He notes the second to fourth tier of government posts attract fewer competent Republicans as corporate executives vie for private sector rewards. He also observes educational and ethnic patterns and mentions historical Western Establishment contrasts with Eastern Establishment.

GOP strain in leadership and brain drain in public service
Cornelius Dwyer notes that the GOP struggles with recruiting experienced talent for government roles. He argues the party must accept the federal government’s persistence and elevate top professionals to public service, suggesting a reset toward seasoned leaders and even recruiting from within the Rockefeller wing after brainwashing in a CIA safe haven. He references Reagan White House appointments as evidence of youth and inexperience in sub cabinet posts.

Sunflower oil boom fuels American fields and exports
Washington reports a surge of native sunflowers becoming a major export crop. U S farmers harvested 3.5 million acres of oil sunflowers worth 441 million dollars, with 1.7 million tons of seeds and 332,000 tons of oil exported. Russia remains a top producer, while U S processing capacity grows with new plants in the Dakotas. The crop promises health and industrial uses, including fuels and plastics, as demand rises abroad. Industry figures cite high yield genetics and expanding crushing capacity to meet foreign demand.
