Gaetz removes himself from AG consideration...

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/11/breaking-gaetz-withdraws-attorney-general-consideration/

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/gaetz-withdraws-consideration-attorney-general

Still options for Matt, recess appointment, selected to fill out Rubio's seat (would be a great middle finger to those AINO/RINO/Cuck pricks!), advisor to POTUS...

IS his resignation from Congress all encompassing or does it affect only his current (ending) term? Because he was re-elected, yes?

Trump could consider him for a SCOTUS seat if one opens up, still young, could be there for decades!

Up next?

Ken Paxton? Andrew Bailey? Kash Patel? Mark Levine? Heh!

Anyway... TBD

I still hold to the hope he is Rubio's replacement...that chamber with its commies and cucks sorely needs a constant F-U in the face!!!

Well I was surprised by the Bondi pick for AG nominee #2...

Sundance I think just lost it...

Pam Bondi?

For U.S. Attorney General?

The woman who as Florida Attorney General, conspired to put a transparently innocent man in prison. A man she knew was innocent.

Pam Bondi, the enabler of Benjamin Crump.

Pam Bondi, the co-conspirator to corrupt Jacksonville District Attorney, Angela Corey …. Who was Bondi’s friggin’ CAMPAIGN MANAGER!

I can’t right now…. GO READ THE ARCHIVES HERE
I’ll be back after a cool-off walk.

I support President Trump. But this is ridiculous.

Pam Bondi to end political corruption? A joke!

https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2024/11/21/pam-bondi/

More Sundance...

https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2024/11/21/president-trump-nominates-pam-bondi-for-u-s-attorney-general-the-deep-swamp-smiles/

I get it, she either had bad taste in friends like Crump and/or was disturbingly naive about what they were up to in this civil case that nobody in the criminal investigation wanted to pursue in any way...or she knew exactly who and what Crump was and what they were up to and went along with it...

And at least she registered her foreign agent work...

https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2024/11/22/ag-nominee-pam-bondi-and-chief-of-staff-susie-wiles-ballard-partners-law-firm-lobbyists/

...as far as hard ties to Rubin and his schemes...I dunno about that, but the optics look unflattering for sure.

Did Susie offer her up? Probably. Did Trump recall her assistance in his first bogus impeachment by the Pelosi Politburo? Certainly.

I just think there is a head-fake or a trick-play yet to be made her, maybe I am being naive...but maybe a switch happens if a Recess of Congress is achieved, or maybe Gaetz can be named a Special Counsel. Regardless, this puts just a sh*t-ton of pressure on the Deputies and Assistants in this swampy department!

Even a holding action is a loss...we desperately need a win in this department, so yeah this is going to keep us awake at night.

If confirmed, better be on the shortest leash possible!

Russ Vought at OMB again, good guy, good pick.

https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2024/11/22/president-trump-nominates-russ-vought-for-director-of-office-of-management-and-budget-omb/

Scott Bessent for Treasury - https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2024/11/22/president-trump-announces-scott-bessent-as-nominee-for-treasury-secretary/

https://www.zerohedge.com/economics/trump-names-billionaire-scott-bessent-treasury-secretary

I will judge a man on his character first, always...in policy it appears to me Bassent and Trump are in alignment...I think from a duties/goals point of view this pick doesn't concern me, but yeah any Soros connection causes nervousness, but he was an employee not a consiglieri and close personal pal...so, even scumbags can hire competent executives. I will remain neutral on this pick.

Lori Chavez-DeRemer for Labor - https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2024/11/22/president-trump-nominates-lori-chavez-deremer-for-secretary-of-labor/

Seems a good fit. Though, I think some DOGE impact is coming for any woke BS.

SG, FDA & CDC do look RFK,Jr driven...

https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2024/11/22/president-trump-announces-nominees-for-surgeon-general-fda-and-cdc/

Weakest looks to be SG, and I wonder what value there even is in the role any more... There will be DOGE work aplenty under all of this. The CDC pick looks solid and the FDA pick looks outstanding.

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/trump-taps-covid-contrarian-and-public-health-critic-makary-fda

Will be nice to see a return to a real scientific method and credible vetting and no more blank checks for rent-seeking whores and no consequences for BigPharma!

Oh, and need to look into this stuff!

Safe drinking water ought to be everybody's fricken priority!

Brooke Rollins for Agriculture - https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2024/11/23/president-trump-announces-nomination-of-brooke-rollins-as-secretary-of-agriculture/

Looks like a solid pick, got some overdue cleanup here to do.

And I hope Grenell does become the Special Enjoy to Ukraine - good man on-point there and another guardrail for Rubio!

As for this, court battles (who is bringing them?) don't scare me...use impoundment!

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/trump-plans-use-impoundment-cut-spending-what-it

And legislate away that despicable 1974 ICA!!!

Impoundment? Huh. I did not read the whole thing.
I would think that the president as commander in chief does not have to do military things just bc congress authorized the money..

Libertas · « **Reply #65 on:** November 26, 2024, 12:04:04 PM »

There is legalistic protocol to follow but it can be done...and that's just on the money side...on the military action side President much stronger sole authority...

This is hilarious...

Justin (Castro) bloviates about feelings while agreeing to cooperate with Trump...and the comment by Ford crying about tariffs and being a big fat racist and saying Canadians are not Mexicans...

https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2024/11/26/canada-responds-to-trump-tariffs-trudeau-talks-about-feelings-doug-ford-says-hey-were-not-mexicans/

And the new ruling party moron in Mexico threatens retaliation!

https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2024/11/26/a-winnamin-overdose-mexico-threatens-to-retaliate-against-trump-border-security-tariffs/

Retaliate with what, nobody knows...Trump has a straight-heart-royal flush and she's sitting their with a pair of deuces...and she thinks going all-in isn't the worst bluff in the history of bluffs?

As for this...

https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2024/11/26/as-senate-uniparty-prepares-their-defenses-against-president-trump-watch-for-one-remaining-announcement/

...we know a crap-ton of scrutiny and pressure is going to need to be applied at regular intervals to blunt as much as possible the schemes of the DeceptiCon Cucks...a combination of quiet Trump lobbying behind the scenes and some direct or indirect strong-arming and appeals to We the People to get on their backsliding backsides!

This is good news! Albeit for disturbing reasons - aka we cannot trust the bureaucrats to behave like normal honest ethical American's! If this doesn't scream for massive flushing of personnel across the board then people are beyond stupid.

More Trump picks -

Jamieson Greer as USTR reporting through Lutnick at Commerce and Kevin Hassett as NEC Director (not subject to confirmation) - two great picks!

https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2024/11/26/president-trump-announces-two-more-economic-positions-u-s-trade-ambassador-and-director-of-national-economic-council/

And Dr Jay Bhattacharya as NIH Director & Jim O’Neill for Deputy HHS - https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2024/11/26/president-trump-announces-additional-nominees-for-rfk-jr-team-at-hhs/

And I really like the Bhattacharya selection, as a co-author of the Great Barrington Declaration we can envision the anti-scientific socialist-engineering acolytes of the Fauci et al will be flushed and American medicine can return to a real, peer-reviewed scientific-method based foundation it should have NEVER been led away from!

President Trump Announces Kash Patel “Will Serve As” FBI Director

So, what does all this mean?

I have no idea, and, quite frankly, knowing Trump, I’m not going near this with a 10-foot pole.
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2024/11/30/president-trump-announces-kash-patel-will-serve-as-fbi-director/

He's playing hardball, he's telling more than one faction within the bureaucracy and its allies in elected office he intends to get stuff done, not just any stuff, big hairy stuff!

He's throwing it all on them to determine how and how much they wish to battle him and his agenda sealed with an electoral mandate...and that how much part will identify fresh targets of opportunity...so it's winning on multiple levels.

I like!

Interesting, quite a few of Mr. Trump's upcoming appointments are actually preceded by a "Firing". The major cabinet appointments like State, and Defence automatically replace an appointee the minute Trump takes the oath. Other appointments, like FBI, are normally for "x " number
years, regardless of who is President. (Remember, it last term, he had to fire the standing FBI Director) Difference is now, he's not wasting the time.

And no slam on Ron, I just think Pete is better...would think if Ron is honest he'd agree.

Besides, I think Ron wants a run at '28...and that could be a showdown with Vance in the primaries...
