With Harmeet Dhillon, Trump Adds Another Stellar Pick to His Administration
President-elect Donald Trump keeps rolling out solid picks for his incoming administration, indicating he's much more attuned to the need for installing quality candidates in order to help him achieve his stated goals – and the sweet revenge of success — this time around.
On Monday evening, Trump announced another stellar pick in attorney Harmeet Dhillon, CEO of the Center for American Liberty and managing partner of the Dhillon Law Group, who he's tapped to serve as Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights at the U.S. Department of Justice.
Trump shared the announcement on Truth Social:
Not good enough. Still only one AA nominated for a top position in the new administration.
Dan Bongino played the clip where Trump, in mid explanation on something, said that he was so disappointed in her. She has so much potential as a journalist and doesn't use it.
Talk about an epic burn. She likely had to go to urgent care for that one.
And her eyes. My wife even commented on her crazy eyes.
Christopher Wray Preparing Resignation As FBI Director
Wray’s potential resignation highlights the tense relationship between the FBI and Trump-era Republicans, who have long expressed dissatisfaction with the bureau’s leadership. This friction has been fueled by high-profile incidents like the raid on Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home and whistleblower allegations of political bias within the FBI. For critics, Wray’s leadership symbolizes an agency in turmoil, accused of failing to address internal misconduct while projecting partisanship in its investigative priorities.
A significant catalyst for Wray’s decision was Senator Charles Grassley’s scathing letter earlier this week. Grassley, who will assume chairmanship of the Judiciary Committee next month, delivered a damning critique of Wray’s tenure, stating that it was "time for you and your deputy to move on to the next chapter in your lives."
Grassley’s letter cited a host of grievances, including politically biased investigations and alleged retaliation against whistleblowers. He specifically called out the FBI’s handling of the Trump raid, where armed agents executed a warrant that led to widespread criticism from conservatives. Grassley’s frustrations aren’t new; he has repeatedly clashed with the FBI over allegations of abuse of power and what he sees as a lack of accountability within the bureau.
Trump Picks Ric Grenell to Serve as Presidential Envoy for Special Missions: Will ‘Always Put America First’
“I am pleased to announce Richard Allen Grenell as our Presidential Envoy for Special Missions,” Trump wrote. “Ric will work in some of the hottest spots around the World, including Venezuela and North Korea.”
Trump added: “In my First Term, Ric was the United States Ambassador to Germany, Acting Director of National Intelligence, and Presidential Envoy for Kosovo-Serbia Negotiations. Previously, he spent eight years inside the United Nations Security Council, working with North Korea, and developments in numerous other Countries.”
As Breitbart News previously reported, after the Senate voted to confirm Grenell, he became the first openly gay U.S. ambassador to Germany and made history as the “most senior openly gay executive official.”
Trump taps Devin Nunes to be Chairman of the President's Intelligence Advisory Board
"While continuing his leadership of Trump Media & Technology Group, Devin will draw on his experience as former Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, and his key role in exposing the Russia, Russia, Russia Hoax, to provide me with independent assessments of the effectiveness and propriety of the U.S. Intelligence Community’s activities. Congratulations Devin!" Trump's post concluded.
Veterans who served with Trump Defense pick Pete Hegseth in combat rave about his brains and valor: ‘Breathes the military’
“I had never heard of anybody — before or since then — volunteering to serve as an infantryman, especially as a platoon leader, going to Iraq in like 2005,” Sgt. Maj. Eric Geressy, who served on that team, recounted in an exclusive interview with The Post on Wednesday.
Upon first glance, Geressy was also skeptical. Hegseth had shown up just three weeks prior to heading overseas. His Princeton grad’s pedigree and work as an equity capital markets analyst at Bear Stearns also gave Geressy pause.
They were heading into a very dangerous mission where bullets would be flying — a far cry from his investment background.
“I was rough on him,” Geressy recalled. “He was very good. He took everybody’s input immediately … very eager to learn, listen, open-minded and a very critical thinker.”
He would go on to win the Bronze Star Medal, second Army Commendation Medal and Combat Infantryman Badge for his service in Iraq.
Geressy said how Hegseth put “the troops first” and would usually be the “first one through the door” during key missions.
Now Hegseth, 44, is gearing up for an even bolder move, potentially leading every military service branch as head of the Pentagon.

Some hilarious stuff here. Of course he doesnt trust .gov email. The Deep State, as much as I hate to use the term, used those same systems access and leak everything he did in his first term.

But his emails? Team Trump’s private emails spark concerns
Eight years after targeting Hillary Clinton's email protocols, Trump's transition team is relying on private servers instead of secure government accounts.
www.msnbc.com
According to the Financial Times, members of Trump’s team told the experts of their intention to announce a withdrawal from the Geneva-based health body on January 20 — inauguration day.
The departure would remove the W.H.O.’s biggest source of funds in one fell swoop. The FT report notes the withdrawal will complete a process Trump started last time he was in office:
Ashish Jha, Biden’s former White House coronavirus response co-ordinator and dean of Brown University’s school of public health, told the outlet the transition team wanted Trump to withdraw on the first day because of the “symbolism” of reversing Biden’s own inauguration-day move.
“There are lots of people who are going to be part of the inner circle of the administration who do not trust the W.H.O. and want to symbolically show on day one that they are out,” he said.
Report: Trump Transition Team Looks to Pull U.S. out of W.H.O. ‘On Day One’
The U.S. will exit the globalist World Health Organization (W.H.O.) on day one of President-elect Donald Trump's new administration taking power, a report Sunday predicts.

Move with lightning speed. Think really hard about quitting the UN also.
Although I like the idea, I also like having, and wielding, veto power in the Security Council.
