It's November 14th. I'm Brian Dean Wright, former CIA operations officer, and this is The Wright Report.

A good day to you, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to The Right Report, Your Daily News, podcast.

I've got continuing special coverage for you this morning about those November election results because they are still shaping America and the world.

Let's be getting in Florida this morning, where Donald Trump is sitting with his team and choosing yet more cabinet officials.

Yesterday's big surprise was the new Attorney General, or AG, pick, and that is set to be the

former Representative Matt Gates of Florida. Now, a lot like the Pentagon pick, Mr. Gates was not

on anyone's expected short list of likely contenders to lead that Department of Justice, but nevertheless, this choice of Gates actually does make sense for three important reasons.

First, Reuters, New Service, and others have reported that Mr. Trump wants to battle back against

and then unwind the political weaponization that he says has taken over the Department of Justice

under Joe Biden and Democrats.

That would include things like rolling back the many investigations into Mr. Trump, led by

that special counsel, Jack Smith, along with the January 6th prosecution, amongst many others.

Well, Mr. Gates is promising to do all of those things, plus some.

Second, the new attorney general will need to

legally defend it Mr. Trump's expected executive orders around some very important policies like

deporting illegal aliens to ejecting DEI programs from the federal bureaucracy. And here too,

Mr. Gates is promising to be a faithful warrior to both Mr. Trump and the law.

Finally, Trump's staff is warning career DOJ prosecutors this morning that if they plan to be part of the Democrat resistance, they should leave or expect to be fired.

In fact, the Trump-DJ transition lead, Mr. Mark Paoletta, said this, quote, those DOJ employees who engage in so-called resistance against the duly elected president's lawful agenda would be subverting American democracy, end quote.

And following up on that is very much something that Mr. Gates is prepared to do, finding and firing those Democrat supporters in the DOJ who would unlawfully undermine Trump's constitutional authority.

In other words, and in short, Mr. Trump needs someone who is deeply loyal to the law and loyal to his political priorities.

And for Mr. Trump, that person is Mr. Matt Gates.
