No, I can't. I can't share that. But they the transition had left the official people had left him out to dry.
Yeah. You know, I just don't think we know enough, like Naomi was saying. I think she's raised some very good questions about the structure of Doge. Oversight, right? And I went in one of our past episodes in our conversations, I likened it to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I believe it was called, right? The CFPB and Republicans took a real issue with that.
It was sort of installed under the Dodd-Frank, I believe it was, piece of legislation. They always disliked it, but at least I guess it was a piece of legislation that allowed for it. So I think there's questions about how it would work. Now, I am a little bit concerned about
Elon Musk having decision making power over too much, especially as he's now also, you know, on X, he can kind of decide a lot of who gets amplified and who doesn't and how much reach you have. He's amassing a great amount of power and he's now moving into Europe as well. Um, I want to know more about it.
And this is something that I've been meaning to ask, particularly some of my friends that have worked had worked in the first administration office of management budget, because typically, wouldn't you think that would fall under OMB, which is going to be ran once again by Russ Vogt. So I've been meaning to ask them how this would work, how Doge will work with OMB.
And I think they could probably give us some good perspective. So maybe in another week, Naomi, I'll have some better answers for you on that. I've been meaning that as my homework.
It shouldn't be, but, you know, here we are. I know, it is.
I might have an answer for that.
So right before we jumped on, I was on a call and I was talking to someone, you know, working with transition, and they suggested that it could be Morgan Ortegas. She was just nominated as, you know, the deputy special envoy, I think is what it's called. You know, there's all these titles to the Middle East. She's a Trump, first Trump administration official.
She was a spokesperson, State Department spokesperson, but she's been a very rapid anti-Trumper and she's a chameleon. Her positions change, you know, all over the place. He, if you saw the announcement that Trump put out in his nomination of Morgan Ortegas, it was all I don't want to do this. This is her record. But the Republicans, who turns out to be Lindsey Graham, told me I have to do this.
I don't think this was a good look for Trump. I don't think he should have done it that way, even if he was going to nominate her, because I feel like it makes him look weak. A lot of people thought it was funny. And he said, these things usually don't turn out well. We'll see. So apparently there's some suggestion that right after, you know, they're inaugurated and he gets his people in.
Apparently, this is the word on the street. Lindsey Graham and a couple other senators told Donald Trump that if he didn't appoint Morgan Ortegas, they wouldn't confirm people like RFK and Pete Hexath. Specifically, those two names were mentioned. So this person suggested to me that maybe she's the first to go. Yeah.
I mean, it's a hard decision between a D and an F. We might have had worse, so I'll say D. I understand they might staffing with some people underneath them. State is always a fight because state is maybe the swampiest department in all of D.C., Right. I don't care much for Rubio because when he was on the Senate, I mean, you know, he's part of the Senate Intelligence Committee.
And when the whole Russia gate hoax was being perpetuated, Rubio was on that committee. He was privy to the to the to the classified information. It was obviously a hoax and he didn't get out there on the airwaves and dispel it. Donald Trump's first term was totally hampered by that and overshadowed.
Also, Rubio, during the pandemic, when members of the military reached out to him, his constituents, and asked for help in fighting the vaccine mandates, they would get letters back from him telling them to just get the jab. It's what's recommended.
Susan, what...
Yeah. I literally refer to some appointments in terms or, you know, some length of time that someone serves under Donald Trump or works for him in levels of Scaramucci's. One Scaramucci, two Scaramucci's.
Yeah, you can find Emerald and Naomi on, of course, the Daily Cloud, dailycloud.io. We're also live stream on Rumble and X every time we do a live show. We share it on our Substacks. Hers is Outspoken, a Substack. Mine is Emerald.tv, which is the right way. And what are you going to see? I mean, you're going to see a lot of what you saw here.
Now, Naomi and I come from different backgrounds, different perspectives, but we both have a wealth of information and expertise from being on the inside. And so we know how these different political circles work. And I think you get a different kind of analysis and an honest analysis because look, Naomi and I aren't trying to get jobs anywhere.
We're not trying to be on a corporate media, you know, get the next corporate media job. And we have a real conversation and honest analysis that you, we just talked about this, Drew, you don't get that much anymore. People don't ask questions anymore anymore.
