Peloni: This reprehensible horse trade being put forward in this ‘deal’ demonstrates the very essence of Washington corruption. While it might seem to be the means to an end for some, the reality is that any deal which might be appealing to the establishment globalist cronies should be understood to be contrary to the general interests of the American people, and specifically that of Trump’s MAGA movement. What is more, is that even as the dew is still fresh on Trump’s electoral victory, the Deep State officiates are testing his metal, to see how easily he will bend to their demands, even with the public fully behind Trump.
The only reply to such a gambit as this should be a quick and easy NO! Hopefully, Trump has already delivered such a reply.

The “Big Ugly” was always a description of the battle that few understood. You cannot be betrayed by your enemies; that happens when your allies reveal themselves against your interests. Majority Leader John Thune will play his cards carefully in order to extract maximum damage.
The Senate is factually the core of republican opposition to MAGA and President Trump. The visible battle against Obama, Biden, Harris and the professional political left, always consumes the most attention. However, it is the less-visible battle against the entrenched ideological republicans that proves to be the hardest.
The Republicans in the upper chamber will not relinquish power easily. They have a multitude of weapons to use against the insurgency of President Trump supporters. We are seeing this play out now in the alignment of Republican Senators who stand in opposition to President Trump’s nomination of Matt Gaetz as U.S. Attorney General, and this recent report aligns with exactly the type of move we would expect.
The basic outline is that senate leadership will reluctantly support Matt Gaetz for Main Justice, where ‘support’ means they will not directly oppose; in exchange for the nomination of FBI Director Mike Rogers to defend their interests at FBI.
This is the typical type of deal the DeceptiCons are well known for.
Thune and McConnell (in background) have yet to reveal who they have planned to place in the chair positions of multiple committees. We are very interested to see who chairs the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence because that mutually dependent relationship is the core of the IC influence in the legislative branch. The same may be said for the chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, and ultimately the Gaetz nomination.
This recent report aligns with information we have received from the senate staff offices who are discussing the Gaetz nomination. Thune would not make such a proposal openly, for obvious reasons, but intermediaries would relay the message between the upper chamber and the transition team.
??BREAKING News: I’m hearing that there are negotiations taking place between Trump’s Transition Team and GOP Senators.
The discussions are in regards to Gaetz, Tulsi and RFK Jr. with the GOP wanting Mike Rogers for FBI Director.

President Donald Trump would regret the day, if such terms were agreed. Former House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence Chairman Mike Rogers is a well-known deep state operative who would be guaranteed to work closely with the Intelligence Community in opposition to the interests of those who would like to see the FBI reformed or structurally rebuilt.
Mike Rogers himself came from within the FBI and then went to congress where he carried the agenda of the FBI into the House Intel Committee. It was that IC agenda that led to the Rogers/Ruppersberger report exonerating Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama for the Benghazi fiasco that led to Ambassador Chris Stephens murder.
There is no deal like this that is worth making. The DNI (Tulsi), DHS (Noem), HHS (RFK JR) and DOJ (Gaetz) nominations should stand on their own – along with a radical reform nomination, at best, for the FBI.
This type of deal is exactly how the IC can hunker down and avoid the sunlight of investigation upon their corrupt operations. This type of deal is how the counterintelligence division of the FBI can simply operate to protect the DOJ-NSD embeds that will attempt to remain in power within Main Justice. This type of deal is how the FBI remains entirely political.
The MAGA majority needs to keep leaning forward and telling the Senate republican representatives about their expectations for support. Don’t let the scheming and conniving Senate Republican “leadership” have an inch of breathing space.
NO DEAL!
