Midknight Review -- new and revised: Ortagus to replace the retiring Heather Nauert

(CNN)Secretary of State Mike Pompeo named former Fox News contributor Morgan Ortagus, a previous critic of President Donald Trump, as the new State Department spokesperson Wednesday.

"I am pleased to welcome Morgan Ortagus as our new State Department Spokesperson," Pompeo said in a statement. "Morgan brings outstanding credentials and a record of public service to the position. She has worked her entire career in financial services, consulting, and diplomacy. "

Ortagus, a Navy reserve officer, was the anticipated pick for the job and has extensive foreign policy experience. But in 2016, she slammed then-candidate Trump for an "isolationist foreign policy approach" and lambasted his mockery of the physically and mentally disabled as "disgusting," a CNN review found.

Editor: What is not mentioned in the above summary, is the fact that since the campaign, Ortagus has been a confirmed Trump supporter, choosing to disagree on occasion, but never to the level of being a "Never Trumper." Those of us who have followed Ortegus for the past three years, do not agree with CNN's characterization of the new spokeswoman as an anti-Trumper. In fact, that characterization is an outright lie.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
