Marion Bosworth (Earth-5082)

"Gentlemen, the Blacklist is real. Rogue intel agencies like Third Echelon are the problem here, not the solution. I want every single operation related to them grounded and gutted, now! I'm shutting Third Echelon down, effective immediately."

Biography
House Speaker Marion Cadwell Bosworth began her Presidential campaign with the Democratic Party in 2016. Her popularity rose thanks to her "Bridge the Gap" campaign, which saw the United States strengthening its relations with China via communications and intelligence sharing, with a heavy focus on cyber-defense.

While her campaign with China was heavy successful, not the same could be said to other non-EU nations, such as Russia, which made Bosworth powerful enemies, from Washington, D.C. to private corporations. This caused her to assemble a small, but select and studied group of people in which she would rely for the following years.

In her continuous presidency, President Marion came to the conclusion that Third Echelon had outlived its usefulness. Coped with her refusal to cooperate with the mysterious group Syndicate, this made Bosworth a target of Third Echelon's Director, and secret Syndicate operative Tom Reed, who plotted to have her killed and succeeded by her Vice President, Calvin Samson, of Syndicate's choosing, through a staged terrorist attack on Washington, D.C.. For this attack, the Syndicate used Russian EMP technology accompanied with Black Arrow mercenaries, Third Echelon Splinter Cells, and local security forces.

However, Reed's plan became threatened when he discovered Max Fisher found out about his conspiracy. Devising a strategy, he planned to use Max and frame him for the assassination and proceed to kill Fisher. However, with the help of Anna Grímsdóttir, Max was able to prevent the attacks, with Anna acting as a mole for President Bosworth within Third Echelon.
