As tensions remain high between President-elect Donald Trump and the intelligence community over Russian election interference, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said Sunday that Mr. Trump shouldn’t have a good relationship with the U.S. intelligence agencies right now. “I don’t think there should be a good relationship right now,” Gingrich told CBS’ “Face the Nation.”. “The very top people who are political appointees I think absolutely betrayed and undermined the intelligence community. I think they acted in ways that are totally inappropriate.” Gingrich was responding to questions about how Mr. Trump will be able to work with intelligence agencies after...

In a SPIEGEL interview, conservative intellectual leader and Trump confidant Newt Gingrich discusses the president-elect's future political course, how he is "very cautious" when it comes to nuclear weapons and the threat of trade wars. SPIEGEL: Mr. Gingrich, what can we expect during the first 100 days of the Trump presidency? Gingrich: You can expect a great deal of action. Donald Trump is a very action-oriented person. I think in the first few weeks, you're going to see a lot of executive orders repealed, peeling back the Obama legacy. You're going to see steps moving forward across a broad range...

When asked by ABC News what he feared the most about the incoming Trump administration, former Republican House Speaker Newt Gingrich said it was that “they would lose their nerve.” […] “Look, they’re going to arrive in Washington, and for them to be successful, they have to stake out positions that Donna [Brazile] will not like and the Left will hate,” Gingrich explained. “And my deepest concern is they’re going to arrive and you’re going to have the Greens going crazy over the EPA [Environmental Protection Agency] and Interior [Department]. You’re going to have the government employees going crazy about...

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich praised the style and substance of Donald Trump’s suggestion for a new nuclear arms race, calling the president-elect’s use of Twitter to make major policy pronouncements “brilliant.” Gingrich, an informal Trump adviser, told “Fox News Sunday” host Chris Wallace that the longstanding U.S. policy of reducing the number of its nuclear weapons has “failed.” He claimed that it has enabled former Cold War foes China, North Korea and Russia to rebuild or expand their capacities. “There are a number of steps [Russia is] taking to be a war-fighting capability,” Gingrich said. “We have to, candidly,...

The Democrats have been clutching onto Obama’s “legacy” like a lifeboat– that has a hole in it. Newt Gingrich is here to rip off the Band-Aid, saying, "It’s going to be like a balloon that deflates, the Obama legacy is going to be like this… down to a quarter or fifteen per cent of what he did." Video Most of Obama’s "legacy" that was mostly made up of disappointments, will be erased by Donald Trump within the first year of his Presidency. And while this may make a lot of liberal's cry, it’s nothing less than what Obama deserves. Because...

Yesterday, I posted an article with quotes from an interview done by Newt Gingrich. This is from the excerpt posted yesterday: Former Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) said in a new interview that Donald Trump has taken a different tone as president-elect and may be leaving behind his campaign promise to “drain the swamp.” Gingrich told NPR's "Morning Edition" that he was told Trump “now says [the phrase] was cute, but he doesn’t want to use it anymore.” Gingrich, who has been a close adviser to Trump, said he likes "drain the swamp" because it “vividly illustrates the problem, because all...

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich predicted that most of President Obama's policies, and thus his legacy, will disappear within the next 12 months under the Trump administration. "What you're watching is a man who realizes all of a sudden 90 percent of his legacy is going to disappear, because he didn't do the hard work of passing legislation," Gingrich said on Fox News. {.. snip..}

There were two notable Trumpworld headlines Wednesday morning. One was the news that Corey Lewandowski — Donald Trump's former campaign manager who remained part of his inner circle long after leaving that job — had just opened a “full service government relations and consulting firm” half a block from the White House. The other was that the president-elect is apparently over “drain the swamp.”

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: Newt Gingrich. Audio sound bite number five. Newt was on NPR today, Morning Edition. By the way, I want to apologize to the staff. This is like the third day in a row that we've had a sound bite from NPR, and that means somebody is -- you turn on NPR and it's the hardest thing in the world not to fall asleep. And my staff even during the holidays performing yeoman duty. I mean, they watch CNN. They do screen MSNBC in case something that might survive the ban here, but now NPR. Newt was there...

On his nationally syndicated radio show Wednesday, host Sean Hannity discussed with former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich the Left’s onslaught on Trump and his administration’s legitimacy, Gingrich explaining, “They’re facing the end of their way of life.” “We’re talking here about the end of their world,” said former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich. “You know, Donald Trump is the real deal. He is the first decisive change since 1932, much bigger, much deeper than Ronald Reagan, and the Left knows it. And they’re facing, you know, they’re facing the end of their way of life.” Sound clip...

"He's three different people," Gingrich said of the president-elect. "If you want to understand how Trump operates, he has the disruptive patterns of Andrew Jackson, he has the sheer biological energy of Theodore Roosevelt, and he has the compulsive salesmanship of P.T. Barnum. "And these three weave together to produce outcomes that are dramatically better than anyone I've ever seen." Gingrich noted that the Republican Party is now at a "watershed" moment in the life of the nation. "We are potentially, if we do our jobs, at a genuine watershed. I always use the watershed model because when the rain...

Newt Gingrich said Tuesday that President-elect Donald Trump’s biggest mistake since the election was his claiming without any evidence that millions of votes were illegally cast on Election Day. "The president of the United States can't randomly tweet without having somebody check it out," Gingrich, a vice chair on Trump's transition team, told USA Today’s Susan Page during an appearance on the Capital Download video series. “I mean it just— It makes you wonder about whatever else he's doing. It undermines much more than a single tweet." On Sunday, Trump falsely (sic) claimed that “millions” of people voted illegally, preventing...
