Hats off to Trump for demonstrating that he is a quick learner and knows what’s needed this time around to get his agenda through. The only real question I have is whether the senators can elect Scott instead of Thune, who would be a RINO disaster. If Scott gets the majority leader position, it will be all systems go.

As I have said many times, Trump made several bad personnel choices in his first term. He’s learned and is assembling a terrific cabinet. Homan has put the fear of the lord in all the illegals and their Dem supporters.

I literally yelled out loud when he nominated Pete Hegseth for Secretary of Defense. It was a total shock but an outstanding choice. When you couple that with Trump putting Musk and Ramaswamy in charge of the Department of government efficiency, you have an opportunity to build up our defense without increasing the budget. As I have said many times, you could fire 50% of the people in the Pentagon and not lose anything. When you carry that out throughout DOD, there are billions of dollars available to beef up our actual defense. Government contracts could also be greatly reduced. These two guys can do it and Hegseth will support it.

Mike Huckabee is a great choice for ambassador to Israel. God knows we’ve all seen enough commercials for the IFCJ to know his bona fides.

I have a little concern with his appointment on Rubio for State because he’s been a throw money at Ukraine advocate, but I think he will follow his orders from Trump. And he is a smart guy.

All of his appointments have been people who actually are qualified for their appointments, as opposed to Magoo basing everything on DEI idiots who couldn’t even spell the name of their departments much less know anything about what they actually do. They were focused on woke bs and not their actual jobs.

There are still several important nominations to go and one I am particularly interested in is the Attorney General. Hegseth’s appointment gives me hope that my nominee Pam Bondi will get the nod. She’s qualified and is a big Trump supporter and will clean house at DOJ.

Yesterday I came across an article discussing the best charities to donate to support veterans and I’m sure it will come as no shock to you that Tunnels to Tower was up at the top, but the thing that surprised me because it discussed charities that were not good to donate to because of their high overhead. And the one that surprised me the most was the Purple Heart Foundation which was touted here as a good place for donations to help western North Carolina after the hurricane. It turns out that 94% of their donations go to overhead. It surprised me because I always thought they were legit. Just goes to show that you need to check out any charities you donate to actually get your money to where you want it to go.

Apparently he developed an app that allowed him to call the election four hours before anyone else. Enjoy.

Just for shits and giggles let me talk about the 4B movement. In case you don’t know what this is, it’s a group of women who are cutting off their hair and shaving their heads and refusing to have sex with men for the next four years because Trump won. I guess it’s the modern day version of Lysistrata. The only problem is that if you have watched any of the montages is that men haven’t had sex with them ever. One woman was so obese that I don’t think anyone has ever had sex with her. Big loss. But what really tickles me is that they all say, I haven’t had sex with men for the last four years and I’m not going to have sex with them for the next four years. Okay lesbians aren’t going to do something they were never going to do anyway. No loss.

Trump today announced on truth social that Nikki Haley and Mike Pompeo will not be part of his administration and that is great news and demonstrates that he has learned from mistakes in his first term.

Now I have being saying forever that Nikki is much closer to a RINO than a MAGA devotee. She’s out for herself only and only endorsed Trump at the very end to try to remain relevant even though he did not allow her to campaign with him. She’s a phony and good on Trump.

Pompeo is a different matter. He’s been considered a potential candidate for Secretary of State and has been a favorite on Fox. However I recently saw a couple of articles exposing him as a supporter of the J6 nonsense and another where he made a comment that we need to move past celebrities on the right and get back to serious politicians. Martha McCallum pushed him on it saying you’re referring to Trump and he dodged the obvious. After seeing that I was seriously concerned that Trump might make this mistake again and proving once again that he’s learned from his employment mistakes in his first term, and we can look forward to an administration that is all on the same page. AMEN!

And I’m sure that I have mentioned this before but the nonsense about giving students a day off and cookies and milk because Trump won, is just that. Back in my day when the Kent State shooting happened, and I think that was reprehensible, all the colleges on campus canceled classes except Engineering and Business. We went to class.

Gutfeld has mentioned it twice today and I can confirm it. Basically it means that you believe the msm bullshit until you read an article that involves something that you actually know about or in my case were actually involved in and realize that you can’t believe anything they say because you know what they said about what you know is total bs. And then you question everything else they say. I was personally involved in several stories that appeared in the WAPO and in every case they printed stuff that was totally wrong.

And now continuing the Sotomayor rant, can you imagine SK answering a constitutional law question by saying, “I come from a middle class family and can imagine what can be without regard to what has been”? Just a chuckle for me.

They need to double the protection for Trump up to and after the inauguration. I’m sure that you saw today that another Iranian assassination team was thwarted. I am very concerned that he is in grave danger and needs to avoid any public venues until after that. I’m not sure what would happen if they succeed because while the constitution says the VP becomes the P, there is nothing that I know of that says what happens in the transition period. I would think that JD would become the president elect but you can be certain that the left will litigate the hell out of it. I think we need to change Inauguration Day to at most a month after the election. In most countries it happens almost immediately.

Apparently on next Wednesday the Republican senators will vote for the next Majority Leader. I’m not sure how they can do this since the next senate will have different senators than the present one. And we may still not know a couple of them. I guess they can get the senators elect on a call.

But putting that aside, at present there are three senators running for the position. Rick Scott, John Thune and John Cornyn. The latter two who think they are the heir apparent to cocaine Mitch would be terrible. They are just continuations of McConnell and would be a drag on Trump. Remember that the last time Trump got elected McConnell and Paul Ryan as Speaker sabotaged much of his agenda. These two are poster children for the now rejected old Republican Party.

Scott is full in on the Trump agenda and he is a close friend of Trump’s. I saw three things that made me wonder how this will turn out. First, Thune warned Trump to stay out of it. Second, it appears that if Trump endorsed one of them, it would seal the deal and last there is one report that says Trump said he wouldn’t endorse Scott wasn’t a serious person. I don’t believe the last point because Trump will face roadblocks with the other two.

I’m sure you have seen Dems calling for her to step down quickly so hopefully Magoo and Schumer can ram through a replacement in the waning days of his administration. Fortunately I don’t think there is time left for this to happen. With Thanksgiving and Christmas coming up there isn’t a real chance that this could happen. There would have to be the required background checks and then the opportunity for senators to meet with the nominee and interview her. And it assumes that if Schumer could completely ignore established process, that Sinema and Manchin would go along. Sotomayor is an 70 year old lifelong diabetic who has had episodes requiring medical intervention while on the court and I believe that she has made the same mistake as RBG and will allow Trump to appoint another constitutional conservative to the court.

Now for a real funny. I saw one idiot who thinks she should step down and Magoo should nominate SK because it would drive republicans crazy and she has the requisite legal gravitas for the job. As you well know, she’s a moron and has absolutely zero legal gravitas. Can you imagine her being questioned by the senate judiciary committee about the law? She couldn’t answer even basic questions and I don’t think she would allow her idiocy to be so publicly exposed. I also don’t think Magoo and Jill would ever give her the chance.
