Like Biden, Zionist Trump has betrayed “America First” with more Judeofascist and Neocon Israel First appointments; deployed his own son as a shill
Trump’s foreign policy team signals further drift from ‘America First’ to ‘Israel First’
Illusions harboured by supporters of Donald Trump that his “America First” agenda would prioritise US interests over foreign entanglements have been shattered, as key appointments reveal an “Israel First” policy taking shape. The selection of several key officials, including Michael Waltz as National Security Advisor, whose top campaign donor is the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), represents a stark departure from Trump’s previous promises to avoid military interventions in the Middle East.
Trump’s announcement over the weekend that pro-Israel hawks who served under his first cabinet like Mike Pompeo and Nikki Haley would not be reinvited to his cabinet, was greeted with optimism.
“The ‘stop Pompeo’ movement is great but it’s not enough. Right now we need maximum pressure to keep all neocons and war hawks out of the Trump administration” said well-known Trump supporter, Dave Smith on X. “They have had their time at the table and brought nothing but disaster to the world and this country.”
Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr, endorsed Smith’s comment adding, “Agreed💯💯💯!!! I’m on it”

The appointment of Waltz, a combat-decorated former Green Beret and Florida congressman, has shattered the illusion of an “America First” agenda, signalling a victory for the hawkish neoconservative wing of the Republican Party. A wing that Trump strongly criticised during the campaign trail for starting wars in the Middle East.
Waltz has been an outspoken advocate for aggressive military action in the Middle East, recently criticising the Biden administration’s approach to Gaza and Lebanon. He urged Biden to “let Israel finish the job”, even though the Occupation state is under investigation for genocide.
The shift towards a more aggressive foreign policy is further evidenced by Trump’s selection of Rep Elise Stefanik as his choice for UN Ambassador. Stefanik, also heavily backed by AIPAC, has championed numerous pro-Israel initiatives in Congress, including controversial legislation aimed at curtailing boycotts of Israel. Her bill sought to prevent American citizens and companies from providing information to foreign entities that could support boycotts of Israel.
Adding to this hawkish lineup, Trump is expected to name Senator Marco Rubio of Florida as Secretary of State. Rubio, another significant recipient of AIPAC funding, has consistently pushed for more aggressive US involvement in Middle East affairs…MORE…
