This is an interesting development.
Don’t miss the important SIGNAL.
FISA is the KEY.
Trump knew that placing Pulte as “acting” DNI would cause instant panic in DC, because he’s loyal to Trump and has already exposed some big government officials for mortgage fraud.
There was panic on both sides of the aisle over Pulte, so Trump nominated Jay Clayton from the SDNY to replace him.
Trap set.
The democrats offered to renew FISA, if the republicans quickly confirm Clayton.
FISA goes both ways.
But the democrats don’t like Clayton either.
Remember, AG Barr nominated him to head SDNY in Trump’s first term and Geoffrey Berman refused to step down from the position until someone was confirmed. Clayton was then pulled from consideration because he wasn’t likely to be confirmed. So Berman’s deputy was then nominated and confirmed.
Trump and Bondi placed Clayton as head of SDNY early in Trump’s second term and he was confirmed.
Mission accomplished.
Once Trump nominated Clayton to replace Pulte, the republicans quickly moved to confirm him.
But look what happened.
Now the democrats are refusing to pass the FISA renewal.
Really?
Who holds the leverage?
Trump holds all the cards. He’s trapped the democrats again.
Here’s something most people don’t know. It doesn’t matter whether or not the democrats vote to renew FISA.
Why?
(Brave search engine) “FISA Section 702 surveillance continues operating even if the statutory authorization lapses, because the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) issues annual programmatic certifications that remain valid independently of Congress's renewal timeline.”
“The FISC renewed these certifications in March 2026, allowing collection to proceed legally until approximately March 2027 regardless of the statute's June 12, 2026 expiration.” ————— Checkmate!
The democrats have zero leverage and Trump can wait until after the Republicans win the midterms, to renew FISA.
And now Trump is upping the ante.
He says he “trapped” the republicans too.
He pulled Clayton’s nomination until his replacement at SDNY is confirmed. Trump wants Jamie McDonald confirmed as head of SDNY first.
Why?
SDNY is overseeing a whole lot of important conspiracy investigations and Trump is going to maintain control of that office.
Who is Jamie McDonald?
He served as Director of Enforcement at the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) during Trump's first term and was also on Trump’s legal team defending him in New York.
Are you beginning to see the big picture?
Maximum leverage is being applied. The enemy is trapped.
- They FEAR what Pulte will do as “acting” DNI because he doesn’t have to answer to Congress.
- They don’t want Jay Clayton confirmed because of what he ALREADY knows about all the investigations at SDNY.
- They don’t want Trump loyalist Jamie McDonald, to head SDNY.
And now Trump throws in the “kicker.”
Now Trump is also demanding that the SAVE Act be included in the FISA renewal.
Are you catching the SIGNAL?
FISA = START.
What’s about to START? ————- Q drop 3740 Dec 22, 2019 6:09:09 PM EST
https://x.com/wokesocieties//wokesocieties/status/1208139679528357889 Something BIG is coming. https://x.com/realdonaldtrum/realDonaldTrump/status/1208873492025925632 Do people really think this can happen with no consequences? FISA = START NOBODY is above the law [not anymore]. Q —————- As I have said many times, Trump doesn’t need the Senate to pass the SAVE Act. He can get it done through Executive Order and already knows he’ll win at the Supreme Court, making it a permanent “safeguard.”
I think Trump ALREADY knows FISA/SAVE Act won’t be renewed until AFTER the midterms.
He’s SIGNALING that election fraud and prosecutions are incoming.
FISA = START
I also believe that my “spitball” on Devin Nunes ending up as DNI is still in play.
If they refuse to confirm Jamie McDonald as head of SDNY, then Trump will leave Jay Clayton at SDNY and nominate someone new to head DNI as Pulte continues to pressure them.
Nunes would be the perfect choice.
Maybe that was always the plan. Quote Square profile picture Rapid Response 47

Great post! And I think he may be right that FISA/SAVE Act happens after the midterms. The masses aren't really there yet to get on board with what is necessary. Drawing eyeballs to the Cheat ahead of the Cheat will be needed. White Hats already know their methods and will be able to monitor the Cheat in real time and display/expose publicly (hopefully)...or maybe we just continue down the path we are on and bitch about no arrests.
Joe Lange is a national treasure!

Love JoeLange's takes.
Can anyone remember what the tweets were? They're gone now.
I have no idea, I joined X in 2024.
I know some of his articles are on substack, I have only read parts of some of them because they’re so long.
Gotta a link to his post on X?
Yep, right at the top next to Link——> https://x.com/JoeLange/status/2067262703492567527?s=20
Thanks. I did not see it.
No worries. I almost did the post as a link post but felt like since it was pretty long it wouldn’t be as useful to people. I think next time I’ll revert back to my usual link post and then post a nitter link in the comments.
Thanks. It never hurts to think about us old as dirt anons that are not too computer savy! Kek
