NewsMax, Rubio Expected to Make Drastic Changes to NSC "The idea behind shrinking the staff would be to reshape it to align with how President Donald Trump makes decisions, the sources told NBC News. The smaller staff would mean that, rather than having a large group of advisers making policy recommendations for Trump, the president would instead direct his national security adviser on policy matters, with that person to lead the staff in carrying out his orders."

The Reaping Phase @AceofSpadesHQ "This is the entire point of Fake
@JakeTapper's book: The lie has been exposed, and the Democrat-Media Party is in danger because of it, so a Fresh New Lie is required to immunize the Democrat-Media Party from further criticism." Quote The Reaping Phase @AceofSpadesHQ "It was all Biden and six Democrat staffers with no future political career and no further use to the Party; the media and all current Democrat pols were blameless. They were just as shocked to learn of Biden's dementia as you were (back in 2019, when you learned of it)."
Rusty @Rusty_Weiss "
Axios saw Biden's mental decline on full display at the debate and reported he had a cold. All because one White House source "confirmed" it. Meanwhile, Tapper adamently insisted Biden's decline was actually just sudden onset stutter. These two are absolute scum."
Charles C. W. Cooke@ charlescwcooke "
Don't overthink it. They knew about Biden, just as we knew about Biden, and a supermajority of Americans knew about Biden. They lied about it, because they didn't want Trump to win. That's the story, the rest is noise."

Scott Walker @ScottWalker "
Federal Judge Lynn Adelman is a long-time liberal activist. I expect him to dismiss the case. If he does not, suspended Judge Hannah Dugan is in trouble. No one is above the law." Quote Dan Lennington @DanLennington "Milwaukee Judge Hannah Dugan has filed a motion to dismiss her indictment on grounds of absolute judicial immunity & federalism.
