Tucker's not strong enough for press secretary. I really would have preferred Shapiro...

He won't work Saturdays.

Rumor - Bongino to run Secret Service.
That sounds like fanfic. Why would Bongino leave being the heir apparent for Rush to take a government service role like that?
I could see him advising, but not leaving his budding media gig.

Trump isn’t big on making people divest of their money-making activities while holding office.
Remember the table full of blank paper?

Bongino has a top ten podcast, owns part of Rumble and has a nationally syndicated radio show.
He's not hurting...

Whoa...TuCa as PressSec.
I'd prefer TuCo, but TuCa would be a fun pick.

FYI I think the TuCa news is fake
I also enjoyed the "despite being a journalist he's a patriot" LOL

Wow. And not in a good way.
Tulsi Gabbard for DNI.

Gaetz seems like the worst pick so far. Let's see if he is confirmed. I think he has made lots of enemies.

Wait, does he have to give up his seat before the confirmation? This could be a brilliant opportunity.

This move would undermine the good choices that he has made and would build a solid wall of opposition to much of his Presidency. This is a singularly bad move and I will very much encourage the Senate to not confirm the nomination.

I don't think so.
This could be a brilliant opportunity.
Maybe it's 6D chess - have Gaetz fail confirmation, after throwing a bone to the crazy end of the GOP. They're satisfied, and he can say, "Look, I tried."

Wait, can someone on the terror watchlist (or whatever list she was on) get clearance, let alone be DNI?

I think Gabbard is a bit light for the job, but I can see going along with it.
Gaetz is a hard "No".

Yeah? Go check out the magats on X. They are ecstatic for Gaetz and are threatening Thune if he doesn’t rubber stamp Gaetz and are threatening any Republican Senators if they don’t vote for him.
The whole coalition falls on this point.

And there is no doubt that if Gaetz gets the post, Lawfare becomes de rigueur.

Some knotheads on X are not the whole party. They're not even a small portion of Trump's base.

Trump wants to know who voted for Scott and this is how he finds out.
