SWAMP DRAIN: Reince Priebus Given The Boot As President Trump Names Gen. John Kelly As Chief Of Staff

Reince Priebus lost his job just hours after the president’s signature drive to repeal his predecessor’s health care program collapsed on the Senate floor.

Reince Priebus, the establishment Republican-turned-loyalist to President Trump who served as his White House chief of staff for the last six months, was pushed out on Friday in the latest convulsion in a chaos-wracked West Wing to which he had repeatedly failed to bring some semblance of order.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Now that President Trump has put Anthony Scaramucci into his administration, heads are starting to roll. And it’s long overdue. There are many snakes in Trump’s apple barrels, and the two-faced Reince Priebus is one of them. Umm, make that was one of them. Good job, Mooch, keep it up. Many more creatures in the swamp that need letting out. 

Convinced that Mr. Priebus was not strong enough, Mr. Trump has been talking about bringing in “a general” as chief of staff and chose John F. Kelly, the retired Marine four-star general serving as secretary of homeland security. But some of his advisers oppose that idea, arguing that Mr. Trump needs someone more in tune with the nationalist political movement that helped propel him to the White House.

Mr. Priebus, a former chairman of the Republican National Committee, lost his job just hours after the president’s signature drive to repeal his predecessor’s health care program collapsed on the Senate floor and a day after an ugly feud with the new communications director erupted in a public airing of the deep animosities plaguing the White House.

The announcement capped a fraught 24 hours in which the president’s advisers waited for a change they had long anticipated. Mr. Priebus accompanied Mr. Trump on Air Force One for a day trip to Long Island as his fate was being decided. Making for a tense flight, his rival, Anthony Scaramucci, the communications director who had publicly vowed to force Mr. Priebus’s resignation, was also on the plane and in the motorcade.

In barely half a year on the job, Mr. Priebus never won the full confidence of the president nor was granted the authority to impose a working organizational structure on the West Wing. Always seeming to be on the edge of ouster, Mr. Priebus saw his fate finally sealed a week ago when Mr. Trump hired Mr. Scaramucci, an edgy Wall Street financier, over the chief of staff’s objections. Mr. Priebus’s ally, Sean Spicer, the press secretary, resigned in protest.

More than just a personnel dispute, the disagreement suggested a broader cleavage that would lead to Mr. Priebus’ resignation. In tapping Mr. Scaramucci, Mr. Trump was turning to a wealthy New Yorker who had become part of his inner circle, and who compensated in charisma and rapport with Mr. Trump and his family for what he lacked in governing experience.

Mr. Priebus represented a more conventional breed of senior White House figure, chosen by the president despite a career defined by the calculations of traditional Republican Party politics, which Mr. Trump regards as part of “the swamp” he was elected to drain.

Anthony Scaramucci calls Priebus a ‘paranoid schizophrenic’

Did Anthony Scaramucci help to push Reince Priebus out the door? Yep, and it was long overdue.

Mr. Priebus and Mr. Spicer had told the president they believed Mr. Scaramucci, a gregarious hedge fund manager and fund-raiser, lacked the political experience and organizational skills required to serve in the role of communications director. In the end, however, those warnings fell on deaf ears and further soured Mr. Trump, who almost from the start suggested both publicly and privately that the job of his chief of staff was not safe.

Mr. Scaramucci made clear when he was hired that he did not report to Mr. Priebus but directly to the president and by Wednesday night was publicly suggesting that the chief of staff was a leaker and even threatened to seek an F.B.I. investigation. On Thursday, he went on television and dared Mr. Priebus to deny leaking and described the two of them as Cain and Abel, the biblical brothers whose rivalry results in one killing the other.

On Thursday evening, The New Yorker posted an interview with Mr. Scaramucci that included a profanity-laced tirade against Mr. Priebus. He called Mr. Priebus a “paranoid schizophrenic, a paranoiac,” who leaked information against him and vowed to get him fired. “He’ll be asked to resign very shortly,” Mr. Scaramucci said.

As party chairman last year, Mr. Priebus was slow to embrace Mr. Trump’s candidacy and the president, who sometimes called him “Reincey” in private, never let his chief of staff forget it. . Mr. Trump had often joked about his chief of staff’s long-term loyalty, and liked reminding the people around him that Mr. Priebus suggested that he consider dropping out after the release of the “Access Hollywood” tape of Mr. Trump’s crude remarks about women were made public in October.

A native of Kenosha, Wis., Mr. Priebus rose through the ranks of the Republican Party to be his state’s chairman, amassing power by establishing relationships with party donors and becoming an effective operator within the national party, which he was chosen to lead in 2011. One of his top allies was a fellow Republican from Wisconsin, House Speaker Paul D. Ryan, who publicly defended Mr. Priebus on Thursday when no one in the White House would.

With many former members of President George W. Bush’s administration unwilling to work for a president they regard as unqualified or blackballed because of their opposition to Mr. Trump’s candidacy last year, Mr. Priebus staffed the West Wing with an assortment of Republican veterans and some of his core staff at the R.N.C., including his former deputy, Katie Walsh. But the assimilation of the R.N.C. into the West Wing was fraught and Ms. Walsh and others departed.

Jared Kushner, the president’s son-in-law and senior adviser, soured on Mr. Priebus, partly because of what he has viewed as Mr. Spicer’s shortcomings. Other senior advisers bristled at his demeanor or suspected he was undermining him. An alliance of convenience with Stephen K. Bannon, the nationalist and decidedly anti-establishment chief strategist, seemed to fade in recent weeks.

The jockeying to replace Mr. Priebus got underway even before his demise was official. Many of Mr. Scaramucci’s colleagues assumed he wanted the job, but he would have been controversial not just because of his foul-mouthed rant that included a vulgar attack on Mr. Bannon.

Originally a sharp critic of Mr. Trump as a candidate, he donated to and voted for Democrats like President Barack Obama and supported gun control, abortion rights and same-sex marriage, opposed the death penalty and criticized those who call climate change a hoax.

Some of Mr. Trump’s longtime supporter s also publicly questioned his interest in Mr. Kelly. “The president needs someone who understands the Trump constituency as his chief of staff, someone who has both administrative skills and political savvy,” said Roger Stone, Mr. Trump’s off and on adviser.

Other names that have been floated include Gary D. Cohn, the national economics adviser, and Dina Powell, the deputy national security adviser, both veterans of Goldman Sachs and close to Mr. Kushner and Ivanka Trump. source

Release Of ‘The Epstein Files – Phase 1’ Is Met With Jeers And Mockery Online As Conservative Influencers Are Seen Flashing ‘Declassified’ Binders

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Conservative influencers seen leaving the White House with binders labeled ‘The Epstein Files – Phase 1.’ was roundly mocked online today, and rightly so.

I take no pleasure in bringing you these stories about the things being done in the Trump administration, from the Golden Goat to the Golden Statue of King Trump, it’s safe to say they are off to a very bad start. Today they promised to release the long-hidden and equally long-awaited Jeffrey Epstein files, what they actually released were silly binders that looked like they were assembled by high school interns, labeled ‘The Epstein Files – Phase 1’. What was contained in those silly binders caused an outrage online due to their lack of any meaningful content.

“Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.” Proverbs 23:23 (KJB)

Glenn Beck had this to say about ‘The Epstein Files – Phase 1’: “Who is subverting POTUS? The #Epsteinfiles are a total joke. I know Kash, Pam B and The President. This is not the file. WH tells me that they believe the usual suspects FBI/SDNY has the actual #EpsteinClientList and are refusing to turn it over. THIS IS AN INTERNAL CIVIL WAR if true.” Beck is correct when he says what was released today is a joke, but a joke on who exactly?  If you really wanted to release the Epstein Files, you would have put it on a web site and let the entire country view it at the same time. The actual Epstein Files may indeed come out, but this is not it, this is theater, and the joke’s on…you.

Epstein files released to conservative influencers

FROM NEWS NATION: The Department of Justice released files regarding Jeffrey Epstein to a small group of conservative influencers Thursday. It’s not clear if the files will be released to the press more broadly or if they will be available for the public to access.

President Donald Trump signed an executive order early in his second term ordering the release of the files along with classified documents related to the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr.

The group of influencers was seen leaving the White House with binders labeled “The Epstein Files: Phase 1.”

Attorney General Pam Bondi teased the release of the files earlier in the day, saying there were things included in them that would make people sick. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., who is heading a task force on government transparency, said her group was not given the documents and criticized the administration for the limited release.

 “A NY Post story just revealed that the documents will simply be Epstein’s phonebook. THIS IS NOT WHAT WE OR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ASKED FOR. GET US THE INFORMATION WE ASKED FOR instead of leaking old info to press,” she said on X.

Epstein was charged with sex trafficking but died by suicide while in prison. His girlfriend, Ghislaine Maxwell, is serving a 20-year prison sentence for helping Epstein traffic minors.

The new files are said to contain names of Epstein’s associates and flight logs for his private plane. It’s important to note that someone’s name appearing in Epstein’s files is not an indicator that they participated in sex trafficking, and the files included people who only had brief contact with the high-profile financier.

Previously released files included the names of many political and Hollywood figures, including Trump, former President Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, Stephen Hawking, Leonardo DiCaprio, Michael Jackson, Cate Blanchett, David Copperfield and George Lucas. READ MORE

Trump Posts An AI Video Of What A ‘Trump Gaza’ Would Look Like Complete With A Golden Statue Of Himself That Even Nebuchadnezzar Would Be Proud Of

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

President Trump has shared an AI-generated video depicting his resort-like vision for the future of Gaza — featuring a gigantic golden statue of the president as well as images of him lounging topless poolside with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

In our Wednesday night Bible Study at Bethany Baptist, and on many episodes of our ‘Rightly Dividing’ radio program, we have studied the book of Daniel paying close attention to the connection between the golden statue in chapter 3 and the ‘Image of the Beast’ in Revelation 13. You know what we learned? We learned that anytime someone wants a statue of themselves, in gold no less, it is always a bad thing. Always. Are there no Bible believing Christians anywhere in Trump’s world to tell him the direction he’s being led down now, by Elon Musk, is a bad thing? As it turns out, there are no Bible believers anywhere in Trump’s world, and if there are, they are too afraid to open their mouths. That’s the memo.

“Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, whose height was threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof six cubits: he set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon.” Daniel 3:1 (KJB)

If Barack Obama or Joe Biden has posted an AI video of themselves doing the exact same thing that Trump is doing in his video, every “prophet” on YouTube would be doing endless hours of podcasting about the Antichrist being revealed. You know that’s a true statement and you’re lying if you say otherwise. I am not saying that Trump is the Antichrist, because I don’t think that, but come on, man, what’s the deal? This is not politics we are watching, this is a highly-funded and elaborate stage play, it’s theater, and Elon Musk is calling the shots. So the real question we need to ask ourselves is why does Elon Musk want to take control of Gaza? An area that “just happens” to be next to Jerusalem. Yep, you should start there and when you can answer that question, you’ll understand the reason for the golden statue. Elon Musk just may be developing the ultimate app of all time.

Trump shares AI video of his vision for Gaza — featuring giant gold statue of himself like Nebuchadnezzar

FROM THE NY POST: The 30-second clip, shared on Truth Social late Tuesday, opens by showing a blighted Gaza following 15 months of Israel’s war against Hamas terrorists — before asking, “What next?” in red, white and blue text. Scenes of destruction morph into a sunny beach resort, as a lively dance track with the lyrics “Donald Trump will set you free, bringing the life for all to see, no more tunnels, no more fear, Trump Gaza is finally here” starts to play.

The computer-generated clip then depicts Elon Musk eating bread dipped in hummus on the beach — before quickly cutting to bearded Hamas terrorists bizarrely dancing in bikinis on the sand. Trump’s vision — which he’s said would make Gaza “the Riviera of the Middle East” — also includes giant gold balloons of his face being held by a child, as well as him dancing in a nightclub with a scantily-clad woman, with ally Musk, the world’s richest man, showering people with cash.

The video also depicts a massive golden “Trump Gaza” building, as well as a larger-than-life golden statue of Trump.

The AI-produced song then boasts “a golden future, a brand new light” before the clip shows Trump and Netanyahu lounging shirtless poolside with cocktails in their hands and the words “Trump Gaza” behind them. Since returning to office, Trump has shared his controversial development plan for the war-torn Gaza Strip, which he says he hopes for the US to “take over” and develop into “the Riviera of the Middle East,” pushing out Gaza’s 2 million inhabitants into neighboring nations.

Under the contentious plan, Palestinians would not be allowed to return to the Hamas-run enclave, Trump previously said.

It was the first time a member of the Trump administration publicly said its goal was extending phase one rather than moving on to phase two, which is meant to outline a permanent end of the war and Israel’s full withdrawal from Gaza in exchange for all remaining living hostages. Phase two will also determine who will rule Gaza, though Netanyahu’s government has halted negotiations for phase two following alleged violations by Hamas, including the group’s failure to release the body of slain mother Shiri Bibas last week.

AMERICAN EXPRESS: President Trump Announces His ‘Gold Card Visa Program’ So Rich Immigrants Can Purchase American Citizenship For $5 Million Dollars

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

President Donald Trump wants to begin selling gold card visas for $5 million to foreigners and rich immigrants who want to move to America and create jobs.

When I first heard of this yesterday, I was very busy and not really paying attention, and I dismissed the story as satire, parody or as just another attack on Trump by the Left. But to my shock and surprise, it was all too real, Donald Trump really has a plan to sell American citizenship to ‘rich immigrants’. What a sad and tragic idea. Becoming an American citizen used to be worth something, it was something to aspire to, to be worthy of ideals laid out in the ‘great experiment’ of our founding documents. Now it will be sold to the highest bidder like a condo in Trump Tower, those are not the type of Americans I want to see come in. This new ‘golden age’ is rapidly tarnishing in my opinion, and that’s the memo.

“I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.” Revelation 3:18 (KJB)

I see a lot of movement in Washington since Trump and Musk took over, a lot of “sound and fury” but I am really not sure what it all signifies. Musk has a mandate to ‘dismantle the Deep State’ but of you look closely, it looks like he is dismantling the entire state. Gas prices remain what they were under Biden, as do restaurant bills and grocery prices, there has been little to no movement of the economic needle. People have remained wary, unsure of the future holds, and consumer spending is not rising, a classic sign of no confidence of the American people in the new administration. I voted for Trump for the third time, but this Trump is not the Trump of 2016 who did so much good, stabilized the economy, made the US the world’s largest exporter of oil, and declared Jerusalem to be the capital of Israel. Gold card visas for rich immigrants, is that the plan? The ‘golden age’ of America is barely a month old, and it’s already tarnished and cankered.

Donald Trump reveals VIP visa plan and says he wants to sell GOLD CARD VISAS for $5million to get mega rich foreigners into US

FROM THE SUN US: The US president on Tuesday said the immigration programme, which he said was legal, could start in as little as two weeks. Donald Trump wants to begin selling gold card visas for $5million to foreigners who want to move to America and create jobs. The US president on Tuesday said the immigration programme, which he said was legal, could start in as little as two weeks.

“And we think it’s going to be extremely successful and never been done before.”

Howard Lutnick, Secretary of Commerce, explained that the Trump administration intends to end the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program and “replace it with the Trump gold card.”

The EB-5 program grants investors the opportunity to apply for permanent U.S. residence if they “make the necessary investment in a commercial enterprise in the United States” and intend to generate or sustain 10 permanent full-time jobs. Lutnick described the EB-5 program as “full of nonsense, make-believe and fraud,” adding, “It was a way to get a green card that was low priced.”

Once vetted, gold card holders “can invest in America and we can use that money to reduce our deficit,” he said.

The president projected that the gold card will attract “very high level people” who contribute to job creation. With these cards, “you’re getting big taxpayers, big job producers, and we’ll be able to sell maybe a million of these cards, maybe more than that,” Trump said.

The US currently offers a range of visas for foreigners who want to live and work in the country, each with its own set of requirements and limitations. For those seeking long-term residency, the Green Card application process can be rigorous and time-consuming, often taking years. It’s unclear, however, how long a ‘Gold Card’ would take to obtain and what additional measures – other than financial – would be needed to qualify. It comes after Trump sacked a whopping 2,000 workers and put thousands more on leave in the latest USAID chaos.

Just a day earlier, Tesla tycoon and DOGE leader Elon Musk sent a stern warning to all federal employees saying they must reveal exactly what they “got done last week” or resign. Trump has long vowed to gut what he calls a bloated federal workforce hampering America’s economy.

He set up a new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) — led by Musk — and tasked him with slashing regulations, cutting spending, and reducing government jobs. Now Trump’s administration said it was placing all but a mere handful of USAID workers worldwide on paid administrative leave and eliminating around 2,000 of those positions in the US. READ MORE

Trump says the cards would grant the purchaser permanent U.S. residency and would replace the EB5 visa program.
