Military Intelligence Note
Subject: Presidential Appointment Powers and Deep State Influence
Presidential Appointment Powers Overview
Upon inauguration, the President of the United States wields extensive appointment powers across various branches of government, particularly within the Department of Defense (DoD), the intelligence community, and other federal agencies. The scope of these appointments includes direct roles and the delegation of authority to appoint additional personnel.
- Appointments in the Department of Defense:
- Senior Leadership Roles: Includes the Secretary of Defense, Deputy Secretary of Defense, Under Secretaries, and Assistant Secretaries.
- Military Leadership: The President appoints members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, combatant commanders, and other high-ranking officers.
- Civilian Oversight: The President influences over 2 million personnel in the DoD, including uniformed and civilian employees, through appointments and leadership changes.
- Other Federal Departments:
- The President appoints cabinet secretaries, deputy secretaries, and administrators across various agencies like the Department of State, Treasury, Energy, and Homeland Security.
- Thousands of appointments at the sub-cabinet and agency level extend presidential influence across the federal bureaucracy.
The Concept of the Deep State
The term “Deep State” refers to a loosely defined network of entrenched bureaucrats, intelligence operatives, and military officials who maintain continuity of governance and policy execution regardless of elected leadership. This network comprises:
- Ongoing Operations: Intelligence, counterterrorism, and clandestine activities span global theaters, including the Middle East, Europe, and Asia. These operations are often shielded from direct public or political oversight.
- Stay-Behind Forces: Remnants of Cold War-era intelligence structures, particularly in Europe, persist in navigating geopolitical tensions and securing Western interests.
- Privatization and Shadow Influence: The collapse of the Soviet Union saw significant privatization efforts tied to Western interests. Allegations suggest criminal enterprises and oligarchic influences shaped these efforts under the pretext of economic reform.
- Present Tensions – Ukraine Conflict: The war in Ukraine is viewed as a continuation of efforts to stabilize Europe against external threats. Simultaneously, it is a theater where entrenched actors safeguard historic gains while promoting Western security and economic objectives.
Gangster Amnesty and Amnesia
- Gangster Amnesty:
- Refers to implicit or explicit forgiveness granted to individuals or entities engaged in illicit activities, often justified under geopolitical or economic realpolitik.
- Examples include negotiations with oligarchs post-Soviet privatization to integrate them into global markets.
- Gangster Amnesia:
- Institutionalized forgetting of controversial actions, such as covert operations or economic restructuring tactics, to focus on present and future objectives.
- This strategy often facilitates bipartisan continuity and operational secrecy in government policy.
Implications for Military and Intelligence Policy
The interconnectedness of presidential appointments and deep state dynamics creates a complex web of governance and influence:
- Strategic Continuity: Presidential appointees often inherit established operations, limiting their ability to enact drastic change without disrupting vital functions.
- Policy Navigation: Deep state actors ensure a level of policy consistency, particularly in defense and intelligence operations, regardless of administration.
- Oversight Challenges: The breadth of ongoing operations and the secrecy surrounding them pose challenges to transparency and democratic accountability.
The enduring balance between elected authority and entrenched bureaucracy underscores the necessity for robust oversight mechanisms to ensure alignment with national and global interests.

Developing a serious policy proposal for such a complex and unconventional topic requires carefully balancing ethical considerations, legal structures, and societal impact. Below is a draft for the Washington Military Guidelines on Controlled Legalization for Strategic Resource Optimization, emphasizing transparency, legality, and societal well-being.
Washington Military Guidelines on Controlled Legalization for Strategic Resource Optimization
Purpose:
To establish a controlled framework for the legalization and regulation of certain activities—currently classified as illicit—such as the trade of healing, relaxing, and focus-enhancing substances, and consensual adult services. This framework aims to generate legal economic opportunities, enhance societal health, and fund strategic objectives within a transparent and ethical system.
I. Objectives
- Economic Regularization: Transition revenues from the black market into legal streams to support national defense, public health, and infrastructure.
- Strategic Oversight: Provide a structured and monitored platform for specific intelligence and military assets to engage in these markets responsibly and transparently.
- Societal Well-being: Promote research-backed usage of substances and activities that contribute to relaxation, focus, and overall mental health while upholding humanistic values.
- Global Leadership: Position the United States and allied Western nations as leaders in transparent, ethical approaches to contentious global markets.
II. Eligibility and Participants
- Participants:
- Limited to certified individuals over the age of 30 who have undergone rigorous background checks.
- Includes vetted members of military intelligence communities (e.g., CID-certified individuals).
- Restricted to Western citizens and allied nationals meeting security and ethical standards.
- Vetting Process:
- Comprehensive psychological evaluations.
- Periodic security clearance renewals.
- Mandatory adherence to a strict code of conduct ensuring compliance with international laws and ethical norms.
III. Legalized Activities and Products
- Substances: Healing, relaxing, and focus-enhancing compounds developed and produced by a regulated entity known as the Healing, Relaxing, and Focus Monopoly (HRFM).
- Adult Experiences:
- Facilitated within a framework prioritizing scientific research and humanism.
- Consensual and contractual arrangements among adult participants.
- Activities subject to strict monitoring to ensure ethical standards are upheld.
IV. Regulation and Monitoring
- Licensing and Compliance:
- All participants and activities must be registered with a dedicated oversight agency under the Department of Defense and the Department of Health and Human Services.
- Compliance inspections conducted bi-annually.
- Revenue Allocation:
- 80% of revenues reinvested in public goods (e.g., healthcare, education, infrastructure).
- 20% allocated to national defense initiatives, including a sovereign Ukraine and countering adversaries who oppose democratic values.
- Data Collection and Reporting:
- Transparent reporting of revenues, expenditures, and societal impacts.
- Regular audits by independent bodies.
V. Implementation Strategy
- Pilot Programs:
- Launch in select states or territories with demonstrated readiness for regulatory frameworks.
- Collaboration with local governments and communities to ensure tailored approaches.
- Education and Outreach:
- Public campaigns to destigmatize regulated activities and promote informed decision-making.
- Training programs for military and intelligence personnel participating in or overseeing operations.
- International Coordination:
- Establish bilateral agreements with allied nations to harmonize standards and practices.
- Position the policy as a model for ethical engagement in global markets.
VI. Risk Mitigation
- Ethical Oversight:
- A dedicated Ethical Review Board to address potential conflicts and maintain public trust.
- Prevention of Abuse:
- Stringent penalties for misconduct or exploitation.
- Clear channels for whistleblowers to report violations.
- Global Perception Management:
- Diplomatically engage with critics to emphasize the policy’s focus on human rights and societal advancement.
VII. Expected Outcomes
- Diversion of funds from illicit to legal markets, reducing organized crime’s influence.
- Creation of new jobs and economic opportunities aligned with societal well-being.
- Strengthened alliances through shared values of transparency and innovation.
- Enhanced global stability by supporting strategic objectives like a sovereign Ukraine.
This policy framework provides a foundation for legalizing and regulating previously illicit activities within a secure, ethical, and economically beneficial system. Its implementation requires ongoing consultation with experts, stakeholders, and international partners to ensure its success and sustainability.
