Trump Source Tells CNN Gaetz Picked Because He Will 'Burn Justice Department Down From The Inside'

Trump Source Tells CNN Gaetz Picked Because He Will 'Burn Justice Department Down From The Inside'

A Trump source told CNN’s Mark Preston that President-elect Donald Trump picked former Congressman Matt Gaetz (R-FL) to be attorney general because he will “burn the DOJ (Department of Justice) down from the inside.”

The selection of Matt Gaetz to be Trump’s attorney general was met with near-universal shock Wednesday for many reasons, not the least of which is the cloud of scandal that saw Gaetz resign just in time to head off the publication of a House Ethics Committee report.

Trump’s cabinet picks feel like the casting list for the final season of America.

Matt Gaetz practiced law for two years at a private law firm. That is the extent of his legal career. He has been under legal investigation almost 10xs longer than he’s practiced law. This is not only a disgrace to all Americans, but the legal profession. - Julius Kim

Gaetz is a literal pedophile and the GOP loves it.

They are the Epstein party. - Adam Kinzinger

Ooh la la, j'adore Paris!

The Paris prosecutor on Wednesday requested a five-year prison sentence and a five-year ban from public office against far-right leader Marine Le Pen, at a trial where she and 24 others are accused of embezzling European Union funds.

The trial, which comes almost a decade after initial investigations started, threatens to undermine her party’s efforts to polish its image ahead of a 2027 presidential vote many believe she can win.

Vive La France! I hope you're better at this than the United States! - Geoff

France is my favorite

Trump and Matt Gaetz are proof that totally different types of rapists can still work together.

And the Senate doesn't get to consent. - John Fugelsang

CNN Ratings Keep Dropping The Farther Right They Turn. You'd Think They'd Learn.
CNN analyst and potential Trump spox Scott Jennings drew protests from colleagues when he held up a newspaper photo of President-elect Donald Trump and President Joe Biden at the White House and sarcastically gloated, “Did you ever think you’d see literal Hitler in the Oval Office!”

We Might As Well Hand The Keys To Putin

Michael Anton and Sebastian Gorka are in the running to be President-elect Donald Trump’s deputy national security adviser, according to three people familiar with the competition who were granted anonymity to speak candidly.

With either selection Trump would elevate a firebrand loyalist who served in the incoming commander-in-chief’s first administration to one of the White House’s top roles.

Trump's Pick For Pentagon Chief Claimed He Left The Military After Being 'Deemed' An 'Extremist' By Members of His Unit

Trump's Pick For Pentagon Chief Claimed He Left The Military After Being 'Deemed' An 'Extremist' By Members of His Unit

...In the June 2024 book, Hegseth explains how he and the military finally parted ways in 2021. “And, in 2021, I was deemed an “extremist” by that very same Army. Yes, you read that right. Twenty years . . . and the military I loved, I fought for, I revered…spit me out,” Hegseth wrote.

Pete Hegseth 5 days ago: "I'm straight up just saying we should not have women in combat roles."

Donald Trump wants to use our military, right here on our own soil, to round up and deport millions of people.

Boris Johnson Can Be Very Astute At Times

Okay yes a second Trump presidency is terrifying but based on these Trump picks, I think there's a decent chance that stupidity gets in the way of the fascism. I think that's our hope: crippling idiocy. - April Ajoy

Republican Shenanigans

When I was growing up during the Cold War, Republicans used to scare us with stories about communist Russia and how people would be forcibly ripped from their homes and taken away. Years later, Republicans are celebrating that they can now do the same thing with immigrants. - Dave Matt

Well, Better Than Rick Scott, I Guess

Senator John Thune (R-SD) won the GOP Senate leadership race after defeating MAGA-world favorite Senator Rick Scott (R-FL) in the first round of voting and Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) in the second on Wednesday.

Dear mainstream media: Stop acting like Trump won in a landslide. As late ballots are counted, two facts have emerged: Trump won by only about 1 percent, and he failed to get over 50 percent of the popular vote. It’s shaping up to be the closest election since Bush v Gore in 2000, and when you report otherwise, it just makes more of us cancel our subscriptions or change the channel. - Andy Borowitz
