News is breaking that President Trump has announced “a warrior for Truth and Honesty with the American Public” will be making a return to a leadership role in his upcoming administration.
President Trump is naming his former Director of National Intelligence from his first term to take up the Director’s chair once again for his second term, this time as the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency.

Ratcliffe served as President Trump’s primary intelligence advisor, and he is touting the Texan as having always spearheaded efforts to get at the heart of national security scandals, including the fake Russian collusion stories, the FBI’s Civil Liberty abuses through the FISA Courts, and Hunter Biden’s infamous laptop.
From what I can tell, President Trump seems to be prioritizing TRANSPARANCY WITH THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, rather than forcing it into the backseat under the overblown and overused excuse of “national security”.

Here are more details from Fox News:
Ratcliffe is one of several appointees announced in the past week who will fill key positions during Trump’s second term.
“From exposing fake Russian collusion to be a Clinton campaign operation, to catching the FBI’s abuse of Civil Liberties at the FISA Court, John Ratcliffe has always been a warrior for Truth and Honesty with the American Public,” Trump said in a statement. “When 51 intelligence officials were lying about Hunter Biden’s laptop, there was one, John Ratcliffe, telling the truth to the American People.”
Trump honored Ratcliffe in 2020 with the National Security Medal, the highest honor for distinguished achievement in the field of intelligence and national security.
Ratcliffe previously served under Trump as Director of National Intelligence (DNI).
Check out this clip from President Trump’s first term when Ratcliffe pointed out the specifics being twisted by both the media and the democratic enemies who were already trying to wage lawfare against Trump.
And if there was any doubt about whether we’re getting a bulldog here or another Jeff Sessions, here he is going on Fox Business and calling the top ranking Biden officials all co-conspirators!
Your new CIA Director is a certified G.

“I don’t think it’s that they are ignoring it, I think it’s that they’re scared. Look, you have to keep in mind that they’re all co-conspirators in this. They’re all complicit in this…
They were all part of this and they’re all complicit in this and there is so much at stake, and if it unravels, it’s not just political folks that will take a fall on this…” If it all unravels, it’s not just the political folks that will take a fall on this? Well, it’s allllll unraveling for them.”
Here is your badass future CIA Director saying that the mainstream media were co-conspirators in the hoaxes against President Trump and that they are complicit in everything.

You may have noticed yesterday we reported that Kash Patel was the lead candidate for this post, but we said we were waiting to hear from President Trump himself.
Now we have.
Now it’s official.
Here is the official Statement from President Donald J. Trump:
Check out this clip from Tucker Carlson’s show back before he got the boot from Fox News for telling the truth way too much.
Tucker had Ratcliffe on his show talking about the Wuhan lab leak “theory”, as it was called back then. You know… as in a CONSPIRACY theory?
John Ratcliffe, who had access to more intelligence than nearly anyone else on the planet, said flat out — the specific Coronavirus we all came to know as Covid-19 was almost certainly leaked from a Chinese lab attempting to weaponize the raw virus… with funding from our own NIH.

The intelligence community is about to face a reckoning like never before (Watch clip to why).

President Trump said that John Ratcliffe “has always been a warrior for Truth and Honesty with the American Public”.
He also pointed out that this will be the first time in history that someone has held both of the highest intelligence positions in the United States — Director of the CIA, and formerly that of the Director of National Intelligence.
See more here, from The Hill:
“John Ratcliffe has always been a warrior for Truth and Honesty with the American Public,” Trump said in a statement.”
“I look forward to John being the first person ever to serve in both of our Nation’s highest Intelligence positions. He will be a fearless fighter for the Constitutional Rights of all Americans, while ensuring the Highest Levels of National Security, and PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH.”
Ratcliffe served as one of Trump’s Directors of National Intelligence, but faced a rocky path to the position.
Trump in 2019 withdrew his nomination after pushback over concerns that Ratcliffe did not have a sufficient security background or relevant experience to lead an office that coordinates all U.S. intelligence agencies. He also faced questions over whether he had embellished his experience working terrorism cases as a former prosecutor on his resume.
“Our great Republican Congressman John Ratcliffe is being treated very unfairly by the LameStream Media,” Trump wrote at the time.
Trump nominated him again just a few months later, prompting backlash from Democrats.
Then-Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) called him a “highly partisan operative” while then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) complained he “has shown an unacceptable embrace of conspiracy theories.”
Unfortunately for Pelosi and Schumer, their consistent pushback against a legitimate dig to find the truth on issues important to the American people and the survival of our nation as a Constitutional Republic — as opposed to just some democratic mob run amok — really doesn’t carry much weight, at this point.
The problems President Trump encountered putting someone like John Ratcliffe in a position to weed out the bureaucracy and focus on what actually matters, in spite of those who would love to continue the strategy of distractions that has characterized the Biden-Harris administration… is over.
President Trump’s mandate is clear. And I expect him to have the people he wants in the positions he wants, this time around — and a lot more clarity to boot about the dangers of allowing snakes to lurk in the grass. Which, if you are complicit in the concealment of truths that should never have been concealed from the American public… that is likely a very scary thing.
To those people I say: too bad, so sad.
