I'm John Batchel with my colleague and friend Thaddez McCarter, my co-hosts, because Lee Smith is here with a very challenging piece in the tablet magazine about an event that doesn't deserve more than a footnote except that explains things.

And may explain the future for the Trump administration.

A man named Davis was nominated to be the DDMI, the daily briefing in the morning, the

presidential daily briefer.

He's now rejected by the Trump administration, which happens every day.

People try out for posts and they don't make it.

No attachment to them.

However, Thadis, you have a question for Lee.

Yes, Lee, you've talked about the interplay between domestic affairs and international affairs

regarding the Davis appointment.

And one of those issues where that comes into focus is communist China.

Is not Mr. Davis from the school, I believe your piece, mentioned the Jeffrey Schock Therapy,

Sacks School of Viewing China?

Yes.

This is a very pro-China faction of the foreign policy world.

So, yeah, I'll go into that in a little bit.

But to start, that that is to say to answer John's question, which is, is this going to keep going on?

So yes, it will, because Donald Trump has identified China, Russia, and Iran as the top three foreign policy threats to the United States. And the way that right now that Donald Trump is

dealing with China is the terrorist regime. And so a lot of people, a lot of American corporations,

a lot of American, a lot of the U.S. political establishment has a great deal at stake here.

So yeah, they're going to keep going after Trump,

and they're not going to let this is going to be going on the whole time.
