And a Faux News talking head, with no Pentagon or government experience, for SecDef. The small amount of time he’s spent in management has not been impressive:

Quote

In 2012, Hegseth formed the political action committee MN PAC.[18] An APM Reports analysis found that while Hegseth ran the MN PAC political action committee, one third of its $15,000 in funds were spent on Christmas parties for families and friends. Campaign finance laws in Minnesota do not prohibit such spending. Less than half of the PAC's resources was spent on candidates, and as of March 2018, the PAC had closed its account with the state board.[18]

Hegseth was the executive director for Concerned Veterans for America, an advocacy group funded by the Koch brothers.[21] The group advocated greater privatization of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).[21] According to his LinkedIn page, he left the group in 2015.[21]

and hardcore Southern Baptist Minister (Mike Huckabee) as Ambassador to Israel.

Florida Republicans are also asking DeSantis to appoint Lara Trump to replace Rubio as senator.

No! How can she even be qualified, other than by pure cult nepotism?

And after the way the convicted felon stomped on him you'd think he'd show some spine to stand up for himself, but ALL of them are the worst humanity has to offer, very much like politburo lackeys in the USSR circa 1922-1953 - standing and clapping as long as they can.

Personal loyalty to the leader is the only qualifying metric. One of the pundits who sends me emails had dubbed Trump's cabinet "The Star Wars Bar" - what say you?

Trump considers himself a "disrupter." There's a difference between disruption and bad judgement/gross incompetence.

But... but... remember, he only hires the very BEST people. Unfortunately, those people might have a short shelf life.

Quit whining.

He just wants to 'shake things up' cuz that's how it's done in big business.






I am that Masked Man.

All you can do, is all you can do.

There’s trouble — it's time to play the sound of my people.

Your boos mean nothing to me, I've seen what you cheer for.

Insisting on your rights without acknowledging your responsibilities isn’t freedom, it’s adolescence.

I've been to the edge of the map, and there be monsters.

We are a government of laws, not men.

Everybody counts or nobody counts.

When a good man is hurt,
all who would be called good
must suffer with him.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

You and I have memories longer than the road that stretches out ahead.

There is no safety for honest men except
by believing all possible evil of evil men.

We don’t do focus groups. They just ensure that you don’t offend anyone, and produce bland inoffensive products. —Sir Jonathan Ive

An armed society is a polite society.
And hope is a lousy defense.

You make me pull, I'll put you down.

I *love* SIGs. It's Glocks I hate.

SecDef is the scariest nominee, Tulsi Gabbard a close second.

That guy Hegseth is deep into White Nationalism, neonazi stuff.
Not a person you want close to the world's most powerful military...much less in charge.

And Tulsi...are American assets (spies) overseas safe? I'm not so sure.

I wonder if there was anyone that he offered a position to that said, "I'm sorry, but I'm not qualified to do that job".

And the flip side, if there was anyone extremely qualified that said, "I'm sorry, but I don't want anything to do with your administration".

I presumed it's con, because would you really want General Fox protecting the hen houses?

And while you might be for killing roaches and rats, would you really want someone in charge who will be killing off all the people underneath them? It's likely that Dump's nominees will fire most of the people in the departments they take charge of, in the name of "efficiency" and "cost savings".

And these folks aren't really rats or roaches, they are just in Dump's mind. (Gazelles, like the hens, are perfectly inoffensive...)

That would be the action of someone wanting to do a good job.


And the flip side, if there was anyone extremely qualified that said, "I'm sorry, but I don't want anything to do with your administration".

That would be the action of someone already looking for another job.


Someone fearing not being qualified or fearing accepting the responsibility of important positions would be hearted by realizing they weren't selected for actual job qualifications.

They'd also be heartened realizing they wouldn't be held accountable for poor performance; their only real responsibility is to follow marching orders from The Boss, and he'd certainly tell them what's expected.
