Senator Rand Paul unleashed fiery accusations during a confirmation hearing, blasting a State Department nominee over his ties to an Obama-era official who deceived President Trump. The Kentucky Republican grilled Joel Rayburn about James Jeffrey, the former Syria envoy who admitted hiding real troop numbers in the Middle East. Paul called these actions “tantamount to treason” – a direct attack on America’s commander-in-chief.
Jeffrey ran a dangerous “shell game” to keep President Trump in the dark about how many U.S. soldiers remained in Syria. While Trump fought to end forever wars, deep state bureaucrats lied to sabotage his America First agenda. These swamp creatures thought they knew better than the elected president – typical Washington arrogance.
Worse yet, Jeffrey signed the infamous “Never Trump” letter in 2016 along with other elitists. These globalist holdovers hated Trump’s tough stance on endless foreign wars. They schemed to protect their corrupt system instead of respecting the will of We the People. Real patriots don’t stab their president in the back.
Rayburn awkwardly dodged questions about whether he admired Jeffrey’s treasonous behavior. Every honest American knows the answer. If you work closely with a traitor, you’re either complicit or incompetent. Trump’s nominees must purge these unaccountable bureaucrats, not defend them.
Our military heroes deserve leaders who put America first, not lies and games. Hiding troop numbers risks soldiers’ lives and betrays their sacrifice. This is how the deep state operates – lying, covering up, and ignoring elected leaders. They treat presidents like temporary nuisances instead of the voice of the people.
President Trump wanted to bring our troops home after smashing ISIS. The swamp wanted endless occupation. The choice is clear: sovereignty or globalism. Real leaders follow orders, not undermine them. Jeffrey belongs in prison, not writing policy manuals for weak-kneed politicians.
This hearing exposed the rot in our federal agencies. Career bureaucrats think they’re the real rulers. They laugh at democracy while collecting taxpayer salaries. It’s time to drain the swamp completely – no more compromises with anti-Trump saboteurs.
Every patriot should be furious. The same deep state that spied on Trump’s campaign is still infecting our government. November’s election is our last chance to finish the revolution Trump started. Fire every traitor. Hire warriors who love America. No more lies. No more games. Take our country back – for good.
