The Trump disrupter nominees

 Blaze:

...

For his incoming administration, Trump wants several disruptors in top positions: decorated Army combat veteran Pete Hegseth as secretary of defense; Lt. Col. Tulsi Gabbard as director of National Intelligence; Elon Musk and Ohio entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy running the proposed Department of Government Efficiency; Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) as head of the State Department; and. Florida Rep. Mike Waltz, a former Green Beret, as his national security adviser.

Trump announced Wednesday that he would be nominating Gaetz — who proved instrumental last year in ousting former Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) as speaker of the House — to take over the Department of Justice, where officials have been updating their resumes since Nov. 5 in anticipation of a thorough housecleaning.

"Matt is a deeply gifted and tenacious attorney, trained at the William & Mary College of Law, who has distinguished himself in Congress through his focus on achieving desperately needed reform at the Department of Justice," wrote Trump. "Few issues in America are more important than ending the partisan Weaponization of our Justice System."

Gaetz, a frequent guest on Stephen K. Bannon's "War Room" podcast and a target of a frivolous DOJ sex-trafficking investigation, has impressed upon his fellow conservatives the need to rein in the administrative state.

"I don't care if it takes every second of our time and every ounce of our energy," Gaetz said in his 2023 CPAC speech. "We either get this government back on our side or we defund and get rid of, abolish the FBI, the CDC, ATF, DOJ, every last one of them if they do not come to heel."

"Matt will end Weaponized Government, protect our Borders, dismantle Criminal Organizations and restore Americans' badly-shattered Faith and Confidence in the Justice Department," continued Trump. "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 is a Champion for the Constitution and the Rule of Law."

The president-elect added, "Matt will root out the systemic corruption at DOJ, and return the Department to its true mission of fighting Crime, and upholding our Democracy and Constitution."
...

Under Biden, too much of the efforts of the DOJ had been focused on fighting political opponents rather than on fighting crime, its main mission.   While Gaetz is seen by some as a loose cannon, he could be effective if he focused his efforts on securing the border and fighting real crime in America.  

The Russian collusion hoax was one of the biggest political frauds in history and those responsible for it should be held to account.  Those within the DOJ who pushed the fraud should be removed from office.
