When President-elect Trump announced Tom Homan as Border Czar, it showed that he was prepared to enact his agenda by any means possible. When he announced Pete Hegseth for Secretary of Defense, he was making a statement that he doesn’t care what the mainstream media says about his picks. The choice of Tulsi Gabbard signaled that he is ready to reach across the aisle and appoint non-Republicans to his Cabinet, with the same goal of taking on the establishment.

But the pick of Matt Gaetz for Attorney General shows that all bets are off, and that President-elect Trump is fully committed to his promise to be “our retribution” against the Deep State and insidious actors here at home who have wronged the American people for far too long.

Attorney General Gaetz is a pick that even yours truly did not see coming, as his name was not even being considered before the sudden announcement. But Matt is a true firebrand in every sense of the word, ready to bring down the hammer of justice on the swamp rats who have infested the DOJ for many years.

The fact that he has already resigned from his seat in Congress shows that not only is he going all-in on this nomination, but he remains a team player even despite the GOP establishment’s hostility to him: His quick resignation means that a special election to fill his seat in the House can take place before January 3rd, thus guaranteeing that the GOP’s narrow majority is not jeopardized by his departure.

President Trump is putting together the ultimate A-Team. Are you ready?

Matt Gaetz Resigns from Congress After Trump Nominates Him as Attorney General

By Paul Bois

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) has resigned from his congressional seat after President-elect Donald Trump nominated him to serve as Attorney General in his administration.

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) announced and confirmed that Gaetz’s resignation was “effective immediately” and that a special election will be held in his congressional district.

Mike Johnson revealed that Gaetz stepped down from his post due to a state law that gives an “8-week period to select and fill a vacant seat.”

“If you start the clock now, if you do the math, we may be able to fill that seat as early as Jan. 3 when we take the new oath of office for the new Congress,” Johnson explained of Gaetz’s reasoning.

“He’s a reformer in his mind and heart, and I think he’ll bring a lot to the table on that,” Johnson added.

Trump formally nominated Gaetz to oversee the Department of Justice (DOJ) Wednesday afternoon.

“Few issues in America are more important than ending the partisan Weaponization of our Justice System. Matt will end Weaponized Government, protect our Borders, dismantle Criminal Organizations and restore Americans’ badly-shattered Faith and Confidence in the Justice Department,” he said.

“On the House Judiciary Committee, which performs oversight of DOJ, Matt played a key role in defeating the Russia, Russia, Russia Hoax, and exposing alarming and systemic Government Corruption and Weaponization,” he added.

Gaetz raised hell in Washington, DC, in 2023 with a motion to vacate then-Speaker Kevin McCarthy, which prevailed and ousted the California Republican from presiding over the House of Representatives.
