OLSZEWSKI: Do you think it's wrong for elected officials and their families to profit from positions of power? WALTZ: Henerally speaking? Sure O: How do you square that working for a POTUS who last year made 20k stock trades, including companies who benefit from markets he's actively manipulating?

Hell yeah they should be changed but the very people with the power to change the rules won’t because they ALL make too much money by leaving them the way they are. I’m surprised they don’t roll back the rules to make it even easier

This fragile, frightened man won’t even acknowledge Biden won the election, by more than seven million votes no less. Anyone who believes this coward will stand up to Trump and give him accurate intel is blowing smoke out of their asses. Whatever intel trump wants is the intel waltz will give him

These "men" I use that term very lightly... Are the most subjugated, weak minded that I've ever come across... All the bluster of America Strong has been exposed as farcical, literally smoke & mirrors Including trump himself, the second there is any pushback he folds like a cheap suit

Waltz is such a disappointment. I believe he was a Green Beret which is the most intellectually demanding of the special forces. It’s not “duh, kill”. Per Habeman and Swann, he’s at the UN bc he told #trumpepstein the truth too many times. Instead of resigning, he checked his balls & slinked off.

“People usually don’t come out and say ‘I am corrupt’” is the perfect response to the “I’ve never personally heard so and so say they’re doing X corrupt thing for Y corrupt reasons” line the admin likes to peddle as a defense of the indefensible

Waltz: Well, I've never heard them say they directly benefited from it Me: Yeah, no fucking shit, Sherlock. As it turns out, they don't make every individual trade themselves. They typically hide them behind their holdings and have others do the trades for them. What a fucking idiotic answer.
