• MEDIA: Trump's Free-Speech Warrior?

    From John D Groenveld@21:1/5 to All on Fri Apr 18 11:50:35 2025
    Curt Mills for The American Conservative on whether Norm Braman likes
    Little Marco Rubio's chances at securing Donald Trump's endorsement
    for WhiteHouse.GOV: <URL:https://www.theamericanconservative.com/trumps-free-speech-warrior/>
    | But why this job, why this role and why now?
    |
    | To allies, it's no real surprise. Beattie is perhaps a better fit
    | here than he ever was at the speechwriter's office, a den of
    | influential but often thankless work. In comments on the circuit in
    | 2016, Beattie made clear that his shock support for Trump was based
    | on two reasons: the future president's revolution in Republican
    | foreign policy, and the then-candidate's adamance on the immigration
    | issue.

    Will Trump attempt to enlist Peter Thiel's VP JD Vance to serve as
    Trump's Deputy Chief Sales Critter for Trump's bipartisan,
    comprehensive, merit-based, immigration reform legislative legacy
    authored by the Cheap Labor Lobby and passed by Mike Johnson's
    House.GOV and John Thune's Senate.GOV and will Thiel allow Vance to
    commit political suicide in the race to win Trump's endorsement for WhiteHouse.GOV in 2028?
