“I remember when ... most every one here seemed to think Tillerson was the cat’s meow of DJT’s appointees. “
Sometimes people don’t turn out to be who you thought they were. I just wish that President Trump would apply that same logic to Sessions.
How many times have we heard this through this year?
>>>I wonder why this admin hasn’t a place for Bolton
Different philosophies. Trump is America First and Bolton has never seen a country he hasn’t wanted to invade and establish a new government.
I’m not impressed with Mr. Pro-Gay, bert.
Maybe you like gay stuff, but I don’t.
How long have HHS and DHS been vacant?
I wonder if this is anywhere in the whole confusing mix?
“A lawyer for former DNC IT staffer Imran Awan is scrambling to block evidence found on a hidden laptop which may contain proof of a massive spy ring operating at the highest levels of Congress, in what may be the largest breach of National Security in U.S. history.”
Tillerson cancelled a planned speech and is at the White House.
"I'd rather have Cotton in the Senate"
Is he nuts? We can’t afford to lose any more from the Senate. Pompeo is a former intelligence officer and is in the right place - leave him right where he is. Find someone else to replace Tillerson BUT NOT FROM THE SENATE or even the House! Nothing wrong with Cotton but he’s needed in the Senate.
Who do you reckon would be his interim replacement?
“”Why set up two Senate confirmations? Slip Amb Bolton into State, and let the big dawg eat.””
Well, that will get you a big bite from a lot of FReepers but I agree with you. The position is made for Bolton but I guess there’s bad blood between Trump and Bolton for some reason. That’s according to the gossip/rumor mill!
I’m not sure, but I do somewhat trust Asa Hutchinson to make an informed decision.
He could do worse than Jeremy Gillam, Speaker of the Arkansas House.
That may be a great article but the CIA doesn’t have a role in immigration. Leave Cotton where he is!!! Stop messing around with the number of GOP seats in the Senate. GADS - who’s making these decisions?
I have only heard Amb Bolton consistently underscore the sovereignty of the United States. I have never heard him being a one world order proponent.
“”Read the piece I posted above for an example of Senator Cotton’s thinking””
Which would be useless to him and the country at the CIA! Immigration is not their bailiwick.
He put out a statement remembering the plight of the trannies. That means State has one employee too many.
He fagged up the BSA. And it wasn’t something he had no control over.
He lobbied for it and fought hard for it with the board of directors.
When a man fights that hard for it... it makes me wonder why.
This plan would cost us another R Senator....NOT a good idea !!!
Use Bolton if necessary-—but do NOT remove an R senator!
He did not fag up the BSA
That is a false charge
The responsibility for Registering adult scouters falls on the sponsoring institution
I’ve been a Bolton fan since Dubya. Get this dude to State and he’ll completely drain that part of the Swamp, I guarantee.
My "friends" here in the swamp just recited for me the reasons why it is imperative to impeach Trump. What you just wrote is part of the indictment.
But, you left off the part about tearing up decades, nay centuries, of carefully crafted foreign policy and driving a wedge between ourselves and our allies, and backing NK into a corner where they will be forced to go to nuclear war with us after decades of careful diplomacy had them backed into a corner.
And yes, they read the Compost in on the train to work every morning.
