D'Esposito was angling for the DEA IG spot but an NYPD detective losing his gun twice & being asked to take early retirement may have been a dealbreaker. Then there's Despo's own unfair congressional hiring practices which cost him the 2024 election.

Former LI congressman Anthony D'Esposito is the perfect Trump candidate for DOL IG. For three years, Despo believed George Santos was a wealthy entrepreneur who lived in a Whitestone Queens rental...

Has anyone suggested the Qatari AFB deal in Idaho was a concession in connection w the Israel/Gaza negotiation? What's the big deal anyway? We have an AFB in Qatar. ;-)

Bookmark. I don't think J. D. Vance & his wife flew 2000 miles to Murdoch's Montana ranch on Tuesday afternoon to complain about the WSJ's coverage of the WH (which has been first rate) when a major attack on Iran by Israel was forthcoming.

You saw Jr managed to get a Romanian wholesale drug distributor on the Trump Org board? Beats Patton having coke delivered to TT by a mile.

Reminder: Check if any big DHS contracts were awarded to Friends of Corey recently. You know he didn't pay for that $50k Rolex Noem is wearing out of his own pocket.

mrspanstreppon @jamiepeppard.bsky.social · Aug 13

Another Lewandowski associate was awarded a $63M DHS contract. I don't know if Lewandowski's dick is 4" longer than other men's but he's got a set of brass. What do you think his cut is on $90M?

Not 100% sure but I think Paolo Zampolli accompanied Noem & Lewandowski on their trip to Panama. Zampolli is the Where's Waldo of Trump World & no one but me & a handful of others seems to find this at all odd. (Zampolli is also on the Kennedy Center board)

mrspanstreppon @jamiepeppard.bsky.social · Jul 11

I'm not the only one who wonders what Special Envoy of the President of the United States for Global Partnership Paolo Zampolli's role is in the Trump administration. I suspect he dishes the dirt to Donald & Melania.

Has Secretary of Homeland Security Corey Lewandowski put out a tip sheet on how to identify which of your relatives are antifa at Thanksgiving dinner? (I can't believe that obnoxious prick is running Noem & DHS) #stealthisbook

Democracy is not something you believe in or hang your hat on, but something you do. You participate. If you stop doing it, democracy crumbles and falls. If you participate, the future is yours.

With Louis DeJoy gone, my wait time for an order of 20 flower stamps was cut from 18 to 6 days.

mrspanstreppon @jamiepeppard.bsky.social · Sep 6

I asked my mailman about the delay & he told me Louis DeJoy shut down the USPS air fleet so everything was now being shipped by truck. To thank him, I printed out a copy of a WP article about DeJoy's other plans. All good now since DeJoy resigned in March.
