I love the disciplined message. He is in lockstep with the president's agenda, both that which he campaigned upon and that which he has announced since his reelection.
Paoletta will probably find very little anti-semitism, but a lot of criticism of the Israeli Government’s actions. These are not the same thing in reality, though Netanyahoo and his mob would like them to be treated as such.
Good point G1. The big problem we have at the moment is separating true and valid criticism and not bending to the howls of antisemitism coming from the usual suspects. Oppression by our oppressors must be stopped.
My sense is that Trump wants to hit the ground running in January and is focused on that objective. First priority is to continue to avoid assassination attempts by the Deep State. Second priority is recruit effective and loyal personnel to this next Administration. Third priority is to build up useful relationships in Congress and abroad. Fourth is to determine which problems need immediate action and work those first. Fifth is to avoid being suckered into bad decisions or actions by nefarious covert actors that wish to undermine him at every turn.
Also, we needn't be concerned about Ukraine missteps because Putin is holding aces and the US/EU has no cards left to place beyond bellicose bluffing. Any escalation by the West just gets more Ukrainians killed or wounded, and they will eventually revolt and solve the problem themselves.
You're right, Cass. If he is going to make a dent in the wall of resistance, subversion and corruption he must use strong arm tactics (not as a dictator as he has been accused, but as a leader seeking to repair and heal the country) and ignore the squabbling masses who are driven by the disinformation media complex of traditional news outlets. He and his team must offer evidence of swamp draining this time around. Anyone stone walling and resisting in giving up the evidence they must be dismissed and prosecuted. You're right it won't be easy and he must have trustworthy people with whom he surrounds himself.
Trumps vetting machine. Wonder his age as sounds like a future SCOTUS candidate if young enough.

Sounds to me that it is more than just DT wanting to clean house.
He has an army of house cleaners.

“Lawyers there are terrified of what comes next.”
To borrow the phrase of our host: “I like it. A lot.”
Ok BA: I’ll see your phrase and raise you with a well worn cliche, “And it’s about damn time!”

I say let’s watch and see as this stuff supposedly codified since Nixon era.
