tRUMP hired the antithesis of who was needed for the job, so this is a very long list. A veritable repository of incompetents. Some have left, but many left their mark as a stain on America and their reputations. Referring to such lists will remind you of the work America has in the future to cleanse the swamp.
Actually, some skills are required. (not satire or The ONION) Be a racist or a bigot, a cabana boy, trucker, sell Amway, be a landscaper, caddy, petty thief, money launderer, influence peddler, foreign agent, high school bully , scientology quack, wedding planner, bodyguard, vitamin salesman, the owner of a scented-candle company, say something weird and dumb like abortions cause breast cancer or Obamacare is worse than slavery, work for Goldman, be a failed CEO who needs a polished reputation, be a failed CEO who made life-saving medication unaffordable, sell anti-aging medicine, be an anti-vaxer, birther, bootlicker, wife-beater, event planner, shop lifter, alcoholic, plagiarizer, gambler, worked for FOX or Breitbart previously, have big boobs and a pretty face, be a rich donor or sycophantic Coverup General and you will have a job before we know it!
First, a few words from the Dumpsterfire himself:
“You have to keep great people around you,” tRUMP said. “You have to motivate them. You always have to be on top of them. And you have to be smarter than they are. I hear so many times, ‘Oh, I want my people to be smarter than I am.’ It’s a lot of crap. You want to be smarter than your people, if possible.”
“Very organized process taking place as I decide on Cabinet and many other positions. I am the only one who knows who the finalists are!” Tweeted tRUMP, 15 Nov 2016, as he began his Kim Kardashian reality show “presidency.”
Feb 26th 2020: When referring to the coronavirus, tRUMP said in a tweet that the country is "in great shape!" The unused White House briefing room is finally getting to hear from the king, and it is so that he can give Mike Pence the duty of taking the heat from the virus outbreak so it won’t hurt his reelection… He literally lied about the numbers of infected (15 when it is 60 he said it 5 times and will likely say it more) right beside the Doctors and experts that have been contradicting him as they understand tRUMP is down playing everything to prop up the stock market.
Mike Pence is taking over for the post of ‘senior director for global health security and biothreats’ on the NSC which was eliminated in May 2019. When asked about Mike Pence’s expertise on the subject, tRUMP said Pence is “very good at what he does...”
SWAMPING the SWAMP
Corporate takeover of the government: via@Public_Citizen
A coal lobbyist runs EPA
A pharma exec runs HHS
An oil lobbyist runs DOI
A Raytheon lobbyist runs DOD
A Verizon lawyer runs FCC
A corporate lawyer runs DOL
A pyramid scheme sales family runs DOE
A conflicted shipping heiress runs DOT
A banking exec runs Treasury
A steel lobbyist is a US trade rep
And a failed mail-order meat salesman runs the country
In the Trump administration, conflicts of interest are basically a job requirement:
As of Oct 14th. 2019 The top three jobs at the Dep't of Homeland Security are still vacant (with no Senate-confirmed officer) for a combined 924 days:
tRUMP has had more lobbyists in his Cabinet in 3 years than any President in history has had in 8! And yet tRUMP Tweeted Dec 10, 2019: “Day after day, we are exposing the depravity, dishonesty and sickness of the corrupt Washington establishment — and with your help, we are going to complete the mission and DRAIN THE SWAMP”
As missiles fly… Do Americans even know that the decision makers are short staffed or non-existent? Oh right, only HE can do it… “Reminder that as this crisis escalates, we have no Director of National Intelligence, no Dep Dir, no Homeland Security Secretary, no Dep Sec, no head of CBP or ICE, no State Dept Under Sec of Arms Control, no Asst Sec for Europe, and no Navy Sec.”
BEFORE AND AFTER
Join for the Grift, stay for the abuse, with thanks to @Public_Citizen
John Kelly Before: General John Kelly is doing a great job as Chief of Staff. I could not be happier or more impressed - and this Administration continues to..
John Kelly after “When I terminated John Kelly, which I couldn’t do fast enough, he knew full well that he was way over his head. Being Chief of Staff just wasn’t for him. He came in with a bang, went out with a whimper, but like so many X’s, he misses the action & just can’t keep his mouth shut,…”
Michael Cohen Before: “a fine person with a wonderful family.”
Michael Cohen After: “If anyone is looking for a good lawyer, I would strongly suggest that you don’t retain the services of Michael Cohen!” “a weak person,” “not a very smart person,” a “bad lawyer,” and “a fraudster.”
Gordon Sondland Before: "A really good man, and great American"
Gordon Sondland After: "I hardly know" him.
Steve Bannon Before: chief strategist, which Trump created just for him calling him “tough and smart.”
Steve Bannon After: “Sloppy Steve” who “cried when he got fired and begged for his job.”
Omarosa Manigault Newman Before: a “loyal friend,” and trusted confidante
Omarosa Manigault Newman After: “not smart” “lowlife” and earned the nickname “wacky Omarosa.” He said he’d only kept her around because she said nice things about him.
Jerome Powell Before: “He’s strong, he’s committed, he’s smart,” . “I am confident that with Jay as a wise steward of the Federal Reserve, it will have the leadership it needs in the years to come.
” Jerome Powell After: Powell is “clueless” and “letting us down.”
Anthony Scaramucci Before: “Anthony is a person I have great respect for, and he will be an important addition to this administration,”
Anthony Scaramucci After: “totally incapable” and “a highly unstable ‘nut job.’”
Jeff Sessions Before: One of the first major politicians to back Trump’s campaign, Sessions was rewarded with the job of attorney general. But after committing the original sin of recusing himself from the Russia probe, Sessions was no longer worthy of Trump’s praise.
Jeff Sessions After: a “total joke” and “mentally retarded,”, “a dumb southerner,” and “Mr. Magoo,”
Rex Tillerson Before: a “world class player and dealmaker.” "...one of the truly great business leaders of the world,” Trump declared that he would “be a star!”
Rex Tillerson After: “dumb as a rock” and “lazy as hell.”
Centralization of power is a KEY trait of authoritarian regimes
ARE YOU READY FOR THIS? tRUMP can nominate yet does not. tRUMP has been appointing loyal people to ACT in the position. WHY? Because * bypassing Congressional confirmations to fill key cabinet positions or leaving them empty, means they are unable to oust him with 25th amendment…*
The VP and 14 cabinet members can oust him, but those who are left are rich toadies or just toadies who will not do it, no matter what. The possibility that they got positions to be cleared by pardons or to lift their poor status as human beings are also very high. EG: Mnuchin with Sears fraud and foreclosure debacles.
It is all an ACT when it comes to this reality shitshow:
Now running DHS:
Acting Secretary
Acting Deputy Secretary
ACTING GENERAL COUNSEL
Acting Under Secretary for Management
Acting CBP Commissioner
Acting ICE Director
Acting USCIS DIrector
Acting FEMA Administrator (only one a nominee has been declared)
Key areas run by acting secretary as sole leadership spot
Acting Labor secretary
Acting Defense secretary
Acting DHS secretary
Acting Secretary of the Army
Acting Secretary of the Air Force
Acting UN ambassador
Acting SBA administrator
Acting CBP Commiss
Acting FDA Commiss
Acting FEMA director
Acting ICE director
Acting USCIS director
An Acting OMB Director
Acting FAA administrator
Acting White House Chief of Staff
*As of Sept 7, 2019, a week of tRUMP ordering his minions and sycophants to defend his illegal altering of an official weather map, and where his VP was asked to stay in his hotel, and he defunds NATO and Russian defence systems, and military monies were diverted to play for a wall, the US doesn't have a secretary of defense OR a director of national intelligence. There is nobody in charge of defending the country.
***The White House has found a way to bypass the Vacancies Act and tap the hardliner Mr. Trump wants to lead DHS. The route runs through the Office to Combat Weapons of Mass Destruction. The Trump administration has run into legal and personnel challenges while trying to find a replacement for Kevin K. McAleenan, the acting secretary of homeland security.
VETTING:
The New Yorker: tRUMP has not filled positions, is not following protocol, ethics or proper vetting.
Behind the chaos: Office that vets Trump appointees plagued by inexperience
The RNC vetting documents of tRUMP administration was leaked. tRUMP chose them in spite of the faults and backgrounds. He paid the price of their failures and needs to take the blame.
The tRUMP administration says they vetted much more closely before choosing staff, but the records show that that is not true. Look at unvetted KUSHNER, changing his application for clearance hundreds of times, and many more with domestic violence and shady backgrounds. (That includes tRUMP) https://www.axios.com/donald-trump-presidential-transition-vetting-rnc-686f1655-8731-43fe-964b-819e541eaee3.html
EG: See this staffer, Mina Chang, the deputy assistant secretary in the State Department's Bureau of Conflict and Stability, for an absolute YIKES on a person hired for a National security position!
THE WORST PICKS:
tRUMP campaign or administrations picks: 6 CONVICTED FELONS sentenced to PRISON 10 guilty verdicts, 37 Defendants or entities CHARGED, 199 CRIMINAL charges
George Nader, campaign Adviser Plead Guilty to Child Porn, Sex Trafficking. GUILTY FELONY PLEA - INDICTED Awaiting sentencing and is cooperating. He was known to visit the White House 13 times, at least. It seems his close association to elites and powerful political figures kept his precious 3 sentences low. 1 year for trafficking a 14 year old boy to the USA and raping him daily ? WTAF!! How is it that Q-Quislings think tRUMP is cleaning a swamp he has made his contacts and administration full of snakes and monstrous despots? tRUMP’s foreign policy in Middle East, UAE and negatively to Qatar was based on this asshole’s “advice” and as Broidy also was involved in this lobbying and he made millions from it, he is complicit!!
Paul Manafort was campaign manager, and his contacts with Ukrainians and Russians, and work for despots was well known. GUILTY FELONY PLEA - INDICTED and IMPRISONED for witness tampering, charged with fraud, charged with money laundering and tax fraud. Now plead guilty, has 22 million in property and assets forfeited and is cooperating . New charges brought for a third time as he was caught lying again. More charges adding for reneging on his plea deal.
Michael Flynn, tRUMP’s first National Security adviser: GUILTY FELONY PLEA - INDICTED and awaiting sentencing. Was supposed to be cooperating but has been anything but cooperative. Plead guilty for lying to the FBI. Mueller was pleased with extent of his cooperation and may escape jail time, especially as Barr is intervening on his behalf. Flynn calls Q-quisling’s his online army and may be their “director.”
George Papadopoulos was Campaign Adviser and Foreign policy adviser. GUILTY FELONY PLEA - INDICTED Cooperating. Sentenced and imprisoned.
Michael Cohen was Trump personal lawyer— GUILTY FELONY PLEA - INDICTED and IMPRISONED cooperating. Sentenced to 36 months and imprisoned.
Rick Gates, tRUMP’s deputy campaign director— FELONY PLEA Fully cooperating. Sentenced to 36 months probation 45 days in jail for conspiracy and making a false statement. Paul Manafort’s longtime business partner, testifies they committed bank and tax fraud together and speaks out about their Ukrainian ties. Admits he embezzled hundreds of thousands from Manafort.
Alex van der Zwaan: Lawyer to campaign advisor— GUILTY FELONY PLEA - INDICTED and IMPRISONED
Roger Stone: Adviser to tRUMP. CAUGHT in PERJURY, indicted and charged with 7 counts — GUILTY FELONY. Awaiting sentencing. May also be set free and pardoned because of AG Barr interference.
And now, the 2020 campaign as well.
Stephanie Alexander, the newest member of trump’s campaign leadership team looks downright sassy in her mugshot from when she was arrested for violating campaign finance law.
BAD RECENT PICKS
After having no quorum for years because tRUMP did not want anyone to act of election problems… tRUMP finally found a lying sycophant… Oct: tRUMP pick FEC Chair Trey Trainor spews conspiracy theories about vote by mail planned to set the stage for future complaints …
Nov 12 VIDEO: WOW…Sycophant pick for FEC Chair Trey Trainor lies and says that there was wide spread election fraud by Dems esp in PA, all thrown out of court… and is saying that the out of state military votes are illegitimate.
Major Trump & RNC donor Louis DeJoy is postmaster general of the United States, putting a top ally of Trump in charge of an agency he has long criticized. DeJoy is currently lead fundraiser for RNC convention. The GOP want to sell it off… PRIVATIZED for PROFIT ***The USPS is experiencing days-long backlogs of mail after the Trump donor running the agency put in place new policies that postal workers warn could undermine their ability to deliver ballots on time for the November election. They have stopped overtime and using sorting machines! Dejoy and his wife have between $30.1 MILLION and $75.3 MILLION in assets in USPS competitors and contractors. Here are some of his conflicts of interests – millions invested in the COMPETITORS USPC postal service!! interest.
Anthony Tata: Conspiracy theorist and arsehole Pentagon nominee still placed into a top Pentagon position after nomination failed. After being told by the senate that he could do whatever he wanted when he was not removed by impeachment, he is now mocking those who entitled him to be king…
Moncef Slaoui, Trump’s New COVID-19 Czar,Holds $10 Million In Stock Options In Vaccine Company Slaoui, a former pharmaceutical executive, was named “chief scientist” even though the vaccine tRUMP is touting is likely from Moderna. WTF
Johnny McEntee was fired as tRUMP’s assistant 2 years ago for a reputed tax-and-gambling problem. Unable to get a security clearance, he was escorted from the Whitehouse. Hes back. This time he will be in charge of presidential appointments or wiping his butt, depending on how gone the “president” is, being tRUMP needs old familiar loyal bad people in his midst.
That was a bad move, putting an iffy 29 year old in to hire and vet personnel. Besides hiring college hires shown below, he also hired Paul Dans, the new White House liaison and senior adviser to the director of OPM. The agenda seems to be like tRUMP’s - selfish grifting, not working on behalf of Americans. He is unqualified…
Further proof? He hired tRUMP’s new senior leader at the White House personnel office: A college senior!! This is Nixonian! Hiring young, loyal morons who will happily take their place under the bus or do jailtime… as most of tRUMP’s young staff did, with promises of pardons…
The director of the personnel office, John McEntee, has installed a young, loyal aide as he evaluates the loyalty of officials across the administration. James Bacon, 23, is “a senior at George Washington University pursuing a bachelor’s degree, comes from the Department of Transportation, where he briefly worked in the policy shop. Prior to that role, while still taking classes, he worked at the Department of Housing and Urban Development, where he was a White House liaison, according to two other officials. At HUD, he distinguished himself as Secretary Ben Carson’s confidential assistant, according to two other administration officials.”
Caleb Hull worked for TPUSA .. and is now a Pro-Trump Digital Strategist Made Racist Comments on a Secret Twitter Account The GOP operative shared many bigoted posts in a game, used the n word a LOT in tweets, twitter, etc. Even though he recently mocked a black Nascar driver who had a noose made for a door pull … he made this fake religious post to show what a jerk he is with this fake apology saying he was young and has “changed…” The many disgusting posts…
Another college hire, Anthony Labruna, “ is not slated to graduate from Iowa State University until early May. In the meantime, he’ll be deputy White House liaison at the Department of Commerce, according to an administration official.” Labruna, 22, was a paid staffer on the field team of Trump’s 2020 Iowa campaign.
John Troup Hemenway, another college student, was “hired on a 30-day detail to help the deputy director of the Presidential Personnel Office, Michael Burley, with paperwork for Defense Department political appointees, according to one of the people. Hemenway is expected to graduate from the University of Virginia in December.” It is fine though because he’s “really good at what he does…” according to other unqualified staff.
The fourth college senior is Jordan Hayley, ‘a Liberty “University” senior majoring in history and international relations who started in February as PPO’s external relations director. In that role, her job is to conduct outreach and build relationships with agencies, potential hires and outside organizations. She will receive her undergraduate degree in May upon finishing one last class, according to a senior administration official.’
Hope Hicks, the “presser of Mr baggy pants ” who left 2 years ago, is also back. She returns as his aide and abettor.
“This week the administration announced its pick for his successor was Robert Marbut, a former community college civics professor and San Antonio City Council member with a longtime side gig as a policy consultant on homelessness.” His plan is to open 24 hour shelters, so they can’t be seen, but also to move them from ‘Enablement to Engagement’ being he feels they are grifters and homeless by choice. Addiction and mental health are not on his radar… “In some cases, Marbut has pushed to criminalize giving food to homeless people. At his shelters, people are removed at high rates. “
Rich Higgins, who was hired to the NSC by Michael Flynn, brought a conspiracy riddled document under the auspices of the NSC to tRUMP. He was fired by McMasters for that stupidity, and now is being returned… as Chief of Staff to the Undersecretary of Defense for Policy. Three other Flynn and tRUMP loyalists were also hired…
VIDEO: National Security Adviser Robert O'Brien seems to be just fine with the Russians interfering in the elections and lies and says they have been tough and there is nothing less to sanction. . He says tRUMP’s calls are “private” conversations. WTAF America? When speaking with foreign heads of state, it is surely a national security issue! "I don't get into the conversations the president had with foreign heads of state."
John Ratcliffe, Trump's pick for intelligence chief, follows Pizza-gaters, JFK Jr. conspiracists who say JFK Jr is still alive, and a 9/11 Truther account with just one follower besides himself. Q-Anon are delighted… as seen in this thread on Twitter.
“Mandy Gunasekara carried a snowball on the Senate floor to Jim Inhofe so he could mock Climate Change and worked to pull the US out of the Paris accord at EPA. Now she's in line to become EPA's next chief of staff.”
More bad picks
Def Sec Mark Esper was Pompeo West Point classmate along with 3 others in the administration… was VP of government relations at Raytheon and a top corporate lobbyist. He and Pompeo are part of a religious “Family” that wants to bring Armageddon… Raytheon teamed up with Northrop to develop and produce engines for hypersonic weapons that are lightweight, can travel 4000 miles and carry conventional or NUCLEAR payload… and you can bet they are itching to use them and make more to sell to say… Saudi Arabia …
Frank Wuco, a former conservative radio host and naval intelligence officer who suggested dropping nuclear bombs on Afghanistan after the 9/11 attacks and is a birther /avid conspiracy theorist, now works on arms control issues at the State Department. Previously Wuco was working as a senior adviser at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), leading a team tasked with enforcing Mr Trump’s travel ban
(UPDATE: She resigned) Mina Chang could be a spy for some Asian country for all anyone knows. See this staffer for an absolute YIKES on the person hired for a State Dept. position!! “A senior Trump administration official has embellished her résumé with misleading claims about her professional background — even creating a fake Time magazine cover with her face on it — raising questions about her qualifications to hold a top position at the State Department. Mina Chang, the deputy assistant secretary in the State Department's Bureau of Conflict and Stability Operations, falsely claims to be a Harvard grad, and exaggerated the scope of her nonprofit's work.” Before she got the job, she was nominated for an even more senior position overseeing a billion dollar budget. That was changed once Congress asked for more info of her background, and all of he BIO lies are still on the State Dept website! WTAF?
VIDEO: Charlatan and Profit prophet, Paula White, speaks in tongues and has a shady past… also says where she walks God walks. ‘To say no to President Trump would be saying no to God.’ — Trump’s Trump's personal spiritual adviser and newest administration official, tells her congregation that if they give her money, (IIn the video she suggest thousands of dollars, 30k, 110k… or else they will be failures. God will reward them with a divine revelation outlining His plan for their lives. Paula White is now an official White House employee. Here is White declaring that opposition to Trump is opposition to God. FYU, Talibangelicals, for false christs and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect. Matthew 24:24
Seema Verma is the Trump appointee who has used red tape to help kick poor people off of Medicaid while overseeing 1M kids losing health insurance. She is among 40 consultants making hundreds of dollar per hour being paid by taxpayers to do the jobs that government workers could and should be doing. Who are these consultants? tRUMP loyalists, assuring that the swamp has lots of outside snakes and robbers.
Pam Bondi has been brought onto tRUMP impeachment advisory team… This was done at the same time as America was reminded that Bondi was given a 25k payout from tRUMP’s “charity” foundation which is why he had to plead guilty of DEFRAUDING his own foundation. For having received that “charitable gift,” Bondi dropped charges on tRUMP-U in Florida. She is currently lobbying for Qatar and will be winding down that role to join the White House team. When she joins, she will be under a “special government employee” status with less “stringent” code of ethics and work outside of the WH as well! W T F! Only the best of bad people… and what stringent code of ethics have these criminals been working under? Mob rules?
BAD JUDICIAL PICKS for Federal Judge
Senate GOPers voted to confirm Sarah Pitlyk to a lifetime federal court seat, despite her extreme views on fertility treatments and unanimous 'not qualified' ABA rating. Every Republican present but Collins voted for Pitlyk. Every Dem present opposed her. All they care about is filling seats!
Like kavanaugh, another tRUMP judicial appointee literally cried and sniveled when confronted with his unacceptable past foibles: “Colleagues found Lawrence VanDyke to be “arrogant, lazy, an ideologue, and lacking in knowledge of the day-to-day practice,” the chair of an ABA committee wrote in the scathing letter, the result of 60 interviews with lawyers, judges and others who worked with the Justice Department attorney.”
The Senate voted to make Steven Menashi a federal judge. He's never tried a case. He condemned women's rights and diversity. He refused to answer senators' questions. Every Dem present voted against, every Republican present but Collins voted to confirm.
Matthew Spencer Petersen: VIDEO: This is what tRUMP and federalists are appointing to life long positions on judges benches. When Senator John Kennedy, a Republican from Louisiana, asked him a series of basic law-school questions, it was revealed that Petersen had never argued a motion, tried a case, or taken a deposition by himself. Embarrassing details came out about other judicial nominees: Brett Talley, who had never tried a case in federal court, wandered cemeteries hunting for ghosts; Jeff Mateer had called transgender children part of “Satan’s plan.” All three nominations were withdrawn.
Justin Walker: Senate Republicans confirmed *another* lifetime federal judge who earned a rare and embarrassing "not qualified" rating by the American Bar Association. He is 37 so possibly 50 years of his incompetence on the Federal bench to look forward to…
MORE HAPLESS AND HAPHAZARD APPOINTMENTS … a reference guide for the future
tRUMP nominated George Mentz to the Commission on Presidential Scholars last week. "A Colorado Springs lawyer appointed by President Donald Trump to a federal education board is a prolific author of self-help Illuminati books whose education company has been accused of handing out certificates to undeserving applicants." Trump picked the author of more than 60 self-help Illuminati books for a federal education board that honors top high school seniors.
“The State Department’s Legal Adviser is expected to have legal knowledge and expertise on the entire range of international law issues, from the laws of armed conflict to private international law to human rights to international environmental law. Seeing prior Legal Advisers in action–regardless of which party appointed the Secretary of State–was like watching an international law encyclopedia come to life. It’s hard to imagine someone so inexperienced filling these shoes.”
This may be why lawlessness is the new law of the land. Deputy Assistant Secretary Marik String was promoted… after being placed in his previous position with less than 4 years experience from passing the bar. ‘String had been appointed Acting Legal Adviser to the State Department on May 24, “the very day that this emergency declaration was sent to the Hill, according to public records, this is when he got the promotion to be the top lawyer.” String worked for Cooper until May 23.’
The Senate Foreign Relations Committee [Human Rights] nominee, Marshall Billingslea, advocated torture, so-called “enhanced interrogation,” and other illegal practices as a senior official in the George W. Bush administration, positions he now seeks to obfuscate. If confirmed, “he would be tasked with upholding the same international laws that he disregarded when advocating for the use of torture under Bush.” The nomination remains in limbo as he remains Assistant Treasury secretary, still professing he was a passive participant in the torture program, in spite of evidence.
Trump's nominee to lead federal media agency funded a private company with donations from his non-profit (tRUMP also abused/defrauded his foundation and charities) Michael Pack, a conservative filmmaker with ties to Steve Bannon, has seen at least $1.6 million in donations from his nonprofit sent into the coffers of his independent production company, according to disclosures
tRUMP sycophant Neil Jacobs, NOAA ACTING Secretary issued a statement which was an absolute LIE, saying that tRUMP was briefed on Sept 01 that Alabama would be hit hard and 95% as per tRUMP. He got Jacobs to lie for him in an official statement. A politicized NOAA can lead to WEAPONIZED weather forecasts and affect FEMA aid for the states tRUMP does not like, or who did not vote for him. Unbelievable… and frightening.
Ken Cuccinell, is Acting USCIS Director of Immigration because the Trump administration invented a new job as he would never be confirmed by the Senate. VIDEO: Is trying to take “wretched” out of the Statue of Liberty welcome poem. He wants to add “stand on your own 2 feet” and says it was only for Europeans )Code for WHITE) and people of means, not the poor. Racist bigot.
– compared immigrants to rats
– named Steve King as one of his "very favorite congressmen"
– backed invoking "war powers" against the "invasion" of migrants to deny them due process
tRUMP’S new press secretary, Stephanie Grisham’s history might have scared off other administrations. She lost one job after being accused of cheating on expense reports & one over plagiarism charges. She was arrested for DUI while working on the 2016 campaign during her rocky rise to the White House. She has 2 DUI arrests from 2013 and during the Trump campaign in 2015.
The UN Ambassador, Kelly Knight Craft, was horrible as the Canadian ambassador and was hardly ever in Canada. She is the wife of a billionaire COAL baron, FFS! VIDEO: Her views of climate change, “I believe there are scientists on both sides that are accurate ..I think that both sides have their own results from their studies, and I appreciate and respect both sides of the science.”
Gordon Sondland, appointed as Ambassador to the EU and now caught up in Ukrainegate, is someone tRUMP hardly knew yet appointed to an important position? “I hardly know the gentleman”, says Trump of Gordon Sondland, who he appointed as Ambassador to the EU and who donated $1 million to his inauguration. https://twitter.com/emzorbit/status/1192846769987768321 From "A really good man, and great American" to "I hardly know" him.
Trump's pic for Treasury spokesperson, Monica Crowley, spread conspiracies that Obama was secretly a Muslim who was sympathetic to terrorists: 'Can he be both loyal to Islam and loyal to the United States?' She was previously appointed to work in NSC but she rescinded because of a controversy over her PHD being plagiarized. Crowley plagiarized over 50 sections of her 2012 book, "What the (Bleep) Just Happened?" Crowley was also accused of plagiarism in 1999 after a reader noticed that certain portions of her column published in the Wall Street Journal repeated almost word for word passages from Paul Johnson's 1988 piece, "Commentary." but she is mostly famous for being a “PHD” (Unless it rescinded for her plagiarism) who is so ignorant she tweeted that the Berlin Wall is proof walls work…
Acosta is out, so why not nominate corporate lawyer Eugene Scalia who has represented businesses in labor cases.
Patrick Pizzella worked with Jack Abramoff to organize congressional junket in a “public relations campaign to rebrand remote Pacific islands as a paragon of free-market principles. Between 1996 and 2000, emails and billing records reviewed by Mother Jones show that Pizzella and colleagues organized all-expenses-paid trips to the islands for more than 100 members of Congress, their staffers, and conservative thought leaders. When they got back, Pizzella helped them convince colleagues that the Northern Mariana Islands were, as his old boss Abramoff liked to put it, a “laboratory of liberty.” The clothes were stamped “Made in the USA” and were tariff free… after stripping the island of its Minimum wage guarantees.
Carla Provost, chief of BP on the horrible Facebook page. “These posts are completely inappropriate and contrary to the honor and integrity I see — and expect — from our agents day in and day out,” Provost said in a statement. “Any employees found to have violated our standards of conduct will be held accountable.” How quickly she for got she was a member of the group, and also responded 3 months AFTER becoming chief o as a member of the group. Members used the page to joke about migrant deaths and share sexually violent and threatening posts about several Democratic lawmakers, including, in particular, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, D-N.Y. Politico followed up by reporting that senior officials in the Border Patrol, as well as CBP public affairs officials, had known about the group for years and used it as an “intelligence” stream to monitor the sentiment of the workforce.
Breitbart cast-offs: The White House correspondent for Breitbart “News,” Michelle Moons will soon be taking a job with the Domestic Policy Council; another former Breitbart employee works in the Trump administration. Julia Hahn reportedly works as a special assistant to the president and director of surrogate and coalition communications and of course, Steve Bannon worked with President Donald Trump as his campaign manager and later his senior advisor. Bannon’s goals of dividing, disrupting and destroying government in America are some of Putin’s goals. Todd Thurman, a Heritage Foundation staffer who used to write for the Daily Signal and Breitbart, was appointed as the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s digital strategy Qualifications? NONE. That’s nothing. Here are 21 people that previously worked at FOX or were regular guests.
President Trump’s hand-picked IRS Commissioner, Charles Rettig, earns as much as $1 million in rental income from the Trump-branded properties he co-owns while facing demands from Congress to release Trump’s tax returns. The IRS has already missed more than one deadline set by the House Ways and Means Committee to turn over Trump’s tax returns.
Mark Morgan tRUMP’s new pick for ICE director “auditioned” on FOX: “I’ve been to detention facilities where I’ve walked up to these individuals that are so-called minors, 17 or under,” Morgan said. “I’ve looked at them and I’ve looked at their eyes, Tucker — and I’ve said that is a soon-to-be MS-13 gang member. It’s unequivocal.” In the five months that followed, Morgan became Trump’s most prolific media cheerleader on immigration. He racked up nearly 100 television and radio appearances following his debut on “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” running the gamut from CNN to conservative talk radio programs hosted by Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity.
William Happer, one of the president’s National Security Council (NSC) appointees, is spearheading a Presidential Committee on … Climate Security. Happer has compared the overwhelming scientific consensus that carbon dioxide causes global warming to Nazi “propaganda” and said, “What used to be science has turned into a cult.” The WH wants to assess whether climate change poses a national security threat even though Fed agencies have affirmed that conclusion many times since Trump took office. Happer believes carbon emissions linked to climate change are an asset.
Kelly Knight Craft has said she believes in "both sides" of the debate surrounding climate science and donor with deep coal ties for top U.N. position. Craft is wife of a Kentucky coal magnate,Joe Craft is the CEO of Alliance Resource Partners, the third-largest coal producer in the eastern United States. Collectively, the Crafts donated more than $1.5 million to the president and other Republicans in 2016, in addition to being repeat customers at the Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C.
The "squeaky clean" external audit of the inauguration seems to be non existent for a reason... being it was likely used for money laundering, bribes, tRUMP money lining. Doug Ammerman, the treasurer of the inauguration, was once named as an unindicted conspirator in a major criminal tax evasion case involving his former employer. tRUMP can surely pick them...
A week after his January 2017 inauguration, Trump signed an executive order that bars former lobbyists, lawyers and others from participating in any matter they lobbied or otherwise worked on for private clients within two years before going to work for the government. But records reviewed by the Associated Press show Trump’s top lawyer, White House counsel Don McGahn, has issued at least 24 ethics waivers to key administration officials at the White House and executive branch agencies.”
At least 187 Trump political appointees have been federal lobbyists, and despite President Trump’s campaign pledge to “drain the swamp,” many are now overseeing the industries they once lobbied on behalf of. What we found in Trump’s “drained swamp”: hundreds of ex-lobbyists and D.C. insiders
Labor Secretary Alex Acosta, who had oversight over U.S. policy on sex trafficking — let Jeffrey Epstein cut a sweetheart deal. “Despite allegedly molesting hundreds of young girls, Epstein served just 13 months in a county jail after pleading guilty to two felony prostitution charges.” “That meant some of Epstein’s young victims were smeared as prostitutes, even though anyone under 18 who is paid for sex is legally considered to be a trafficking victim.” (He was given work release for 12 hours, 6 days a week so DID NOT serve his time)
Session’s Chief of Staff, Matthew Whitaker: Instead of a vetted and Senate approved pick for AG Session replacement, tRUMP chooses a former US attorney who has recently been on the board of a patent company that was fraudulent and defrauded many veterans as well. Here are some of the veterans who were scammed and threatened by Whitaker and the “invention” company:
Lana Marks, handbag designer, is the latest Mar-a-Lago member to join the U.S. diplomatic corps as ambassador to South Africa. Her qualifications are “donor and supporter” like most of tRUMP’s appointments.
Mary Mayhew, Medicaid critic to run medicaid... what more needs to be said.
Brian Benczkowski is head of the Justice Department's leading the department's Criminal Division. In his role with the law firmKirkland & Ellis (Barr is also with them), Benczkowski had represented Alfa Bank and supervised an investigation into suspicious online communications between the bank and servers belonging to the Trump Organization. During Mueller's investigation he did not recuse himself from issues involving Russia. Also, as a GOP/Federalist operative, Brian A. Benczkowski was literally the man that received their stolen emails in 2002.
Eric Dreiband was confirmed to lead the Justice Department Civil Rights Division. His past actions show he is a bigot and has no concerns for minorities or civil rights, so will likely try to make white people the victims to fight for, given tRUMP hires the antithesis of what is required for a job.
Eric Blankenstein: A senior Trump appointee responsible for enforcing laws against financial discrimination once questioned in blog posts written under a pen name if using the n-word was inherently racist and claimed that the great majority of hate crimes were hoaxes. He is responsible for supervising lenders and enforcing an array of consumer protection laws, including the four-decade-old Equal Credit Opportunity Act, landmark civil rights legislation aimed at protecting blacks and other minorities from discriminatory practices and promoting “fair lending.”
Dr. Robert Redfield, head US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is a dangerous Christian extremist with a history of demonizing gays and single parents. His army policy: AIDS Is ‘God’s Judgment’ Against Gays. He left many soldiers jobless, and dying. He ignited controversy because of his dubious qualifications for the job and the over-the-top salary offer that came with it. Initially slated to earn $375,000 a year, Redfield faced questions from Democrats, led by Sen. Patty Murray of Washington, and last week agreed to work for $209,700 instead.
Linda McMahon: is an American professional wrestling executive and government official serving as the Administrator of the Small Business Administration in the Trump Administration.
Katrina Pierson: T-Party activist, communications consultant and spokesperson for the Donald Trump 2016 presidential campaign, was regular shill on CNN during the campaign. Ever wonder where unshakeable loyalty comes from? She has a record for shop lifting. She also can’t spell and is a tRUMP spokes[erson.
Sebastian Gorka He "is not considered a terrorism expert” by the academic or policy community and is only in Gorka’s mind… He is an Alt-Reich hanger-on with a radio show, that quit as deputy assistant to the president (insists he was not fired) saying the agenda was too soft for him…
Wilbur Ross: If even half of the accusations are legitimate, the current United States secretary of commerce could rank among the biggest grifters in American history. Wilbur Ross has a lot of questions to answer about his Russian connections.
Alex Azar: tRUMP has said that Alex Azar, his pick for Health and Human Services secretary, will "be a star for better healthcare and lower drug prices." tRUMP literally appointed the man who tripled the price of insulin at Lilly.
Roger Severino: “Head of the Office of Civil Rights at the Department of Health and Human Services and a longtime conservative activist, announced the creation of a new division to investigate claims of “religious discrimination” against doctors, pharmacists, and hospitals who deny services to people like me. “
Mick Mulvaney: Office of Management and Budget AND the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. At a speech before the American Bankers Association on Tuesday, Mr. Mulvaney said that as a congressman he would only meet with lobbyists who gave money to his campaign. He also encouraged bankers — many of whom have given generously to him — to let their needs be known to lawmakers. Mulvaney discloses ‘hierarchy’ for meeting lobbyists, saying some would be seen only if they paid. He was chosen to infiltrate, de-fund and defang the consumer protection agency that Elizabeth Warren founded to protect Americans from banks and other lenders from financial fraud and ruin. Also took on tRUMP Chief of Staff and bootlicker, which means NONE of those jobs are being done properly…
Scott Pruitt: EPA Environmental Protection Agency – Scott Pruitt, climate denier who has worked closely with the fossil fuel industry his entire career. He has worked inside the coal industry. Pruitt, who -runs- ran the Environmental Protection Agency, has been taking care of himself. He got a sweetheart deal for a $50-a-night room from the wife of a lobbyist whose company was seeking goodies from the E.P.A. He has liberally spent government funds on first-class flights and a security detail large enough for a minor potentate. He also spent $43,000 on a soundproof phone booth for his office that might remind some of the “cone of silence” from “Get Smart.”
Mr. Pruitt came to own a stately house overlooking the State Capitol, a million-dollar lakeside manse in Tulsa and a stake in a minor-league baseball team, with the help of a couple of old associates, one a banker and the other a lawyer … both of whom are now on the public payroll, working with Mr. Pruitt at the E.P.A. tRUMP’s “best” people are his worst.
Lynn DeKleva, who worked for decades at chemical giant DuPont, was appointed to a job as an environmental engineer in the Environmental Protection Agency’s chemical safety and pollution prevention office in October. Typically, environmental engineering positions are not political appointments. The EPA said in a statement that DeKleva “brings considerable product stewardship experience and knowledge with her to assist” the agency.
Ben Carson Ben Carson and tRUMP's former event planner are at HUD, funneling loans and who knows what perks to Hannity and his ilk and saying that poor people need to pay 20% higher rent... to Hannity and the Kushners and the gazilli9ons of real estate "developers" who are money laundering, stealing and love tRUMP because he literally is "one of them." Ben Carson used to promote a brand of nutritional supplements that claimed it could cure autism and cancer.
HUD is screwing the same poor people it was designed to help by tripling rent. Ben Carson has written op-eds about how our fair housing act is “failed socialism” and a “mandated social-engineering scheme”. Now, millions of people depend on him to have a roof over their heads!
Rep. James Bridenstine: (R-Okla.) is a former Navy pilot with virtually no management experience in any large organization. But the Oklahoma Republican has been tapped by President Donald Trump to take over the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), a federal agency with a budget of $18.5 billion, 18,000 federal workers, and over 60,000 contract employees. His tRUMPian past includes not believing in climate change, not respecting LGBQ rights , and cheating a charity… he led a small non-profit with large financial losses, some caused by the non-profit’s resources used to benefit a for-profit company Bridenstine co-owned & had invested in
Ronnie Jackson Choosing the man who could be ordered to lie about tRUMP’s height, weight and give him a mental acuity test that comprised of distinguishing basic, well- known animals, tRUMP chose loyalty over experience or ability, to decide the fate veterans was unconscionable. The new head of the Department of Veterans Affairs, Ronny L. Jackson is: “A career naval officer who was an emergency trauma doctor in Iraq before spending the past 12 years as a White House physician. But his résumé lacks the type of management experience usually expected from the leader of an agency that employs 360,000 people, has a $186 billion annual budget and is dedicated to serving the complex needs of the country’s veterans.” tRUMP’s WH Doctor has a past that comes back to haunt him as previous workmates write letters in reference to his drinking and dishing out drugs. Jackson was not allowed a hearing from his nomination.
Fox News personality Pete Hegseth was also a leading candidate to replace Veterans Affairs Secretary David Shulkin. No experience. BUT he was on one of tRUMP’s favourite shows… FOX and Friends… Military veterans deserve to have someone knowledgeable and compassionate as they return with injuries to mind and body.
Of 59 EPA hires tracked by the AP, about a third worked as registered lobbyists or lawyers for chemical manufacturers, fossil fuel producers and other corporate clients.
Chad McIntosh: tRUMP’s EPA Nominee Let Cancer-Causing Chemical Pollute Groundwater, During Chad McIntosh's time as a Ford environmental exec, seeping chemicals contaminated groundwater near a company plant.
Zinke has attracted attention mostly for his zealous embrace of Trump’s energy agenda. He has opened up America’s coasts to offshore oil and gas drilling; overturned a moratorium on new leases for coal mines on public land; and recommended shrinking national monuments in Utah by two million acres, the largest reduction of protected lands in American history. His advisory board dominated by oil and gas executives. Zinke has no professional experience in geology, but he routinely describes himself as a “geologist,” because he majored in geology in college.
Under Zinke, a former Montana congressman who is an avid hunter, the Fish and Wildlife Service has quietly moved to reverse Obama-era restrictions on bringing trophies from African lions and elephants into the United States.
Joe Balash, a top Trump Interior Dept. official who oversaw oil and gas drilling on federal lands — and pushed to expand drilling in Alaska — before resigning last week is now joining a foreign oil company that’s expanding operations on Alaska's North Slope.
Deputy Secretary David Bernhardt (Now that Corrupt Zinke is gone, corrupt fossil fuel lobbyist Brenhardt is now confirmed to replace Zinke as Secretary. UGH!) As long as they are loyal, tRUMP will let anyone work for him to help destroy America. Case in point: "A card with clients of Interior Deputy Secretary David Bernhardt are seen listed on this small card, which he carries with him as he performs his job. Bernhardt, who worked as a lobbyist for a decade before rejoining the department, is prohibited from participating in matters that specifically affect 22 of his former clients until Aug. 3, 2019." ‘The man behind the curtain’: Interior’s No. 2 helps drive Trump’s agenda
16 board members appointed by Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke: tRUMP’s “wildlife protection” board is stuffed with trophy hunters, not protectionists. They all PRETEND to care about animals but would rather assure they are around to hunt, kill, and stick on the wall, not preserve a species for the sake of preservation. DISGUSTING!
Susan Combs, a former Texas state official who compared proposed endangered species listings to “incoming Scud missiles” and continued to fight the Endangered Species Act after she left government, now has a role in overseeing federal wildlife policy.
Combs was selected by Interior Department Secretary Ryan Zinke as acting secretary for fish, wildlife and parks. Zinke made the move after his bid to make her an assistant secretary for policy, management and budget stalled in the Senate. A fierce opponent of the Endangered Species Act is picked to oversee Interior’s wildlife policy
Andrew Wheeler tRUMP Pick For EPA’s No. 2 Accused Of Abusing Power To ‘Bully' And 'Intimidate’ Opponents. As a Senate aide in 2005, Andrew Wheeler went after state air pollution regulators for opposing his boss's bill.
Mari Stull Food blogger… and lobbyist. The Office of Special Counsel, an independent watchdog, is investigating whether Trump’s political appointees—including “Mari Stull, senior advisor in the international organization bureau—are carrying out political reprisals against career officials, according to two State Department officials familiar with the matter. The inspector general is also investigating allegations that Stull hurled homophobic slurs at a State Department staffer
Adviser Lawrence Kudlow Has a history degree BA from Rochester, and NO degree in Economics. Previous addictions to cocaine and alcohol. And as this report indicates, Kudlow has a long record of abysmal failures, including shouting there will be no recession right up to the eve of the great recession. tRUMP’s New Economic Adviser Lawrence Kudlow Has Been Wrong About Everything for Decades
Michael Kratsios: Someone with no background in science, but is a “friend” of Thiel has been given a position in the Science office… “Michael Kratsios, a former chief of staff to Trump ally Peter Thiel, is now serving as the de facto head of the Office of Science and Technology Policy because President Donald Trump still hasn’t nominated anyone to serve as his official science adviser. His degree is POLITICAL science!
Rudy Giuliani Hmmm I had no idea tRUMP wanted Giuliani as his “cyber security advisor.” How interesting, being “Giuliani Security & Safety,” Giuliani’s business alongside his law firm with his son, is supposedly a "full service security consulting firm.” Yet his site runs out of date security programs, is easily hacked and has outdated certificates… No worries on missing that appointment. Rudy is presently shilling for tRUMP as his chaos lawyer on any TV station that will have him. He is enjoying it as he gets to stay close and hear first hand about the special investigation that he may also find himself wrapped up in.
Taylor Weyeneth Meet the 24-year-old Trump campaign worker appointed to help lead the government’s drug policy office. When he was in high school, Weyeneth was “Director of Production” for Nature’s Chemistry, a family firm in Skaneateles, N.Y., that specialized in processing chia seeds and other health products. One résumé said he served in that job from 2008 to 2013, and two others indicate he stopped working there in September 2011.
In the summer and fall of 2011, the firm was secretly processing illegal steroids from China as part of a conspiracy involving people from Virginia, California and elsewhere in the United States and one person in China, federal court records show. Weyeneth’s stepfather, Matthew Greacen, pleaded guilty to a felony conspiracy charge last year and received two years probation and a fine.
WTF? The kids only experience in the workforce was a fake position, being “Director of Production” for Nature’s Chemistry implies he knew what they were producing! WTF WTF…
And more… He is a frat boy, lazy-do-nothing grad school dropout that is totally unfit for a position that requires experience and knowledge… All three of his resumes contain bald faced lies about his schooling. Trump’s 24-year-old drug policy appointee was let go at law firm after he ‘just didn’t show.’
Rick Perry: Secretary of Energy –flunked chemistry. Rick Perry once promised to abolish the DOE- now he leads it. He didn’t even know what the agency does. Now he is the head of it.
Sonny Perdue: Agriculture Secretary –heads a global agribusiness empire. His loyalty is to big business. His first move as Agriculture Secretary was to remove health standards from public school meals!! This is the person in charge of our nation’s agriculture! On Snap
Betsy Devos: Department of Education –has devoted her life to replacing our public school system with private charter schools. Her only qualification for the job is that she's a billionaire who hates public schools, called public schools a “dead end” and bankrolled a private school voucher measure in Michigan. Legislators then did her bidding slashing public school budgets and the result was nearly half of Michigan's charter schools rank in the bottom of U.S.
Sam Clovis: Former senior White House adviser to the USDA was nominated for Agriculture Research in Department of Agriculture. He has no research or science degrees… He has a right-wing talk show, based on denying climate change. He stoked birther conspiracy, called Eric Holder a 'racist black' and engages in fringe theories, especially any attached to Obama…
Tom Price: Department of Health –vision for health reform includes replacing federal government’s role with that of a free-market framework. He is going to allow states to dispense Medicaid spending. Secretary Tom Price belonged to a group that holds strong anti-vaccine views and has claimed that abortions cause breast cancer. Tom Price's travel wasted $341,000 before he was ousted.
tRUMP appointed high grade government positions at the Agriculture Department headquarters, to a long-haul truck driver, a country club cabana attendant and the owner of a scented-candle company. Undoubtedly, in today’s economy, there was a long list of qualified candidates for those positions. Instead, he handed them to people clearly unqualified. You can’t have much respect for a company that you are hiring for, to hire such inept candidates.
Nick Brusky: the truck driver, for example. Trump gave him a position ranking at G-12 on the government’s pay scale, the highest one available. Nick now earns more than $79,000. The government has some requirements in it’s pay scale. All G-12 positions require a master’s degree. Politico looked at Nick’s resume, and it is not clear that he has a master’s. According to his resume, he never actually graduated college.
Is this just a desperate attempt to secure loyalty among his followers? Nick Brusky for example, worked on Trump’s campaign in Ohio. You think Nick liked tRUMP then? Think of how much he adores him now? It has to be more than that though. If you are President of the United States, you aren’t going to destroy massive government agencies just to thank your supporters. Isn’t that counterproductive?
What about Christopher O’Hagan? He earned the lucrative position of confidential assistant at the Agricultural Marketing Service, which helps producers of food, fiber and specialty crop growers market their goods. Consequently, O’Hagan graduated in 2016 from the University of Scranton with a major in history and a minor in economics. The only employment listed on his resume before handing out Trump leaflets on the street corner, was as a cabana attendant at the Westchester Country Club in Rye, New York. Tim Page owned a landscaping service.
Jon Adler put stock in a discredited regimen: Adler advocated for the Scientology-based program as far back as 2010, when he asked for government reimbursement for a federal officer who wanted to enroll in the Utah Meth Cop Detox Program, one of the local programs under the Heroes Health Fund's umbrella. Speaking to the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform in 2010 in his role as FLEOA president, Adler noted several instances in which law enforcement officials didn't receive the funds necessary to treat their various job-related injuries. He focused specifically on Special Agent Tim Chard, and his treatment in the Utah Meth Cop Detox Program—a method that was based off the Ground Zero Rescue Workers Detoxification Project, which comes directly from Hubbard's pseudoscientific "detoxification" program.
According to Adler's statement, Chard busted and dismantled more than 100 meth labs in Utah over the course of seven years. About a year after, though, Chard "started to experience a variety of symptoms that have been linked to others who have suffered from severe meth lab exposure."
Scientology connection: Adler's proposed role overseeing national law enforcement initiatives, he will be in a position to perpetuate a dubious detoxification program that some have suggested doubles as a Scientology recruiting tool.
Trump's director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Dr. Brenda Fitzgerald, used to hawk bogus anti-aging medicine. She RESIGNED in the middle of a flu epidemic!
OmarosaMagineault tRUMP hired thisunqualified employee for a high-ranking White House position. Despite her poor performance, abusive behavior toward co-workers, and frequent failure to attend work, he overruled the advice of his chief of staff and retained her. His reason for doing so, despite having little contact with this toxic employee, is that she flattered him. She is not the first or last to suddenly be on tRUMP’s bad side and now called a bad employee… because they crossed him.
Ileana Garcia, a co-founder of the campaign’s Latinas for Trump, was appointed as deputy press secretary in the Department of Homeland Security. She has now a grudge, as do many latinos, as tRUMP coopted the name for the RNC and founders are no longer allowed to use the name.ETTD!
Antonin Scalia, the namesake grandson of the late Supreme Court justice, was appointed as a temporary assistant in the State Department. Scalia graduated from college last year. Scalia and the State Department did not respond to ProPublica’s requests for comments.
Staffers:
We know the tRUMP administration hires the antithesis of the very best for his team - no experience, morals or ethics required. This is a deliberate, being the people recruiting and vetting candidates are also inexperienced and have maturity and ethics issues. Your taxes have funded drinking games and happy hours to "de-stress" from not having worked the rest of the day, nepotism abounds and having a criminal background that could not get you a security clearance seems to be a prerequisite! EG: "A college dropout with arrests for drunken driving and bad checks and a Marine Corps reservist with arrests for assault, disorderly conduct, fleeing an officer and underage drinking." "Since the inauguration, most of the staffers in the PPO have been in their 20s, some with little professional experience apart from their work on Trump’s campaign..." "Since Bullock joined the Trump transition, four of her family members received political appointments to federal agencies. Her son became deputy assistant administrator at the United States Agency for International Development. His wife is a White House liaison at the Office of Personnel Management."
2016 brought America no scientist as the head of OST Science and Tech, no educator as Secretary of Education, no environmentalist heading the EPA, a gas and oil shill at Interior, no Nuclear Physicist in DoE, you have a no brain dud Ricky Perry, no economist at OMB to manage a budget, a "brain" surgeon with a disdain for poor people he is supposed to help at HUD, a woman who just bought tobacco stocks at CDC, and a lying racist serial sexual predator as "president."

There are MANY more grifters in the administration… but some are standouts that you need to know about…
Dr. of Philosphy , Paul Alexander, assistant Prof of Health research methods at a Canadian University was hired by Michael Caputo, Roger Stone accomplice and conspiracy theorist, and is trying to muzzle Dr. Fauci. He wrote a PHD thesis in philosophy criticizing the WHO… so that may be why… HIRED!
Alexander also criticized the studies on Hydroxychloroquine. BOOM! https://experts.mcmaster.ca/display/publication1813096
Email exchanges show support to tRUMP and deny science to get kids back in school: ‘The emails add to evidence that the White House, and Trump appointees within HHS, are pushing health agencies to promote a political message instead of a scientific one.’ One of note: " I continue to have an issue with kids getting tested and repeatedly and even university students in a widespread manner…and I disagree with Dr. Fauci on this Vehemently,” Alexander Aug. 27 emails, saying the opposite of Fauci’s arguments.
