Senator Rand Paul confronted a State Department nominee over shocking anti-Trump actions by deep state bureaucrats. During a fiery Senate hearing, Paul exposed how Obama-era holdovers sabotaged President Trump’s America First agenda through deception and betrayal.
Paul grilled Joel Rayburn over his ties to James Jeffrey, a former envoy accused of lying about troop levels in Syria. Jeffrey admitted playing “shell games” to hide the truth from President Trump after ISIS was defeated. This deliberate deception blocked Trump’s plan to bring our heroes home.
Rayburn awkwardly dodged questions about whether he supported Jeffrey’s treasonous behavior. He called Jeffrey a “close colleague” but refused to condemn the scheme. Patriots know this is how the swamp operates—career bureaucrats protecting each other instead of serving the people.
Hiding troop numbers from a sitting president isn’t just dishonest—it’s dangerous. These reckless games put American lives at risk while empowering foreign terrorists. Deep state elites clearly thought they knew better than our democratically elected commander-in-chief.
The hearing revealed the toxic rot in Washington’s unaccountable bureaucracy. While Trump fought to end endless wars, arrogant officials worked behind the scenes to undermine him. This is exactly why voters sent Trump to drain the swamp in the first place.
Real Americans are sick of pencil-pushing globalists thinking they rule over us. James Jeffrey’s actions show contempt for both the presidency and the millions who demanded change. Every politician who enabled this betrayal should face consequences.
President Trump’s America First policies brought peace through strength. But shadowy figures like Jeffrey kept us stuck in foreign quagmires for their own power. It’s time to purge these anti-Trump saboteurs from every government agency.
Hardworking taxpayers deserve leaders who put America first—not sneaky bureaucrats playing games with our soldiers’ lives. Rand Paul’s bold stand reminds us why draining the swamp remains the battle of our generation. The fight for accountability continues.
