Israel Hayom ^ | 11/6/2024 | Ariel Kahana

The former president sees loyalty as a key criterion as he considers a mix of familiar faces and new allies for top positions.

-snip-

the State Department leadership is likely to be determined from among three contenders: former National Security Advisor Robert O'Brien, Senator Bill Hagerty of Tennessee, and Senator Marco Rubio of Florida.

-snip-

Former US Ambassador Richard Grenell, who served as Trump's envoy to Germany, has emerged as a leading candidate for national security advisor.

The defense secretary position has drawn three prominent candidates: former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Representative Mike Waltz of Florida, and Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas.

-snip-

For White House chief of staff, the highest-ranking position within the president's inner circle, veteran political strategist Susie Wiles has emerged as the leading candidate. Wiles, widely credited as the mastermind behind Trump's recent election victory, may be joined in the senior leadership team by former Trump White House official Brooke Rollins, who is also under consideration for the role.

I have Pompeo's bio. Best SOS we've had in 100 years.

He is not deep state. He was appointed CIA and you expected what?? And because your "what" didn't happen, you throw him to the curb. He's had a stunning career. Go back to what he's done over the years. I think he's very Vance-like.

O’Keefe Media Group Exposes Alleged CIA Plot Against Trump

PJ Media ^ | MAY 02, 2024 | Matt Margolis
Posted on 5/3/2024, 9:47:16 AM by george76

high-level intelligence community executives—including former Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Director and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and former CIA Director Gina Haspel—withheld information from former President Donald Trump throughout his administration..

A video posted on social media by James O’Keefe features Amjad Anton Fseisi, purported to be the project manager for cyber operations at the CIA. In the video, the undercover reporter for O’Keefe Media Group gets Fseisi to admit that several intelligence agencies deliberately withheld information from Trump out of some absurd fear that he might “disclose it.” Fseisi is seen in the recording admitting that intelligence agencies “all got together and said, ‘We're not gonna tell Trump.’”

“The executive staff,” Fseisi said in response to a question about who specifically was involved in the decision.

“We're talking about the director and his subordinates.” That would include Pompeo and Haspel....

Pompeo Dunks On Trump Over Debt, Suggests Former Boss Isn't ‘True’ Conservative

The Daily Wire ^ | 03/05/2023 | Daniel Chaitin
Posted on 3/6/2023, 1:34:07 PM by thegagline

Mike Pompeo is openly casting doubt on the conservative bonafides of his one-time boss, former President Donald Trump, ahead of a potential face-off in 2024.

During an interview on “Fox News Sunday,” Pompeo talked about how a conservative president is needed to tackle the nation's budget deficit and debt after years of neglect, including during the Trump administration. Anchor Shannon Bream then asked Pompeo if he was saying Trump was not a “true conservative leader,” using her guest's words to describe the kind of president he argued is necessary to attain fiscal responsibility.

Fox's Shannon Bream: “Are you saying that President Trump wasn't a true conservative leader?”
*** Pompeo’s comments Sunday build upon remarks he delivered at Conservative Political Action Conference, chastising Trump for the nearly $8 trillion rise in the national debt during his presidency, largely attributed to coronavirus relief. “I stare today at $31 trillion in debt and tell my son, ‘Make sure you work hard, because Social Security may just not be there for you,’” he said on Friday, according to The Hill.

“Every recent administration, Republican and Democrat alike, added trillions in dollars to our debt,” Pompeo continued. “That is deeply unconservative. [The] Trump administration, the administration I served, added $8 trillion in new debt. This is indecent and can't continue. Earning back that trust will be hard work, it won't just be a campaign speech.”

Tucker Carlson said he hates Trump ‘passionately’: legal filings

Fox News host Tucker Carlson privately expressed contempt for former President Trump in text messages revealed in court filings as part of the network’s ongoing legal fight with Dominion Voting Systems.

“We are very very close to being able to ignore Trump most nights. I truly can’t wait,” Carlson wrote in one text to an unidentified Fox employee on Jan. 4, 2021, according to the filing. “I hate him passionately, I blew up at Peter Navarro today in frustration. I actually like Peter. But I can’t handle much more of this.”

Pompeo is all on for Ukraine and wanted to assassinate Assange. Eff that globalist clown. And at CIA and State he did nothing but protect the conspirators.
His diplomats were leading the charge against Trump in the first impeachment.

But his effort to breach the Ecuadoran embassy and kidnap Assange and execute him. He’s a dangerous lunatic and time for Trump 2.0 to be cleansed of globalists.

Pompeo talks like a Christian. I’ve heard him. However, Everything he did was to protect and provide cover for the deep state. We need someone like Milei from Argentina that will gut the deep state

Tucker backstabbed Trump during the 2020 Steal. Pompeo stood by Trump until the very end.

The main thing he needs to do is IGNORE any recommendations by the government transition team appointed to assist him in the transfer of power.

This is not about policy.

It is about Swamp.

Anyone from politics is disqualified.

Frankly, if you have heard of them, they are disqualified. Trump should hire from business.

I want Rick Grenell for something, maybe FBI director. When he was acting DNI under Trump he was releasing info the bureaucrats had hidden and lied about, FISA stuff and Russion Probe stuff that really explained a lot of how they were abusing power. he seemed a straight shooter.
