There are only two types of stories, according to them: those that begin with a person leaving and those that begin with a stranger entering area. However, there is a second kind: one about a person who travels and travels again with a group of formidable-looking outsiders four years later.

The townspeople in that genre are familiar with the value of these arrivals and are familiar with the significance of the lessened vigilance, the Hall’s sudden surge of activity, and the defense’s preparations. They cast anxious eyes at the timeline, reckoning the time ‘ till Nov. 5, when they expect things to come to a head. Instantly they gather into organizations, the outcasts staring out of windows, wondering.
They know what’s coming: a problem to the Hall itself. Everyone is aware that everyone will be affected by the outcome, which they cannot forecast. The Hall has been in place for a while. A full generation has grown up in its shadow, not realizing it. Monthly budgets and protracted purchasing are what give it its powerful roots. Some of the line items in the budgets are thus institutionalized that they serve as faucet roots unto themselves.
From each main sprouts a recruitment procedure governed by a net of laws, itself consisting of 53 components and over 2, 000 websites. It’s a great tunnel. The Hall is by far” the largest consumer of goods and services in the world,” and its entire society has developed as a result. Yet “not-for-profit organizations that occasionally advise agencies, via grants or contracts from them, and frequently include employees who used to work for an organization or a related company company,” paid to have them hired by the Hall. One of the many openings between the Hall’s contractors and the hall’s extensive concourse of revolving doors is this. Once inside the structure, one you live there permanently. Take as an example the profession of a single man:

James Comey left his position as the Department of Justice’s deputy attorney general in 2005, spending time as both Bridgewater Associates and general counsel for both big provincial companies. In September 2013 he returned as director of the FBI and famously handled, or did n’t handle, the issue of Hillary Clinton’s private server holding classified and other government information.
This underlying framework serves as the basis for each component of the Hall. Get gender ideology, for example. Where did it come from in Washington? The Biden presidency used the Black Lives Matter turmoil as explanation to enact a slew of executive orders and memos establishing left-wing ideas at all levels of the federal state under the federal brand of “diversity, capital, and inclusion,” or DEI, when it took office in 2021.
As part of this initiative, the White House required each federal bureau to send detailed DEI progress reports frequently, appoint a deputy variety officer, and create” Agency Equity Teams”, whose officials were tasked with “delivering equal results”. These conditions made up what the president referred to as” an ambitious whole-of-government equity agenda.”
From that moment, the growth of the DEI line items, RFPs, and plaza of revolving doors had begun. Its inexorable process of elaboration was initiated by a new root system. Soon, it would become more prominent in the newly created positions and programs. The new program on the block would already be recognized by existing bureaucracies. Every town would be encouraged to have counterparts for foreign bureaucracies.

The town’s residents were skeptical that the newly arrived strangers fully comprehended the hall’s enormous strength and resilience and how powerful it was. Could they be aware that it could be torn to the ground before returning the moment they left? Did they have a theory that many a man who believed in himself the site’s new master would awaken at night to discover themselves buried in vines that had fallen overnight and never seen again? November 5 would be their doom.
But that’s what draws people to stories about men who travel and return with enigmatic companions as strangers. They have traveled somewhere, and they may have come back with information that the Hall’s residents and perhaps even the residents do not. Or else why would they have returned?
The hand rotates the face of the clock. The calendar’s pages are changing in sequence. The Hall is unaffected by the challenge from the edge of town. However, the suspense increases as the day draws nearer.
