Kaszos

Bondi is next on the chopping block. Kash is a close second.

This sudden withdrawal from the Epstein stuff is a bridge too far. Too much of the MAGA narrative is sown into this topic, and people have invested too much already.

The fact of the matter is, once you let go of the Epstein stuff… you let go of any chance to “cleanse” DC of political opponents which was central to this entire movement.

We’re getting calls for Blondi to resign. It seems Loomer’s nickname is making the rounds. If Trump wants to simmer things down someone’s head needs to roll and it’s going to have to be a key figure. I figured maybe Kash was an easier choice but I don’t think he’s enough red meat to quell the base at this stage.

I also note there’s major gymnastics going on to avoid any implication of this being Trump’s call. Teflon Don is still Teflon to his base…. With that said it doesn’t do him good if confidence is lost in key movers of his administration… heads need to roll… including a big one.

Edit to add: Any removal of a major offical won’t be done for a good few months… and after things simmer. I predict in 2026 both Hegseth and possibly Bondi will quietly leave over the next 6 months minimum. Would look too weak to do it now.
