Facing brutal opposition from John Thune, Mitch McConnell and the DeceptiCON coalition in the U.S. Senate, former Congressman Matt Gaetz has withdrawn his name from consideration for the U.S. Attorney General position.

Appearing on C-SPAN, Wyoming Representative Harriet Hageman outlines the reason she supports the nomination of Matt Gaetz for U.S. Attorney General.
Additionally, Rep Hageman gives a strong outline of the activity within the DOJ, FBI and DHS over the past few years, as the background of her support for President Trump to return to Washington DC and target the corrupt institutional activity. The first 8 minutes are quite impressive. WATCH:

Following the first 8 minutes, Harriet Hageman responds to the protestations by Michael Bromwich, the former seriously corrupt DOJ-NSD official who represented Brett Kavanaugh’s accuser, Christine Blasey-Ford.
In order to appropriately discuss leadership of the FBI silo as an institution of DC influence, it becomes very important for everyone to understand the current status of the FBI as the organization has self-identified.
For those who followed the 2016 campaign of President Trump and then watched the 2017 attacks organized by the DOJ and FBI toward the incoming Trump administration, you may agree with me that a complete disassembly of the FBI is now warranted. I will walk through the process, but first it is important to understand just how bad the corruption has become:
RECAP: The FBI relationship with Antifa. There is no way for Antifa to operate as a domestic extremist group, without the expressed support and willful blindness of the FBI. Quite simply, if the FBI wanted to stop the violent and extremist activity of Antifa, they could do that easily.
The objective of the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago was to resecure what they perceived as physical evidence President Trump controlled showing how the DOJ and FBI action in 2016 was targeting him using the power of their law enforcement and intelligence agencies. In the background, the origination of all the DOJ/FBI/IC targeting goes back to the ’15/’16 FBI exploitation of the NSA database; this is not a contested discussion issue – it’s just continually forgotten.
The FBI was using their access to the NSA metadata of all Americans, to conduct surveillance on political candidates that might be a threat to the power structures that exploited the secrets within the electronic records of all Americans. The FBI was, almost certainly still is, conducting domestic surveillance and tracking Americans just like the German Stasi or Soviet KGB. It’s still happening, but we are not supposed to talk about it, or something.
The raid on Mar-a-Lago, just like the Robert Mueller investigation, was part of a long standing coverup operation. The FBI was looking for what Trump took with him as evidence of the weaponized system that targeted him. The FBI wanted that back. The FBI was willing to use deadly force to get it back if that’s what it took.
Oh, it’s those infamous “hackers” again, only this time they are not Iranian or Chinese, this time it is a mysterious “hacker” under the presumably fictitious name Altam Beezly, who has intruded into the files of a civil lawsuit filed by lawyers representing a Florida businessman tangentially tied to accusations against Attorney General nominee, Matt Gaetz.
As the story is told, “according to a person with knowledge of the activity,” there is transcript testimony from a woman who claims to have had sex with Matt Gaetz when she was 17-years-old. The DOJ previously looked into the accusations and never went further.
New York Times – […] The file of 24 exhibits is said to include sworn testimony by a woman who said that she had sex with Mr. Gaetz in 2017 when she was 17, as well as corroborating testimony by a second woman who said that she witnessed the encounter.
The information was downloaded by a person using the name Altam Beezley at 1:23 p.m. on Monday, according to the person, who was not authorized to speak publicly. A lawyer connected to the case sent an email to the address associated with Altam Beezley, only to be informed in an automated reply that the recipient does not exist.
The material does not appear to have been made public by the hacker. (read more)
Which begs the question, if the material has not been made public then how does the New York Times have any awareness of it?
The “Big Ugly” was always a description of the battle that few understood. You cannot be betrayed by your enemies; that happens when your allies reveal themselves against your interests. Majority Leader John Thune will play his cards carefully in order to extract maximum damage.
The Senate is factually the core of republican opposition to MAGA and President Trump. The visible battle against Obama, Biden, Harris and the professional political left, always consumes the most attention. However, it is the less-visible battle against the entrenched ideological republicans that proves to be the hardest.
The Republicans in the upper chamber will not relinquish power easily. They have a multitude of weapons to use against the insurgency of President Trump supporters. We are seeing this play out now in the alignment of Republican Senators who stand in opposition to President Trump’s nomination of Matt Gaetz as U.S. Attorney General, and this recent report aligns with exactly the type of move we would expect.
The basic outline is that senate leadership will reluctantly support Matt Gaetz for Main Justice, where ‘support’ means they will not directly oppose; in exchange for the nomination of FBI Director Mike Rogers to defend their interests at FBI.
This is the typical type of deal the DeceptiCons are well known for.
Thune and McConnell (in background) have yet to reveal who they have planned to place in the chair positions of multiple committees. We are very interested to see who chairs the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence because that mutually dependent relationship is the core of the IC influence in the legislative branch. The same may be said for the chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, and ultimately the Gaetz nomination.
This recent report aligns with information we have received from the senate staff offices who are discussing the Gaetz nomination. Thune would not make such a proposal openly, for obvious reasons, but intermediaries would relay the message between the upper chamber and the transition team.
There is a lot going on in the background of the Gaetz nomination that I will get too shortly, much of the information from dozens of phone calls yesterday. In the interim, here is an outcome of YOUR pressure in combination with the Truth Social message from President Donald Trump.
Oklahoma Senator Markwayne Mullin has reversed his position. He will now support Matt Gaetz for U.S. Attorney General. WATCH:
🚨BREAKING: Sen. Markwayne Mullin will vote to confirm Gaetz as AG:

Senator Mullin was part of the strong opposition group to Gaetz. The public pressure is working. Keep sending them messages that we demand support. Great Job!
Jeff Clark has some keen insight into the strategy of how to confront the Lawfare operation within Main Justice, as well as how President Trump can navigate the process of ‘recess appointments’ against the likelihood of a reluctant Senate confirmation process. {Direct Rumble Link}. WATCH:
.
According to NBC, DOJ Lawfare operatives and FBI agents within the corrupt and weaponized silos, are calling their friends for legal assistance and protection against investigations of their past activity.
It is easy to see how DOJ-NSD officials would be worried, particularly given the nature of how Deputy AG Lisa Monaco organized them over the past four years to continue Lawfare efforts against President Trump. Perhaps one name, Mary McCord, should be concerned a little more than most.
Additionally, the FBI agents who participated in the witch hunts against President Trump and his allies are also concerned. Both groups now reaching out to lawyers proactively evaluating their risk against the backdrop of demonstrably corrupt and illegal activity.
In short, the article outlines how they were nervous before, but they are extremely worried now that Matt Gaetz has been nominated as Attorney General. Many of them planning to exit quickly and take a low-profile position.

WASHINGTON DC – Multiple current and former senior Justice Department and FBI officials have begun reaching out to lawyers in anticipation of being criminally investigated by the Trump administration, according to three people with knowledge of their deliberations.
There’s no doubt Missouri Senator Eric Schmitt is supporting President Trump’s nominees, Schmitt says “yes, I will,” full stop. Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville is a little less optimistic, but still in favor of supporting President Trump’s nominees.
Tuberville says the issues within the GOP Senate need to be worked out between their opening session on January 5th and the inauguration of President Trump on January 20th. The GOP needs to hammer out their positions during that timeline, then shut up and support the President.
The conversation then moves to the specific support for Matt Gaetz, both MAGA senators Schmitt and Tuberville say they will support Gaetz for the reasons of confronting the weaponization of Main Justice. Former AG from Missouri, Senator Schmitt shows why he would be an excellent nominee to confront the Deep State in any role, he rightly notes his previous lawsuits against the Biden administration. WATCH:

MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell just didn’t know what to do with Republican Senator from Tennessee Bill Hagerty, after he outlined all the motives and justifications for President Trump to appoint Matt Gaetz for U.S. Attorney General.
Senator Hagerty cites examples of the Main Justice targeting of President Trump from the 2016 campaign all the way through the IC manipulation of the Hunter Biden laptop story in 2020, to the continued use of Lawfare to target President Trump throughout 2024. Of course, that background makes the appointment of Matt Gaetz understandable. WATCH:
.
The Democrats destroyed political norms, weaponized agencies and violated the law. The Democrats will now face the consequences.
Accordingly, President Trump has provided a bold litmus test for Republicans in the Senate, they are either with the American people or they stand in the sunlight of a transparent and intentional disconnect. (more…)
