In a move that has predictably sent the woke media establishment into a tailspin, President Donald J. Trump announced that constitutional scholar and DHS official Paul Ingrassia will head the Office of Special Counsel (OSC)—a key federal watchdog agency tasked with protecting whistleblowers and enforcing political impartiality within the government workforce.
Ingrassia, a former contributor to The Daily Caller and The Gateway Pundit, is no stranger to the America First movement. A Cornell Law graduate and former White House liaison for Homeland Security, Ingrassia has earned President Trump’s trust through steadfast loyalty, sharp legal insight, and his unwavering commitment to constitutional principles.
Trump made the announcement on May 29 via Truth Social, writing:
“I am pleased to nominate Paul Ingrassia to head the United States Office of Special Counsel (OSC)… Paul is a highly respected attorney, writer, and Constitutional Scholar… Congratulations Paul!”
Of course, the announcement should’ve been a routine personnel update. Ingrassia already holds a senior role within Homeland Security. But because he doesn’t bow to the altar of leftist orthodoxy—and dares to challenge establishment narratives—the mainstream media is acting like the sky is falling.
NBC News and other liberal outlets immediately launched a smear campaign, labeling Ingrassia a “far-right commentator” and dredging up every politically incorrect opinion he’s ever posted. His thought crimes? Praising men’s rights advocate Andrew Tate, calling for accountability over the 2020 election, and boldly stating what millions of Americans believe—that January 6 was not an “insurrection” but a protest gone awry, exploited by political elites for power.
The pearl-clutchers in corporate media were particularly scandalized by Ingrassia’s support for strong border policies, criticism of career swamp creatures like Mike Pence, and his refusal to play nice with the ruling class. Heaven forbid someone in Washington actually challenge the permanent bureaucracy.
Ingrassia responded with grace and resolve, posting:
“It’s the highest honor to have been nominated to lead the Office of Special Counsel under President Trump! My team and I will make every effort to restore competence and integrity to the Executive Branch… OSC will be made Safe, Fair, and Greater than ever before!!”
That’s exactly the kind of leadership the OSC needs—someone who will clean house, protect real whistleblowers (not partisan leakers), and hold government employees accountable under the Hatch Act, no matter their political affiliation.
Meanwhile, Trump reminded the country that real progress is being made. In the same post, he touted the record-high S\&P, the most secure border in U.S. history (according to former ICE Director Tom Homan), and warned Senate Republicans like Rand Paul not to obstruct the administration’s economic recovery plans.
Bottom line: Paul Ingrassia’s nomination is yet another signal that Trump 47 isn’t here to play politics—he’s here to drain the swamp, restore law and order, and put America First. If the Left is this furious, you know Trump made the right choice.
