Donald Trump rules out top jobs for Nikki Haley and Mike Pompeo

Trump's closest allies have warned him Haley and Pompeo would plot to undermine his 'America First' agenda.

Of COURSE they are going to try to sabotage "America First"!

It's EXPECTED!

But are they receiving foreign money for this and are they REGISTERED as a foreign agent (more cases of dual standards of "justice")just like Hunter Biden was allowed to avoid taxes, buy and use drugs,buy and use hookers and even illegal human trafficking, and didn't have to register as a foreign agent even though he was selling out the US (at least) starting back when 'ol Joe was a senator

This is good but it's a shame that Trump has to be told this vs it being obvious at this point

Trump's speech could have been researched and written by a very good civil rights attorney or Constitutional Law scholar. It addresses, directly and in plain language, THE single greatest threat to this country that we have faced in the last century. As an attorney with some experience in these matters, I give it an A+. Ever since Donald Trump won the election, I've felt a lot better about the future of the country.

Matt Taibbi just floated a Note that the GEC will be shutting down December 23rd. Kate Starbird - you're next.

We just have to make sure they don't pop up under a different name.

Wow oh wow, am I glad DJT won this election!

Can you IMAGINE what Trump. Elon, and every other American would have to eventually go through if Harris was in office another four years?

They done enough damage already. Its going to take the next 4 years to clean up SOME of the mess. And some of "the mess" CANT BE FIXED. Like the people beaten to death on Jan 6, and the Jan 6 people who are no longer with us due to suicide.

I want criminal charges against ALL OF THOSE WHO SET UP THE JANUARY 6 OPERATION!

Wray

Garland

Pelosi

and others....

When and where was this speech? I just heard it this morning on some radio program. It’s magnificent, and the most hopeful and best outlined plan of any I’ve heard Trump deliver, and the most essential. Everything else flows from this. I can tell my TruBlu neighbors, “you still have the right to complain.” Which they would not allow me, as a nonpartisan, during the past decade; they were all mis, dis, mal information, Putin puppet, deep and cheap fakes, trust the experts, just like good little Stasi.

Holy Fuuuuuuuu.... Trump knocked it out of the park here. The country is lucky he's been returned to power. I challenge any freedom and liberty loving American to argue against his diagnosis of the problem here and plans to fix it.

Don't want to protect the first amendment as a sacred and God-given right? Europe and Canada await you.

This is HUGE and sooo needed!! It gives me hope that we really are going to be able to dig our way out of this mess. I never understood how this horrible quagmire of censorship happened to us in the first place! It's so UNAmerican!

That's beautiful.

...but a root cause of the propaganda that has been force fed to the citizenry has been the consolidation of most former journalism outlets into a few corporations and the collusion of those corporations to establish and broadcast narratives contrary to reality and for the promotion of specific political entities. Existing antitrust laws must be put into effect and enforced to break up these corporations and collaborations in order to re-enable the genuine journalism under the First Amendment that's necessary for a well-informed citizenry needed for a democratic republic.

It's terrific, and Elon also promoted this video, so it's great to know that's what he's thinking too. The thing most people don't realize is that X actually doesn't fit into this thing Trump's describing at all, at least not without major changes to how it works. https://censorshiponx.substack.com/p/elon-says-yes-x-says-no

That was fast.

But that's good, to get the message established quickly that it's time for new blood, not old hangers-on.

Now, there are exceptions to all rules. Ric Grenell comes to mind. But anyone with a whiff of neocon must be purged.

Others I hope aren't tapped, like Tom Massie (who lost his wife in June, but seems to have been re-invigorated somehow). He needs to lead the charge to reduce spending, the no.2 issue after free speech and ending the woke Statist narrative.

Dang, M. Sim.

You sure are good at rousing the troops!

Timothy Andrew Staples/pop122's avatar

It's what all excellent journalists do.

(Forgot to add this before. One would think I might improve with practice...)

Timothy Andrew Staples/pop122's avatar

Naturally, apparently. ;-)

An underlying frame is provided by the GOP's 2024 platform, at https://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/documents/2024-republican-party-platform

The relevant part says: "We will ban the Federal Government from colluding with anyone to censor Lawful Speech, defund institutions engaged in censorship, and hold accountable all bureaucrats involved with illegal censoring. We will protect Free Speech online."
