Intelligence

Description

Intelligence surges as a shadowy advisory powerhouse in the White House national security core, delivering urgent threat assessments alongside the State Department that propel embassy closures in Tanzania and Brussels. Sparked by Algerian terrorist Redin Hassan's nitroglycerin seizure at the Canadian border, it furnishes presidential-grade counsel on FAA protocols, risk thresholds, and protective timelines—fueling Bartlet's crisis deflection amid Oval bourbon rituals and shattering MS confessions, embodying the administration's veiled apparatus for threat triage and executive decision acceleration.
