Dan Scavino Jr is as close a confidant as you can get to President Trump, without being a member of the family. According to a recent Tweet sent by Scavino, President Trump has never considered former HPSCI Chairman Mike Rogers for the position of FBI Director.
[Source]
Dan Scavino would never send this Tweet, without the explicit direction of President Trump telling him to do so. Essentially, this is the soft way for President Trump to tell Mike Rogers and his supporters he is not in the planning.
As stated before, current FBI Director Chris Wray has not resigned, and he has two years left on his term. President Trump cannot fire Chris Wray until he takes office after the inauguration. Therefore, all of the discussion about a new FBI director is essentially moot.
We likely will not know anything about the retention or removal of Christopher Wray, until after President Trump takes office.


FBI and NSA are CRITICAL pics. They got to get these two right. NSA is overlooked a tad compared to the others, but it needs to be a superstar, magastar.
James Comey liked your post:
Comey is who Kamala was talking about, but didn’t finish the thought, “unburdened by what has been, but burdened by what is to come.”
Yes. Bannon mentioned that Brennan, Comey, McCabe and others should lawyer-up.
The left said frequently: “no one is above the law.” That includes them and many others who abused their power and betrayed their country by doing so.
We The People … entrusted them with great power and they have used it to harm America and American citizens. They cannot be permitted to escape justice. They deserve to be held to a very high standard.
Not only that, but….’based on the sensitivity of the matter…..’
Martha Stewart will get her revenge.
Pelosi did 1000x worse than what Martha did. SEC Chairman is also a very important post.
Bingo.
Unless there are some major organization changes requiring Congressional action, I don’t think you are going to see a new DIRNSA (who also is COMCYBERCOM) named until the Trump SecDef team is in place.
There’s been rumors (or maybe wishful thinking) of an O-9/O-10 plucking board. That would need too go down first as I assume the CyberCom component commanders would be shortlisted for DIRNSA normally.
Have no idea what you are talking about. What is DIRNSA AND COMCYBERCOM?
The NSA Director is alway a 3 ⭐️military person, and reports directly to Sec Def — Hegseth. Hegseth needs to be in tne loop on tne pick.
The FBI Director reports to the AG — Bondi.
NSA Director reports to USD(Intel); CYBERCOM 00 reports directly to SecDef. Agency versus COCOM.
When I was at Fort Meade, the NSA hat was the one that was used on the Hill to get what the Commander was after.
You know how you pick out the extroverts at NSA? They stare at your shoes!
Old joke.
That has some truth to it.
Is it true many of those employed at Ft Meade only work a few hours a week.? They spend most of their time in the cafeteria or coffee shop even do all their banking on the clock..Been told this is due to the time management recording only keeps track of who is in the building instead of where they are in the building..
Just thinking of cost cutting measures for IC..
You are right that’s an oldie.
Another one.
The only agency in government that really listens.
Some good news for a change. Whew
We might have dodged a nuclear bullet keeping KaBama & her freak show out of the White House,
However, the Trump Administration is a better looking clown show that will just slow the eventual burning of the Constitution.
At this point, I will assume President Trump will fire Wray and appoint Comey.
You poor thing.
As they say in the South…..”bless his heart”
Heard it all my childhood.
Bless his little pea picking heart.
It is funny hearing it now days.
Pea picking or cotton picking for us was used interchangeably. Dern Democrats was another.
What Fox News guest hosts haven’t been hired yet?
InsHannity at Federal Bureau of Instigators.
He loves the rank and vile.
Good gosh I heard that so much in Trump’s first term. Hannity is insufferable!
I DVR every single one of hs shows! Just to delete it before even watching it! It feels good too!
How in the world did you arrive at such a gigantic and erroneous assumption based on what Scavino said? He’s not known for lying or pretending for pete’s sake.
Relax, kf, it’s a joke. After all, it’s a “sensitive matter”. He just forgot to include the /s.
Might as well keep Merrick Garland as AG too! They will work well together hunting down those terrorist Catholic school moms!
🙄
Ha! We’ll see.
Someone (something?) is hell bent on discrediting PDJT to his supporters. Wonder who Occam thinks it is?
Keeping a keen edge on that razor: Obama.
No. All entrenched DS globalists
Patrick Bet-David said the other day that the biggest loser in this election was Obama and his legacy.
but of course… they’ve been sending Ringers to post here for years, but easy to spot.
Yes, I’ve been noticing a lot of new “guests”. They are easily identified compared to long time attendees; their thought process is just so different.
Me too!
And and I’ve been here quite a few years!
(From Aussieland)
Was just thinking that too. If you’re observant, you can spot them right off. They are really rank amateurs!
Sundance?
Thanks Dan for some salve, while we’re licking our wounds.
Too kind.
Now we can get on being grateful for the table scraps, again.
I know!
Sucks to have THIS be the news we are excitedly grateful for ….
Go do the wash Ma
With the Dem0ncrat Party on the ropes, hoping that PDJT’s team will now make it a priority to strike a body blow to McTurkey and the GOP Inc (i.e. the leper dad in the movie ‘Braveheart’), since imo they are possibly a larger threat to the maga movement than the C0mmie Dems now.
Their tentacles extend into the DC Deepstate and most states across the Country, and although they’re laying low temporarily, would betray DJT and the American people without hesitation if/when the opportunity presents, and with the same ruthless cunning that Robert the Bruce’s leper dad betrayed William Wallace.
Worth remembering that McConnell and his crew knew that J6 was a staged setup, and yet played along with the attempt to get DJT thrown in prison, and maga declared a domestic terr0r group, with hundreds imprisoned with no Constitutional rights.
I hope the rumor is true that DJT threatened to Primary any Senators who try to block his maga agenda, using Elon Musk $$ and influence. Like with venomous serpents, POTUS can’t turn his back to them, and imo should make an effort to weed them out preemptively. Turn their tactics back onto them..
Four rino senators just blocked his appointment of gaetz.
All four RINOS voted to confirm Garland and Holder but won’t give President Trump his pick?
A chart showing that fact should be created and used the next time those 4 are up for re-election. We will see who else they vote against.
A comparative chart would be a simple visual that would dramatically show to voters what team they really play for.
We need a meme to be plastered on all the state media sites for those 4. Make sure ALL the voters in their area know.
You really don’t get it. The Dems have never been the major threat to PDJT and MAGA, ..It was ALWAYS the REPUBLICANS in positions of power and control, in Congress, heading up the 50 State parties, and the RNC.
It was McConnell that was the architect of the J6 operation, and the Russia Russia coup attempt….it has ALWAYS been McConnell.
The Dems are just a distraction, and now that they have temporarily been neutered and muted, we SEE the TRUE ENEMY exposed, and its the Republicon Decepticons.
If this battle/war were between MAGA vs Democrats,it would have been decisively over, MAGA the victor, many years ago.
It was Barzini all the time, Michael!
Yes… but an R controlled Congress provides the opportunity for voters to SEE it themselves… and for PDJT to then promote primarying-out those RINOs starting in 2026.
If Dems controlled Congress we wouldn’t see it.
Will most of the voters recognize it? I think we need some ad campaigns, twitter posts, facebook posts, even facebook pages about the traitors. Most people are not as deep in the weeds as those of us here at the Treehouse.
The dims are not just a distraction. They are dangerous to MAGA and to the entire country. But I agree that the hidden and therefore worst danger comes from the republicans.
Dutch, Wayne said that. “McTurkey and the GOP Inc “. The greatest threat is not your vowed enemy, it’s the betrayal of “Friends”.
(G’day Dutchman. Finally a name/subscriber I recognise!)
IIRC It was McConnell who never allowed the Senate into recess!
That guy just looks crooked, doesn’t he!?!
He looks just like Pompeo and Barr, similar to the crazy democrat women, they all have a certain “look” about them.
MCCONNELL STRIKES BACK.
McConnell to step down as U.S. Senate GOP leader but take over two key chairmanships
“WASHINGTON — Kentucky Republican Sen. Mitch McConnell announced Thursday he’ll become chairman of the Defense Appropriations Subcommittee and the Rules Committee when the new Congress convenes in January.”
https://nebraskaexaminer.com/2024/11/21/dc/mcconnell-to-step-down-as-u-s-senate-gop-leader-but-take-over-two-key-chairmanships/
No China strikes back.
Rather stupid move by the deep, deep state to mention and play this mike rogers card. Contrary to what most think, Trump supporters actually are aware of who mike rogers is and what he represents. 1) deep state made a mistake to use rogers to divide or subvert the transition 2) most of Trumpies don’t read Sundance but they knew it from other sources 3) it did not make sense.
It is not a good idea to think Trump supporters are stupid.
No one knows who the fbi director will be until Trump announces it. We over think what Trump is or is not doing. That is a mistake. He is not complicated….now the deep state is complicated, dedicated, forced into a corner, mean, evil, diabolicial and dangerous.
Only issue I have is the fact that they allowed the lie/rumor to go on too long.
Now to the next skirmish.
Buckhead Barbie?
See below.
“…not a good idea to think Trump supporters are stupid”
But it helps us immensely… their arrogance is their Achilles heel.
A lot of his voters were independents and free thinkers. I think we need to make it clear to them.
Please tell me the hearsay about Buckhead Barbie as Secty of Agriculture is not true.
He’s meeting with her this afternoon.
I won’t comment till it’s “official” … then I’ll speak my mind. Isn’t she a trophy millionaire wife? Does she own a farm? Does she even water her own flowers? *zips lips*
Though the main business of USDA is 1) doling out food stamps and 2) running the Forest Service. But certainly Farm Policy gets the most media attention and now with things like bird flu APHIS is getting more attention though I think state Ag Depts need to be at the forefront.
Didn’t she jump on the Biden certification once Pelosi’s Insurrection started on J6?
yeah… you’re not going to get an answer to that unless we know both what the source is and who you mean by that name. I’m going to assume you’re expressing your emotions and don’t actually want an answer.
https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5005064-trump-kelly-loeffler-agriculture-secretary/
The Hill, for what it’s worth.
I think she should have to work on a few farms for several weeks. Get up before dawn to milk the cows, slop the pigs, feed the hens and collect the eggs, shovel the manure out of the barn….
“She had supported Trump’s effort to overturn the 2020 election results and announced she would object to the certification of the results in Congress, but voted to certify the results after the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol.”
When a legal challenge is being made about an election, it is just that. When a “news” outlet characterizes a legal process as “overturning” you know they aren’t news.
So… not a credible source.
After reading the posts and comments over the last two days, I would like to leave a note for Pres. Trump, knowing he will most likely never read it or hear of it.
If, Sir, you can’t or won’t limit the rumors as much as possible, there are people that voted for you who will view you with diminished respect, knowing the deecee rumor mill is difficult to influence. This is ridiculous to the point of absurdity. Many that read and comment here care nothing for influential bureaucratic arrogance, and we are witnessing this in almost real time. Either tell people to shut up and stop giving “anon” leaks, or get in front of it by telling us you are working on the selection of people. Thank you.
Or put a poll on truth social and let us vote on the names. Maybe we could cut thru the influence crowd
Maybe these are attempts to weed out the moles inside his circle before taking office…
Very likely.
I agree with that, Kare508 also agrees, this is the aggravating part of the entire circus.
If his transition team is any good, they should be able to find out who the leaders are and then PDJT should fire them immediately and vocally.
This is what I am talking about. Don’t announce in advance.
BREAKING: President Trump to Go Scorched Earth, Fire Jack Smith’s Entire Team of Prosecutors, Assemble a Team to Investigate 2020 Election | The Gateway Pundit | by Cristina Laila
the floating around of mike rogers as fbi head drew out the usual suspect’s in his support though, didn’t it? especially the senate repub D.S.
Whew. A welcome announcement after the selection of Bondi.
It’ll probably be a Day Two announcement if Wray is still around for the inauguration.
Wray will stay. He leads SES. Cannot be fired.
LOL. Ask James Comey
LOL at he can’t be fired. Comey would beg to differ with you.
Absolutely false. Since 1968, the director of the fbi serves at the pleasure of the president. PDJT can and should fire him on day one, if he hasn’t resigned by then.
Absolutely. Wray will be fired on or about Jan 20 and he certainly deserves to be fired.
Really?

I think Trump needs no leader for the FBI
just flush the whole mess down the Potomac.
Pam Bondi, a textbook opportunist, is a blonde version of Nikki Haley. No doubt Bondi’s priorities as the new AG will be:
A: White Supremacists
B: Antisemitism
C: Russian interference in our elections
D: World Peace
Outside of those major threats to America (sarc!) I don’t see any criminals at the DOJ, FBI and Lawfare having much to worry about!
Broken record comment, and off topic.
Not the Nikki Haley part. BTW, who appointed you as the posting police?
Dutch is spot on. Get over it.
Spot on but still self – appointed.
bull.
she’s loyal to trump.
nikki haley never was.
my preference is Ken Paxton..or Jeff Landry. deputy AG: sidney powell
this is my prayer. We need fighter…with credentials proven track records .
God Bless America
A relief. I wouldn’t urinate on Rogers if he was on fire. I had every RINO around demanding I vote for him, in here too. Not a chance. Glad Trump sees through this scumbag. McConnell will get most of his picks, obviously. But Trump knows this guy is wrong enough to never be part of any compromise or trade. A relief. I think Trump’s strategy on these picks will prove out. He’s only got a little leverage, and is using it wisely here.
Collins, Cornyn, Thune, McConnell and several other RINOS voted to confirm LORETTA LYNCH as AG!
In addition the same RINOS voted to confirm ERIC HOLDER and Merrick GARLAND as AG but they wouldn’t vote for Matt Gaetz?
WTF!!!
Good. Roger’s is a skunk.
That’s a relief.
Wray should be fitted with a standard prison orange jumpsuit. Pronto.
Chris Wray already said he’s leaving!
The layers of corruption in DC are so deep and widespread, systemic and decades-ingrained, it’s a sick-rich culture happy in its sickness. The Swamp elites on all sides even now are certain (or under the delusion) that their Kingdom of DC will never be impacted by the Will of the People, even when they see such an overwhelming majority of Americans who voted to take DC apart. Trump (and we) are fighting a worldwide machine bent on controlling us and enriching themselves at our expense. The next 4 years will be a portent of who wins.
A gentler let-down than Pompeo and Nikki Haley.
Time to give Comey a “hard look”. Perjury for one thing; he said that it is “very difficult” to get a FISA warrant. 274,000 illegal FISA warrants later….. 99% approval rate.
And there you have it! Yesterday….everybody was freaking out over this. And yet….at least for me, I had not heard anything from Trump about Rogers getting this position. Never even brought up his name. And yes….it was concerning…..but as I had shared…..do you people not TRUST the man you just elected overwhelmingly to bring America back? And now as armchair Presidents you are going to criticize his picks….when you have not experienced, been on the inside, or know anything close to what President DJT is and has been going through?
Trump is not alone. He has team. And I don’t mean the team we call his cabinet. Those we will know. I’m speaking of a team….we don’t know who or what their names are. They are extremely competent people. Some probably military, generals, intelligence officials. Those who asked Trump to run! That’s right! The team that asked Trump to run back before be did. There was always a plan!!!
And for anyone to think….there was no plan is extremely naive. This has been in the workings for probably decades. Do you really think that anyone could go up against the beast in this country alone or without a plan?
If you have any clue at all that this is a war we are in….would anyone in any war go into battle alone or without a plan? Of course not. Do you think we are just lucky? Of course not!
Do you believe in coincidences?
Nothing Can Stop What Is Coming!
And you can detect their fear!
So, who created the Rogers rumor? Is that a dim op?
I nominate Sean Hannity. The rank and file will line up behind him. I digress
When this was floated I kept thinking it reminded me of the Romney for SoS. It was never going to happen.
