The Ultimate Turnaround Guy!

Published / by Lee Kessler / 2 Comments on The Ultimate Turnaround Guy!

I was married to a world-class turnaround guy until his passing in 2008.   During our marriage I came to understand–up close and personal–what a turnaround guy has to know, what they do, and the risks they take.

Businessmen who do turnarounds are brought into failing enterprises and entities to find out why the organization is declining, who is involved, and how to figure out a solution which turns the stats around, and saves the company.

Shockingly, when he was first explaining to me the “string pulling” type of investigation he would be hired to do, he said, “I can always find the Who, Lee.   I can always find out Why.   But, I have to get them before they get me, physically, financially, or psychologically.”   In other words, his work involved finding out who deliberately and maliciously was tanking the company–Why they were doing it, and how they were doing it.   And it was further his job to put a spotlight on them, and bring them out into the open, and to “justice.”  Though I did not know him then, he told me of an assignment where he and his partner were hired to find suspected corruption in HUD.  He described it as his most physically dangerous assignment, where they had to change hotels every night to avoid assassination.   Three cars were blown up under them, and they survived.  Dangerous work–helping the American taxpayer!

What he told me next, was even more unsettling.   “It is always an inside job.   And, it is always at or near the top.”   Think about it.   You own a company, or run a charity, or an agency of government and the very people you have chosen to fulfill the mission and expand the company may be people who will make certain the mission is never accomplished.   Worse yet, they will be close to you, and in positions of power.   They are trusted.   That makes the betrayal all the more painful, and also insures they can remain hidden.   The reason for that–we don’t suspect that those we entrusted with our dream could actually be working to destroy it.  So, we look elsewhere.   We create other “reasons why” the stats are declining.   We chase other red herrings.   All the while, the culprit or culprits continue their sabotage.

In case you don’t understand Donald J. Trump, he is a turnaround guy.   Whether he intended to be or not, he is.   The American people sent him into the “swamp” to figure out and fix the decline of our economy, our education, our military, our security, and our global position and influence.  His role now involves, whether he wants it or not, finding the seditious people, and isolating their activities.

My experience with my husband prepared me to face the unthinkable.   It is an “inside job.”   It is at, or near, the top:  Inside the State Department, the Defense Department, the Justice Department, the Federal Reserve, or most insidious of all–the Intelligence Community which by definition hides in the shadows and plays dirty tricks.  The players will be Directors, Deputy Directors, and other job titles that put the person close to the Director level.

I believe to survive as a free country we must identify these people, bring them into daylight, extract confessions of what they did, who they did it with, when they did it, and most important of all, Why they did it.  Then, perhaps we won’t have to drain the swamp; Just clean the swamp.

Because the good news about turnaround guys is that once they find the source and handle it, the stats reverse and the company or organization starts to flourish again.

Simple.   The “ultimate turnaround guy” was hired by the American people who smelled the stench from Washington, DC.   He came in competent and prepared to make things better again.  And now, like my husband, his job is to get them before they get him.

I challenge you to take a look at the current scene again through the eyes of a turnaround person .   Can you see now?

Operation “Crossfire Hurricane”

Published / by Lee Kessler / Leave a Comment

If you have not heard that term, you have not been watching or reading the right news sources.  In the coming months, you, as Americans, are going to have to face something you never could have conceived, you never would have believed, and may not know how to handle.

Be calm, daylight reveals the truth.

Some of you who follow Congressional hearings have heard of Crossfire Hurricane, and it may have caused you to shudder.   It is real; it was testified to under oath by top FBI personnel; it was deployed against an American.   And we are going to explore it in the next few Blogs.

But, for now, just take a look at the name itself.   Ask yourself what crossfire is.  It is fIre from more than one direction converging on a single spot.  Ask yourself if you would like to be caught in a crossfire.   Certainly it is a tactic to guarantee that you hit the enemy from both sides, thus insuring he falls.

And Hurricane.   Well we all know the devastating force, winds, inundating floods, and treacherous clockwise/counterclockwise churning that a hurricane creates.   Not to mention its sudden changes in direction.   And it is broad, almost inescapable if you are in its direct path.

So, your tax payer dollars have been used in the last three years to create a hurricane deployed against American citizens.  Simultaneously, the individuals caught in the hurricane were hit with crossfire in an attempt to bring them down.

Who would conceive of this diabolical plot?   Who would further name it in such a sinister way?  Who was the target?  Did they survive?

Let’s talk.

All Roads Lead to Rome, Part 3

Published / by Lee Kessler / 1 Comment on All Roads Lead to Rome, Part 3

Remember, we are trying to triangulate and find the real life “Samir,” the fictitious villain of “White King and the Doctor.”   In the last part, I was tracking along a line relevant to the Russia Collusion Investigation.

Well, changing perspective slightly, and looking at attacks upon the President, and the policies of the President, I found some connections you will want to note.   I’m just going to lay out the “cast of characters” that keep cropping up, which I believe connect the  dots.   These people, and who they work with and for, also lead to The Democracy Integrity Project.

One of the other most emotional times for Americans this past year was the confirmation hearing of Judge Kavanaugh, and the accusations made by Christine Blasey Ford.   Regardless of your political beliefs and who you support, please pay attention here.   If you know the Rule of Law, and Due Process, you know something went radically wrong.  So, here’s the cast of characters involved in that play:

Michael Bromwich, who is a former Inspector General for Bill Clinton, and who prosecuted Oliver North, now represents former Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe, who has been fired, and who is likely under criminal investigation.  He has another illustrious client as well–Christine Blasey Ford.  That is an odd intersection of interests.

In addition, David Laufman, former Deputy Attorney General for Counter-Intelligence–and one of the lawyers, along with Peter Strzok, who interviewed Hillary Clinton in the email investigation–represents Monica McClean, Christine Blasey Ford’s best friend who allegedly helped her put together her letter that started the Kavanaugh debacle.

You can probably guess what her former profession was.   Ms. McClean is a former FBI Investigator and Public Affairs person.  That is Public Relations related, and she currently runs a Public Relations and Consulting Firm in Washington, DC.  She and Laufman also run in the circle of Strzok, and Bruce Ohr, one of the top 4 DOJ execs.

This is a cozy little group, isn’t it?  Roads are leading to “Rome.”   So, how does Daniel J. Jones fit in?   He is the former top aide to Senator Diane Feinstein, through whom the Blasey Ford letter was leaked,   He was a Clinton volunteer back in the day, who graduated to–you guessed it–FBI Investigator, specializing in International Investigations and Counter-Intelligence.

Not only was he trusted by Senator Feinstein, but he was trusted by Senator John McCain.  We are almost at “Rome.”

Jones started The Democracy Integrity Project in 2017 and it feeds information/disinformation about investigations and dirt to the national media, to Congressional investigators–the folks members of Congress rely upon and trust to give them accurate information so they can fulfill their Constitutional duties–and to Federal Law Enforcement. I believe the briefings are daily.  (Remember:   Garbage In, Garbage Out)

He has apparently hired Glenn Simpson, Christopher Steele, Fusion GPS.   Clapper and Brennan I am quite sure are in the mix since they were linked to the dissemination of the Steele Dossier to Congressmen and women, the Media, and to the FBI.

I will leave it to you to discover for yourself who initially and probably now still funds the organization, which is listed as a non-profit.  Google it.    It’s chilling.

You will find “Samir” camouflaged somewhere in the world of Daniel Jones, in my humble opinion.   He (or she) will be a public relations and spin guy, He will be in the shadows, hiding in plain sight much like I theorized Ayman Al-Zawahiri was hiding in Switzerland, using a double identity as Phillipe Monet, philanthropist and humanitarian.   Look for someone in this merry bunch who may be linked to International Humanitarian or Human Rights Organizations. He will be US educated, from Princeton, Yale, Harvard, or some other Ivy League School.  He is not an ideologue.   He is driven totally by power, money, and the love of destruction.  But he talks a good game! His target is the United States itself.  He is accepted as trustworthy by all of this bunch.

And, Director Brennan, for all those who think you are in up to your eyeballs in seditious behavior yourself, you should look especially closely.   Because, “Samir” is your “handler–” whether you know it or not.   You may have masterminded the Russian Hoax, but someone is masterminding you.   Someone much smarter than you.  You should start looking around.

All roads lead to “Rome.” ” Samir’s” there.   His first two Propaganda Warfare hoaxes have proven stunning.   The first one led the US into a 16-year-long war.   The second one almost overthrew the President of the United States, nearly taking down the Presidency.  So, what’s next on “Samir’s” mind?  That question keeps me on my toes.   Other people have and will continue to investigate and sort out the sordid details of what happened here in the United States in the last few years.   I am not the one to do that.   My theories are the speculations of a fiction writer who writes about modern history.   But, before you dismiss fiction writers, relying only on the non-fiction “research” which led to this travesty, you should remind yourself we all would have been better off to have listened to Tom Clancy.   In at least two of his novels, he nailed what happened to us.

My writing style is different from Clancy, but I have been compared to him.   That’s humbling.   Actually, I am just an American writer–a descendant of a Patriot in the American Revolution– who is acting like a sleuth, ferreting out some real vermin.

We all need to be patriots now, I think.   I am always an optimist.    And I know these people lose in the end.  So, the road may be bumpy right now, but as you can see a lot of these “characters” have been screwing up our Republic for quite some time with their delusional, ambitious games.   Newsflash:   they lose!

Differentiation vs Identification

Published / by Lee Kessler / 1 Comment on Differentiation vs Identification

Differentiation and Identification.   Understanding these two words, I believe, will make  all the difference to the quality of life we will all live in the future–and to our sanity itself.   I believe it will untangle for you why so much of recent events seem to reflect a world inverted, operating almost on the opposite of the values and standards you were accustomed to.

American Heritage dictionary defines Differentiation as: perceiving or showing the difference in or between…   You fill in the word. Ex. Perceiving the differences between people or groups, or ideas.

It defines Identification as: considering something as identical, equating.

One word leads to sanity, and the other to insanity.   Plain and simple.   In life, many things, attitudes, actions, ideas etc. may be similar.    But it is the every rising intelligence and sanity of an individual that allows him or her to see the differences.   Conversely, it is the every lowering intelligence and sanity of an individual that compels him or her to see things as identical.

This subject explains mob rule, civil insurrection, lynch mentality, social injustices, and the erosion of the Rule of Law.   The Rule of Law that is a part of the American Experiment requires that one be able to differentiate, and not identify.   It requires facts, distinguishable facts, and not a blur of one fact obscured by mounds of emotion.

Take for example a woman who is mugged by a black man.   Though a bad thing obviously, the quality of her life and others will be influenced by whether she differentiates or identifies from there forward.   If she differentiates, she holds no animosity toward other black men, let alone all black men.   She holds animosity toward the ONE man who harmed.   But, if she identifies, she will see every black man from there forward as bad, and concludes irrationally that all black men are bad because one man was.   If she is truly insane, she assumes all black people are bad.

The Me Too Movement, in my opinion, would be wise to study this.  And the participants should look closely at the degree of sanity or insanity manifested in the behavior of the movement’s leaders.   Each woman who has experienced sexual harassment, assault, or worse is right to revile the man who did it.   If she differentiates, however, she will not hold all men responsible for the acts of one–even if she is part of a group where each INDIVIDUAL member has experienced something similar.

On the other hand, if she identifies, then ALL men are sexual predators of some sort in her mind, and any future accusation can set her off.   Associating with other women who may also be identifying one bad actor with all men can also cause her to further identify.   Before you know it, she sees all men as threats to be dealt with.   Instead of handling the one actual “bad actor,” she rails against all and habitually hits the wrong target.

In a just culture, when we are wronged, we should seek redress.  But, it has to be against the right target, not some other innocent and uninvolved person whose only sin was that they were part of the group the bad actor came from.

The absence of this sanity and the ability to differentiate, sorting out fact from fiction, fact from opinion, and rationality from emotionality, has led throughout history to racism, lynching (literal and figurative,) brandings, pillories, riots, genocide, and much more.

I will leave you with this thought.   There was a time prior to World War 2 when the German people could look at their neighbors and evaluate them for themselves.   But once the brainwashing and mind control efforts began and were skillfully continued, an entire nation of people began to see the one Jew that acted inappropriately as representative of the entire group called Jews.   As the identification dug in further, they no longer sought to punish the one, but rather equated the one with the whole, and sought to punish the whole.  We all know that was one of the darkest periods in man’s history.

I have always been an optimistic person.   I adopted a personal philosophy that each person I meet or know is basically good.   I do not expect the worst from them.   And except on those days when I may be acting like a jerk, I hold the view that the other person has my basic respect automatically.  My disrespect, on the other hand, has to be “earned.”   Therefore, if someone does some harm to me, or others, they as an INDIVIDUAL may engender my disapproval, thereby earning my disrespect.    But it is their actions, not the actions of the gender or race or religion they are part of, which influences my thinking.

I’d like to think that is sanity.   How about you?

And when I saw mobs of people willing to literally throw out the Rule of Law in the US because of their identification of one man who may have harmed them in the past with ALL men, thereby hitting a wrong target and destroying lives in the process, I call that insanity.   Human decency says, before you destroy someone be sure they are the right one.   And if they are, then temper the punishment to the offense.

Not all offenses are equal.   It is my hope that we evolve again into a society that is not so lazy.   One where, if we see some similarities between things, we are intellectually and emotionally mature enough to look for the differences.    Differences lead to sanity.   Identifications lead to insanity.   Sanity and happiness are aligned.   Insanity and hate-filled unhappiness are also  aligned.
