Yay! Let's have a nuclear war with Iran!Rudy Giuliani suggested that Donald Trump plans to pull the U.S. out of the Iran nuclear agreement, pointing to the presence in the president’s inner circle of new Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and long-time foreign policy hawk John Bolton.
“We have a president who is tough,” Giuliani said Saturday at a conference organized in Washington by the Organization of Iranian-American Communities. “We have a president who is as committed to regime change as we are.”
“What’s going to happen to that agreement?” Giuliani asked the group, one of several Iranian organizations outside the country dedicated to toppling its government. He then pantomimed spitting on a piece of paper meant to represent the 2015 nuclear accord, drawing raucous cheers.

So, maybe if Gina Haspel doesn't get confirmed to CIA (and it won't be because she was involved with the torture tape destruction, but it could be because she's a woman) Rudy will be the next nominee. Or maybe more likely - I've been reading that Defense Secretary Mattis is becoming persona non grata in the Oval Office.
Or Jeff Sessions' job may be on the block, or at the very least, Rod Rosenstein's. Those are more suited to Giuliani's background, but when has Trump every considered experience and suitability when making an appointment? And what does Iran/national security have to do with a job at the DOJ?
Stay tuned.
...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
