Just came on Newsmax. We don't know if this is a "decoy" as Matt Gaetz may have been (i.e. to flush out the Swamp Rats), but we'll see.

Now if we can get Brandon Hererra for the ATF, and confirm Dan Bongino for USSS!

The nice thing is that Trump does not have to be so careful of feelings. This will be his last term, so, go for broke. I think part of the lesson learned from 2016 is that relying picks from the swamp tends to get you swampy picks. Instead, pick people you like and trust for your own reasons.

Absolutely zero lines in the Constitution that says he cannot pick from civilians and private industry his cabinet members.

And fuck the dems and fuck DC.
 
Now we are going to see just how much Senatorial blackmail material the alphabet agencies have and are willing to use to keep this from happening. Time to see who supports the swamp and who is interested in change.
 
That the senior FBI scum are blasting Patel as pick… tells me that he is exactly the right pick.

I think the democrats don’t like him be cause he is the wrong color. Being of Indian descent…

Now if he were to claim to be black and from a middle class family….

And damn right Trump should be picking outsiders! Swamp people fucked him last time. Turnabout is fair play.

Let’s see lots of resignations… and even more firings for malfeasance with 100 percent loss of pension and benefits. That will save some $$$$!!!

Sirhr
 

I wouldn't be so sure. Remember, we still have to elect Trump's successor in 2028 You know the dems will fight hard for that and use anything as fuel for that fire. Be it JD Vance or Ron DeSantis or whoever, you know the dems will try to use Trump's "behavior/actions" to justify why their dem candidate is better.
 

Downtown Nashville. IIRC, some loner with no friends or family and a fear of 5G got the blame. And just like that a major bombing in downtown Nashville got rabbit holes. Nothing to see. Move along.
 
By far this is the best and most important selection Trump will/has made. We will have to see how far Pam B. is willing to go though. She will be the limiting factor. Kash has a Very impressive resume and is the real deal. He's professed for many years that ALL of the docs need to be released so the people can see IT ALL. It's the only way. He also sees ghe FBI as fundamentally misguided in its mission of late and wants them to get back to being cops and not ops.

If Pam B doesn't get in the way, this will be mind blowing for most of America because Kash will actually do it. Epstien, Russia gate, Diddy list, 2020 election, "J6" and J6 committee, ect.... All are on the list to be released and without the redactions all over it. This will be awesome and is so badly needed.
 
I'm hoping ATF can get reworked entirely. We have way too many fed agencies and that's one of them. Not sure how far Pam will go and that's likely going to be the limiting factor with every individual agency reform or closure.
 

Hopefully, Patel will negotiate with Bondi to accept the essential remnants of the ATF (after it's been dismantled) into the FBI so he can control/reform that as well. And that could be why, for example, Pres. Trump hasn't named a new ATF director. Why do that if you're going to retire it?
 
I just read snippets of an 'Atlantic' article claiming that nominating Patel is "A constitutional crisis greater than Watergate".

I think Trump should start using the Left's playbook against them.

If someone opposes his female nominations or persons ANY shade darker than lily-white, he should light-heartedly pummel their detractors on traditional and social media as "misogynists" or "racists" and "members of the old way who don't want to see women or people who don't look like them in positions of power".

"XYZ has come out against my nomination of Kash Patel as FBI director. Mr. Patel should not be eliminated from consideration simply because of the Democrats' fear of having a person of color in such a prestigious and important position. Mr. Patel has been successful in the private sector AND has previously served faithfully in the federal government. He is the right person for the job. It saddens me that after all of this time, the Democrats are still driven by their hate for me and the racism that is so deeply rooted in their party."

What's good for the goose is good for the gander
