Donald Trump was mandated by voters to tear down the deep state when he crushed Kamala Harris on Election Day.
But RINOs in Congress, such as Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell, are still hell-bent on obstructing Trump’s agenda.
And Mitch McConnell just put together this one nasty plan to thwart Donald Trump’s Presidency.
Mitch McConnell takes aim at Trump’s cabinet assignments
When Donald Trump announced his plan to assign former Hawaii Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard as his Director of National Intelligence, the Swamp immediately spun out into a frenzy.
Gabbard is fully behind the America First foreign policy promoted by Trump, which opposes Americans funding, with their tax dollars and blood, endless wars across the globe, including the war in Ukraine and the war that is breaking out in the Middle East.
Trump had the pleasure of experiencing the worst aspects of the intelligence community during his first term when they ran phony information ops, one after the other, accusing him of colluding with the Russians.
Putting a trusted advisor, like Tulsi Gabbard, in charge of the intelligence community gives Trump two major benefits.
First, he will know that Gabbard completely supports Trump’s agenda, ensuring that she will not attempt to circumvent his policies and refuse his orders.
Secondly, he can trust that Gabbard will weed out any conspirators with the Deep State instead of supporting them and keeping them in dangerous posts.
During Trump’s first administration, his Director of National Intelligence was the former Republican Senator from Indiana, Dan Coats.
Coats played a crucial role in pushing the Russian collusion hoax, pushing bogus lies to the media about how he believed Trump was in Russian President Vladimir Putin’s pocket.
McConnell could stage his own John McCain-style “thumbs-down” parting moment in the Senate
But now that RINO Senator Mitch McConnell is no longer in charge of the Republican Senate leadership, he is free to upend as many of Trump’s nominees as he wants.
Had McConnell kept his job as incoming Majority Leader, he would have had no choice but to oversee the confirmation of Trump’s cabinet picks.
Now, with McConnell rejoining the general Republican body, he could stage a moment like John McCain’s “thumbs-down” vote against rolling back Obamacare out of spite for Donald Trump.

In fact, RINOs are appearing optimistic that McConnell will use his still outsized influence within the caucus to pull together votes in order to thwart Trump’s assignments.
“I don’t know that [McConnell] wants to play that role. But if he does, he could do it better than anybody,” Senator Kevin Cramer (R-ND) explained to Punchbowl News. “He knows both our process and he knows the politics of it very, very well.”
“Just by virtue of his influence, which is earned by experience, not by title, he will always have a bit of a sage role,” he added.
Senator John Cornyn (RINO-TX) – who was the prime author to President Joe Biden’s red flag gun confiscation bill – claimed that the warmongers in the Senate still see McConnell as their leader, and he now holds the “free agent” role to obstruct Trump’s strategy behind building his cabinet.
“He and I both agree we’ve been liberated,” explained Cornyn to reporters. “But I know how strongly [McConnell] feels about foreign policy and national security matters.”
“I agree with him on that,” assured Cornyn.
During McConnell’s leadership, he famously declared that the topmost priority for the Senate GOP Caucus was to fund the war in Ukraine.
And now, McConnell has reportedly already put into motion his nasty plan to tank Gabbard’s nomination because he does not want to settle for anything less than a warmonger that would thwart Trump’s plan to end the threat of World War III by bringing the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East to an end.
“Gabbard’s foreign policy views are anathema to McConnell, a longtime defense hawk who favors boosting Pentagon spending and has been Washington’s most vocal supporter of Ukraine,” reported Punchbowl News.
“Gabbard opposes U.S. assistance for Ukraine, often to the point of amplifying Russian propaganda,” continued the report.
