Trump and the war hawks. Or war sluts. Or war pigs. I thought about all three of these. Then I thought: Why insult hawks, sluts, or pigs?
Donald Trump is forming his cabinet by rounding up the usual warmongers. In 2016, he gathered the generals, men like James Mattis and John Kelly. This time around, he’s tapping people like Marco Rubio. “Little Marco” as Secretary of State, a man who’s rarely met a war he didn’t like. For Secretary of Defense he’s nominated Pete Hegseth, whose main concern seems to be waging a war on “woke” generals. One thing is certain: Rubio and Hegseth won’t challenge the military-industrial complex. They will feed it… and feed it again.
Other nominations include Elise Stefanik, a rabid Zionist, as UN ambassador, along with Mike Huckabee, a pro-Israel evangelical who believes in the “end times,” as U.S. ambassador to Israel. Trump may trump Biden as being more slavishly pro-Israel. “Bombs for Bibi to kill babies” should be their motto.
On today’s Ron Paul Liberty Report:
President-elect Trump has selected a US military veteran and Fox News commentator to be his next Defense Secretary. Official Washington is panicking due to his “lack of experience.” Is this a good move or a bad move? Also: Huckabee to Israel? And make way for DOGE.

On today’s Ron Paul Liberty Report:
Yesterday was a bad day for those who endorse “America first” in our foreign policy. With reported Trump appointments of neocons Elise Stefanik (UN Ambassador), Mike Waltz (National Security Advisor), and… Marco Rubio (Secretary of State), many who hoped that Trump 2.0 would be different than Trump 1.0 are feeling dejected and betrayed. Is there any hope left? Also today: Iran strongly denied any plan to assassinate Trump – who’s lying?

Trump named the very hawkish Rep. Elise Stefanik to be the next ambassador to the United Nations. I discussed that in a new column today. As if that weren’t bad enough, Marco Rubio is being considered for Secretary of State and there are reports that he is likely to get the job:
Meanwhile, Republican Party sources assess that Trump’s rejection of Mike Pompeo increases the likelihood of Senator Marco Rubio being selected as the next Secretary of State.
Rubio, a Florida senator and strong supporter of Israel, has grown considerably closer to Trump in recent months and attended the victory event in West Palm Beach on Tuesday night. According to two sources, the chances of his selection as America’s top diplomat are high.
