What shocking nominations did Trump announce at the start of the episode?
Audible gasps, shock, and horror across Capitol Hill and across the United States of America at this very moment, as Donald Trump has announced that he is nominating Matt Gates to be the next attorney general of the United States and Tulsi Gabbard to be the next Director of National Intelligence. I'm not making this up, folks. This is not a prank. This is real life. But as Democrats Congress member Jared Moscow had said, this is what the people voted for. This is what MAGA wanted. This is what happens when corporate media both sides it. Let me repeat that one more time. Matt Gates, formally nominated by Donald Trump to be the next Attorney General of the United States, and Tulsi Gaber nominated to be the next Director of National Intelligence of the United States.
As Anne Grayer of C. CNN reports House GOP members were meeting behind closed doors when they heard the news that Trump named Matt Gates to be his attorney general. There was an audible gasp from the members in the room the moment they found out, according to sources who were in the room. Let's take a look at some more information there. Melanie Zenona, who was there as well, says early reaction from GOP members on Selecting Matt Gates for attorney general. Representative Don Bacon says, I've got no good comment. That's a Republican. Meanwhile, Representative Garrett Graves, a Kevin McCarthy ally, literally ran away from me and Annie Grayer of C and then when we tried to ask him about Gates, ran away, grabbing other members by the shoulders to use him as a body shield to.
Block us. Josh Brenchahan, reporter for Punchbowl News, says Senator Chuck Grassley was so exasperated by the Gates questions that he stopped talking to reporters and he stood there stonefaced for about 30 seconds. Andrew DeSiderio says that his phone, his phone has been blowing up with Senate Republican aides aghast at Trump's nomination of Mad. Matt Gates to be the next Attorney General of the United States. Some quite confidently saying. There's no way that their bosses, that the senators, even the Republican senators, will vote to confirm him. We will see. Recall Donald Trump wants to push through his nominations through a process called recess confirmations, where he doesn't even want the Senate to hold hearings.
He wants to rule like a dictator. Um, we reported earlier in the day that uh Republicans Senator John Thune became the majority leader. He's more of a moderate Republican. We're ultimately gonna have to see what he does. Ron Philipkowski writes. So did the Normies who voted for Trump because they think Biden made Bacon more expensive, even though he didn't, realize that Matt Gates would be attorney general, a Putin propagandist, and Tulsi Gabbard would be the director of Of National Intelligence and a Fox host would be Secretary of Defense. Can't forget about that. Donald Trump named like a random Fox News host to be the Secretary of Defense. I have a feeling this won't be the last time that we say we try to warn you.
Ron Philipkowski also writes: Shouldn't the Attorney General be someone who was actually practiced law? Law at some point. Well, no, a Matt Gaetz posts things like this before the election. Matt Gaetz wrote: The core plot of the Barbie movie was distracting men so they wouldn't vote. Don't make the Barbie movie come true. Matt Gates also said um during the midterms that um women who were upset about Roe being overturned were fat and ugly, and that's why they were concerned. Um To begin with, he says, 'cause they're fat and ugly. Here, play this clip.
Is it safe to say that based off of your comments you're suggesting that these women at these abortion rallies are ugly and overweight?
Yes.
What do you say to people who think that those comments are offensive?
How did House GOP members react behind closed doors to Matt Gaetz’s AG nomination?
Be offended.
By the way, others on Capitol Hill, like Mark Wayne Mullen, uh senator from Oklahoma, had previously said that Matt Gates would brag about how he would crush erectile dysfunction medication and chase him with energy drinks so he could go all night play this clip.
