The Trump White House

[Rewind]

On January 20, 2025, Donald Trump – thanks to Retrumplicans regaining control of the House and Senate and the Supreme Court granting him Presidential immunity – will become a king and a dictator with no one to oppose him. He plans to deport 11,000,000 undocumented immigrants; abolish the Department of Education; roll black clean-air, clean-water and fuel-efficiency standards, pull the United States out of NATO and the Paris Climate Accord; impose tariffs that Americans will wind up paying for; and use the Department of Justice to go after his perceived enemies.

Donald Trump does not care about experience or qualifications. His only criterion for his Cabinet members, officers, aides and advisers is loyalty – or, as former National Security Advisor John Bolton put it, "fealty," referring to the swearing of unwavering allegiance to a feudal lord or leader.

J.D. Vance, Trump's Vice President, is opposed to abortion, gay rights, same-sex marriage and American military aid to Ukraine. He referred to women without children as "childless cat ladies" and claimed Haitian immigrants are stealing people's dogs and cats and eating them.

Trump wants Matt Gaetz, who has often called the Department of Justice "weaponized" and "politicized," to be Attorney General. Trump wants Fox television host Pete Hegseth to be Secretary of Defense. Trump has chosen Kremlin apologist Tulsi Gabbard to be director of intelligence. Trump has picked anti-vaxxer and conspiracy theorist Robert Kennedy Jr. to head the Department of Health & Human Services. Trump has chosen multi-billionaire Elon Musk and Roivant Sciences healthcare company founder Vivek Ramaswamy to head his proposed Department Of Government Efficiency.

Trump has named Tom Homan, a former border patrol agent and acting director of Immigration & Customs Enforcement, as his "border czar." Homan will implement Trump's plans for "mass deportations." He will conduct "workplace raids" and round up undocumented workers. He vowed that families will not be separated. If an undocumented immigrant is married to a United States citizen, he will deport them both. Of course that is not legal – but Trump will not care.

Trump wants John Ratcliffe, former Director of National Intelligence, to head the Central Intelligence Agency. In 2016, Vladimir Putin set up "troll farms" to ensure Trump got elected President. Russians created thousands of phony accounts on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and other social media sites and posted pro-Trump, anti-Clinton propaganda. Eighteen United States intelligence agencies unanimously concluded that Russia interfered in our Presidential election. Trump, Putin's number-one fan, rejected the findings, declaring, "Putin said he didn't do it and I believe him." Ratcliffe sided with Trump.

The world is bracing for the reign of King Donald the First.

I think Trump will also try to make big cuts to Medicare, Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act and ban insurance companies from paying for contraceptives and transgender surgery.

One of Donald Trump's mantras – along with "Make America hate again" and "Make America white again" – is "Drill, baby, drill!" Trump believes global warming is a hoax and he wants the United States to become dependent upon coal and fossil fuels. Trump will weaken the Environmental Protection Agency (and possibly move it out of Washington DC), repeal environmental regulations, abolish clean-energy tax credits and open up federal lands to oil drilling. For Energy secretary, Trump picked someone who will help lead our nation out of the 21st century and back to 1840.

The mission of the Department of Defense, according to its website, is "to provide the military forces needed to deter war and ensure our nation's security." President Trump will change that. Their new mission will be to serve him and obey him and help him carry out his plan to depoort 11,000,000 immigrants.

Matt Gaetz attended several sex parties between 2017 and 2020. He made huge payments via Venmo to at least two women he had sex with. One was a minor. The Justice Department investigated but no charges were filed. Donald Trump, who bragged about being able to kiss women and grab them by the p***y because he's a "star," and who made hush-money payments to Stormy Daniels to keep the details of their affair private, sees nothing wrong with the sexual abuse of women – so he nominated Gaetz for Attorney General..

"Vengeance is mine," says Donald Trump. "I will repay." Under King Donald the First, the Department of Justice will no longer serve the American people. It will serve Trump – and Trump alone.

Trump will fire Jack Smith’s lawyers and use DOJ to investigate 2020 election
The Independent, Nov 23 2024 4:05 GMT

President-elect Donald Trump is reportedly set to attempt to fire the attorneys who worked with Special Counsel Jack Smith investigating the former President for his alleged mishandling of classified documents and for his connection to the Capitol riot. Those affected are likely to include career professionals usually shielded from such revenge efforts, according to The Washington Post. Trump is also set to put together groups to look for evidence that the 2020 election was riddled with fraud.

Pam Bondi served as Attorney General of Florida, 2011-19, and was the lead attorney general in an unsuccessful lawsuit seeking to overturn the Affordable Care Act. She was one of Trump's defense attorneys during his first impeachment trial. She claimed there was "cheating" in the 2020 Presidential election and insisted Trump was the true winner. She is blindly loyal to Trump – and she is Trump's new choice for Attorney General of the United States.Blind loyalty is the only qualification Trump cares about.

When Trump was elected Presidfent in 2016, he said he would surround himself with "the finest people." He lied. Many of his aides, advisers and associates – including Rudy Giuliani, Roger Stone, Michael Flynn, Michael Cohen, Peter Navarro, Paul Manafort, Rick Gates, Steve Bannon, Allen Weisselberg and George Papadopoulos – were convicted of various crimes including fraud, perjury, obstruction of justice, lying to Congress and lying to the FBI and sentenced to prison. Matt Gaetz, J.D. Vance, Elon Musk, Pete Hegseth, Pam Bondi, Tom Homan, John Ratcliffe, Linda McMahon and Robert Kennedy Jr. – among others – are proof that in 2024 Trump still is unable to surround himself with "the finest people."

Donald Trump is anti-Black, anti-Latino, anti-Muslim and anti-immigrant. One of his long-standing goals is to "Make America white again" – and in January when he becomes King Donald the First, he will have a blindly loyal ally to carry out his planned "mass deportations." .

In 2018 and 2019, President Trump imposed huge tariffs on imports. He said China, Mexico and Canada would pay for them. He lied. The Tax Foundation estimated that the tariffs cost American consumers nearly $80 billion in the form of higher prices. Trump plans to impose more tariffs on his first day in office – and, same as last time, Americans will wind up paying for them.

Trump said he'll impose additional tariffs of up to 25% on imports from Mexico, Canada and China. Here's what the US buys from them the most.
