Ousted from the Trump cabinet in -61 days, that’s a record nobody will ever beat
This was likely done for 2 reasons.
- The ag position was used as leverage to walk off scott free from sex trafficking.
- To make his other picks look better. We will get Ken Paxton.
I mean, when the McConnell faction in the Senate is the only guard rail, you are pretty much fucked.
Oh absolutely, all these meme picks are setting up run of the mill reactionary fanatics to look “reasonable” as the replacements after the meme picks get borked.
You think he'll go to Paxton? I figured he'd just name another Senator - Hawley or Cruz - who can breeze through confirmation without issue.
Why not? He's got the background for the job, at the very least. He's a loyal little toadie, when push comes to shove. He's guaranteed to get confirmed, since Senators love waving each other through confirmation. And he's a vicious piece of shit who will be more than happy to feed Trump's appetite for revenge.
I agree he's dangerous. And there's a real chance he'll plant a knife in Trump's back at the first opportunity. But do you really think Rubio or Hegseth or Gaetz wouldn't do the same?
You forget that Ted Cruz' wife looks like a dog. You've got a dog wife ted!
Also he's a little weasel, nobody trusts him, I don't think he's gonna get anything
He's a loyal little toadie,
Toadie: yes, loyal: no. He's been on Trump's shit list since 2015. Too much weasly ambition. The other three are coked out frat boys, not Nixon wannabes.
It's more that literally everyone seems to hate Ted Cruz and would rather gouge out their eyes than work with him.
Depends on whether Trump can strong arm Congress to go on a long recess and just rubber stamp all of his picks through recess appointments.
The ethics report revealed that he wasn’t a big enough pedo for the job. They had to give the role to Jared Fogle.
Yeah they ousted that other guy for telling about them. I think he was a republican and a wheelchair user?
LMAO, in this day and age, for this ghoul to withdrawal had to have meant they have him dead to rights. Like, in 4k, holding up a USA Today, and his birth certificate while being a .pdf file and a lawyer/stenographer present with a notarized real time play by play. What in the actual fuck is in that report?!! God, it'd be amazing if it gets leaked.
My man was parading around sex picks on the House floor. His fucking Google Photos album was probably enough to do him in.
This is the first I'm hearing of this, that's incredibly arrogant behaviour even for a politician. Thinking you can get away with that.
Even with the consent of the women (who are of appropriateage), the sort of guy that does this is really gross
The FBI never destroyed the Epstein files, they found a new spot to store them
That fool resigned from Congress so he could be AG. For him to drop out of consideration after throwing away his career in Congress they must have some real shit on him.
My understanding is that he resigned in part to dodge the release of the ethics report. He thought he had the AG position locked in and knew that if he left Congress, they'd stop investigating him (since it was an internal rather than criminal proceeding). That just makes me think even more strongly that there must be some totally wild shit in that report.
Hopefully a dem will sack up and release what they've got. Not holding my breath on that tho
If any of it gets leaked, it will be from some staffer that will IMMEDIATELY be fired and blackballed, maybe even charged with some nonsense
Nobody in Congress really gains from it and many of them stand to lose everything if ethics inquiries start going public
The last time a congressperson tried to leak dirty laundry like that, they immediately busted out the gay underage incest kompromat like the next day lmao.
We are never finding out what was in that report.
"The Muller Report will get Trump this time bro just trust me bro we'll see results when Epstein gets investigated bro like bro the January 6th. Commission will find all of Trump's lackeys guilty you just gotta trust the process bro like the democrats are a serious institution bro and if we vote hard enough they'll stop fascism trust me bro and..."
--some libs talking to each other at brunch
Sooo... snap election? What's the GOP's margin again?
I don't know how it works in the house but if a senator leaves the governor picks their replacement.
It's completely up to the states. A lot of states have snap elections for Congress. Many states have the same for Senate, but the governor appoints an interim senator.
Why did she have to pay I thought only the customers had to pay on the island
Totally normal to give out $400 and $500 amounts to people on a regular basis. That definitely doesn't look suspicious.
lol, this makes Alex Jones' plan to obstruct the forced sale of InfoWars until Gaetz became AG null and void
It was Alex's plan to begin with, so I figured it wasn't exactly a good one either way
will probably appoint him to Rubio's seat in the Senate. That would be 
Critical Support for Trump's campaign to drain the swamp by complete accident.
What kind of excuse is "I didn't want anything to waste Daddy Trump's time"? Why didn't he just say "I believe there are other people more qualified than me". Instead of doing this embarrassing shit.
If you're gonna lie about why you're not taking the job at least don't lick your bosses boots while doing it
Because the amount that you've ingratiated yourself to Trump and deepthroated his ego are about to be the only currencies that matter in the US Government. I think a lot of these weirdos 100% believe that Trump is about to have dictatorial-level power for the indefinite future, so any extra effort to stroke him off now is going to pay unlimited dividends in the future. It's also a way of signaling total sycophantic loyalty to the rest of the collection of freaks in Trump's base.
It’s gotta be even worse than repeatedly having sex with a high schooler somehow
