(Sophie Mann) Nearly three months after Donald Trump’s departure from the White House, his plans for a politically active post-presidential role are coming into public focus.
by Sophie Mann, April 17th, 2021
After a comparatively quiet first five weeks in Palm Beach, Fla., following a final five in Washington plagued by all sorts of chaos, Trump stirred up excitement in late February at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), where he addressed an enthusiastic crowd for 90 minutes about moving forward with the America First agenda. That plan is now moving into its operational stages, with the launch of a network of political funding vehicles and public messaging platforms.
Most prominently, there is the former president’s leadership PAC — the Save America PAC — which has a war chest totaling more than $85 million heading into the second quarter of this year. That sum positions Trump to make a hefty impact on the upcoming 2022 midterm elections, during which Republicans will attempt to take back control of the House and Senate.
The former president is already deploying resources to help unseat GOP incumbents like Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, whose primary opponent Kelly Tshibaka has hired several former top Trump campaign advisers. Primary candidates challenging GOP incumbents who voted to impeach Trump — including Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, Rep. Adam Kinzinger of Illinois and Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler of Washington — are vying for the support of Team Trump.
Top Trump communications adviser Jason Miller recently told “Just the News AM” that the former president is seeking out candidates who are first and foremost “America First conservatives.”
“That means someone who supports conservative grassroots when it comes to the more populist positions on trade agreements, trying to get out of some of these endless wars, and trying to make sure that we’re not throwing big, massive breaks to the fat cats on Wall Street and in D.C.,” said Miller. “We’re looking for someone that actually boosts up the working class men and women in America.”
“We’re not looking to defeat Republicans who are in districts where if they lose the primary, the seat is going to go to a Democrat,” Lewandowski said, adding that he believes “we can win races in South Carolina, we can beat Liz Cheney in Wyoming and Lisa Murkowski in Alaska.”
Efforts have accelerated in April, with the announcement of Stephen Miller’s “America First Legal,” an organization the Trump policy and messaging stalwart has branded a conservative response to the ACLU. Miller hopes to assist Trump-allied state attorneys general who are fighting legal battles in support of the America First agenda. The organization will likely also mount challenges to Biden policy initiatives.
“Anything the president does that we believe to be illegal is fair game,” Miller told the Wall Street Journal upon announcing the group. Former Trump Chief of Staff Mark Meadows will also play a role inside the organization.
Looking ahead to 2024, Miller says the president has not yet made up his mind about a third White House bid.
“I wouldn’t expect that we hear anything on this really anytime soon,” said Miller.
“I think probably after the midterms is when he’ll make a decision,” he said, adding that the primary race remains Trump’s to lose. “All the polling has shown that the president would be the clear front runner on the GOP side, if he does decide to go and run. Really, the ball’s in his court.”
In the meantime, GOP hopefuls have been making the trip to Mar-a-Lago for face time with the former president. Last weekend, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who is enjoying a star-making moment in GOP politics right now, was spotted golfing with Trump. Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was slated to deliver the keynote address April 17 at a Lincoln Day fundraising dinner hosted by the Palm Beach County Republican Party at Mar-a-Lago.
Rounding out this emerging array of funding, policy, and legal arms is an expected social media network. Since the permanent banning of the nation’s 45th president from Twitter and Facebook in January, Team Trump has been brainstorming a platform of their own, a place for the former president to share his thoughts, along with the growing ranks of conservatives who fear retaliation from Big Tech companies that have been aggressively purging or limiting the reach of conservative users on their platforms.
“We’re probably a couple months away from having that ready to go,” said Miller, confirming he’d recently spoken to the former president about the project. “But the president is moving along on that.”

The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom. The news also serves as a social connection tool, as we tend to relate to those who know about and believe the things we do. With the power of an open truth-seeking mind in hand, the individual can grow wise and the collective can prosper.

In a Project Camelot interview, George Green told of how he was asked to be the campaign manager of Jimmy Carter. He asked, not knowing who Carter was, “For which party?”. He was told, “Democrat”. George protested, “But I’ve been a Republican all my life”. Here is the reply he received, “Don’t worry, George, we control them both”. Remember, folks, we are still waiting for the “storm” that was promised after the “calm” (“The calm before the storm”). We waited four years. Then we waited some more. This time, just in case you have not noticed, the NWO is barreling through with its totalitarian plans. They are actively implementing their genocidal plan via the “plandemic” with a few killer “vaccines”.( And many of you are lining up for the “vaccine” ). This is not pure conjecture. These tyrannical people are actually following their documented plan. They only need 500 million slaves to serve them. The rest of us, useless eaters, are dispensable. Many of you are making money as mercenaries for these evil tyrants. In the end, you will be discarded in the trash heap with the rest of us, especially if you are the wrong skin color. If you are white, do not presume you are safe. There are over 7 billion of us, and they only want 500 million slaves (Look up Georgia Guidestones). Do you really think you are one of the “special ones”? The tyrants’ playbook include “mandatory vaccinations” which the people you are looking up to to save you are pushing (surely, more than encouraging). Klaus Schwab in his very thick German accent recently said, “By 2030, you will own nothing and you will be happy” (I will not be surprised if he still has an SS/Gestapo uniform in his closet). You will not have any private property and you better act happy (that is an order). I am a senior citizen, but I immediately thought, I wanted to challenge this Nazi in a fist fight. Who the hell does he think he is? I worked all my life to earn whatever possessions I have, never made use of government handouts, and I simply want to live out my life unmolested. My gut feeling (and it is very strong), is that our life will be closely interfered with and controlled. My neighbor is from Cuba and she just related to me how the country transitioned to communism. Food rationing and all. You all better wake up and be ready to revolt because if you don’t, we are toast. No one is coming to save you, but yourself. Haven’t you felt like a horse being led to water, but in the end you realize you are actually being led to slaughter? You take that vaccine and you will not ever be in a fighting shape. I maybe retired from our healthcare cartel, but dementia has not set in despite all the chemtrails/nanites they’ve been spraying me with. United we stand, divided we fall. My love to all of you, folks. Let us see what they will do to me this time. I’ve already earned a warning via remote access into my computer, and all I was doing was try to wake people up who are asleep.
