Replacements in Cabinet appointments

Secretary of State    -      Blinken replaced by Rubio

Hmeland Security     -      Mayorkas replaced by Governor Noem

Education                 -      Cardona replaced by McMahon

Defense                     -      Austin replaced by Steve Hegseff 

Attorney Genera;       -      Garland replaced by Pat Nomdi

Health                        -      Becerra replaced by Robert F Knnedy 

intenal Affairs            -      The ugly thing was replaced by Governor Buchum

The above 3 Democraic Secretaries wer all three Super Shit,   Blinken was a childish BSter who came o SA to promoted the USA invovlement in the Ukraine War and wanted  SA to help the USA in getting to convince the African Countries to support the USA in te UN - was givn a lecture on peaceful settlment of issues by negotiations by Mrs Pandor - then he SAMinister of Foreign Affairs.    When he hen stared prmoting the War - Mrs Pandor got up from her chair and told Blinken he wa wasing her time and she alked ut of he meeting.   However, he same Blinke answering questios i the Senate start screaming and never answered qustions.   A typical petty dictator not fit for a job whee diplomacy is needed,   The man was a serios flop as Foreign Secretary -  and called Blinkty because he could neve be rusted.

Mayorkas was supershit/   H was unable toanswer an questions in Senate and never knew anything about the goigs onin his Department.   Hi andling ofhe Open Border polcy of Biden s a ttoal national dosaser.   He never knew what was happening in his Dparment and whe questioned in Senate - he openly tried to lie and refused to answer questions.     His sstun wa to tr ad gove lctures when  he answes were a simple Yes or No.   He wa tod in Senate repeeaedly that he was a National Disgrace and should rsign - but he never did.   Tis an was inded a national disgrace.

Cardona was a scandal ridden idiot,   When challen ged on he isue of unaccmpanied migrant children after he New York Times exposed the tragedy of the children - he famously said he way the mater wa hadnled by saying that is not he way Ford handled assemmbly lines and i made him ultra-rich.   H hen said also if to his senior staff if hey cannot dispose of the children smuggled into the country quickly enough he would find somebody who can.   The result w that unaccompanied cildren was haded to human affickers and sex taffickers and used as slave in the USA.    Most fo eh chidrn in plin sight b te cartels on he border and he snet over to the US side of the border.   

In the USA Education is a Stae Funcion ad not a federal funcion.   So  the DA creted a Sper Federal education department in Washington to promote brainwashing of children in schools.   Oher unctions were heinous.   They were tryimng to curn children to hate their familes and parens rights as mentors of heir children was to be replaed by Salinistmehods,   Children was encouraged  in Demcoratically controlled Sates o undergo sex change treatment and perations wihou their parents permission and if the aretns objected the children was ken waway from them.   T oecome tha problem of Stalinist beaior he Department a we knw i il be abolished and replaced by monitors to nsure educaion standards in Gvenment schools are imprved and proper education given to children Contry-wide.  The Education Department will consist f monotrs to enhance eucation o chldren and stop the main unction o he educaion department to destroy childen and their family lives and insead upgarde eduction standards,   

Trump as also created a ne Department t monitor efficient Administartion and honest and proper govrance by the cvarious Dpartment .   Te relevant Department will repor o their work to Musk and Ramawami - to top class business moguls,    Thta i what every Government should have - operating the Public Service to maximum efficincy  and co-operate with the Auditor Geenreal in enhancig honest and responsible Governance.   The past situation - ike happened in he Wuhan Fudng frad system will beeliminaed in future,  

Advirsors      .                                      

The whole set-up of close advisors attached to the WH.    One of the best changes is to get rid of the ultra-corrupt Clinont partn4r - John Podesta - from te EPA.   A tiriuough audit of how much money went to odeta's ak companieshandlig Green and Global Warming scam.

         -          

The new Secretary of Defense is Pete Hegseff a host at Fox News.   He had a distinguished militray career in Afghaistan and Iraq and wil have te masive task to clean out the corrupt ridden Defense Force,   Another exellent choice by Trump.    The media will hate it though - the problem is that Hegseff  worked for Fox News is all that is needed to flod the emdia wih BS .         

Trump has made some great picks. 

The big task is to ensure no Uniparty Rinos slip in. Trump wisely told Pompeo and Halley thanks but no thanks.

The Biden Admin was precisely  the disaster it was planned to be. They thought however their media could keep the American People fooled and that their election fraud would ensure they kept power. 

Some terrible consequences have arrived for MSNBC and CNN whose viewership has plunged. I will post some articles about the collapse of the Globalist media in due course. 

Also the LA Times owner has fired the entire editorial staff and says in future he wants proper balanced reporting. 

I see Trump's media company is now worth 4 billion. That is likely to grow over the next 4 years.

Today we will learn who becomes Senate leader. Social media and all over the place has seen the GOP base demanding that Scott become Senate Majority Leader. Lots of Rinos in the Senate but anybody voting for Thune or Corbyn will get the boot next time they stand for reelection. It appears their main object is to block or slow die the Trump agenda much as they did last time. Will be more difficult this time as Trump has definitely got a mandate. 

Terrible election fraud has taken place. Trump Vowed these people will get prose cuted if they cheat. So here is hoping. 

One o th main functions Trump should embark on is the appointment of a Election Integruty Commission - whose task should be how election fraud is to eb eliminated,    

This should start with voter registration and what is to be done as to non-citizens. the dead and the missing voters being on the roll.    In essense here should be a system developed to automaically removal o voes who die and thsoe moving to another adress  - the mment they reister as a oter at their new address he rgistration at his old address should be automatically cancelled/    Summary a clean-up of he roll is essential.   

New registration f voter should be based on production of proepr idntificatio and the system used should be registerd on the voters ill backup ad when election tomes come,   In other words the system should also be allowing for proper voter identification.   

Rge next sep relates to voter security,    I a person in the USA or in any foreign country aplplies for a mailin Ballot the vot should be sent t he election official in the area where the  applicant in he areaa where te applicant are wen e asked to vote andth gent shp;d take te vpts to the vote and had him the vote,   Simltaneously he sould gt he id partcularsfrom the voter toe nsure he is indeed the person who applie for he voe and the send the vote to the countig office where it is to be counted,   

No votes should ever be mailed out to voters withou a prope application has ben made - i jeopardi vote secuiy totally.   Each voe should have a  seial number and should hae a secret ssytem on its back  to ensure that votes cano be prined by people and sen in as legitimate otes.

On voting dys prior to h eection day the peple must bring the ID documents with them and produce them before a vote is pased to the voter and afte voting the vot is to put in yr box of vote after the vote show the prof of i ebing a legitimate vote can be deposited in the Box.   Only votes send by election agents    should arrive at he polling station within before - dring the election day and within 2 susequnt dayss tereater shpuld be counted, 

Seantor Thune of South Dakota wa elected as new Majority leader in e Senate.   If he tries the same RINO stance of McConnell he will be ut wihin a day.    He beter make sure that the Senators is united behind the leadership of Trump and not become a rogue and secret Democrat.

If he did what McConnell did in 2022 - he will not lst beond  2026.    .    ,   

 Well done Senator Thune. So conservatism fights back from MAGA redneckism.

But....   The attorney general is Matt Gates. Ha, Ha. Is Matt Gates even a conservative person?

SB

Gaetz - I am surprised in one way and not in another.     Te Jutice Deaprtment beccame the main dictaorsh ip arm of the Democrts and the FBI - fallng under the Attorney General - becae increasinly undermining  the Jutoce system.   For yers the FBI tried to frame Gatz in a farcical case o ex with another student - but the only problem is they bugered up royally.   When they claimed the incidnt happen Gaetz was not i he USA at all.   he cae went on for hree years and after three years of advertizing it i the media the droped the case.   Th myh started after Gaetz attacked he BI for theor rrole i undermining ivestigatios of corruption amongst politicians.

The FNI must piss hemselves after the anocement.    Their whole manageent rather resign before they gt fired.   This is also Trumps revenge  on them for years of abuuse and lies and their liaison with the emdia about lies,    Take for instance the raid on Trumps home where hey break all he rules appicable.   fter he raid they releesed 2 fake photos about what they found at Trumps home.to the media.    When Smith laid charges against Trump in Florida the judge ordered Smith and the FBI to return all the documents thhe FBI took away back to hte Court for inspection by Trump's defense team.   The Judgge wa already miffed by the fact th two photos takn out were fakes - and when the FNI keep delaying the return of the ducuments the Judge ordered that if they do not provide the documents to the court wihin 14 days hey would be charged with undermining the court.   The FBI took 32 boxes of documents and ended up sending the court 21 boxes of ducu,emts and eve from those  21 boxes docments vanished,    That was when the judge through ot the case and ruled that Smith wa silegally appointed s Special Council.   

One cannot have a Police Service that illegaly and uncontitutionally spy on 278 000  peol because Biden called opponents to is regime "White Domestic Terrorists"  and let the FBI loose on them.   his came out whe the FIX Court exposed he spying and founmd the FBI  guit of illegal actions in that regard,

The above indicates a tendency that should ever exisr in a Democracy is urageous in a emocratic country.   

The FBI now will be cleaned from top to bottom and restore real  policing in the  USA.   

Read the above  and look at the vedio's/    I thought  Senator Hawleymay be nominated as Attoney General - but Trump decided that he is two valuable as a Senator - so he nominat Gaetz appoited Gaetz to make sre the rot be removed from FBI.     I hope  they clean out that aborion of polcing  in he USA.

Well done Senator Thune. So conservatism fights back from MAGA redneckism'

Live in happy delirium please - if Thune undrmine the polciies approved by the voters of the USA - he would not last a day in that job,    .      

Diector of National Intelligence - head of all inttlegnce agaencies  will be headed by a new Director - Thulsi Gabbard,  Another Democrat who urned against the ultra left DP/       

Matt Gaetz is a crazy pick…..so much less qualified than Barr who is a heavyweight. Depressing.

We've all seen this playbook......the one with a revolving door.

Mozart

I agree wih you on Geatz - but I realize what is going on.    Barr is not going to be used.   All the people Trump picked are relatively young and none of  the people picked - bar Geatz ae conroversial picks.    I would have picked  Senator Hawley instead of  Geatz - which may have some approal problms in he Senate/    Hawley was a brilliant student and a top clas legal heavyeight in his caeeer thus far.    As successful as he was in the elegal field so successful he was in his private investments making him a very wealthy man.  

Most of he picks ae people who played a major role in the Committee system in either the House or the Senate - while Hegseff  is and was a fighting soldier and not a deskbound one that eaened their gongs sitting at desks and not in batlles.     He was highly citical and deservedly  so of he quality of people in charge of the US Army and Trump told the Generals in charge of the  Afghanisan wthdrawal that he wants their resignation letters on his table when he arrive from his swear in ceremney or othewise they would be fired.

However, I think that the FBI became an organizion that were horrible in crime fighting and regarded themseleves as above the law and the Constitution  and was totally uacceptable.    If there is some cleaning up to be done it is in the FBI and CIA in partcular..

In general I think there are especilly three politicians that must be preparing hemselves for jail time it is Pelosi, Schiff , Podesta and and the Clintons.     I do not think Biden himself will be charged due to his diminishing mental state as stated by Special Council Hur in is report.  ,    All of the people mentioned are closely tied to corruption involvivg Russia and Ukraine. and there are bundles o documenary proof of  corruption -  while Pelosi was the inside trading specialist as well.    When new Government contracts of massive proportions were about to be signed Pelosi's husband would spend millions on buying shares in the  companies involved.

There are other criminals invovled in state contracts as well - like Dick and Liz Cheyne tied  to  the  company called Haliburton.    Haliburton got contracts iro of the Afghanistan and Iraq war when Cheyne senior was VP  in 2006 and  they were also allocated a similar contract iro of the Ukraine War.  - at present they opeate from Poland.    It is a huge moneymaking scheme and the way the ontracts were handled  - ie not on a tender basis - is part of a major scam.   In 2006  the contract amounted to  $156 milion a year and in the 18 years it was continuig the contract price increased by 10% per year in Afghanistan and Iraq.    When the work in Afghanistan was shut down - they got a new contract iro of he Ukraine War.      The bust up beween Trump and Liz Cheyne came when in 2019 Trump staed publicly that he was going to have experts investigate the contracts as it entails coruption.   Liz Cheye benefit from the contracts as well.   

The other stinker invovled is that since 2003 the finances of the Defensee Department had never been audited.    Hegseff spoke a number of times on TV about it and the last time in Congress when raised the Defense Department said  in evidence the Department does not  have the staff to do the auditing - which is amazing since hat function of auting is normally he responsibility of the Auditor General.   Another  problem was that the AG reported two year ago that  $5,4 billion in  aid funds to bsuiesses - part of he relief measures to assist small and medium businesses  as a result of COVID vanshed into hin air and was reported on by the AG in his report 2 years ago - but he FBI did virtually nothing about investigating who was invlced in criminology in that case,    

It is an open book that when Trump started looking for replacement of the  F15 fighte jets he asked the contractors how much they would charge per plane and they said  $2,389 billion per plane,   He did a calculation and redced the price by 15% and in discusion with the amunfacturers said that if any kicbacks to Defense Force staff and politicians were found to happen he would act against both the manufacturers and staff  and politicians nvolved.   The Manufacturers accepted the offer Trump made and the delivery of he planes started already in the Biden presidency - but the price charge are unknwon at present.    Hegsef will have a  massive job as to the mess in the  Defense Department.   

Personally I think Trump use Geatz name to scare he FBI  leadersip to resign before he resumes office  and he would withdraw the noination and appoint either Senator Hawley or the Missouri State Attorney to that positon.

There are five  appointments I am very happy about  and  know it would save the Government Hundreds of Billions a year in fruiless public expenditure:-

I have already mentioned hhe Defense Department but here are the oher 4:-

The Appoitment of Governor Noem as Sev=retary of Homelanad Security and Hona as Border Tzar wil clean up the border mess and deal with the missing naccompanied children smgged into the country by the Mexi can cartels,   That will not only represnts a money saver - but also deal with a huminitarian cricis even the New York Times raised in a sries of articles,     

The appointment of  the DIA nominee to replace John Podesta  in the White House - that guy is a poisonous racketeer that got massive bribes from Russia when he was ivovled in Green operations.  He even got 75 000 share in a Russian Company with links to the Kremlin and when appointed by Obama transferred the shares to a company his daghter registered in Verrmnt.   Rosarom invested $180 millon in a comapny owned by Podesta regisered in Boston.   The FBI knows about that situation - but did nothing about it.  He is likely to  end up in jail for bribery and corruption -   You can read about that one yourself.

The fourth one is dealing with Education.   In terms of the US Contitution Eucation is a State function not a Federal Function.   Under Obama a Fderal Department of Education was estbalished and rapidly expaded and their main objectie was programs dealing with brainwashing of children -  a concept used by Stalin in the late and nlamented USSR.    The projects are run by extreme leftwing idealogues and entail programs  causing Musk to relocate his operations from California to Texas.   The quality of Eduction in State chols in the USA is a bad as it is in most  Black state schools in SA.    The Federal Education Deparmnent  should be remoddeled to deal with educaion quality issues and ensure tha States do not  use systems that reduced quality Education into a farce.

The fifth  and to my mind the most important one  is the appointment of a Department of Govenment Integrity headed by Musk and Ramswami.   I believe that Gvoernment should operate the  Public Service n sound business [princoles and not  what he public geenrally calls red tape.    There are services that create nothing and schieve nohing while costing billions and those and the regulatins they compile should end up in trash cans,    Reagan used those  princples when he was Governor of California and later on as President - but since his presidency the comcept was forgotten and subsequent President abandoned it totally.   I think Trump appointed two leaders in that progam - each with specialist nowledge of different operational expertise  and they were given till July 2026 to clear up the mess created over the last 30 years by successive Presidents.   Public Servants in General live by regulations they issued thesmlves and knows zero about sound economic business operatins - while poiticians spent tax money like it is their own pocket book expenses,    That alone would save the Federal Government to live without taking out additioanl borrowing of money to coer curent Gvrnment expenditure,

   .   .    .       

     .  ,  .          .    .      

In general I think there are especilly three   one politician that must be preparing hemselves for jail time it is Pelozi, Schiff , Jhn Podesta and and the Clintons Donald Trump.

Denny 

yYou are pricelessly funny - but totally ill-informed.    The FBI knew excl wat they ave done and proect them accordingly.   TRump has never been accused of any corruption - as a matter of fac he did not evn take his salary as president - he donaed ot totally to welfare organizations.   And e fake charges against TRump are going nowhere since none of them wer absed on proof and was asystem decided on by the Biden Administration and the DC to undrmie his election capaign.   If Trump was not a canddate - no charges would have bee laid about aything.   So try again.          

He's a convicted felon......... you can't take that away from him ........... plus he's batshit.

Shame on you.

Barr is a heavyweight for sure. He is a full on fat blob of a man and a back stabbing coward. A real Rino Uniparty traitor. 

Gaetz is very impressive. I have seen him operating at Congressional hearings. He is a brilliant guy. 

The c harges against Gaetz were dropped by the DOJ. 

Loved the way Gaetz got rid of Rino McCarthy. Hahahahaha. 

Gaetz is full on MAGA and will go flat out to bring to justice the many political criminals operating in Washington. 

Unlike Sessions and Barr who were back stabbing Rinos, Gaetz will stand with Trump and other Patriots trying to save America. 

Trust Globalist Rino mozzietard to suggest Barr for AG. This same Never Trumper also supported Globalist Uniparty Rino and NeoCon Nikki Haley. 

Mozzietard thought Trump couldn't win. Bwahahahaha. This out of touch Globalist shill has no clue whatsoever. 

As for poor blobbrain and sharktwit they remain bone heads of tbe first order! 

I see Tulsi will BE DNI. 

She has been pers ued by the FBI.

As with Gaetz the Hunted are now becoming the Hunters. 

BB

When was the sentence that Trump is  felon passed = befoe he is senenced  h is NOT a felon.   

Gaetz is very impressive. I have seen him operating at Congressional hearings. He is a brilliant guy.

This the guy under an ethics investigation for sex trafficking and statutory rape? Sounds like a real Beeno type of guy alright.

Stav 

This story happened I believe when Geatz were a student and the FBI started investifgating him after Geatz attacked the FBI in the House,    As per normal the FBI buggered up royally - when  they were asked for details at a date when the incident the FBI gave a date when it happened that  Geatz was not in the USA.    They then 4 years ago they stopped the investigation because it was based on standard FBI  BS and lies.   The FBI was involved in strings of fake and false chargs against people and if there was anything true in their BS they would have charged Geatz of the alleged crime -even  the girl the FBI was claiming was involved denied it ever happened.   

You stated openly that he FBI waned every person crtical of them, in jail.   Their credibility in the USA is at its lowest level ever.    The fact is I don't myself suport Geatz's nomination - I ould have preferred Senator Hawley as te candidate nominated by Trump - he has done even more than Geatz did in exposing the FBI as a body who believes they have the right to operae above the law and the US Cnstitution,     In his regard you are referred string of video's where te FBI was plainly either lying or refusing to answer questions.    Incientally the money paid for using the Gulf Stream jet was the amount he would have paid for a first class seat on a normal airline in one case.

I would think that like the Generals in the Defense Department  the Jstice Department will be found to loe at east 50% of their to Generals  and in the Justice Department 80% of their stadff ad the FBI at leat 90% of their mnagement structure.    It was two Departments where corruption ruled supreme.

By the way the apointment of Hegseff  was in  a funy way about Hegseff - bearing in mind he was a figting soldier and not a desk bound desk worker like most of teh generals in the Defense Force became.    Commanding the army in a war will be the major collapse of the US Army under present cmmand.   So watch the following video:-

The BS pedaling in this thread is incredible...still no introspection...same old k@k...you can’t fix stupid!!!...GO Donald!!!

".....introspection..."

Now there's a laugh, where was your introspection after Trump lost the election and had 60 Judges dismiss his claim of election fraud.

And while you get that into your head where is your introspection when Trump sat and watched the J6 rioters on telly ignoring his family members pleas to call them off.

Yes I know you have the usual stock standard Trump excuses and justifications.......nyaah nyaaah...spare me I've heard them all over and over again.

Hush money.....guilty as charged. We now have a low life crim running the free world.

To think that this batshit felon will sit down with a serial war criminal to decide the fate of 40million Ukranians.

To think that this batshit felon will sit down with a serial war criminal to decide the fate of 40million Ukranians.

Not sure which is more nauseating.......the above or reading the forthcoming vomit spewed in his defence  by the TrumpZombies .

You do not follow anything.   In an opion poll `about six months ago 61% said there were voter fraud i 2020 and of those 18% said that they have not been shown proof that the fraud would have change  the outvome of the eeelction.

In 2020 Biden got 8I,5 million votes and Trump 75,2 milion voes.   Despite major registration progrms of death sare miion of people fled from  California and New York to states governed by the Republicans -  the outcome of this years selecion resuled in Trump maintainng his 75 million+ votes and the Democrasgettin 8,5 milion les than they got in 2020,   So why did they happen?   The answer is obvious in 2020 here were 25 million mail in votes without any voter identification and those 25 million "votes"   won the 2020 election,   This year there ere 15 million mail in votes with a large part also voted with  identification proof - in other words  their were much more strict observation over vote counting and the question is was there sucha a huge decrease in vtes cast and so big a drop in voters who voted for he Democrats.   The answer at least 10 million of the '"votes" in 2020 was due in plain words no eal votes and the Democrats worked full time to produce "votes" that cause Biden in 2020  got 10 million vote from non-existent "voters".  Trump in 2020 got 75 million+ votes and in 2024  and he got 75 million + votes in 2024,    

In all the media this year there were  an amazing vote turnout - yet the Demmcrats cssted  8 million votes the story is clear there were at least 8 million+ fake votes in 2020.   

I honestly don't give a f k about the future of the USA, never have.

Slava Ukraini!

"They made their own choice, and have no excuses for what's coming"

Care to tell us all what is coming.......

"Many "good people" are coming, DA"

Agreed Plum

If someone like Stav states "they have no excuses for what's coming", then I can only assume that he clearly does believe that certain things are going to happen under Trump ..... so if he wants to make a bold statement like this, then I would expect that he would be more than willing to tell us exactly what he believes is "coming" with this Trump presidency ........ maybe some very clear examples that we can compare back to, to see if he was correct about Trump.....

If you are so sure about it, I don't see why you wouldn't want to put it in writing here and now for everyone to see

Well I don't have a crystal ball but here are some of things that I reckon could happen.

If Trump enacts his plans on tariffs and deportations he will cause inflation to spike. How much so depends on far he goes with both the tariffs and deportations. If its anything like some of the higher figures that have been suggested 10-20% tariff on all import's and the much higher tariffs on Chinese imports, and the deportations range into the millions, the inflation will likely be worse than what occurred during Biden's term. GDP growth will be lower than it would be without those measures as well.

The resulting trade war caused by the tariffs will damage the rest of the worlds economy and strain American relations with the rest of the world.

The Affordable Care Act will not be extended, resulting in millions of American's losing health care cover.

With the Department of Health being run by RFK Junior, I'd expect to see the number of people opting to take vaccines will drop, resulting in a rise in preventable diseases among children.

We could possibly get mass resignations and paralysis in various government departments in protest at Trump's choice of people to lead those departments or at some of his policies. 

I could also foresee a situation where Trump has the military or national guard to forceable disband protests.

I also predict like last term his foreign policy will be an incoherent mess, full of flip fops that have a destabilizing affect on the world in general and we will be incredible lucky to get away without him triggering some sort of major world crisis.

Pompeo and Barr were excellent cabinet ministers who actually saved Trump from much worse trouble. Barr handled the impeachment stuff masterfully. But because after the election he upheld the law he is viewed as a traitor?

What childish nonsense. Both these men would enhance any cabinet.|

Reportedly Tump considered invading Venezuela back into 2017 but was talked out of by various people including Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.

Its also reported that Rex Tillerson was instrumental in the behind the scenes halting of a planed invasion of Qatar by Saudi Arabia and the UAE back in 2017-2018 a move that incensed both the leaders of the Saudis and the Emiratis who successfully lobbied Trump to fire Tillerson.
