Line 11:

'''Jerome Archer''' is the Vice President of the [[Federation]] under the administration of [[President of the Federation|Federal President]] [[Zachary Hudson]]. Appointed by Hudson in March 3307 to replace the late [[Brad Mitchell]], Archer was previously a [[Congressman]] and the Secretary of Security within Hudson's Cabinet. Before that he served as Director of the [[Federal Intelligence Agency]], and had a long career in law enforcement. In a statement before [[Federal Congress]] on the day of his appointment as Vice President, Archer stated that he planned to use his authority to enhance security and vigilance within the Federation.

Archer's first major success as vice president was the [[Domestic Counter-Terrorism Act]], approved by Congress on March 30, 3307, which he drafted and sponsored. Archer's ties to the FIA allowed him to make rapid progress with Federal security services in implementing the law, which resulted in the creation of the [[Proactive Detection Bureau]] on April 6. Despite controversy over the PDB directly instigating the [[Federal Rebellion of 3307]], Archer's support for it did not waver~~, and he~~ countered criticism by arguing that strengthening the Federal government's surveillance powers had demonstrably increased security and reduced crimes throughout Federal space.

*The [[Proactive Detection Bureau]] has been instrumental in identifying violent corporatist extremists within the [[Federation]]. Deputy Director [[Bethany Blake]] of the [[Federal Intelligence Agency]] gave a statement to the media: "In recent weeks, our surveillance algorithms flagged a series of coded communications for investigation. We found that a network of radicalised citizens were discussing plans to assassinate [[Congressman|members of Congress]] and leading political figures. This movement, which calls itself [[Jupiter's Wrath]], is inspired by [[Jupiter Rochester]]'s failed attempt to enable corporations to directly rule the Federation. Their goal was to enact revenge on those who they consider to be the 'enemies of [[Jupiter Division]]'. Using data intercepted by the Proactive Detection Bureau, FIA agents performed a series of coordinated strikes in several Federal systems. Over a thousand armed extremists were arrested before they could act. We are currently working to identify the remaining Jupiter's Wrath members." Vice President Jerome Archer claimed that this was further validation of the [[Domestic Counter-Terrorism Act]], which permitted the PDB to be established. However, [[Shadow President]] [[Felicia Winters]] commented: "I commend the FIA for performing their duties. But I also question the timing of this operation, coming so soon after [[Zachary Hudson|President Hudson's]] appallingly reckless attempt to capture [[Yuri Grom]]. To me it seems calculated to show his administration in a positive light, while ignoring the violation of citizens' privacy."<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/6166caf44f1b9b3bc636964f GalNet: Federal Terrorist Network Exposed]</ref>

*A further seven [[Federation|Federal]] factions have severed ties with the superpower in protest against government monitoring of communications. These latest secessions have been undertaken by minor factions that do not control any systems, including Unktock Free, United Posenoi League and Progressive Party of Inggale. Political journalist [[Sofia Trevino]] reported for The [[Federal Times]]: "Eight factions had previously declared [[Independent|independence]] from the Federation, and now an even greater number forms the third wave of [[Federal Rebellion of 3307|rebellion]]. It's clear that their populations feel empowered to take a stand against losing their constitutional rights of privacy. Vice President Archer shrugged off this latest development, maintaining that 'the [[Proactive Detection Bureau]] performs a vital security role in these troubled times'. Since none of these latest factions currently govern a system, he may also believe that resistance to the PDB is on the wane. Although these events have only impacted a small part of Federal territory, they remain an embarrassment for [[Zachary Hudson|President Hudson's]] administration. [[Felicia Winters|Shadow President Winters]] continues to implore [[Federal Congress|Congress]] to repeal the [[Domestic Counter-Terrorism Act]], but she has also taken political criticism since many feel her rhetoric inspired these factions to secede."<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/613f3d4bc31cf61ae31cda95 GalNet: Rebellion Spreads Through the Federation]</ref>
