by and do nothing. I never had that luxury. Acting, jumping in, those were expected of me. I had relatives who were there at the start of the OSS during WWII and post war the start of the CIA. I was born approx. 1.5 mos after the bay of pigs and spend my childhood with FBI agents in the distance. To me they were grandpa’s friends because the knew our secret language. Hand and slight movements made that language. Those movements I learned at 4 and 5 years of age saved me life in Milan, 1990. The files listed in the pic are from 1989/1990. I relocated myself to Melbourne FL right after the shuttle disaster in 1986 knowing NASA would shutter for 3yrs forcing many support civilians to find other work. I made sure I was available if I was needed. I was. I did what was needed for the constitution and democracy. It has cost me everything. I could not be paid. An agent could not have been used because the agency had a mole and whoever took the job could not be used again. I am not and never have been employed by the government. I was, however, the paperhanger, decorating crew inside the zero trust federal area at Harris Government Systems, Palm Bay, FL, 1989. I did something before hanging paper that attached my name to a satellite the USSR did not want made or deployed. I had been discussing for months with my friend Andre Oser, dual Swiss/US, the chef about going to Switzerland for the winter to help him with his drug addiction. That was, in part, part of why the CIA wanted me. What happened after no one expected. The Berlin Wall came down. The point here is I acted proactively even though I never wanted anything to do with this. I saw a need and stepped up. All I have seen from the majority of you is you sit by and do nothing. I first encountered Donald J. Trump in the spring of 1976. I was having lunch with my friend from The Harvey School, Katonah, NY James Dixon Robinson IV and his father J.D.R. III just off Park Ave, NYC. The Trumps tried to get in the restaurant without a reservation and Donnie was incapable of understanding the word no. I was 14(?) and to this day have never encountered anyone as stupid as the man the entirety of dining customers referred to as THE CONMAN FROM QUEENS. I had tried for decades to get you to listen. I watched as you all called the doorknob Donnie “The Donald”. I saw you turn in to watch that stupid show. To my horror you thought he knew what he was talking about simply because he was born rich. Why did I bother? Why did I throw away my life to protect you? Most of my friends from those months in the Alps are dead. Charlie was dead within a year, Bruno a few months later. Andre 1997 in NYC. I last saw Andre my last full day in Milan when I finally got him on the train back to Switzerland at the end of February 1990, Winter Fashion Week. None of them were connected to any inelegance agency from any country. They may well have simply been collateral damage. I was under a federal NDA for decades. As a matter of fact I thought I did not know any names of any CIA agent when I did. I found out a few years ago the guy they sent with me actually gave me his real name, Douglas London. I came from Zero Trust, we never used full names, ever. click the link and see how great life is in a Defense and Intel family actually is. You don’t know sh*t about sibling jealousy. www.linkedin.com/… Douglas is a great guy. We never had a conversation or shared a meal or beer. But I got to observe him in the field. Magic.
