National Security Attorney Speaks Out: “They’re Preparing to Flee”
With the incoming Trump administration’s inauguration looming, whispers are turning to real action as numerous Washington, D.C. officials reportedly make plans to leave the country. According to National Security Attorney Mark Zaid, many of these officials are taking this drastic step to avoid potential prosecution. Zaid recently shared on CNN that he’s actively advising some clients to consider leaving the United States due to Trump’s known commitment to cracking down on certain figures within the “deep state” that he’s long promised to hold accountable.
Trump’s Intentions: “Clear and Swift Retaliation”
In his statement, Zaid explained that Trump and his close advisors have been explicit about their intentions, with promises of a second administration focused on fulfilling the promises made during his first term and recent campaign. “Trump has made it very clear, both over the years and throughout his campaign, that he intends to swiftly hold accountable those he views as deep state actors. Ignoring these promises would be foolish,” Zaid stated, emphasizing the seriousness of the potential consequences for individuals tied to government activities that may not align with the Trump administration’s agenda.
Legal Concerns for Former Officials
Many of these officials have been identified as Trump’s “specific targets” — high-profile individuals who have been involved in decisions, policies, or actions that Trump has publicly criticized. This group isn’t just made up of everyday federal employees, but rather, individuals directly named and highlighted by Trump in the past. According to Zaid, these are not “just employees uncomfortable with the upcoming transition,” but people who fear direct legal repercussions based on Trump’s plans to revisit certain actions taken during and after his previous term in office.
Preparing for What Comes Next
As Zaid suggests, those planning their exits see this as more than political rhetoric. The fear of legal accountability under Trump’s second administration has prompted a real sense of urgency. For these officials, the stakes are high, with actions now being taken to secure safety abroad. This anticipation, based on promises of renewed accountability and transparency, brings a fresh wave of anxiety among specific government factions.
A Climate of Uncertainty
The idea of “deep state” accountability is not new in American political rhetoric, especially in the wake of Trump’s public statements. However, as the nation edges closer to the inauguration, the political and social climate becomes increasingly charged, reflecting divisions in how government operations are perceived by different groups. For those working within the government who have supported policies that Trump has labeled as “anti-constitutional,” the return of the former president could signify a period of intense scrutiny and legal challenges.
What’s Next for America?
For many Americans, these departures raise questions about the future of government integrity, transparency, and accountability. The coming months will likely see a reshaping of narratives around “deep state” activities and how they impact everyday citizens. As Trump’s administration moves forward, the public will be watching closely to see what actions are taken and how accountability is enforced.
