Вопрос к залу.
Nov. 19th, 2024 06:36 pmУ меня сложилось впечатление, что если сервильные сенаторы и соберутся кого-то прокатить из одиозных трамповых номинантов, то их хватит только на одну кандидатуру. Вообще-то я думаю, что и на одну не осмелятся, но все же вдруг.
Так вот, если выбирать только одну кандидатуру, кого бы вы считали правильным прокатить?
Мое мнение: однозначно Тулси Габбард. Вот уж кого нельзя подпускать на пушечный выстрел к разведке и разным секретам, связанным с национальной безопасностью.
А вы как считаете?

Date: 2024-11-20 12:57 am (UTC)Я бы всё же Гэтца прокатил. DOJ--это то, что сохраняет в стране закон. Поставить во главе этого департамента любителя лолиток и вообще аморального типа--хуже некуда, он там наворотит дел. Но Габбард тоже годная на роль фанеры над Парижем.

Гэтц внутри страны шуровать будет, а эта на международной арене.
Впрочем, дело, кажется, идет к Гэтцу. Если вообще куда-то идет:)).

Date: 2024-11-20 12:31 pm (UTC)35-летний Гэтц был избран в Конгресс в 2017 и целиком посвятил себя нападкам на ФБР и министерство юстиции за расследование путинской атаки на выборы 2016. Потом к нему присоединилось несколько других конгрессменов. Трамповское "no collusion" держалось на молчании двух свидетелей в обмен на президентское помилование — Роджера Стоуна и Пола Манафорта. С Манафортом договаривался Джулиани, а со Стоуном — Гэтц.
As Roger Stone prepared to stand trial in 2019, complaining he was under pressure from federal prosecutors to incriminate Donald Trump, a close ally of the president repeatedly assured Stone that “the boss” would likely grant him clemency if he were convicted, a recording shows.
At an event at a Trump property that October, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) predicted that Stone would be found guilty at his trial in Washington the following month but would not “do a day” in prison. Gaetz was apparently unaware they were being recorded by documentary filmmakers following Stone, whom special counsel Robert S. Mueller III had charged with obstruction of a congressional investigation.
“The boss still has a very favorable view of you,” said Gaetz, stressing that the president had “said it directly.” He also said, “I don’t think the big guy can let you go down for this.”
Gaetz at one point told Stone he was working on getting him a pardon but was hesitant to say more backstage at the event, in which speakers were being filmed for online broadcast. “Since there are many, many recording devices around right now, I do not feel in a position to speak freely about the work I’ve already done on that subject,” Gaetz said.
The lawmaker also told Stone during their conversation that Stone was mentioned “a lot” in redacted portions of Mueller’s report, appearing to refer to portions that the Justice Department had shown to select members of Congress confidentially in a secure room. “They’re going to do you, because you’re not going to have a defense,” Gaetz told Stone.
Давление на свидетелей — преступление, за которое полагается 20 лет тюрьмы, но заговорщикам все сошло с рук.

Date: 2024-11-20 02:14 am (UTC)On November 30, 2020, President-elect Joe Biden announced that Neera Tanden would be his nominee for Director of the Office of Management and Budget.[55] Immediately following the announcement, Tanden deleted over 1,000 of her previous tweets,[56] and changed her Twitter bio from "progressive" to "liberal."[57] During the confirmation hearing, Tanden apologized for several of her tweets attacking Republican senators, including tweets calling Susan Collins "the worst," comparing Ted Cruz to vampires, and using the nickname "Moscow Mitch" for Mitch McConnell and comparing him to Lord Voldemort.[58] Senator John Cornyn described Tanden as "radioactive" in contrast to other Biden nominees he felt were more acceptable,[59] while Senator John Kennedy stated that she "called Senator Sanders everything but an ignorant slut."[60][61] NPR described her as "Biden's most controversial Cabinet pick."[62]
In February 2021, Democratic Senator Joe Manchin said he opposed her nomination due to "overtly partisan statements" in the past, putting her approval in doubt due to the 50–50 split in the Senate between both parties.[63][64] Other moderate senators, including Susan Collins, Rob Portman, Mitt Romney, and Pat Toomey said they would also vote against Tanden's nomination.[65] Collins cited Tanden's deletion of over 1,000 of her tweets after the announcement of her nomination for a reason why she would not vote to confirm her which, according to Collins, "raises concerns about her commitment to transparency."[66] Conservative commentator Hugh Hewitt asked Senate Republicans to forgive her and approve the nomination,[67] but none indicated they would do so.[68][69] Senate panels which were set to vote on her nomination postponed consideration.[70] On March 2, 2021, the White House withdrew Tanden's name from consideration at her request.[71]
Среди нынешних кандидатур невежливость — наименьший из грехов.
