  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

In candid interviews with Vanity Fair, White House chief of staff Susie Wiles opened up about President Donald Trump and his Cabinet over the first year of Trump's second term.

Trump ... has an "alcoholic's personality." Wiles said Trump, who has repeatedly said he doesn't drink alcohol, said he "operates [with] a view that there’s nothing he can’t do. Nothing, zero, nothing."

She called Vice President JD Vance a "conspiracy theorist for a decade" and White House Office of Management and Budget Director Russell Vought "a right-wing absolute zealot." Billionaire Elon Musk, she said, was an "odd duck" and "avowed ketamine [user]."

Wiles, responding to Vanity Fair’s articles, said it is a "disingenuously framed hit piece on me and the finest President, White House staff, and Cabinet in history."

[Vance:] "I haven't looked at the article. I, of course, have heard about it. But conspiracy theorist, sometimes I am a conspiracy theorist but I only believe in the conspiracy theories that are true"

Susie Wiles, JD Vance, and the “Junkyard Dogs”: The White House Chief of Staff On Trump’s Second Term (Part 1 of 2)


Throughout the first year of Donald Trump’s second administration, Vanity Fair writer Chris Whipple has interviewed Wiles amid each moment of crisis. This insider’s account joins a portfolio of portraits for an unflinching, up-close look at power—and peril.

I'm really surprised that Wiles agreed to be interviewed like that. I guess she didn't sign the NDA. not that they worked the first term.

Obviously, Vanity Fair wrote a hit piece taking much of what Susie Wiles said way out of context.

Nothing there is new and could be derived from their public appearances. If MAGA is ok with that, this article should not be a shock to anyone paying attention.

She meant an alcoholic's personality in a good way.

...and you know this how? Read her response. It's a non denial denial.

But in the mean time, 12pm is still noon. I mean she isn't saying anything people don't already know.

I will tell you one thing.
If they ever after the twenty third attempt indict either Jim Comey or Tish James, she is going to be one heck of a witness.

LOL. You have misunderstood her response. But, I am sure that you believe Vanity Fair because you want to.

It was eleven different sessions. She was talking her head off. So do you think given eleven sessions they had someone taking notes, or writing short hand or just stuck a recorder in front of her. You can bet it's all recorded.

One of the biggest take aways is Trump's Venezuela actions are not about drugs. It's about regime change, as if people already didn't know.
So they are literally killing people in boats. Enacting military "don't shoot these people" as the very example of being a war crime in military training.

What she said doesn't shock me in the least. That she freely said it is surprising.

I refuse to believe that you didn't know or can't accept that she was telling the truth. What's the big deal? Almost everything she is quoted as saying were the facts of the matter. Yeah, the 'spin' from the admin's point of view was omitted. But what on earth can you complain about? Even Vance admitted he's a conspiracist. And then moronically qualified in the way he did. Which was like saying that he didn't believe in ghosts...except for the ones that do exist.

We don’t even need insiders to tell us who Trump truly is. He shows us on the daily with his press conferences and unhinged Truth Social posts. Insiders just corroborate what is already observed.
