To say that Steve Bannon despises the intelligentsia of the right and the left is an understatment. Under Bannon, Breitbart published the conservative writer David Horowitz reference to conservative pundit Brill Kristol as a “renegade Jew” or such tabloid owrthy fodder as “Trannies 49Xs Higher HIV Rate” and “Birth Control Makes Women Unattractive and Crazy”). He has even dissed FOX NEWS> “(Fox News) got it more wrong than anybody. Rupert is a globalist and never understood Trump. To him, Trump is a radical. Now they’ll go centrist and build the network around Megyn Kelly.
Britain’s Daily Mail on Friday quoted an unnamed source in the Trump transition team confirming both the appointment and that the embassy move would be a first item of business for ambassador Huckabee. “That’s going to happen,” the transition source said. “Governor Huckabee is going to see it through.” Huckabee. a former Presidential candidate and Fox New host, is a christian evangelist who sees Israel as ordained as a Jewish state by Jesus.
Anthony Scaramucci
The Wall Street financier sat on Trump’s finance committee during the campaign and was named a member of the transition team’s executive board last week. Scaramucci was also a member of the campaign’s team of economic advisors, which Clinton derided as just “six guys named Steve.” In a campaign notably lacking in more recognized economists. Scaramucci is seen by Mr. T has an economist. Possibly chief economics advisor.
Rudy Giuliani
Giuliani is one of Trump’s highest-profile supporters. The former New York City mayor has been an enthusiastic proponent of Trump’s policies since the primary race, sticking by the president-elect through some of the campaign’s rockiest moments. Giuliani’s name was first floated in connection with the attorney general position; he has since emerged as a rumored contender for secretary of state.
Peter Thiel
Thiel, an outspoken venture capitalist, broke with the ranks of Silicon Valley to support Trump during the presidential race. He spoke from the stage at the Republican National Committee and is likey to serve as a guru for management of the internet under the regime.
Corey Lewandowski
Lewandowski was the first of Trump’s three campaign managers and was widely seen as thug. He has remained a loyal Trump supporter ever since his departure in June, when he joined CNN as a political commentator. Late last week, he resigned from the network within hours of surfacing at Trump Tower. Rumors are that Priebus does not want Lewandowski there but Trump does. Any job for the man would suggest that Trump intends ot foment violence.
Sen. Ted Cruz
The Texas Tea Partier did not announce his support of the president-elect until late September, and said he only did so due to the significance of the Supreme Court vacancy Trump would fill if elected. Cruz’s unadvertised visit to Trump Tower preceded rumors that he is under consideration to be the next attorney general.
Betsy DeVos
DeVos is a billionaire power broker with deep political ties at the state and national level to the GOP. As chairwoman of the Michigan Republican Party, DeVos was a driving force behind a failed 2000 ballot proposal that would have amended the Michigan Constitution to create a voucher system allowing taxpayer funds to follow students to nonpublic schools. She is a candidate for secretary of education.
DeVos, 58, is a staunch supporter of charter schools and vouchers, which supporters argue give parents and students more freedom to seek a higher-quality education but critics view as an effort to privatize education at the expense of public schools.
The president-elect has said he wants to “immediately” invest $20 billion in school choice. States would have the option to let the funds follow a student to a private school, and grant distribution would favor states with “private school choice, magnet schools and charter laws,” according to an outline on his campaign website.
