I am writing as a supporter who wants your September 10 event with Attorney General Ken Paxton to be secure. Public posts this week from @idontexistTore describe a privately funded trip that flew a group of online personalities to Poland in connection with that event. The same posts state that the foundation associated with Miriam Adelson paid for the travel and had also supported related campaign activity.
The concerns being raised in public are straightforward:
- The trip occurred overseas, outside ordinary U.S. visibility, shortly before an event at which you and Mr. Paxton are scheduled to appear.
- The individuals involved are being called “influencers,” yet questions have been asked about whether their actual reach matches that label.
- The poster points to a facility in Poland identified as ESA, cites prior training activity there (including Azov-linked personnel), and states that U.S. intelligence access to the site was previously denied. Separate claims about other training activity in Poland are also circulating.
- Jack Posobiec is named as having arrived ahead of the event; the posts ask what role, if any, he or people around him played.
- Emphasis is placed on electronic devices carried on the trip and on network traffic reportedly moving toward Estonia.
- Informal talk in some online circles about a “Kennedy reward in Dallas” is being used as a reason to treat proximity to you as a risk until it is checked.
I am not asking you to accept every allegation. I am asking that the White House, Secret Service, and relevant intelligence components treat the trip as something that should be reviewed *before* September 10—not explained afterward. That review should cover funding sources, itinerary, contacts in Poland, and a thorough examination of devices and communications belonging to anyone who was on the trip and who now seeks access to the event.
If those people cannot be fully cleared in time, they should be kept off the site. Money should not buy proximity to the President. Access should be earned by vetting, not by donor relationships or social-media status.
Please have this looked at now, while there is still time.
Respectfully,
Jake Armstrong
Keep writing.

Subject: A Proposal: Time-Limit Every Major Federal Permit and Publish the Clock
Dear President Trump, @realDonaldTrump@DanScavino
A country does not stay strong by announcing projects. It stays strong by finishing them.
Right now a mine, a reactor, a transmission line, a shipyard expansion, a water plant, or a fab can spend more years in review than in construction. Lawyers and process win. Steel, power, and ships lose. China does not wait for our paperwork. Neither do the problems those projects were meant to solve.
Treat delay as a policy failure, not a virtue.
Give every major federal permit a public clock. Day one, the agency posts: what is being asked, which statute applies, who owns the decision, and the date a yes or no is due. If the clock runs out with no lawful objection on the record, the permit is deemed granted. If the agency needs more time, it must say why in writing, name the official responsible, and reset a short, public extension — not an open-ended stall.
That rule should cover energy, minerals, ports, yards, freight, water, and defense production first. Those are the things a nation cannot import on short notice when it is in trouble.
This is not a license to break the law. It is a ban on hiding behind process. A clean environment and a working country are not opposites. Endless review that never resolves is how both get worse.
If America is going to be hard to beat, it has to be allowed to build. Put the clock on the wall where the public can see it.

Jake Armstrong
Subject: A Proposal: Federal “Scouting” Divisions to Find Extraordinary Americans
Dear President Trump, @realDonaldTrump@DanScavino
I am writing as a U.S. citizen who believes this country still has far more talent than it uses.
College sports programs do not wait for athletes to find them. They scout. They watch film, visit towns, and go after people with rare ability. Federal agencies should do something similar for civilians with extraordinary skills and experience—engineers, operators, investigators, analysts, builders, cyber talent, logistics experts, linguists, and others who could serve the country at a high level.
Too many Americans feel that the best government jobs and missions are closed to them. The process looks distant, political, or reserved for people who already know the right offices and résumés. Talent that never applies is talent we never use.
A small scouting function inside major agencies could change that: identify high-value civilians, approach them directly, explain real missions, and create a faster path from “I didn’t know this existed” to “I’m ready to serve.” That is not charity. It is recruitment of the same kind we already accept for athletes and, in some cases, for the military.
I would love a job in that kind of system—not a favor, a chance to be evaluated on skill and character the way a serious recruiter would evaluate anyone else.
Thank you for considering an idea that treats American talent as something worth going out and finding.

Twenty-five years on, people don’t want another slogan.
They want the truth.
That morning was patriotic because of what ordinary people did. Ran toward the towers. Opened their homes. Lined up to give blood. For a moment the country acted like one body. That was real. Don’t let anyone rewrite that out.
What came after is where the questions live. We were told the story was closed. Bombproof passports. Planes through steel like a knife through butter. A thousand theories, and still not a public document trail that settles the whole of it for the people who lived through it.
Deceit and death. Then unity. Both can be true on the same day. Only one of them has been allowed to stay unfinished.
