Richard "Ric" Grenell, the former acting director of National Intelligence in President-elect Trump's first administration, is reportedly under consideration to be special envoy for the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

In that role, Trump needs someone with the character and moral fortitude to stand up to CIA and State Department deep staters who would attempt to hinder or sabotage Trump’s plans. Grenell has shown that needed strength, IMHO.
ZEEPERS will hate Grenell, I predict.
