After the New York Times published an anonymous op-ed by someone claiming to be actively, deliberately and continuously torpedoing President Trump 's agenda from a top position within his administration, the author was hailed as a patriotic whistleblower.
The Times writer confirmed Higgins' account that there is a clandestine, unelected cabal willfully thwarting the Trump presidency.
Early on, his memo "Called out - without specifically naming - what we now know as Operation Crossfire Hurricane," the FBI counterintelligence investigation targeting the Trump campaign by using smears paid for by his political opponents and abuse of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act process.
Further, after Trump's stunning election victory, the Republican establishment was allowed to staff out his new administration - an epic mistake, according to Higgins: "These bad actors have shielded the Obama holdovers from dismissal, tolerated the bureaucratic slow-rolling by corrupt government officials, populated the administration with their own loyalists, and prevented qualified, actual Trump supporters from being hired. Not to mention the Trump supporters the media and establishment loyalists co-conspired to push out once hired," he says.
Further, he says, "While the hard left presently controls the Democratic Party, leaders of the intelligence community" - including former CIA Director John Brennan and former FBI Director James Comey - "Appear to have attempted to use our most sensitive intelligence capabilities to sabotage both the election process and the Trump presidency." And the Republican Party's leadership, he adds, "Appears to have taken a business-as-usual approach that, at best, amounts to the passive tolerance of sedition."
The danger, of course, is that Trump ends up trusting very few - inhibiting his effectiveness, precisely the resisters' goal.
"Second, faith in government will collapse among Trump supporters. Having been betrayed by the politicians they elected, a demographic large enough to elect a president will become completely disenfranchised."
