Not thrilled about Marco Rubio. But maybe it will work out fine?
I like a lot of them, including the border czar, Tulsi Gabbard, Musk/Ramaswamy's DOGE, etc.

I would see what Joel Skousen says in his next 4 briefs about who is good and who is a Gad. So far Joel has never been wrong when he calls Trump’s picks deep state.

Who did Skousen call out as Gads the first time around with Trump?

I seriously don't know what to think of his picks for his administration.... just makes my doubts grow. 🤷‍♀️

Apparently Lara Trump is offered to take Ribio's place -in the Senate 🤔 🙄

I like the new 'Border Czar' - the rest I could do without, esp. Gabbard, Rubio, Huckabee, Musk, Noem, Stefanik, and his Pfizer-loving new Chief of Staff, Wiles - don't think any of them will put America and its taxpayers/citizens first.

I like Massie, so if there has to be a USDA, then he's a good pick for that, IMO -

Full article here - https://www.newstarget.com/2024-11-11-m ... ve-ag.html

Thomas Massie and Joel Salatin to reportedly help run USDA, will advise on regenerative agriculture – decentralizing farms across the U.S.
By Lance D Johnson // Nov 11, 2024

In an unexpected and bold move, the Trump transition team has decided to offer Joel Salatin -- owner of PolyFace Farm and advocate for regenerative agriculture -- a prominent advisory role within the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). Salatin, a staunch critic of industrial agriculture and a champion for sustainable, organic farming practices, has accepted a position as one of the six “Advisors to the Secretary” within the USDA, where he will work alongside Thomas Massie, the libertarian-leaning congressman from Kentucky who has agreed to serve as Secretary of Agriculture.

The Salatin-Massie partnership: A threat to Big Ag and Big Pharma
Salatin’s new role is part of a broader ideological shift within the Trump transition team, which, in addition to agricultural reform, is contemplating sweeping changes across multiple government departments. In his announcement, Salatin discussed his vision for a government that drastically reduces its influence on key sectors like education, food, energy, and military involvement abroad.

Only one I am pretty negative on is Rubio. My understanding is Trump had a VERY short list to choose from due to few people having the required security clearance, and it will take months to get someone else those clearances.

Biggest beef I have with Rubio is he leans heavily war hawk.

That said, last time around Trump picked John Bolton and fired him.

Neither, he is for the 2 state solution, which will be bad for everyone. That will probably trigger the New Madrid fault line to divide the United States at the Mississippi River.

Edit: But the Jews will likely get to construct their third temple by agreeing to it. Netanyahu is against the 2-state solution right now, but Trump's Abraham Accords will likely be tweaked so the Jews will have permission to build on the Temple Mount, he might change his mind. The red heifers are why the Oct 7th attack happened according to the Muslims, they called it "Al-Aqsa Flood" because of the "red cows."

Ariel Sharon went into a 7+year coma for giving Gaza over to the Palestinians and bulldozing the Israeli settlements in 2004. GW Bush was for it too, then Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans on the "West Bank," roughly displacing citizen for citizen.

outstanding picks, IMO.

Gaetz was one of the only folks in DC questioning the vax. and the ukraine war. and the laptop. and everything else. but Gaetz was under investigation for years for "sexual misconduct" and the house ethics committee was going to release a report this Friday to further damage him, but since he resigned, they can't do that.

Is it another case of them accusing him of doing what they themselves are doing? Maybe he should investigate THEM as AG.... lol.

John Bolton’s disapproval is a sure sign of a good pick

I tried to like this twice, but I kept getting this error:

"AJAX error
Something went wrong when processing your request."

So what did you do wrong?? ;)
