Elbridge Colby, President Donald Trump’s Under Secretary of Defense for Policy and the man running the U.S. proxy war against Russia in Ukraine, is the grandson of Nixon’s CIA Director William Colby, son of Jonathan Colby, a manager of the Carlyle Group, and nephew of Carl Colby, alleged to have participated in a covert operation targeting Bob Marley, and Christine Colby Giraudo, who worked for Hill & Knowlton.
Continuing the family tradition, Elbridge Colby’s Wikipedia page says that his “early career included over five years of service with the Department of Defense, the Department of State, and in the Intelligence Community.”
From 2018 to 2021, Elbridge Colby was at the firm chosen by so many CIA alumni, WestExec Advisors.
Short for West Executive Avenue, the street that runs between the White House and Eisenhower Executive Office Building, WestExec’s client list includes Blackrock, Bank of America, Facebook, Palantir, and Boeing.
It is campaign headquarters for the plan to get Ukraine into NATO and install a nuclear-armed fighting force there that is big enough to invade and conquer Russia.[1]
The woman who literally wrote the book on that plan, Celeste Wallander, was at WestExec before running the war in Ukraine as former President Joe Biden’s Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Affairs, and now she is back at WestExec.
WestExec co-founder Antony Blinken served as Biden’s Secretary of State, while WestExec shamelessly advised Ukraine on how to spend U.S. aid (to benefit its Pentagon contracting clients, of course).
