Trump Says Dems ‘Will Try All Sorts
Of Tricks’ To Delay Cabinet Confirmations

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 12/31/2024 2:51:28 PM

President-elect Donald Trump warned on Tuesday that Senate Democrats will “improperly” attempt to delay the cabinet confirmation process and implored Republicans to stand up to the opposition party’s “tricks.” With Republicans taking control of the Senate by a six-seat majority in January, Democrats will be handicapped in any effort to tank a Trump cabinet nominee unless some Republicans join them. Multiple cabinet picks — including Defense Secretary nominee Pete Hegseth, Health and Human Services Secretary nominee Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and Director of National Intelligence nominee Tulsi Gabbard — could face fierce pushback during their confirmation hearings. The first hearings are scheduled to begin next week.

He's right, again. This is part of what the Dems say they aren't as damaged from the last election because they have enough votes to resist helping the country return to a positive path. It's why people like Massie and Roy need to stop being so foolish and work to get the team in place first before they think they'll get some fantasy done with only a few spare votes.

The Dems and their media have conditioned many people to believe stopping Trump is their only hope to save the universe. Some would rather the world be annihilated than to face another Trump presidency. Like even Hitler and Lucifer would kill themselves to avoid such a fate.

Expect the demonrat socialist Marxists to attempt to "Kavanaugh" ALL of Trump nominees-- if they can pick off Hegseth, they will claim victory and attempt to create a wave to take down the other nominees! Remember back in 2014 when the VA claimed to have helped Vets treatment when all they did was to schedule APPOINTMENTS while many died because of the long wait list for treatment? Hegseth spurred action so that Vets could go ANYWHERE near their homes for treatment and President Trump made it happen! That is just one of the worthy causes that goes unheralded in the media.

President-elect Donald Trump is forcing the Democratic politicians who spent years lying about President Biden’s senility to take their bitter medicine, but we’re more concerned about the toady media who played along. Trump on Monday posted a video showing clip after cringe-worthy clip of Democratic leaders from Rep. Nancy Pelosi to Homeland Security chief Alejandro Mayorkas denying again and again that Biden was mentally and physically deteriorating, claiming he was “sharp,” “on his game,” “focused” and that “his age is an asset.” Every last one deserves scorn, but so do the journalists who not only let these fantastical fibs go unchallenged, but even parroted the lies: Biden was showing no signs

This is truly chilling, especially in the wake of today’s terror attacks in New Orleans and Las Vegas. A former CIA officer named Sarah Adams was interviewed on the Shawn Ryan podcast just two weeks ago, and warned that there are more than a thousand al-Qaeda sleepers in the United States right now who are planning major attacks on the homeland. She clearly implicates Biden’s open southern border as the entry point for these potential terrorists and suggests that they have developed new tactics and bombs that can evade detection through traditional means.

Heartbroken family and friends moved to identify the growing number of victims after a terrorist suspect plowed a car into a large crowd in New Orleans on New Year's. The suspect, Shamsud-Din Jabbar, was "hell-bent on creating the carnage and damage that he did," New Orleans police chief Anne Kirkpatrick said. "It was very intentional behavior," the superintendent of police said. "This man was trying to run over as many people as he possibly could." At least 15 people were killed in the Wednesday morning suspected terrorist attack, and dozens others injured, the FBI said.

She had made history here, as the first openly transgender state senator in the country. Now she was making history again, recently elected as the first openly transgender member of Congress. Her political promotion has come during a reckoning for transgender rights, when legislation in Republican-governed states around the country aims to curb their advance. During an election where a deluge of campaign ads and politicians demeaned trans people, McBride still easily won her blue state’s only seat in the U.S. House of Representatives.

RENO, Nev. — President Joe Biden’s administration said Monday it is taking steps to bar oil, gas and geothermal development for 20 years in northeastern Nevada’s Ruby Mountains. The administration said it has submitted an application to withdraw about 264,000 acres (107,000 hectares) of federal lands in the area from such leasing. That starts a 90-day public comment period on the 20-year prohibition and prevents oil, gas and geothermal development for two years during the process. (Snip) The move came three weeks before the inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump, who has vowed to ramp up oil and gas production and
