Trump's choice for FBI director Kash Patel: "We're going to come after the people in the media who lied about American citizens who helped Joe Biden rig presidential elections. We're going to come after you."
"Kash Patel Has Plan to Remake the F.B.I. Into a Tool of Trump
President-elect Donald Trump’s pick to lead the F.B.I. has called for firing the agency’s top officials, shutting down its Washington headquarters and prosecuting journalists."
(NOTE: This is what dictators/authoritarians do as soon as they're in power.)
Trump's choice for Ambassador to France:
Mr. Kushner, 70, pleaded guilty in 2004 to 16 counts of tax evasion, a single count of retaliating against a federal witness and one of lying to the Federal Election Commission in a case that became a lasting source of embarrassment for the family. As part of the plea, Mr. Kushner admitted to hiring a prostitute to seduce his brother-in-law, a witness in a federal campaign finance investigation, and sending a videotape of the encounter to his sister.
Kushner admitted that he paid a private investigator $25,000 to arrange for the seduction and videotaping of the cooperating witness' husband. Kushner admitted to personally recruiting the prostitute and instructing that the videotape be mailed to the cooperating witnesses.
Chris Christie told @MargaretHoover that Charles Kushner's criminal case was "one of the most loathsome, disgusting crimes" he had handled.

Trump's choice for Defense Secretary, Pete Hegseth:
28 comments:
At least they won't be hypocrites like the Democrats and all their crime families... ala Pelosi.
"CBS News reports that Pete Hegseth, Donald Trump’s nominee for defense secretary, was forced to step down from two nonprofit veterans groups after staffers accused him of financial and sexual misconduct, and repeated intoxication."
Trump chooses a sexual assaulter and drunk to lead the Defense Department!
Trump's draining the swamp into a cesspool of people like him.
You Know Who IS the swamp. Err, cesspool.
If you look at the big Trump picture, Hegseth is the perfect cabinet stooge for Trump. So was Gaetz. So is his FBI pick. A big part of Trump's base is misogynists. Ironically many of them are also women. The rest of his voters don't care. So it's good politics for Trump to have woman haters in his administration. Sadly my party is saddled with misguided fools like Joe Manchen who believe sucking up to the right is a good thing. Bipartisanship only matters if there are goodies to be had in an infrastructure bill or some meaningless stuff like a national farmers day. To nominate a cabinet member that is smart and focused on the good is not a good plan for Trump. Rapists, or sexual abusers if that term would make my good friend Skudrunner happy, and tax cheats is the only way for Trump to go if he wants to keep his hold over the republicans. Vance may have been his best pick since JD is an expert at sucking Trump's bottom and evading answers. Plus he abhors the idea of women being treated as equals. As an old low level political operative, I have great admiration for Trump's ability to control the minds of millions of deluded fools.
Can't make this stuff up. An absolute disgrace.
Making accusations without evidence is just nonsense .
Nancy Pelosi has never been indicted for any crime, unlike Donald Trump, the Felon-elect, sexual assaulter/rapist, tax fraudster, fake Trump University scammer!
Joe Biden has NEVER been indicted for any crime. Unlike Trump and his family relatives!
It's a difficult thing to come to terms with.
You support a convicted criminal and every dirty deed he's done.
Resident Joe Con keeps showing us how an authoritarian personality with no conscience has no interest in truth, and will defend his fellow sociopaths and criminals as long as they target the same people they both hate.
Watch for him to cheer the Trump Cartel's coming witchhunts, harassment, threats, and purging of everyone not loyal to his felonious Fuhrer.
But, he is America's disgrace. Not that there hasn't been others in history. But, You Know Who is so goddamn disgraceful he makes anyone else look like a saint by comparison.
I, unlike JoMala have no respect for You Know Who's ability to manipulate the minds of ignorant sheeple.
To give up ones agency to the likes of You Know Who is the greatest sin one can commit against oneself.
So Ukraine Joe and Insider trader Nancy were never convicted of anything and neither was Hillary. Who else could get away with destroying emails that were subpoenaed by the FBI and conducting government business on an illegal private server?
Just because you haven't been convicted of a crime,it doesn't mean you didn't commit one
I'm replying to your comment, even though you don't deserve a reply. Why? Because whenever you appear here with a comment and I counter your claim, you disappear, never to come back and acknowledge my rebuttal. Rude!
Neither Secy. of State, Hillary Clinton, nor former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, nor President Biden have ever been indicted for any crime. Trump had the DoJ, House, and Senate for the first 2 years of his presidency and did not find it necessary to call for investigations, again, into Clinton or into anything about Pelosi, and his failed House Committee inquiries on President Biden came up with ZERO findings of wrong doing. Those are facts you MAGA cannot deal with. Facts are stubborn things that MAGA don't believe in -- maybe because they can't comprehend them?
Your hero, Trump, actually WAS convicted by a jury of his peers of 34 felony crimes, yet people like you think Trump, a convicted criminal and sexual assaulter, is a perfect example of the best in America!
You can believe all you want in fantasy crimes committed by anyone you like, it doesn't matter to the law or the people you hate. Those fantasies are meaningless in jurisprudence.
However, Trump's criminal record is real. Trump is a real convicted felon and sexual assaulter/rapist who partied with the infamous child rapists, Epstein and Maxwell for years and years. Those are facts.
You can have your own opinions, but not your own facts.
Also, you might try living in the real world where decency, honor, and the rule of law mean something. Your hero, Trump, doesn't believe in those American ideals, and we will all pay the ultimate price for his indecency and villainy .
At Lisa is here and not out molesting a young boy. If she were to do such a despicable thing though she'd probably be offered a cabinet position from her dear leader.
Technically Shaw, the Trump jury was not a jury of "his peers". Trump is without peer when it comes to business, tax and non profit fraud. He's in a class of his own. As he is when it comes to bu**sh*t, lying, exaggeration and marital infidelity, excepting maybe Bill Clinton and a few of the Kennedys on the infidelity scale.
The man stands alone.
To be fair, many, many of our presidents were unfaithful. Some more notorious than others. But up until JFK's presidency, there was some sort of "gentlemen's agreement" not to publish presidents' marital indiscretions.
I guess one would have to say that some men just can't control their, ahem, urges?
14 Presidents Who Allegedly Cheated on The First Lady
An unethical and immoral felon standing proudly on his unmatched record for disgusting behaviors.
And his fawning sheeple like skud amd Lisa continue to be mesmerized by his egregious lying and criminality.
40% of America fully supports the jerk and plenty more are indifferent and voted for him because they like the thought of strongman dictator.
America is sliding and sliding fast.
Lisa: "Just because you haven't been convicted of a crime, it doesn't mean you didn't commit one."
I agree.
These felony Convictions stand:
34 felony counts in Trump’s falsifying business records in the first degree.
Invoices for legal services - Guilty on 11 of 11 charges
Checks paid for legal services - Guilty on 11 of 11 charges
Ledger entries for legal expenses - Guilty on 12 of 12 charges
Crimes like these come to mind:
=
2020 Election Interference Charges
Count 1: 18 U.S.C. § 371 (Conspiracy to Defraud the United States)
Count 2: 18 U.S. C. § 1512(k) (Conspiracy to Obstruct an Official Proceeding)
Count 3: 18 U.S.C. §§ 1512(c)(2), 2 (Obstruction of and Attempt to Obstruct an Official Proceeding)

Perhaps Lisa would be so kind as to debunk the vast troves of sworn testimony, audio, visual, and printed EVIDENCE that ALL indicate Trump is GUILTY.
trump is making these cabinet nominations in a way that says he's not taking it seriously at all, almost like he's just picking names out of a hat.
Regardless of party affiliation, we should be VERY concerned that he's appointing unqualified idiots in almost every area.
I don't know why I bother answering Lisa's comments. She never comes back to see any rebuttals to her claims. It's probably an attention span problem. She and her WYD trolls can't hold a thought long enough to respond.
So trump was convicted of 34 counts of bookkeeping errors and you are up in arms while the presidents son is convicted of a gun violation and evading taxes and you are fine with his pardon.
How about him giving a billion dollars to Africa while people in Asheville are still waiting for help.
Lisa is right that just because they haven't convicted hillary, botox nan or the biden crime family doesn't mean they are innocent. The left is against all the selections for cabinet positions because they have experience while they support mayor pete who never did anything except direct a salt truck.
You do put alot of effort in responding to these jokers Shaw. They rarely acknowledge me but I figure it just hurts their sensitive feelings when I just call them "shitheads" as that's all their comments merit.
Regarding the gun charge vis-a-vis Hunter Biden, here's something you probably don't know:
From a lawyer: “Without aggravating factors like use in a crime, multiple purchases, or buying a weapon as a straw purchaser, people are almost never brought to trial on felony charges solely for how they filled out a gun form.
As for the taxes he failed to pay, H. Biden repaid them in full, including penalty charges. The IRS almost never charges anyone after full payment."
"...while people in Asheville are still waiting for help." There you go again, making claims backed up by zero evidence. Just more trash talking and nothing more.
SKUD: "Lisa is right that just because they haven't convicted hillary, botox nan or the biden crime family doesn't mean they are innocent."
Yes. It. Does.
You're the first one to proclaim, "Innocent until proven guilty!" But not when it comes to Democrats you dislike, eh? That's hypocrisy on steroids, skud.
Let's turn this around on you: "Just because skudrunner hasn't been convicted doesn't mean he's innocent of committing crimes!" So we have to assume you, skud, are a cheat and criminal because you haven't be convicted of crimes! See how insane Lisa's and your statements are?
To the best of our knowledge, Secretary Buttigieg has not been charged with sexual assault, drunkenness, and having sex with minor females and believing in QAnon garbage. Those are just some of what Trump has nominated for various cabinet positions, and it is sleazy to the nth degree. Just like him!
Trump nominated a guy for secretary of defense whose own mother accused him of being a wife beater! skud is defending the indefensible. Ignore his nonsense.
Skud's right... again!
Just because someone has not been charged or convicted does not mean they are innocent. Just like just because Skud has never been found to have beat his wife does not mean he is innocent of the charge.
Also Skud... regarding Lisa. Are you really rallying to her defense? When asked on her blog where she got her facts, she once replied that she posted a mix of both true and "false facts".
She's the queen of the alternative universe so many in MAGA land choose to inhabit.
And yet there you are.
My good friend Skuds has always parroted nonsense he gleaned from the republican message people well. Some of it he may have come up with himself. It's a shame to waste his talents here where he is subject to ridicule and Shaw's relentless use of facts. I suggest Skuds, that you beat you wife or better yet, a puppy. Then Fox News would hire you, or Trump give you a cabinet position so you could at least get paid for your efforts.
@JoMala - ... as that is all their comments merit.
Ayup, a big second from this arc of the universe!
GOP Senate is insisting on FBI backgrounds on the nominees. Been the norm for years. Trump apparently gave in on the issue. Probably a few might pass.
The rest belong in a police line up.
My Prediction, Hegseth doesn't make it to the confirmation process.....if there even is one.
Hunter intentionally lied on the application and his oh here is the money back from the taxes I didn't pay is not a great excuse. This is almost as lame as joey giving his son a pardon because "trump" would take it out on poor hunter when he was suppose to be sentenced this month while daddy was the pres. That just doesn't hold water. The left is irate because they really screwed up spending a billions dollars to lose because they picked the wrong candidate. The reason they picked her is because she checked two boxes not because she was capable or well liked. Now you say I beat my wife which you cant' prove so has to go into the fake news category. Don't own a puppy but I did have a gold fish one time and flushed him when he died so maybe you can use that.
Your right Ms. Shaw, I got the information on Ashville from that liberal national news network ABC nightly news.
Skud: "Hunter LIED, but with Trump it was only "bookkeeping errors".
"Oops! didn't mean it, and besides I never had sex with her", amirite, Skud?
Like any MAGA cultist, Skud IGNORES the LONG list of crimes Trump committed. Skud also IGNORES Trump's pardoning of his criminal cronies.
"The reason they picked her (Kamala) is because she checked two boxes not because she was capable or well liked."
She was both liked and capable, but Skud agrees with the racists who called her a "DEI" candidate.
More evidence Skud voted for Trump.
He truly BELEIVES Trump and ALL his sycophantic media propagandists.
Isn't it cute how Skud thinks Trump won't seek "vengeance and retribution" despite having promised to do so?
