This is a critically important segment of the President Trump interview with NBC. Within this segment President Trump is asked whether he would direct, encourage or seek to have Attorney General Pam Bondi or FBI Director Kash Patel target the previous administration officials.
President Trump says there would be no instruction from him to appoint a special counsel or special investigator(s) for the conduct of Joe Biden or previous administration officials. However, President Trump also takes the opportunity to note the targeting and weaponization the former Biden administration directed toward him.
SEGMENT TRANSCRIPT – KRISTEN WELKER: Ok. Let’s talk about some of your picks to fill out your administration. You named Kash Patel to be the next FBI director.
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP: Yeah.
KRISTEN WELKER: He has a list in his book of 60 people that he calls members of the so-called “deep state.” It includes Democrats like Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton. It includes former members of your cabinet, from Bill Barr to Christopher Wray. You campaigned on destroying the deep state. Do you want Kash Patel to launch investigations into people on that list?
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP: No. I mean, he’s going to do what he thinks is right. And I will —
KRISTEN WELKER: Well, do you think that’s right?
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP: — and I will —
KRISTEN WELKER: Do you think that’s right, sir?
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP: If they think that somebody was dishonest or crooked or a corrupt politician, I think he probably has an obligation to do it, but —
KRISTEN WELKER: Are you going to direct him to do it?
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP:
No. Not at all. Not at all. We have two great people that — we have him, and we have Pam. And Pam Bondi has been like a rocket ship. She’s very popular and very good and very fair. And Kash Patel is very fair. I’ll tell you. I thought Kash may be difficult because he’s, you know, a strong conservative voice, and I don’t know of anybody that’s not singing his praises. The other day, I was watching, and Trey Gowdy, who’s a moderate person and very smart and very respected in the party, he’s Kash’s biggest fan. He said, “This is the most misunderstood man in politics. He’s great.” I guess they worked together on the Russia hoax or something, and Trey Gowdy became a fan. Trey, you know, Trey Gowdy. Everybody respects him, and, you know, just like him, others also, I don’t know of one negative vote — I don’t think he’s going to have any negative votes.
KRISTEN WELKER:
Is it your expectation, though, that Kash Patel will pursue investigations against your political enemies?
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP:
No, I don’t think so.
KRISTEN WELKER:
Do you want to see that happen?
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP:
If they were crooked, if they did something wrong, if they have broken the law, probably. They went after me. You know, they went after me and I did nothing wrong.
KRISTEN WELKER:
Well, let me ask you this. You said, President Biden, quote, that you’re going to appoint a real special prosecutor to go after Joe Biden. You said that during —
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP:
Where did I say that?
KRISTEN WELKER:
— the campaign
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP:
Where?
KRISTEN WELKER:
You said that on Truth Social, June 12, 2023: “I will appoint a real special prosecutor to go after the most corrupt president in the history of the United States, Joe Biden —
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP:
Well, that part is true.
KRISTEN WELKER:
— and the entire Biden crime family.” Are you going to do that? Are you going to go after Joe Biden?
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP:
I’m really looking to make our country successful. I’m not looking to go back into the past. I’m looking to make our country successful. Retribution will be through success. If we can make our success — this country successful, that would be my greatest, that would be such a great achievement. Bring it back. We have a country now that’s overridden with crime, that has millions of people that shouldn’t be here, that should be in prisons in other countries, that should be in mental institutions. We have drug lords being dropped into our country and told never go back to their country. I’m looking to make our country great. I’m looking to get — bring prices down. Because, you know, I won on two things, the border and more than immigration. You know, they like to say immigration, I break it down more to the border, but I won on the border, and I won on groceries. Very simple word, groceries. Like almost — you know, who uses the word? I started using the word — the groceries. When you buy apples, when you buy bacon, when you buy eggs, they would double and triple the price over a short period of time, and I won an election based on that. We’re going to bring those prices way down.
KRISTEN WELKER:
I want to pause here, because what you’re saying is significant. Because you wrote on Truth
Social in 2023 that you’re going to appoint a real special prosecutor to go after Joe Biden. Now you’re saying you’re not going to do that.
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP:
I will say this, no, I’m not doing that unless I find something that I think is reasonable, but that’s not going to be my decision. That’s going to be Pam Bondi’s decision, and, to a different extent, Kash Patel, assuming they’re both there, and I think they’re both going to get approved. But I — I — you know, while you ask me that, what they’ve done to me with weaponization is a disgrace.
KRISTEN WELKER:
We’ll get to some of that, sir —
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP:
No, no, wait, wait, wait, you can’t do one without the other. In the history of our country, nothing like this has ever happened. And I’ve won these cases. I’ve won every one and the rest are in the process of being won. Deranged Jack Smith is on his way back to The Hague where he can execute people. This is where he should have stayed. I don’t — I think he’s dangerous even being there. But I’ll tell you what, what they’ve done to me in terms of weaponization, indictments, impeachments and everything else. And in the end, it probably helped, because I got the biggest vote, the most votes any Republican’s ever gotten in history.
KRISTEN WELKER:
Do — Pam Bondi talks about investigating the investigators. Do you want her to investigate Jack Smith based —
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP:
I want her to do what she wants to do.
KRISTEN WELKER:
— do you want to see Jack Smith investigated?
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP:
Well, I think he’s very corrupt, but I want her to do whatever she —
KRISTEN WELKER:
Are you going to direct her —
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP:
No, I’m not, I’m not
KRISTEN WELKER:
— to prosecute Jack Smith?
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP:
She’s a very smart person. She’s — She was a great attorney general in Florida. She’s very experienced. I want her to do what she wants to do. I’m not going to instruct her to do it, no.
KRISTEN WELKER:
Sir, are you going to fire the current FBI director, Christopher Wray, who you appointed?
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP:
Well, I can’t say I’m thrilled with him. He invaded my home. I’m suing the country over it. He invaded Mar-a-Lago. I’m very unhappy with the things he — he’s done, and crime is at an all time high. Migrants are pouring into the country that are from prisons and from mental institutions, as we’ve discussed. I can’t say I’m thrilled. I don’t want to say — I don’t want to, again, I don’t want to be Joe Biden and give you an answer and then do the exact opposite —
KRISTEN WELKER:
We’re going to talk about that —
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP:
— so I’m not going to do that. What I’m going to say is I certainly cannot be happy with him. You take a look at what’s happened. And then when I was shot in the ear, he said, “Oh, maybe it was shrapnel.” Where’s the shrapnel coming from? Is it coming from — is it coming from heaven? I don’t think so. So we need somebody to straighten — you know, I have a lot of respect for the FBI, but the FBI’s respect has gone way down over the last number of years.
KRISTEN WELKER:
Don’t you have to fire him in order to make room for Kash Patel —
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP:
Yeah, but —
KRISTEN WELKER:
— if he is, in fact, confirmed?
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP:
Well, I mean, it would sort of seem pretty obvious that if Kash gets in, he’s going to be taking somebody’s place, right? Somebody is the man that you’re talking about.


Not off to a good start on the video by Ms. Welker. “Mr. Trump told me…”
In fairness in the beginning of the segment she did say “President Elect”
Donald Trump was President AFTER Bathhouse Barry Soetoro Obama but they still call the Halfrican “President.” Show the same respect for FORMER and REELECTED PRESIDENT Trump, MS. Propaganda BELCHER….did I misspell her name?
Exactly. Not Mister. Not Hey, Buddy. Not Don. Not President-Elect. It’s Mr. President or President. I don’t know why President Trump’s Protocol officer and PR team are not hammering these dis-sihts on this point.
Probably because being protecol officers, and being competent rather than DEI hires, they actually KNOW what the established protecol IS, dating back to the founding of our Country, when “the media” was exclusively newspapers, with hand set type.
IF they wrote an article, about say,…PRESIDENT Washington, and every time they referred to him as PRESIDENT, it would use up all the P’s, and E’?’s.
So, they established a PROTECOL, that all newspapers at the time followed, and that as radio and television came on line, they continued to follow.
As sookieridge above notes, the FIRST time they refer to him as “PRESIDENT” or in this case “PRESIDENT-ELECT” and in every subsequent time, they can say “Mr. Trump” or Biden, or Obama or whatever.
And, no one who supports “the other guy” notices when they do this to the guy in office they don’t like, but then when their guy gets in, they get all offended; which is to say, many of Obamas supporters bristeled and complained, at hearing/reading him referred to as “Mr. Obama.”
I don’t know that Joe HAS any fans to complain, but if you look they followed the protecol with Joe and Obama, as well.
The “protocol” appears to be very loose / flexible / fluid – it apparently depends on who is supposedly following it versus who is the subject / target of their discussion.
Typical Demoncrap leftwing hypocrisy and doubletalk……
Blücher!

She represents the mentality that almost assassinated PDJT.
If nobody goes to prison, they will do it again to Trump and his family when they leave in 2029. Have we learned nothing?
not only that, they will be encouraged to do far worse if you can imagine that.
Unless, firstly as PDJT SAYS, some who broke the law, and committed the crime outside D.C., and that it is believed CAN actually be convicted, are.
However, consider the message sent if they are tried in DC, and Exhonerated!
On the other hand, if the truth, the whole truth of what they did, and how they did it, is thouroughly exposed, so that none can be repeating the false narratives, perhaps they will become pariahs, and no one in the future will want their fate.
I notice the top story at TGP,is a detailed story witj many citations, makinv the case that FDR KNEW Pearl Harbor was coming, and did dverything he could, to encourage it.
Funny timing that.
President Trump is so kind to give that thing an interview. Otherwise she is unwatchable.
“Mercy to the guilty is cruelty to the innocent.”
And here with this Adam Smith quote, I am referring to thousands who were targeted by a vindictive, merciless administration, continue to be targeted even in the last days of our America’s grotesque recent history with these accursed Marxists (another example of ideology which has failed each time it has been attempted), whose lives have been utterly destroyed, including the families of those like J6ers and pro life protesters.
And let’s add people who are suffering or who have passed away from the horrific, forced DoD developed bioweapon…my gosh!!
Vengeance is the Lord’s.
But someone really must get the justice ball rolling for those responsible for all of it.
Yep. Still arresting and convicting and sentencing innocent J6 defendants to prison time.
That corrupt Judge, who cant even walk, falls asleep during hearings and needs to be coached by his court clerks, deserves a jail cell.
Matthew Grave and all his staff deserve jail cells.
All the people involved in framing these people, doesnt matter who what or when, deserve jail cells. That includes members of Congress and the Senate.
The Capitol police who murdered 2 people especially.
All of them, every single one of those people deserve the switch places with the people they jailed. End of story.
Not forgetting those who couldn’t face the DC Gulag, Bob, who took a terrible way out rather than go back.
Not forgetting either those in federal prison because they object to state sponsored and taxpayer funded murder of little souls who will never have a chance to breathe God’s air. One in particular, a young mother, separated from her two precious small daughters who are too young to understand why their mother isn’t with them…four years.
Can’t tell you how much I’ve wept over each and every person persecuted or targeted by a vicious, immoral regime…
The list is long and never-ending.
I only mentioned the ones that deserve it first.
There is, as you say, some that took their own lives. The innocent have suffered greatly, in all categories, under these Communist’s SOB’s….and their Soros prosecutors.
They will all be judged by God in the end, but in the time I have left, I would love to see true justice given, to all those who participated in jailing and ruining the innocent. God will judge them harshly, if man cannot….
The laws have been selectively enforced. If not ignored, and replaced by the lawfare system, by these lowlife criminal grifters….
There arent enough jails to put all the ones who truly deserve it, at this point. Exactly, the list is very, very long, and indeed, never ending.
Almighty God continues to weave His threads, my friend. Some dark, some light. I’m sure somewhere in there are the silver threads of justice 🙏🏻
Success is the best revenge. Success will change hearts and minds. The bitter clingers will be shut down by their former followers. Angry Biden is doing everything in his power to destroy President Trumps chances with no regard to the damage to this nation and people. A sane administration would lock him up, shut him down, dose him with some Lorazepam and put him to bed until January 21st.
It’s almost like a replay of 2016.
Everybody chanting “Lock her up! Lock her up! Lock her up!”
Trump, “Nah.”
Nope, hasn’t learned a thing.
We all simply want justice. Can you do at least that?
That was a betrayal of epic proportions!
LOL, shocker, politicians exaggerate and promise things they either can’t or won’t do.
With 20 F and D rated RINOs in the Senate when only 4 are needed to nix his radical reformer cabinet nominees, he’ll simply be able to claim, “See, I tried” when they aren’t confirmed.
OMG Drumpf did a “bEtrAyAl”.
Orange Man Bad. Super Duper Bad.
😂😂😂😂 😘
Doesn’t take much to roil the waters, does it. 🤣
CALM DOWN!!! You think Trump doesn’t know this? Sheese! The knives are already out for him big time. He has to survive to make it Jan 20th. The height of insanity would be to be making tough talk about retribution and giving Biden a reason to pardon hundreds of guilty people. Sometimes I think our own side is our own worst enemy.
and ACCOUNTABILITY
“hasn’t learned a thing”
No, he knows the realities of a hopelessly corrupt system.
Along with no sense in laying out all of your cards. He may nudge Pam a bit and then we will see what happens.
Finally somebody gets it.
Thanks.
His unpredictability is one of his strengths.
100 % rehash of the last ohhhh we should have. We’re going to declassify everything when Johnny Rhatcliff gets in there it’ll get done Trey GOWDY the RAT.
“hasn’t learned a thing”
hopefully this is just hyperbole rather than true
however, as long as God still gives you presents, its not too late to repent start learning and doing what He created you to do.
Like President Trump has done and continues to do. Thank God!!!
He can’t do it, and he’s careful to not assume the *dictator* smear by saying when asked if he directly would do that. That has to come through Bondi and Patel, not him *ordering*it, and did stipulate that.
BINGO. The teeth-gnashing Rolcons upthread could not figure out PDJT’s logical ‘strategery.’
“If nobody goes to prison”
“‘When’. There is no ‘if’.” – Yoda
When people delight in doing evil do you think that they will deprive themselves for 4 years?
Whether people ie useful idiot puppets go to prison or they dont, if The System that employed them to go after “President Trump and his family” remains, “they will do it again” and far worse.
Consequently, since time and resources are limited, I prefer focusing on REMOVING the ROOT CAUSES aka The Evil System rather than on trying to jail a few people who are symptoms of The Evil System; people who will soon die off and be replaced as long as The Root Cause System still exists.
Fleeting good feels versus Real systemic changes
Discredit the false ideology, and bring sunlight go expose what they did,and who did it, so that they are a pariah, forever banned from the halls of power they so crave, and so shunned whenever in public, that they become recluses.
❤
The cackling candidate was the biggest best example of why DEI doesn’t work. She exposed the falsehood of DEI. Along the way the idiocy of entertainment media figures was exposed. The true regard that they and the Democrats actually have for the American people exposed – who even cares if they recover? I don’t. They’ll have to send themselves to ideological rehab if they want to understand and they’re all saying no no no. Let’s just leave them in the dust. Move on – too much to do.
Really? Do you think just a FEW people need to be jailed? Considering only J6, how many corrupt capital police were involved… congressmen… FBI / government agents… judges… prosecutors… the entire J6 committee? No consequences for anyone for murder, for destroying so many people’s lives?
How do you remove the root causes of the evil system if everyone involved gets a pass? Maybe just hold some hearings?
How?
Stay tuned to find out.
And while waiting to find out, help President Trump out like Scot Pressler is doing ie by daily real world, winning upcoming primary election battles focused, DOING.
Or don’t.
You mean Scott Presler, right?
If justice remains undone then it will all be in vain.
“Rule of Law demands”
Before the “Rule of Law” can make any “demand” it has to actually to exist again.
Right now, it does not.
Hence why PDJT is FOCUSED on restoring The Legal System so the “Rule of Law” is REAL Again rather than just empty and fake words.
When in a catastrophic emergency like this thankfully our leader deciders, like PDJT, are obviously deciding what to do and when based on cost/benefit analysis plus Triage Decision Making experience rather than on well meaning but tragically misguided feels
Bless your patience. Gotta go do dishes.
Watching Newsmax program about assault on PDJT and US by Biden admin, Dems, and RINOS, Pres Trump better go after these communist criminals.
Who is we?
Poor dear
Gilded Glenda apparently forgot that neither the Wizard of Oz Fraud or any of The Winged Monkeys were hanged.
However, one Wicked Witch WAS accidentally melted by a bucket of water.
I hope you write President Trump a short, passionate letter and tell him just that.
That woman is insufferable! And incredibly RUDE!
Welker
She doesn’t ask open ended questions… why did you pick Patel, what are your expectations…. Instead she frames a narrative: are you going to investigate your political enemies, are you going to go after Biden, etc. She asks questions repeatedly.
Trump is too shrewd to fall for it.
Why didn’t Biden get asked these questions? All he knows is what flavor ice cream he likes!
And that works in President Trump’s favor as the viewers once again see how he is treated by the mockingbird media. It just reinforces the unfairness’s he has endured over the last 9 years.
And he will keep enduring if he doesn’t do something!
“if he doesn’t do something”
This is a TEAM Effort, not a make believe movie about a super hero saving the day while people watch, munch popcorn and slurp soda.
Consequently, “he” == thee, me and everybody, NOT just PÐJT
This right here! Couldn’t agree more.
We the People are going to need quite a few more “Walter Mitty” types getting up out of their “D-Box” surround sound seats.
That is if We the People are going to get the government, and the World, that we believe is our Natural God given rights.
Oh, but he is. Many don’t like unfair treatment, rudeness and bullying. President Trump is adding more adherents to the MAGA cause by allowing these hateful people to demonstrate their contempt for our American ideals as embodied by President Trump.
That woman has insanity in her eyes. Totally bat sh*t crazy.
TDS
glad you notice it too…she is sooooooooo sick T D S …those eyes…
Kristen has been conditioned to ignore polite decorum and facts.
There’s several new young ones like her. They are disgustingly offensive. Not watchable.
Bet they got no man either 🤪
President Trump will not direct.
We the People will demand.
Optics.
NCSWIC
It won’t be retribution. He knows they will continue to commit crimes for which he cannot stop the DOJ from going after. I think that’s the point.
Exactly Right!
I think he was too smart to fall for the retribution word they love.
He didn’t say if they committed a crime they shouldn’t be punished, he actually intimated they should.
That is not retribution , that is paying for your crimes.
It’s not retribution…it’s restoration. Restoration of the rule of law !!
Correct
It is not retribution when people are held accountable for the crimes they themselves have committed.
Thanks yet again!
So many people here today purposefully pretending he’s saying something else.
Yeah sure…PDJT is going to tell that insufferable dweeb his plans.
Has Fauci committed crimes? And if he has, should he be investigated. Is omission a crime, how about hiding the Hunter Biden laptop and claiming it was Russian disinformation. Withholding evidence is that a crime? I don’t expect Pam Bondi or cash Patel to chase the ghost of crimes that weren’t committed. But I know as well as cash Patel and Pam Bondi that they know where the bodies are buried. I don’t wanna be led to the cemetery and left at the gate. If crimes were committed against the state against individuals, then these crimes need to be tried in a court of law And let the verdict fall where they may.
President Trump is so right about groceries. I was in the checkout line at my local supermarket yesterday, and I said to the clerk that I couldn’t afford to bake cookies for my friends anymore. I calculated the cost of the ingredients for one batch of 24 chocolate chip cookies at about $20. The chocolate chips were $6.99, chopped walnuts 1/2 bag about the same. Then the butter, sugar, eggs, flour, vanilla. It is all priced sky high now.
Paul, yes the list price for all those items is high. But if you watch for sales they are a lot less. Especially at this time of year. I never pay full price for them because I know what I use and plan ahead.
Me, too. I use Southern Savers and Flipp to find the best prices each week.
I remember when eggs were 50 cents a dozen at the store under Trump, now they are over $5 a dozen…. Almost Everything has doubled and tripled in price….. water has doubled, cheese doubled, butter doubled, etc. The Biden regime is trying to starve everyone, except themselves…. they just print more monopoly money for the crime family.
I spent 100 bucks, for literally 3 bags of grocery’s.
And I live alone these days, just me and my dog.
Its criminal, what the left, the globalists and their ilk have done to the world!!
I bought a dozen of jumbo eggs Friday for $6.93/dozen. Sure glad I don’t have 5 kids to feed.
When will GOP elected people learn to stay off the network news shows? There is no up side to these appearances.
The upside is that it forces the hyenas to get off their talking points. The comment about groceries sums it up nicely.
Everyone knows, including my 12 year old what stuff cost in 2020 and what it cost in 2024.
Getting it said on the MSM forces the conversation and reveals them for the manipulating conniving wolves they truly are
“There is no up side to these appearances.”
President Trump took the opportunity to note the targeting
and weaponization the former Biden administration directed toward him.
Clips of this interview are trending on twitter.
Trump is doing his part to help his cabinet picks.
Sundance posted this interview because everyone should see it.
And you think the CNN viewers watched, or even care what he said?
The laughable few brainwashed bots who STILL watch CNN at this date are certifiably beyond hope, so we should not be concerned WHAT they think.
They probably worship Welker and sit there whooping and hollering and keeping score. Then one day the 12 year old kid will ask mom or dad a question that will put them in a spin. And then they will wake up. Might take years.
Wondering how PT could be so unaware and making such a colossal mistake with Bondi? … Maybe some kind of back deal being cut … Or just plain bad advice from his family and team ?
“Wondering how PT could be so unaware and making such a colossal mistake with Bondi?”
Trump is doing his part to help his cabinet picks.
He trusts her to support him.
Not complicated.
Yeah, he trusted Jeff Sessions too
Sessions was weak, and so is Bondi. Did you see her run away from BLM? It was embarrassing! She’s a sneaky little coward!
Typically, armchair accusations == confessions and/or emotionally manipulative worf bait designed to hook those without enough psywar savvy or spiritual maturity.
2017 =/= 2024
Were in a very real,win or lose everything, war.
As the war progresses, battle field conditions change. Missions, strategies and tactics change.
Sessions was, for MANY reasons, the best pick in 2017.
2017 =/= 2024
Some choose to be, for whatever reason, backward gazing whiners and armchair critics.
However some =/= all
Fortunately, there are also winners, like President Trump and his grassroots, real life, supporters, who are focused on DOING what they can with each moment theyre given right NOW to help create victory in the future
There will be investigations of the J6 arrest otherwise it would look like PT pardons would be as corrupt as Biden’s pardons. J6ers must be exonerated in order for them to get their reputations back.
4D chess… LOL!
Orange Man “Unaware”.
Dumb, Dumb Drumpf Makes ” Colossal Mistake”. Again.
Source: an armchair who STILL believes, after 9+ years, that they’re an I-Know-Better who’s more intelligent,aware and strategically savvy than President Donald J Trump?
Didn’t he write a book called “The Art of the Deal”?
Yes but one has to be able to read books and comprehend the contents to know the significance of that. Seems a lot of folks know only what is said on their smartphone social media apps or on TV.
Trump has stated many times that he wants himself and his administration to do everything lawfully. Retribution for retribution’s sake is a democrat tool of intimidation. Trump has also stated if they broke the law they should face the consequences for this. IMO one of Trump’s goals is to dismantle the current two tiered justice system we have to where every US citizen is treated equally under the law. This is what the NBC hack either can’t understand or won’t accept. Under FJB they were his mouthpiece and therefore untouchable, but with Trumps’ return they are scared and can see justice heading their way or at the very least they will no longer be used for propaganda. Their importance vanishes.
Use the Kenyan’s term > “by the book”!
Insufferable woman.
If you get hit, it is your own fault. Bart and Lisa Simpson go at it.
BS….pardon or not, since they violated the civil and constitutional rights of millions of Americans we do NOT honor any pardon from dementia joe since they wouldn’t and won’t honor Trumps. These people are our sworn enemies and you eradicate them like frigging rodents….
I’d like to see the Hollywood and msm kabal split into 1000 pieces.
Everytime.
President Trump will not tip his hand to Pravda. The lawbreakers will be exposed to the American people. Let the chips fall where they may.
Most will be done in by their own hand. They can’t help themselves.
“I’m not going to direct them to do it” does not mean it’s not going to happen!
Exactly!!
Do you see Hillary in jail?
“Do you see Hillary in jail”
Thanks for asking.
Answer, yes.
Et tu?
It’s pretty straighforward—the president can’t order political opponents to be targeted, simply on that basis. But Bondi and Patel can, and he alluded to that. All lawful and above board.
The president can do anything he wants. Custom dictates he doesn’t, though.
Old Donald and his big time liberal buddies sure didn’t take long to stick us long time died in the wool MAGA supporters that began to work as hard as we could to right the wrongs that the regime heaped on him in 2020 from the day he left DC on that sad Jan. morning. Now he wants us to kiss and make up with the commies and Marxists. And oh by the way, wrap all our lips up on Best Buddy s BIBI s arse and help him to become the worlds best war criminal. Were screwed.
Huh?
He isn’t even at the WH yet and how you got all of that from this one interview is beyond me….
Troll e troll, trolling, is all……
How is Bibi a war criminal? Please do explain.
” sniff sniff ”
Oh, so you can read his mind now?
You dont see the words he said. Very obvious you are a doomer, perhaps just the type that loves to take shots at him, before he is even in power….
You Doom trolls are sad.
Doom harder….
TROLL
OMG. “Old Donald and his long time liberal buddies” bEtrAyEd “us”.
” us” == “us long time died in the wool MAGA supporters”
😂😂😂
Notice the sly way DJT’s name is replaced with the generic word MAGA?
Pretending to be like ones prey == a common psywar tactic when running an infiltration op that’s referred to as “wolves wearing sheep’s clothing word camo.
Hopefully, infiltrator predators will need better word camo than this if they want to successfully prey on CTH readers.
Ha ha!
I usually just post “nice try” as response to this sort of thing, but you went the extra mile…
Bill Todd? More like we todd.
Miss Bug Eye interrogator from NBC tries her hardest to make news, asks questions slanted against Trump in every direction and yet this man, Donald Trump just looks at her and wonders “why she’s such a dummy” as he crafts his answers.
The gist of most of these interviews appears to me to be getting the President to promise not to go after those who wanted him dead…one way or the other.
Ain’t guilt a wonderful thing!
I don’t know why he even talks to people like this.
So much for the idea that we won’t see the corrupt Pam Bondi as Attorney General.
What a disgrace to our once great nation.
There is this: once confirmed to a position by the Senate, a person can be moved to another position without needing to be confirmed again. Then the Deputy Attorney General becomes the Acting Attorney General, for example. It could happen.
🎯
Yeah, Trump was going to lock her up, but being a FLOTUS and all……
I was pretty darn disappointed over that one.
Personally, “I was” NOT “pretty darn disappointed over that one”. In fact, I was delighted and relieved when I learned PDJT would not be trying to comply with this Veruka Salt demand
She was and still is a criminal – an unprosecuted criminal. From Comey’s own lips.
Others will, no doubt, cherry pick President Trump’s responses to questions.
MAGAs should not do it.
It is clear that if the law is broken, he expects the criminals to be prosecuted …… he doesn’t have to spell that out for every law that has been broken over the past 10 years that the media can come up with to try to get a “gotcha” out of it.
Promises made, promises kept ……… he set the standard for that.
She is an insufferable hack. Compare this to the scripted nonsense she did with Kamala and Diaper Joe, actively covering up for their incompetence.
Trump is competent and successful, so Welker hates his guts because she cannot control him by making him look bad.
Justice IS NOT retribution….
NO MERCY!
Justice without mercy ==
NO JUSTICE!
Mercy comes after the trial, if relevant.
no..sometimes Justice needs NO MERCY in order to persuade future criminals to think real hard….
this time EXAMPLES are needed….therefore
NO MERCY!
If the famous Animal House gif doesn’t get approved, here is my comment without it.
And all of the J6 political prisoners and everyone else screwed over by the Obama-Biden DoJ/FBI said to
Donald..Rodney King “Can’t we all just get along” Trump in unison:“Thank you, Sir, may I have another?”
I am gutted by the lack of retribution, gutted.
#batteredMAGAsyndrome
People aren’t connecting the dots:
JFK stole the 1960 election from Nixon but Nixon refused to press the issue.
Deep state killed JFK, RFK, and MLK.
Deep state did the lawfare gambit on Nixon.
Deep state and Clinton did Trump lawfare gambit (which they did on Nixon!).
Deep state rigged the 2020 election (like they did in 1960).
Deep state tried to kill Trump (like they sucessfully did 3 times in the 60’s).
What is the common thread? NO PUNISHMENT
He didn’t say that there wouldn’t be justice…. he said if there was criminality it would be prosecuted. He just didn’t kowtow to the commie questioner’s depiction of what he would do.
He said he would not seek retribution against his political enemies. But he also said if they have done something wrong the newly cleaned up DOJ will prosecute those who violate the law. In other words, he is not going after them because of politics, he is going after them because they are crooked. An important difference.
Personally, I want retribution and revenge for what these jokers have done to my country. But I will settle for justice.
you did miss MALCOM X…
Difference now….there will be a very loud public outcry.
“#batteredMAGAsyndrome”
helps explain the emotionally triggered, OMG “I am gutted” reaction.
these emotional reactions, like booze, shut down the parts of the brain that are needed to logically analyze NEW information. which means reverting to the”battered” pasts screwed up thoughts and feels rather than being TRULY PRESENT and reacting to what President Trump ACTUALLY said and meant.
Bottom line. “NO PUNISHMENT” for Battereds. Only Light Hearted Love inspired words and prayers.
Hardest hit: Bannon and the War Room
If so, GOOD.
Hopefully only one wake-up-and-savvy-up “hit” will be needed.
Retribution is an evil little word.
I’m grateful that He isn’t using it.
Why speak the language of losers.
Exodus 21:24 “an eye for an eye.”
The law of Moses was not retribution.
Exodus == Old Testament
Since then, the New Testament was added although some reject the NT additive n to The Story.
“an eye for an eye” == everyone’s bloody and blind
Instead everyone pretends.
Old Testament eye for an eye – measure for measure
payback
reprisal
retaliation
retribution
revenge
tit for tat
tooth for a tooth
vengeance
vindication
retribution
“Lower court” more evil and corruption
Justice is what is due – for those who have done committed crimes, violated laws, did harm to innocent Americans whom they serve. These will be prosecuted by the incoming DOJ (that’s their job) – unlike the former which had been weaponized, who wronged Americans unlawfully.
Divine justice is for all : those who enact punishments from “lower courts” as will those who follow divine laws of mercy and justice.
God offers His mercy before he metes Justice. Justice and mercy are not at odds. They go hand-in-hand when we do right by others (justice). God is even more impressed and glorified when we show mercy to others.
There will be jail time and other just punishments. Pardons have nothing to do with this. Any mercy shown will be after whatever fits the crime are decided upon.
Walker is insufferable.
Kristen Welker is such a toad. 🤮
Joe Biden’s pure as the driven snow; Trump’s a monster in her mind. Only a mind-numbed soulless fool would interview PDJT they way she did.
Those Republican politicians who do not appreciate loyalty to the country will do all they can to subvert the President.
I fear that President Trump is not always discerning when it comes to fake support by lawyer politicians.
That bitch makes my blood boil!!!!!!!
Seeking a pre-emptive pardon for her criminal associates, Welker tries to frame it all as personal revenge by the President–you know, the guy they tried to murder with a bullet to the brain on live TV.
Yes, President Trump was personally targeted in a way we’ve never seen before.
But these were also Constitutional Crimes committed AGAINST THE AMERICAN PEOPLE .
These Gangsters stole our Sacred Right to Govern Ourselves. That’s Tyranny.
They sold us out to Foreign Nations and Cabals. That’s Treason.
They overthrew the governments and officials we duly-elected. That’s Sedition.
They conspired to burn down our Cities. That’s Rebellion.
They censored anyone who dissented. That’s Conspiracy Against Rights.
They have sponsored an Invasion. That’s an Act of War.
And they invented and deployed a Bio-Weapon on us, and then forced another Genetic Weapon on us as the “cure”. Those are Genocidal Crimes Against Humanity.
THERE MUST BE PROSECUTIONS OF THESE MONSTERS. ANYTHING LESS IS DERELICTION OF DUTY. NOT VENGEANCE, BUT JUSTICE.
To secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among men.
Proverbs 31:7-9
8
Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves;
ensure justice for those being crushed.
9
Yes, speak up for the poor and helpless,
and see that they get justice.
Yes, Lord!
They’re going to choose sunlight and exposure. And if in the process of that they discover crimes, they’ll act.
Unfortunately, the cabal is like the Japanese soldiers in Ww2 buried in tunnels and spider holes. Yes, they lost, but they still killed a lot of people.
Yes, success it our revenge. But this isn’t about revenge. This is about making sure these Lawfare terrorists can never do this again.
Otherwise, they’re just going to reemerge from under their rocks in 2027 and pick up where they left off.
The trial process produces the sunlight.
KW is unbearable so TY for transcripts.
President Trump wants to distance himself so that it does not look like revenge but I think he knows his DOJ and FBI will do the appropriate investigations.
I almost expected Welker to throw a fit because the president elect wouldn’t say what she wanted.
Good job Mr President but, respectfully, this issue is about getting back to the rule of law. If any of these people NBC mentions broke the law, then yes, he should direct his appointees to conform with the law. Then go into why people voted for a return to fairness and justice. If NBC, a failing news source wants to call it something else, go ahead, lose some more viewers.
if nobody is prosecuted for the fraud in 2020, it will prove my point that this government is corrupt to the point of not being salvageable. rigged elections for the lesser of two evils is not a solution.
If “they’ve” done nothing illegal, then “they’ve” got nothing to fear. Simple answer.
yes, but they know that Trump and his associates like Bannon and Navarro, et al, did nothing illegal, but they were persecuted through fabricated prosecutions, like Trump. So what they did WAS illegal, and they dear justice, but frame it as the loaded word, ‘retribution’.
So what’s the point? Business as usual?
President Trump is not gonna tip his hand to these presstitutes. Remember before he became president in 2016 Trump criticized the Obama regime for shouting out loud their military plans regarding ISIS, detailing what, when and where.
He’s not yet president and the Deep State is the enemy within, much more dangerous than any power out there. Trump is wiser than even some here give him credit.
They tried to kill him, twice.
Democrats and RINOs that acted illegally and committed crimes must be held accountable. They must go to jail. Democrats and RINOs can no longer go without penalties.
Amazing (sickening?) that anyone accepts this marxist beyotch as a credible arbiter of things like integrity.
Great program on Newsmax right now showing coordinated attack on PDJT and US by Biden Admin, Dems and RINOS. WATCH!!!
Welker and her masters are like psychopathic teenagers. They try to shoot you in the head, then scowl and spit and demand that you not punish them when they’re caught. No, Kristen, don’t worry. Everything’s gonna be A-OK. Nobody flee the country now, okay? Everything’s cool.
See you in 2025.
I’m hoping for the best and expecting the worst
that way I’m not disappointed.
same old same old
money rules
So much better than many visitors here who always seem to be hoping for the worst.
No retribution – GREAT but the shi* they pull on us the citizens is OK. What BS!
I want retribution for my dead grandma.
Trump, a skilled CEO, will delegate authority to trusted subordinates. One assumes he will act on any real evidence those folks bring to his desk.
OK…so instead of the word retribution let’s call it revenge…
If not, these people are waiting in the weeds like snakes ready to strike again…
