Spot on, Alan. I also agree with his pick for Sec Def. I noted a couple of general officers stating that Hegseth is unqualified. The problem with appointing former generals is simple. They were political operatives in their careers. That's how they moved up the ranks. Hegseth is a proven combat veteran. He is superbly qualified. He will protect the force from needless conflicts.
Gaetz is a rope a dope. His nomination is to let the Democrats waste all their energy opposing him or making deals for others to drop him. We'll see how it works out.
Always facts, always fair. Thanks professor The DEI generals have to go. They made the wrong choices for the wrong political reasons. Thank you for your service, sincerely, but too many bad decisions have been made that endanger the country.
Ill go one further than that. He can fire Generals and if any general does not follow his legal orders, he can have them charged with insubordination under the UCMJ!
Brilliant. Truth and sense. We must uphold the constitution by, first of all, understanding it and teaching it. The loss of basic civics classes in public education is unraveling us. Thanks for calling out those who are misleading the American public.
I have a lot of respect for Prof. Dershowitz and have always enjoyed his Dershow videos. The most surprising part of this video is that there is someone who still watches CNN!
Matt Gaetz will be a great choice. This is what the majority of American people voted for. A person who will shakeup and get the country back on the right track is what the President is doing!
I may not always agree with you Mr. Dershowitz, but I know that you will always be on the side of what you believe is right and true to our founding documents, because you understand how brilliant they really are. If we were following their advice, we wouldn't be where we are today.
The hearings will backfire on weak senators & trump can then slide someone else in who they otherwise would oppose & Gaetz can be put in rubios spot & lara trump in gaetz's spot
(3) Things concern me regarding the military. The (1st) Gen. Milley’s insubordination. By independently contacting the Chinese military leadership with his wild allegations, he betrayed the Commander-in-Chief & the country. He should have been fired immediately, prosecuted under the UCMJ & investigated by a Congressional Inquiry. (2nd) DEI (3rd) Bloated ranks. In WW2 we had over 16 million troops & 7-4star generals. Today, we have less than 2 million troops & 44-4star generals.
Detshowitz. I'm glad I stuck w you when my longtime friend fired me from friendship when I wouldn't subscribe to his Democratic thought police test which required me to badmouth Trump. The constitution is a better friend to me than he was
Former Army officer here. Why are there different physical standards for men and women in the combat arms? DEI or affirmative action - same thing to me.
It is so important that the DOJ and FBI are reformed, Gaetz will be a necessary tiger and shark to restore the DOJ and FBI to its former high ground reputation and integrity. Having an AG that only does 50% clean up isn’t sufficient. 4 senators must yield whether they like it or not because the reform importance is priority over personal distaste of the nominee.
The appointment of generals are very political. Every year the President sends the list of general promotions for Congressional approval. General pay is also tied to what congress gets paid. That being said, I have no sympathy for today's generals, due to a system where they are promoted based politics and not merit.
During peace time promotions to Flag level is always political. If a war breaks out those that are incompetent will be promoted and replaced by competent generals (eventually). It’s just an application of the Peter Principal.
Dershowitz, of all the people who would allow false allegations to stop a Man from taking a position, you sir should not be that man. You know what it is when the machine comes after you. Matt Gaetz is a lion among hamsters. We who support trump look forward to having every single one of his nominees receiving full consent.
Alan can you please explain why judge Marshawn is not being disbarred for interfering with an election and this egregious ruling and telling people that Trump is convicted
don't stop there, you RINO, ALL anti-Trump judges should be dismissed and jurors should not have a say in guilty verdicts, only in non-guilty verdicts. Trump should declare martial law and incarcerate Biden and his crime family, Michael Flynn will be his only general -- enough with the swampy compromises
@ my point is that Trump was noticeably absent from the leadership debate, in spite of Tucker Carlson raising a furor over it. Why didn’t Trump voice his support for Scott? Could it be, that by staying out of it, he would get a little good Will from the majority leader , knowing that he’s gonna need it to get his picks confirmed?
@@jeffhreid I don't follow Tucker. I definitely think the Senate Repubs are going to work with Trump. But, it isn't going to be a slam dunk. Unqualified candidates like Gaetz won't get the support of moderate Repubs....and it only takes 4 to derail any nomination (or law).
Powerful , energetic , ultra rational argumented defense of the Constitution‼️ (not emotional)… and a call to “come to sense” for those emotion hates of public figures & comunicators
Professor, I wanted to share some information about my wife’s family history during World War II. She is Dutch, and her Protestant Christian family courageously resisted the Nazis, protecting two Jewish children throughout the conflict. Unfortunately, her grandfather was captured by the Nazis and severely beaten, resulting in a collapsed lung. After the war, those who collaborated with the Nazis faced retribution from Dutch patriots. My wife invites you to read about the Dutch Resistance and also about 'Operation Manna'. Just as 'Antifa' or the 'pro-Hamas' protestors do not define America, so hooligans in Amsterdam do not define the Netherlands. We hope that you change your mind and, if the opportunity arises, that you will visit the Netherlands again. In the meantime, my wife and I stand with Israel and the IDF. “h'yavrech otech vishmarech aman”
The branches of the military are kept separate to make a military coup difficult. Hasn’t consolidation of FBI, CIA, NSA and other federal agencies similarly given them too much power?
Yes, and especially since they used that power to change the outcome of an election, like with the suppression of the laptop story, and use it to conduct impeachments against their opposition, based on lies.
Please professor, advise Trump about the relentless effort of those evil people to minimize his constitutional powers, we the people elected him and thus we support and trust ALL his policies, they are good for this country and the world 😢.
Thank you for sharing your experiences, insights, thoughts, and intelligence about The Constitution and knowledge of what is happening in Israel. ❤🇺🇸🇮🇱♥️
Enjoy your commentary. In Canada on Nov 11 several Remembrance Day memorial activities were marred by Hamas -Palistine protests. The mayor of a city in Ontario is allowing a celebration for Sinwar and other so called martyrs. The symbol of Remembrance Day, the poppy was turned into a hateful symbol for the terrorist groups and Islamic protest songs were played in some education facilities. Sadly nothing was done by the authorities , this country is so lost.
I'm retired at 47, went from Grace to Grace. This video here reminds me of my transformation from a nobody to good home, honest wife and 35k biweekly and a good daughter full of love ❤️
Hello, how do you make such a weekly?? I'm a born Christian, and sometimes I feel so down of myself because of low finance, but I still believe in God.
YES! That's exactly her name (Laura Lee Fair) I watched her interview on CNN News and so many people recommended highly about her and her trading skills.❤️
The people want to see action against the elites who have committed crimes and avoid what the average citizen would go through simply because of money and power. Many think Gaetz will go after those who have been immune and perhaps show to the people that maybe just maybe the American myth of "equal justice under the law" can be rectified.
Alan your completely wrong on Gaetz, you must want a rhino that want hold anyone accountable, we need a high Sherriff like Gaetz that will enforce the law, we don't need the rhino's you support,
I think you are on to something. Floating Gaetz name felt like a tactical move to divert attention from who Trump really wants as AG. Its setting up a bargaining position. Should be interesting to watch it unfold...
"Fired his ass" Love the education! thank you for the clarification on civilian control of the military. Hope and pray the Palestinians want peace some day
Thank you Professor Dershowitz for reiterating the historical precedents of the Presidents from Lincoln Roosevelt and Truman to select and sack the generals.
The republicans need Cruz in the senate to maintain their majority. Texas is not as red as Florida so it would be risky. Marco Rubio can be readily replaced with a MAGA republican.
Jonathan Turley will make an ideal and great Attorney General. Yes , he’s a democrat but he’s always been fair, just and honest . He made honest and nonpartisan opinions on almost anything. By Amelia
I was hoping for someone else. Nothing agianst Gaetz i just think we have few better choices. Ironically Dershowitz seems to be more agreeable on how Trump is setting up his cabinet. Never thought i would see that day.
What are the preservation of evidence obligations that exist when one administration transitions to another one? Should anyone author a formal preservation letter and deliver it to the DoJ and other agencies? Great podcast!
I'm so fed up with the house and senate fking things up. I'm all in for Trump recessing both for 11 days and appointing who he wants. Who cares who doesn't like it. Get-r-done.
Spot on, Alan. I also agree with his pick for Sec Def. I noted a couple of general officers stating that Hegseth is unqualified. The problem with appointing former generals is simple. They were political operatives in their careers. That's how they moved up the ranks. Hegseth is a proven combat veteran. He is superbly qualified. He will protect the force from needless conflicts.
Absolutely right on!
Trump: “Merrick Garland, you’re fired. But don’t leave the states I’m not through with you yet.”
😅
Thanks for illustrating how dumb Trumptards really are. (and yeah, I too voted for him this time but I didn’t drink the idiot cool-aid)
We need an ttorney General who has both the willingness and ability to clean out the widespread corruption in the DOJ and FBI.
They may find one but I don't think it's Gaetz.
Gaetz is a rope a dope. His nomination is to let the Democrats waste all their energy opposing him or making deals for others to drop him. We'll see how it works out.
Rand Paul
Always facts, always fair. Thanks professor
The DEI generals have to go. They made the wrong choices for the wrong political reasons. Thank you for your service, sincerely, but too many bad decisions have been made that endanger the country.
Gaetz is in…be offended. Traditional republicans need to get with the program. We need reform not a consensus candidate
Righto! The operative word is TRADITIONAL. That’s what the voter did NOT want. Let’s hope Gaetz somehow is confirmed.👍🏻
You are wrong. The American public does not want miscreants to serve as Attorney General. You need to get with the program.
I like Matt. He had the balls to fight.
Ill go one further than that. He can fire Generals and if any general does not follow his legal orders, he can have them charged with insubordination under the UCMJ!
You mean like lie about re-moving troops from Syria?
@@MrGamman3yt Yep!
Brilliant. Truth and sense. We must uphold the constitution by, first of all, understanding it and teaching it. The loss of basic civics classes in public education is unraveling us. Thanks for calling out those who are misleading the American public.
A consensus from the swamp is probably not a good thing. Way too many RINO’s. Gaetz would do a great job as AG
It’s pronounced Gates btw. Not Gets
I have a lot of respect for Prof. Dershowitz and have always enjoyed his Dershow videos. The most surprising part of this video is that there is someone who still watches CNN!
Matt is exactly what is needed , more than qualified. Go Team Trump👍🇨🇦
Matt Gaetz will be a great choice.
This is what the majority of American people voted for.
A person who will shakeup and get the country back on the right track is what the President is doing!
Nobody voted for Matt Gaetz for A.G. Gaetz need to get back in his cage.
I may not always agree with you Mr. Dershowitz, but I know that you will always be on the side of what you believe is right and true to our founding documents, because you understand how brilliant they really are. If we were following their advice, we wouldn't be where we are today.
3 and 4 star generals might be rethinking their politics right now, no politics in the military leadership
HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN 💯🇺🇸🗽
Matt is exactly what America needs and wants. He is a bulldog and will clean that office up.
Both Trump and Gaetz know it will be hard to get Gaetz confirmed, yet Gaetz resigned right away.
There is already something else in the works.
The hearings will backfire on weak senators & trump can then slide someone else in who they otherwise would oppose & Gaetz can be put in rubios spot & lara trump in gaetz's spot

So great! I love it when Alan gets worked up defending the Constitution and the chain of command. Very libertarian ;))
That is why it is called COMMANDER IN CHIEF
The traditional Republicans need to get on board. We the people are sick and tired of this business as usual.
I would like to see Jonathan Turley as Attorney General
Former Army officer here. Why are there different physical standards for men and women in the combat arms? DEI or affirmative action - same thing to me.
ABSOLUTELY
Truman fired MacArthur after the Inchon Landing, one of the greatest military campaigns in modern warfare...
And Mliley deserves a court marshal as well.
Thank you, Mr. Dershowitz, for your common sense constitutionally based commentary,.
During World War 2, the United States had 12 - 4 Star Generals.
Currently, the United States has 44 - 4 Star Generals.
Why?
Wow 🧐
Wow 🧐
The MIC we were warned about?
Inflation - it's everywhere
@@billmoughan9562Especially around Milley’s waistline.
Keep them straight Alan! Thank you!

Absolutely nominate Gaetz. If not approved then it will be public as to which senators are against the peoples choice
You say Ponetta is smart & knows what he is doing? If true then he is also an evil liar.
M. Garland was a consensus pick and Alan approved. How did that work out?
Does the President have the authority to fire the Chairman of the Fed? He appointed him, I assume he can fire him?
Love the show.
Thankful we have you in America...
Wow Alan! Your Best Video Ever!
Wray needs to go. The raid on Mar a Lago was inexcuseable.
This will be a test for John Thune. If John Thune cannot get Matt Gaetz confirmed as Attorney General, John Thune has failed.
Laughably wrong! 🤡🤡
This may be why Trump didn’t weigh into the senate leadership contest, Thune owes Trump
@@jeffhreid Thune does NOT owe Trump. Scott was Trump's closest ally, and he came in 3rd. The Senate will defend its independence....somewhat.
@ my point is that Trump was noticeably absent from the leadership debate, in spite of Tucker Carlson raising a furor over it. Why didn’t Trump voice his support for Scott? Could it be, that by staying out of it, he would get a little good Will from the majority leader , knowing that he’s gonna need it to get his picks confirmed?

Gaetz will be a recess appointment. He will go through.
Powerful , energetic , ultra rational argumented defense of the Constitution‼️ (not emotional)… and a call to “come to sense” for those emotion hates of public figures & comunicators
Matt Gaetz might actually do his job. Can't have that! Who knows how many senators would end up on trial?
I think General Milley is playing a part and is like a mole
Milley should be court martialed for what he did with the Chinese.
@@bryanchezick7656 but he could have been controlled opposition.
Professor Dershowitz is even diplomatic when being commended on his diplomatic views 😄you gotta love him!😅❤️

Carter fired General Singlaub for publicly disagreeing with his decisions on Korea.
Have a great day!
What they don't "want to see" is someone that can expose their hidden crimes. Come on Alan. Wake up.
They are not dumb , just manipulative
I appreciate your sober well thought out commentary.
The branches of the military are kept separate to make a military coup difficult. Hasn’t consolidation of FBI, CIA, NSA and other federal agencies similarly given them too much power?
Yes, and especially since they used that power to change the outcome of an election, like with the suppression of the laptop story, and use it to conduct impeachments against their opposition, based on lies.
I like the idea of Jonathan Turley or Paxton from TX as well for AG.
Please professor, advise Trump about the relentless effort of those evil people to minimize his constitutional powers, we the people elected him and thus we support and trust ALL his policies, they are good for this country and the world 😢.
Thank you for sharing your experiences, insights, thoughts, and intelligence about The Constitution and knowledge of what is happening in Israel. ❤🇺🇸🇮🇱♥️
Your so wrong Alan!!! Matt's gonna get the AG Hat, and that's..... a fact!!!
I say that people who don’t know what the Constitution says while speaking about these issues are ignorant.

Dersh for Attorney General.
Thank you Professor Dershowitz for reiterating the historical precedents of the Presidents from Lincoln Roosevelt and Truman to select and sack the generals.
Sessions as a major poon with no heart to fight. He got rolled over.
Ted Cruz would be a much better choice in my mind.
I'd put Ted Cruz on the SCOTUS
Greg Abbott for AG
Trump is saving Ted Cruz for SCOTUS, should a vacancy occur.
The republicans need Cruz in the senate to maintain their majority. Texas is not as red as Florida so it would be risky. Marco Rubio can be readily replaced with a MAGA republican.
Panetta fired McChrystal? He's a hypocrite
Jonathan Turley will make an ideal and great Attorney General. Yes , he’s a democrat but he’s always been fair, just and honest . He made honest and nonpartisan opinions on almost anything. By Amelia
Dam, this guy is so consistent.
The biggest mistake Truman made, firing MacArthur.
I'm loving watching you Mr Dershowitz
America is a business. Everyone knows it. Its about time a business minded administration stands at the helm.
I think it's his ploy to get a bunch of DOJ employees to quit. He's not serious about this.
After all his picks I was like, "What's up with that pick?" I like his voice in the Congress but that made no sense.
We isn't he qualified?
Where does General Michael Flynn stand in all of this?
JONATHAN TURLEY is the best AG
I was hoping for someone else. Nothing agianst Gaetz i just think we have few better choices. Ironically Dershowitz seems to be more agreeable on how Trump is setting up his cabinet. Never thought i would see that day.
Alan, you have been wrong in the past. I am hopeful that Matt Gaetz will get AG.
I'm glad he didn't forget to mention the Coast Guard. People always seem to forget that branch of the military.
Blessings from Finland.
I've been waiting for Trump to make some appointment errors... Noem ? now Gaetz ? As for firing generals... he should can all the DEI's
The majority of the US population- at least those who voted for Trump- are smart enough to know this.
