Chapter 854 -428: The Dispute with the White House
“That is a given, sir. Let me handle this matter, but before that, we have to do it this way…”
Sullivan started to lay out a series of plans for what was to follow.
…
Over the next few days, the incarceration of Governor Derick and others continued to be a topic of discussion throughout America.
And social platforms controlled by Jewish people, like Facebook and YouTube, kept voicing support for Derick and others, decrying their imprisonment.
However, on the fourth day, a piece of news broke that reignited this already hot topic.
According to a report from Reuters, the largest news agency in Britain, the Manhattan purge had attracted the White House’s high-level attention.
The White House was currently investigating the incident and might even consider a presidential pardon to free Derick and the others, if any irregularities were found.
Keep in mind, it was Inspector David himself who had personally seen to their imprisonment, and now Reuters was hinting that the President might restore freedom to these individuals with a pardon.
What did that imply?
It meant that there might be a rift between the White House and the Internal Revenue Service over this event, leading to such a face-slapping move!
Instantly, the topic surged to the top of social media headlines, sparking nationwide debate.
New York, Broadway Theatre.
“A pardon?”
David, who was watching a performance with a candidate for Congress, also received the news, his eyes narrowing slightly.
“Chief Inspector David, it looks like you might be in trouble. Of course, if you can handle this smoothly, then I will withdraw from the race and pass my resources on to your preferred candidate—it wouldn’t be a big deal.”
The candidate stood up, buttoning his suit jacket before departing.
“Chief Inspector, as Reuters is an authoritative media outlet, their sudden release of this information certainly doesn’t come from nowhere. I think it must be a hint dropped by the White House.”
David agreed with Manson’s opinion.
A few days earlier, Wylder had come to him, expressing dissatisfaction with the Manhattan purge and urging him to wrap things up quickly.
However, he didn’t back down, insisting on sending Derick and a slew of top officials to jail. Such a snub was bound to infuriate the White House.
“Chief Inspector, should we…”
“No need to worry yet; it’s just a rumor spread by Reuters, not an official statement from the White House. Let’s stick to the plan for now and settle the candidates first!”
He wanted to first deal with Derick and the others to secure New York State’s congressional seats, hoping that the so-called pardon from the White House was merely a probe…
Otherwise, the information he had collected last time would come in handy.
…
As the nation discussed the potential pardon for Derick and others, two more days passed.
On that day, the White House spokesperson held a press conference, where they announced a single agenda item: Considering the current FBI Director’s health reasons, the White House had formally accepted his resignation, and the next nominated candidate would be the Deputy Secretary of State, Newland.
To the general public, this news didn’t mean much. After all, in America, it was quite normal for departments to go through changes and updates.
The FBI, although an important agency, changing its head was not an extraordinary event.
However, to those standing at higher levels, this was quite a shocking development.
Ever since David’s last purge of the FBI, its senior officials had been walking on eggshells, fearful of David’s retaliation. Since then, one could say the agency had been held in David’s grip.
Now, the Agency Director had resigned, allegedly for health reasons, and was to be replaced by a Deputy Secretary of State.

Most critical was that this Deputy Secretary of State had Jewish heritage. What did this imply?
It implied that the White House was, to some extent, looking to regain control of the agency.
This, paired with Reuters’ recent information about the White House considering a pardon for Derick and others,
confirmed there was indeed a significant rift between the White House and the Internal Revenue Service!
Manhattan Branch.
In the office, David also received the news, his expression contemplative, as if deep in thought.
Just then, his phone rang on the desk. It was a call from Gavin. Picking up, he answered immediately, “Go ahead.”
“Chief Inspector David, I’m sure you’ve heard about the White House’s intention to nominate Newland. I’m on my way to New York now and would like to discuss this matter with you in person.”
“Okay, I’ll wait for you.”
Washington D.C. isn’t far from New York, and in a little over an hour, Gavin had arrived.
After entering the office, he spoke gravely, “According to the information I’ve received, there’s significant displeasure with the Manhattan purge from Payden, and our Director’s resignation wasn’t voluntary; the White House’s nomination of Newland is to retake complete control of the FBI.”
David was not surprised by this and asked calmly, “Based on what I know of our President, he wouldn’t dare do this without some kind of trump card. Am I right?”
“Yes. Have you heard of Sullivan?”
“The National Security Advisor, Sullivan?”
“That’s the one.”
“Go on.”
David was certainly aware of this Sullivan, a leading figure among America’s younger political set.
Moreover, this man had developed a series of foreign policy strategies for America and indeed was quite capable.
