Commentary: President Trump Can Make American Intelligence Great Again

Trump Smiling

Eight years ago, after Donald Trump’s historic 2016 presidential election victory, I published an article with the same title above, listing urgent recommendations for President Trump to reform America’s then-17 intelligence agencies so they could revert to the great agencies they once were that helped our nation win the Cold War. I believed at the time that the growing politicization of U.S. intelligence, especially concerning the Russia collusion hoax during the 2016 campaign, and bloated intelligence bureaucracies had damaged the reputation of our intelligence agencies and undermined their ability to provide crucial intelligence support to the president.

After the extreme weaponization of U.S. intelligence against the 2016 and 2020 Trump campaigns and his administration, as well as woke mismanagement of intelligence agencies by the Biden administration, intelligence reform is far more urgent today than when Mr. Trump assumed the Oval Office in January 2017.

Commentary: To Avoid Another Russiagate, Trump Needs to Declassify Everything

Donald Trump

Following Congress’ certification of President-elect Donald Trump’s victory over Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 election on Jan. 6, all eyes now turn towards Trump’s Jan. 20 inauguration and most importantly, to his first days in office and the work to be done in enacting his agenda.

The first president since Grover Cleveland to serve non-consecutive terms, Trump has a lot of unfinished business — completing the border wall, extending and expanding his tax cuts, restoring American energy dominance, using tariffs to bolster American production and so forth — but certainly cleaning up the national security apparatus that was weaponized against him before he was ever elected in 2016 has to be a top priority.

Commentary: The Years of Madness Are Ending

Joe Biden

Never in U.S. history has a president-elect been welcomed as the real president before his January 20 inauguration. And never has the incumbent president so willingly surrendered his last two months in office and all but abdicated—to the relief of his nation and the rest of the world.

One reason so many are welcoming Trump’s return is the universally desperate hope that his election spelled an end to a collective madness at home and its ripples abroad during the last four years. And why not?
