Sauer did a great job arguing ‘Absolute Immunity’ and ‘Plenary Power’ on President Trump’s behalf in the Supreme Court.
President Trump has announced the nomination of Dean John Sauer for the position of U.S. Solicitor General.
[Source]
The U.S. Solicitor General is the fourth highest ranking member within the Dept of Justice. The task of the Office of the Solicitor General (OSG) is to supervise and conduct government litigation in the United States Supreme Court. All Supreme Court litigation is channeled through the Office of the Solicitor General and is actively conducted by the Office. The United States government is involved in approximately two-thirds of all the cases the U.S. Supreme Court decides each year.

PT just announced his 2 personal attorneys are his pick for the #2 and #4 slot at the DOJ. Remember these two guys fought face to face against Jack Smith’s attacks on PT.
So it would seem they know/understand Jack pretty well.
Does this signal that the hunted now are the hunters?
With Paxton’s Tues lawsuit filing, demanding all Jack Smith documents be retained (not destroyed) and with these two guys to go along with Gaetz does it seem like possibly Jack, Garland and even possibly Biden are their first investigative targets?
And if this is the investigative target, is the objective to determine if a conspiracy/collusion existed to go after Trump the candidate?
Thoughts?
Biden endorsing Kamala almost immediately after stepping down as the dem candidate locked her in as his replacement. There is absolutely NO WAY that Kamala was intended to be his replacement by the party establishment.
Biden stabbed his own party in the back, and he would not have done so without a guarantee from Trump. In forcing him out Joe knew he would not be protected. So he cut a deal with Trump, and in exchange for this betrayal along with all details on where all the democrat/Obama/Clinton and DC bodies are buried, Biden and his family are now protected.
The Art of the Deal.
And, for the sake of the country and the MAGA agenda, it’s a good one.
Joe would have been tougher to beat than Kamala, and it is almost certain that Joe and his loyalists did much to sabotage Willie Brown’s old squeeze.
Do you have proof of these statements or are these just your personal thoughts. This is not a criticism, merely requesting clarification.
Remarks like these can cause problems for PDJT. IMO as a prefix is a good way to clarify when posting an opinion.
Great thoughts though👍
im asking as well thx
How could a comment that is obviously an opinion from an anonymous CTH poster cause problems for Trump?
Is there any proof of that?
No. It’s a ridiculous statement. But I’ll play along for the uninitiated’s benefit (below).
Media influencers watch everything we do on this and other conservative platforms, searching for some useful tidbit they can sensationalize. All day every day on every conservative platform. They try to bait us into saying something they can use.
Proof?
Exhibit A is Kamala-la-la-ding-dong as the dem candidate (vs Gavin Newsom)…..the most unpopular and lowest-rated VP in US history.
Exhibit B is Biden’s immediate endorsement of her, giving party elites no time to call for an open primary or suggest someone else (like Gavin Newsom).
Exhibit C is all the different things Biden did to undermine the ditzy harpie, like putting on a MAGA hat and calling Trump supporters “garbage” (among much else, like holding an unannounced presser right when she was taking the stage for her first “rally”).
Exhibit D is Jill Biden wearing a MAGA red pantsuit to the polls on election day. THAT was as blatant a signal as it gets! Jill wanted the shiv to be seen by all of America.
Exhibit E is Biden grinning like a Cheshire cat when Trump visited the WH yesterday.
And Exhibit F is Pelosi hitting the talk shows all but blaming Biden outright for losing this election by waiting so long to back out of running and, having done that, then endorsing Kamala rather than calling for an open primary to replace himself.
Biden shivved the dems to save himself and his family by handing Trump and MAGA an overwhelming, mandate victory (which isn’t to say Trump could not have won, but Joe def. helped make things “too big to rig”).
As mafioso might say….it’s nothing personal, it’s just business.
But you ignore the bullseye FJB put on Trump’s back & the Lawfare attacks initiated on FJB’s orders–all intended to keep Trump from running again if not assassinated.
The other things you recite may infer a reconciliation between the 2 for nicey-nice purposes but I doubt it. I think FJB & Jill the Enabler are glad FJB’s the only one who “beat” (outcheated) Trump & they’re hoping for a pardon for Humper. And yes, they’re very happy Kamala lost. FJB is still not speaking to Pelosi. The Bidens are nothing but vindictive.
Joe will issue blanket pardons all over the place as he exits and use Gaetz’s nomination as the excuse.
Hunter will be at the top, as will Joe himself and his brother.
We can hope that his time at the WH will be nullified and anything his creepy little grub beaters touched, signed, authorized will all be nullified from a Supreme Court ruling reversing the results of the 2020 election.
That is the only way to wax off the illegalities of it all and hold a great many treasonous SOB’s accountable. Signed an SD student in counter law-fare . ⚡️👍
All those exhibits could also just reflect their hatred of Kamala, and no deal.
Where is the Thumbs Down for this nonsense?
I read that Trump called Joe sometime after the debate, and in exchange for help with fraud would not go after the family. Jill wore red election day, and Biden put on a MAGA hat briefly that week. Read it on Hal Turners site, but it`s just hearsay. Makes sense though.
I respectfully disagree that joe would have been harder to beat than kamala- they both were designated losers. imho.
True.
But MAGA needed a “too big to rig” victory. And therein lies the distinction.
They way Joe handled things all but guaranteed that massive, overwhelming victory. But don’t take my word for it, take Nasty Nancy Pelosi’s.
Amen. Contentious article supporting this, but it is a very good read:
The Regime Wanted Trump and Kamala Harris Was a Jobber
Probably, but running The Kamala-kazee instead of Shapiro or Newsom was a deliberate act to loot the $1.5 billion war chest the Democrats had for the race. The Dems were feeding off the $$$ like pigs at the trough and Kamala was too stupid to even know it was happening much less put a stop to it:
$10 Million to Beyonce
$1 Million to Oprah
$281 Million to an Atlanta Entertainment broker
I suspect they thought that she would get all the female votes since Kamala was female. Additionally, since she claims this year she is black she would get all the black votes. They are so elite that they think Democratic voters are stupid.
brought to you by the letter Q
President Trump did not give any “guarantees” to the creep occupying the white house. You don’t give guarantees to evil.
The creep and his wife blew up their party because of their ego. They were forced to relinquish power and they were having none of it. Creepy and Jill are not MAGA. They will never be MAGA.
No one, esp. me, ever accused them of “being MAGA”.
And you could be right.
But….
It would be a dumbass move.
Blow up the party for ego’s sake alone, when they could get a “favor” from Trump in doing so?
Doubtful.
If Biden is never indicted, then I will take that as a sign he had an agreement with Trump & Co. Lord knows they have the goods on him!
Presidential immunity goes both ways!
I was hoping he would make that offer yesterday. You are way ahead of me, or should I say Trump is way ahead of me. I hope you are correct. I estimate a 40 60 proposition.
This is off topic for SD’s post. It’s an interesting conjecture but there are better threads for it.
“…. & he would not have done so without a guarantee from Trump”
Nah. The Old Man has taken 2 lifetimes of their bullshit & he’s 82yo.
He is officially Dark Brandon. What are they gonna do to him?
Kill his favorite son? Beau’s already dead. Ruin his other son’s life? Hunter’s already a disappointment. Reveal the names of every Senator’s wife he’s slept with? That would only make him look cooler.
Expose his shenanigans in Ukraine? Everyone already knows & nobody cares. (Actually, the man who probably knows the MOST about that is Ihor Kolomoisky. He deposited all his dirt on Biden w/ a former US Atty from Alabama as insurance. But he’s retired from public life. Zelensky stripped him of citizenship & he’s exiled in Tel Aviv. He doesn’t need to call in the insurance anymore)
He does NOT care. His family is set for life. Trump will probably pardon Hunter. His work on this earth is finished
No…
the main reason for Kamala to be the replacement nominee was mostly financial – she was the only person that could use the Billion $ already raised – anyone else would not have access to it due to “rules”. Also, any other candidate would not have been “controllable” – would be too much of an independent thinker – especially a Gavin Newsome – his ego is 10x greater than any other politician in the world (even that of his distant relative up North).
Grassley and Johnson have also sent a letter demanding he preserve all records.
However it turns out, I want to see them go after any coordination between the DOJ and White House with Bragg, Fanni, Merchan, Chutkyan and any other Lawfare type.
The first one I heard warning the Blobsters about preserving all their records was Steve Bannon.
Probably well over a year ago.
My point is, quite a few people have mentioned the same thing lately…
Sauer is a principal in Missouri v. Biden per posted video.
Yes, Todd Blanche as the #2, Deputy AG. Pretty cool. He has a great scowl too.
Paxton will be AG when the Senate nukes Gaetz by a vote (Murkowski is trash). Sauer is pretty damn great!
I also suspect that Gaetz is intended to draw the fury and fire of the malcontents, making a “nay” vote against Paxton that much more difficult to justify after scuttling Gaetz’s confirmation.
Then again, there is much talk of recess appointments.
It will be most interesting to see how all unfolds.
I wonder if in history has a President ever been denied his #1 pick and then his follow up #1 pick?
I don’t think the opposition cares about history. They’ve made PDJT the first for many dreadful things.
It’s not an exact comparison, but in 1969-1970 Nixon had two Supreme Court candidates in a row rejected by the Senate. The third nominee ended up being Harry Blackmun, he of the infamous Roe v Wade decision.
closest I remember was when Reagan appointed Robert Bork. Ted Kennedy led the torpedo’ing. Then Reagan appointed a guy named Ginsburg. His nomination was pulled within a week after he admitted smoking pot with a student. Thats how we ended up with Justice Kennedy (who was largely a disappointment).
Personally, I see it as another opportunity to buy the hell out of our great Senate RINOs.
Exactly. I think Gaetz is both the flex test and the heat shield. If Gaetz gets in, it tells Trump how much power he has. If he doesn’t get it, it tells Trump the limits of his influence in the Senate….AND, they’ll just flip to someone even better (tactically) than Gaetz.
And that person will get through, and be awesome.
Don’t worry about Murkowski; President Trump has enough on her to squash like a bug; same with Collins.
Right now it’s all bluster to cover up for their shock and awe at these bold (how dare you Donald) moves.
This too shall pass and President Trump will prevail.
P47 sure looks like he’s holding Aces over Kings right now! Makes me want to do the Trump Dance!
I’m of the opinion that if Gaetz gets too much opposition, PTrump will put Gaetz in as a temporary appointment at first, then adjourn Congress to force the recess appointment.
It does not seem to me PTrump is fooling around this time, given the last 5 years.
I tend to think the RINO’s and Dems way overplayed their hands. I almost pity them, seeing how their masters forced them into this position. Almost, because the degeneracy of their lawfare, coupled with the woke and DEI policies, is not pitiable, but disgusting.
I keep thinking about the low levels being pushed to report on the next level and so on, and so. Crimes galore and prison sentences for many, including some in Congress. And that’s before we even get to massive levels of election fraud over many years. Payback is coming. Bigly, and rightly so.
I’m betting Biden issues blanket pardons to the entire DoJ/FBI/IC swamp on his way out the door on 20 Jan.
That will not stop Trump from firing them and will negatively impact their resumes forever.
I posted above. Let’s hope a nullification of Biden as P(resident) gets handed down by the Supreme Court. Then RICO every last one of the Treasonous SOB’s… After the last 4 years and all the lawlessness even a judge can see,,, this nation deserves to right this wrong. Mildly put,,,,Fight Fight Fight.
Murkowski voted to confirm Merrick Garland! LOL
I’m thinking more and more Gaetz is a decoy and him going to the Senate was the plan all along.
The Senate won’t be able to deny PT his #2 pick at the DOJ who when confirmed can be the acting DOJ until PT uses the Vacancy Act or direct nomination to get Paxton in as AG.
IMO there is some real strat going on in PT plans for DOJ with the goal to expose the weaponization claims especially against him the candidate at the time.
I think Donald Trump will go to the mat for Gaetz. The current justice department is corrupt and needs to be fumigated. Lawfare collusion should be exposed as Congressional House Republicans are demanding the justice department preserve all documents.
Go get em President Trump!
Lara Trump wants the Senate seat.
That would burn some political capital. A lot of Trump’s crossover supporters would not like the nepotism – especially right out of the gate. He needs to keep the powder dry for when the real battles begin.
They’ve already begun.
Source?
Why would DeSantis nominate her?
I’d think he would name himself or a placeholder and run in 26.
Plenty of precedence for setting Governors to name themselves to fill vacant Senate seats.
She should stay as RNC co chair. She is good at it. Besides, Eric runs the Trump Organization, not small task, they have young children and a move to DC won’t be a good thing.
I believe all the points you make were factored into their strategy, but I think Trump really does want Gaetz as AG, and he’ll do a recess appointment if they give him the chance. But remember, a recess appointment will expire at the end of the next session of Congress. It’s possible that their plan is that Paxton will become AG two years from now.
Meanwhile, Blanche & Ebon whittle away de-weaponizing the DOJ. And they do know where to start.
John Sauer is an excellent pick. He is knowledgable, wise and articulate. He is also a man of impeccable character.
Roll Mr. President, Roll!
Sauer earned the position. Congratulations due him.
Burgum for Interior.
Just stated by PDJT.
Formal announcement tomorrow.
It was just reported on X that he would be nominated for some major energy related position tomorrow.
I guess when you open up federal lands to energy exploration, it could be seen as energy related.
This pick is BAD!
Burgum is involved with a a major state wide corruption scandal that’s garnering attention.
Curious to know what that is, and if he is tied in with Hoeven and Cramer and the carbon capture pipeline nonsense pushed through by McConnell in the first spending bill after Biden was installed.
Big scandal involving a defense and air industry supplier, a state bank, the entire political class of the state and US Senators, local media, graft, murders, etc. and a whistle-blower they attempted to bribe and silence. Has the receipts, audio recordings and support of a very few state level politicians.
TGP has ran a few articles on it amongst others.
It’s getting uglier by the day if the whistle-blower isn’t killed or Lawfared.
Indeed.
Speaking of, Boeing says hi.
Thanks for that BK. I usually see what TGP has to report on things on X, but for whatever reason, they have really been throttled lately.
Hard to believe Trump nominated either Gaetz or Burgum without being certain that they are clean of any charges.
The DOJ dropped the sexual harrassment case against Gaetz early last year. The House Ethics Committee has been keeping the salacious case on life support ever since.
Maybe I’m missing something, but if the lawfare DOJ, (which indicts pro-Trump ham sandwiches and does 3am SWAT raids on pro-lifers and school board parents) and would LOVE to indict a MAGA firebrand like Gaetz, dismissed this case, it’s hard for me to believe that there was any “there” there.
A very, very serious one at that, if accusations are to be believed.
I have not seen the receipts tho.
Will his nomination bring light to this scandal?
Purposely?
🤔
That would seemingly be very risky to the nominator and his team of vetters, wouldn’t it?
Asking sincerely.
About as risky as putting an IC controlled RINO asset at the State Department that revelations could come out later on also, and then be fired and removed from power and influence all together, once and for all.
Redux at Interior?
5D chess?
Isn’t that risky to the nominator and vetters also? 😉
Oooooooooo.
I like it!!
Thank you! 😎
Well, nothing like a confirmation hearing to blow that up.
Another great pick.
Anyone else get the sense these position nominations are coming much faster than in 2016?
I recall a few that were made at the time, but much of it was drowned out by the media clamoring to know who was going into specific positions like Nat Sec Advisor.
I’m pretty sure the Derp State is freaking out at the pace and the quality of these picks.
This is much faster. It’s only been nine days and he has his cabinet almost filled.
The oceans will rise but not because of climate change. They will rise because of political change and melting snowflakes .
POTUS is on a roll. Can you imagine how much he’s enjoying this!
I can’t help myself.
Our new SoD is fine.
https://x.com/johnrich/status/1856807056981827877
Was saying to hubby today our new Sec Def is pretty darn hot!!!
So ray-cyst that all of Trump’s nominees appear–uh, what’s the word?–competent.
Definitely have an (south) African and an Indian in this new DOGE dept.
Tears of JOY are running down my cheeks! This is a GREAT choice! I know his family well…big Reagan supporters and Tea Party as well. WOW!
BTW: All is NOT what it seems with Gaetz. Major situations will be raising an ugly head and I doubt seriously he would get a Senate seat if so. From a trusted personal impeccable Florida source. Same source warned me about Pence when first put up as VP.
So are you saying PDT is putting Gaetz out to dry? Because it seems that is what you are implying. I would hardly think he would do that to such a supporter.
All I can say is I have faith in Trump’s decisions and that is all I have to say.
Winimins!!
On the topic of nominees… What is Rick Grenell going to be doing?
Hopefully something that’s gonna make their heads Splodey more than Gaetz.
This is better than watching the NFL Draft!
He clerked for Scalia!
It seems that all of President Trump’s picks so far are individuals who have courageously fought battles against America’s enemies-both domestic and foreign. I like it!
He’ll come in handy when certain Federal judges find themselves the subjects of inquiries into Crossfire Hurricane and other judicial shenanigans. They’ll try to hide behind separation of powers, which means potential inquiries against Judge Boasberg, should that happen, probably get litigated at SCOTUS. The public has a right to know if Judge Boasberg knew that DOJ attorney Clinesmith was lying on those FISA warrants, and just how many questions he asked (or didn’t ask) before signing off on the Trump spying operation.
Just imo, if I’m PDJT, some of my first actions after being sworn in would be to clear out the primary threats to myself personally and to my agenda. So top priority, to the extent possible, would be to clear out & replace the people in DOJ, FBI, NSA, CIA, SS, and replace multiple (if not all) US Military leaders (generals and other top level brass).
Another priority would be to immediately start investigations into the NSA spying on myself or other conservatives, and start prosecutions of everyone, including contractors, Gov’t employees, Dem operatives,media members, and anyone else who illegally accessed my electronic comms or those of private citizens, without a warrant.
Again, do not forget the massive degree of election fraud over many years.
DAYam. 👍🏻🏆
Soiled britches in the District Of Criminality!
At the DOJ, there are approximately 230 Presidential Appoint/Senate Confirmed positions available. 93 are District Attorneys and 94 are U.S. Marshals.
Paxton’s absence from any nominations indicates he has other State-side plans such as running for Governor.
Texas needs to be cleaned up to keep it red.
