Senator Rand Paul confronted a State Department nominee over shocking revelations about the Trump administration’s Syria policy. During a heated hearing, Paul exposed how Obama-era holdovers actively sabotaged President Trump’s America First agenda through lies and bureaucratic games.
Paul grilled nominee Joel Rayburn about his work with former envoy James Jeffrey, who admitted to hiding troop numbers from President Trump. The Kentucky senator called these actions “tantamount to treason,” accusing deep state actors of undermining our commander-in-chief. This wasn’t just policy disagreement – it was betrayal.
While Trump fought to bring troops home after defeating ISIS, bureaucrats like Jeffrey ran a “shell game” to keep endless wars alive. They lied to the president’s face, buried the truth, and put globalist interests ahead of American security. Our brave troops became pawns in their swampy chess match.
Rayburn dodged direct questions about whether he supported Jeffrey’s treasonous behavior. His weak defense of “working hard” rings hollow when the evidence shows career officials scheming against elected leadership. This is how the permanent Washington class thwarts the will of We the People.
The hearing exposed the rot in our federal bureaucracy. Unelected paper-pushers think they can override presidential orders and keep mothers’ sons stationed forever in foreign deserts. These arrogant elites view patriots like Trump as temporary nuisances to outmaneuver.
Every red-blooded American should be furious. If lying to Congress is a crime, why isn’t lying to the president? These swamp creatures belong in handcuffs, not collecting tax-funded pensions. Their actions endangered our troops and betrayed the voters who demanded an end to pointless wars.
Paul’s bold stand shows why we need more fighters in Washington. Weak Republicans would’ve nodded politely – real conservatives demand answers. The MAGA movement must purge every last deep state traitor blocking America’s revival.
This scandal proves President Trump was right to drain the swamp. The bureaucrats, the fake news media, and the warmongers all teamed up against him. But the people see through their lies. It’s time to finish what Trump started – no more games, no more betrayals, no more treason.
