Yeah, so this was a really shocking poll. It found that 64% of Washington, D.C.-based federal bureaucrats who voted for Vice President Kamala Harris in the last election said that they would not follow a lawful order from Trump if they considered it to be bad policy.

I think back in the first administration, you had some Republicans or some who identified as Republicans who would still oppose Trump from within. Thankfully, that seems to be less of the case. But the fact that anybody who works in the executive branch would decide and really gear up for not following the legal orders of the sitting president is a really shocking development.

It's definitely more entrenched on the left-wing side. This broader phenomenon dovetails very much with my new book, which is called The Woktopus, The Dark Money Cabal Manipulating the Federal Government.

And in my book, I talk about, you know, the left's vast influence campaign that's propped up by a dark money network led by people like George Soros, who now his son Alex is heading the Open Society Foundations. So in the Biden administration, the influence of this left-wing network really exploded. And we saw what I call the woke-topus revealing itself in

in its true form, showing how far its tentacles had reached into the federal government when it came to staffing and advising and really brainwashing and weaponizing the government to achieve its woke purposes. But even under Biden, we saw... many bureaucrats gear up against the sitting president.

And these were left-wing bureaucrats gearing up against a left-wing president because they didn't support his rhetorical stance on Israel. And many of us who know the issue of Israel and the Middle East and Iran in general will know that Biden was by far not the most reliable president. When it comes to standing for Israel, he loosened the sanctions on Iran that enabled

the rogue state to fund Hamas and likely led to the October 7th terrorist attack. But as soon as that attack happened, Biden came out and said to Israel, we will never fail to have your back. And that messaging didn't comport well with some of the activist groups.

And so you saw this gearing deep state move against a Democratic president from the left because they wanted him to focus on securing a ceasefire deal and essentially not allowing Israel to protect itself and prevent another October 7th terrorist pogrom.

Yeah, that's an excellent question. We know that there was a large influence in the Obama administration as well. I think the phenomenon I describe as the Woktopus

came into its full flower in the Biden administration, but it had been growing over years, but only recently did some of the more aggressive woke groups, I'm thinking like the Human Rights Campaign, and of course the Southern Poverty Law Center had a little bit of an advising role years and years ago, but only under Biden, their access tripled, quadrupled, expanded in this administration.
