Before our monologue,
Rosie O'Donnell has a few choice words
from MSDNC,
for MSDNC
hosts, liberal Joe and Mika. Take a look. So Mika and Joe went down to Mar-a-Argo to kiss the ring.
So last time I ever watched Morning Joe,
period.
End of statement.
Unreal.
Unreal.
For months you were telling us he's the worst thing that could happen to this country and democracy.
Then you go kiss his ring.
Despicable.
Readjust your thinking.
It's not gonna be a good 4 years, I can tell you that much.
Land of the free, home of the brave, well has now become in liberal land
the land of the woke snowflake
Look, don't you just hate to see liberals turning on each other like this so sad to see Trump derangement syndrome is
Taking its toll speaking of which tonight we have more big news from the president-elect
and bad news for the radical left. Donald Trump is assembling his new administration.
He is doing it in record time. According to an ABC News report, he is making appointments, nominations,
in, quote, a quarter of the time it has taken some of his predecessors.
Coming up, 2 of those appointments will join us live, including the soon-to-be deputy chief of policy, Stephen Miller, along with the incoming press secretary—I
wouldn't wish this job on anybody—Caroline
Leavitt, although I do have suggestions for her. After 4 long years of circleback Jen Psaki and Karine Jean-Pierre,
change is coming to the White House briefing room. By the way, what a great idea
that Ari Fleischer had. He said, put new media, put talk radio, Fox News,
put people in podcasting, put them in the front rows and take the legacy,
hate Trump media in the back.
Their influence is dead anyway. They had 90% negative coverage of Donald Trump, 90% positive for Kamala. Trump's still wanting a landslide.
Nobody cares what they say. And now change is coming to every facet of our federal government. Might as well do it there as well. And whether the legacy media, the radical left, like it or not, it's happening. Moments ago, Donald Trump announced that American business mogul and small business administrator
Linda McMahon will be appointed to lead the Department of Education,
which might cease to exist
by the end of Trump's term. Now, that's great. Why? Because state and local governments
know better how to raise their children. And there should be national requirements that they must meet. Our friend, Dr. Mehmet Oz, he has been nominated to be the administrator for Medicare and Medicaid,
which Donald Trump has promised to protect, where he will work closely with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. That'll be a great one-two punch. Dan Scavino is back. He has been picked to be Trump's deputy chief of staff. Good choice. According to reports, Vice President-elect
Vance has also confirmed that Trump is interviewing candidates to replace Chris Wray at the FBI.
Now, Wray had an opportunity after Comey, I spoke about it often, to restore the reputation,
the former greatness,
the integrity to the FBI,
which continued to operate in a very hyper-partisan
manner under his watch. So, Chris Ray's time as FBI director is now running short. In fact, far-left, politically motivated bureaucrats
from all across the federal government,
They should know that their reign of oppression
on the American people
is about to end. The witch hunts will end. The leaking will end. The abuse of power, the corruption will end. The so-called resistance within our government against we the people will be over. Donald Trump has nominated a team of disruptors
like he said he would. They are hell-bent on reforming
every single department.
Look at what Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy will do. Waste,
fraud, abuse will be gutted. Constitutional
order,
remember the principles of limited government, greater freedom, they will be restored. You won't have the nanny state cradle to grave, womb to the tomb, promises of the left that would never be realized anyway, that always result in broken promises,
more poverty
and a loss of freedom.
The DOJ must no longer ever, ever be weaponized. We can't live in that country. And institutions,
great institutions
like the FBI,
in our intelligence communities,
they need to be restored to their former greatness. Under Donald Trump they will. And despite what you hear from the hysterical legacy media, the incoming
administration is confident Trump's cabinet will get confirmed.
Not only will Republicans have a 53-seat
majority in the Senate, but the president-elect is also ready and willing to use another tool at his disposal.
It is not the ideal way to do it, But if he has to, he will, like other presidents have. It's called recess appointments.
And like everything else that Donald Trump does, this will send the left, the state-run
legacy media mob, into a fit of hysteria.
Here's some facts. Let's look at Reuters as the source, shall we? The US Constitution
says that a president can make recess appointments to fill vacant positions
when the Senate is not in session. The Supreme Court ruled that a president can make those appointments
once the Senate has been adjourned for at least 10 days. The first ever recess appointment, well, that was made by the first president himself, George Washington,
during the very first congressional recess in 1790.
More
recently, Ronald Reagan made
240 recess appointments. President George H.W. Bush made 77
recess appointments,
including his secretary of state. Bill Clinton made
139
recess appointments. George W. Bush,
171.
Barack Obama, 32.
So, this Thanksgiving,
if you're sitting with your liberal relatives and they're not throwing turkey legs or mashed potatoes at you and they are freaking out, you can present them with these simple, basic, fundamental facts and truth. Presidents from both parties have made hundreds of recess appointments.
It will not be unusual. It will not be unlawful for Donald Trump to do the same. So tonight we can all feel very good about Donald Trump's incoming cabinet. They are about to clean house in the Washington swamp. There is
little that anyone on the radical extreme left can do about it. And of course, that won't stop them from screaming, yelling, and crying, and trying.
But their manufactured hysteria didn't work during the election.
It's not gonna work now. It's sort of like, it all comes together. It's just 1 big nine-year period of
You know breathless Trump Trump Trump and the American people rejected that overwhelmingly
in the election
Won't cancel culture is now about to die. Americans are over it. They no longer listen to the media. They don't care what Hollywood celebrities have to say, which is great news. Oprah Winfrey, George Clooney could go back and focus on counting their money. Americans want the American dream restored for everybody else with freedom and justice and prosperity
and equal justice under the law, equal application
of our laws for everybody,
along with a border that is secure,
streets that are safe, lower grocery
prices and lower gas prices.
