Karem was a foreign policy legislative assistant for U.S. Senator Mitch McConnell. He was also an advisor to former Vice President Dick Cheney, specifically with respect to Middle East affairs. Karem was a member of Cheney's national security staff from February 2005 to January 2009 and was a researcher for Cheney's memoir.
Karem later worked as an advisor to then-House Majority Leader Eric Cantor. In August 2014, Karem left Cantor's office to serve as policy advisor for U.S. House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy.
Karem served as a member of Donald Trump's 2016 transition team as an adviser to CIA Director Mike Pompeo during Pompeo's confirmation process.
On April 25, 2017, President Trump nominated Karem to become Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Affairs in the Department of Defense. Derek Chollet, who served as Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Affairs in the Obama administration, praised Trump's decision in choosing Karem, stating that "[n]ot often [do] I say this, but terrific news from Trump Admin: Robert Karem nomn'd for Asst SecDef ISA . . . He’s smart, savvy, & skilled. Great pick!"
On May 18, 2017, Karem's confirmation hearing took place with the Senate Committee on Armed Services. He was confirmed unanimously by the U.S. Senate on May 25, 2017.
Karem stepped down as Assistant Secretary in October 2018, along with additional Pentagon officials, Thomas Goffus and Alan Patterson. He was succeeded by Kathryn L. Wheelbarger in an acting capacity.
Just a quick note of what President Trump has just done...
When President Trump POINTS something out like this,
while he is overseas, BTW, he is PUTTING A LASER POINTER ON THAT INDIVIDUAL!!!!! This is EXACTLY WHAT HE HAS DONE!!!!!!
He knew BEFORE he left for China in what he was going to do!!!!!!!!!
Wonder who will be howling at the moon tonight!!!!!
The normies hate DJT and us and the rest of maga and anyone else who tells the real truth. Because seeing things like this called out in the open shakes their delicate realities.
So Pres. Trump & staff must know the modus operandi of this Karem guy, he seems to be some uni-party guy, Arabic family name, possibly Egypt, Lebanon or Syria, possibly Christian but also as likely Muslim.
need it by President Trump in 2017 to be assistant secretary of defense for international security affairs, the outgoing Obama person who served in this position praised Trump‘s decision. - wikipedia
Karem words for Dick Cheney 2005 to 2009 and advised Eric Cantor.
President Trump is clearly pointing out that this car guy is trouble, not MAGA
another staffer of a different senator tried to insinuate that a senator cannot speak out for Tina Peters, complete nonsense, I did not get the staffer’s name
How many traitors are working against America and being paid with taxpayer money? We have 3 million Federal employees and I would venture to guess 20% are traitors.

Mitch McConnel is in no better state than Joe Biden . Get rid of them both!
Real Joe not here, but Mitch needs to go.
Yeah, I don't know why President Trump has kept McConnell around so long, he needs to be fired.
Like 10 years ago or more even
Quite a resume he has ...

Timing is also not a coincidence. I would bet this Robert Karem person was being handled by the CCP, and now that string has been cut.
McConnells wife was said to have made a lot of money from dealing with China.
Wow, certainly an impressive resume.
Glowing review from head satan himself!
Of course.
The normies hate DJT and us and the rest of maga and anyone else who tells the real truth. Because seeing things like this called out in the open shakes their delicate realities.
Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!
What you mean the man behind the curtain? Those people cannot even see the curtains.
Howls.
Or they are wrapped in the curtains, and refuse to undress in public.
Oh maybe that.
The normies hate DJT? Really? I'm very curious how he got elected 3 times without the normal US citizen's support. We are the "normies" now.
You ain't wrong. Easy to neglect mindset when you're up to your neck in dumb fucks.

Thanks for the research. I didn't know he was that important and well connected. Certainly a snake but the tall grass has been cut down.

How many traitors are working against America and being paid with taxpayer money? We have 3 million Federal employees and I would venture to guess 20% are traitors.
More like 34% would be my guess. They are waiting Trump out.
Yeah, I would not bet against that percentage!
How many red flags do you spot?
