💯 Every nominee is tasked with destroying, not running, whatever agency is associated with him/her.

suepat.bsky.social•83 days ago

I think you mean it is what PooTin wants. I honestly believe PooTin has the peepee tapes and DonOld will do whatever PooTin wants in order to keep those hidden. Same with Greenland. PooTin wants it for the oil. Panama? PooTin wants sanctions removed.

jewjewbee.bsky.social•83 days ago

If Putin has said tapes, it would not move the needle one jot. Trump would likely run them on a streaming loop for a fee.

suepat.bsky.social•83 days ago

LOL no I think that is one thing that might get through even HIS pee brain. He is vain. I could see him running Melania on a streaming loop for money though...

alberta77.bsky.social•83 days ago

Question: anyone believe a foreign influence encourages Trump to nominate who he does in an attempt to further erode the fibre of the US thru a shallow, easily influenced man? Is it not going to become more decayed thru his health, defence,education,security & justice nominees? I say yes!

tsunami64.bsky.social•83 days ago

We are being destroyed by our own leaders so that the broligarchs can carve up the spoils similar to what happened after the fall of the Soviet Union.

jojenna.bsky.social•83 days ago

Trump probably picked Hegseth because he is one of Trump's puppets. Hegseth will do whatever Trump says even ordering military troops to invade American cities and shoot American citizens.

mary1kathy.bsky.social•83 days ago

You can tell from his replies today they’ve also talked about cruelty to immigrants quite a bit as well.

eloolym.bsky.social•83 days ago

And Hegseth has this vicious, bloodlust that Trump wants against Americans who criticize him.

jojenna.bsky.social•83 days ago

Exactly Em.

mary1kathy.bsky.social•83 days ago

Yes, “lethality”. I must have heard Hegseth use that term a dozen times or more today.

jojenna.bsky.social•83 days ago

The definition for lethality is the capacity to cause death or great harm.

Why would anyone use lethality so often? Unless they are serial killers or mass murders.

smartdirt.bsky.social•83 days ago

I guess his mom is part of the smear campaign 🤣 💩

sunflowerpin.bsky.social•83 days ago

That’s how dictatorships start. Trump wants it all including the money! And Republicans will help him get there.

mherod58.bsky.social•83 days ago

It's hard for Hegseth to face the realities of his life thus far. He's a boozer, a brawler & a womanizer in addition to a whole lotta other conduct we don't know about, making him unacceptable for this position in any administration. He's just a Trump lackey in uniform that used to be on FOX.

momsrule.bsky.social•83 days ago

Jail rapistTrump with rapistPete!

rae14.bsky.social•83 days ago

Trump is getting rid of our Democracy!! We should be horribly alarmed!!

highbon.bsky.social•83 days ago

Well if the destruction of American institutions happens, your American flag will have no meaning anymore, that's a very bad shame.

kyotiwiles.bsky.social•83 days ago

I have thought that since his first term. I have wondered if it is, in part, because we elected Obama twice. His bigotry short circuited his brain

beeaditude.bsky.social•83 days ago

Spot on 🎯

tsonic45.bsky.social•83 days ago

He may well be a change agent. Or he might find out just what a bunch of power hunger backstabbers work for him.

mary1kathy.bsky.social•83 days ago

Trump will eventually chew him up and spit him out. He does it to everyone. However, he will use him as his useful idiot first. Hegseth is just narcissistic enough to believe he’s the next Patton!

roslynn.bsky.social•83 days ago

How will the real military folks react to this?

jodikonobi.bsky.social•83 days ago

This = draft. Good luck getting people to want to join our military or should I say MILTARDs.

jjlynch81.bsky.social•83 days ago

The nominees he has chosen will diminish/destroy those agencies, thus allowing Trump/Elon to privatize them ($$$$) while depriving citizens of needed services...keep 'em, dumb, poor & begging...easier to manipulate a population that way...Autocracy works best with a desperate citizenry...

mary1kathy.bsky.social•83 days ago

You’ve hit the nail on the head!!

reallydebs.bsky.social•83 days ago

💯🎯 every one of them

luddysmom.bsky.social•83 days ago

So what gets me is that dumbfuck wants Greenland and willing to start a war over it, then he nominates this dumbfuck that will lose the war before it even gets started. And the idiots that elected him are just as clueless.

lilrooster59.bsky.social•83 days ago

That's exactly what Trump and Maga want. A population in chaos is easier to control. Chaos and fear, potent weapons used by many fascist authoritarian regimes.

oraclebungee.bsky.social•83 days ago

jeancarl10.bsky.social•83 days ago

And he will be confirmed unfortunately.

olmedacamilo1.bsky.social•83 days ago

He will be like a New US Military Private Trainee from National Gurad that has being putting in charge of a US Military Brigade in a War!

bonitalynne.bsky.social•83 days ago

Exactly. I wish more Dems were as articulate and to the point

tuesdayrio.bsky.social•83 days ago

There is NO logical explanation! 💔

peace1carla.bsky.social•83 days ago

transitfossil.bsky.social•83 days ago

as instructed by putin.

all part of the autocratic plan.

caligreg.bsky.social•83 days ago

A DEI Cabinet

Did Trump design a DEI spree,
For unqualified extremists to be?
Where whiteness stood as the sole degree,
And merit lost to loyalty?

justksmith.bsky.social•83 days ago

No question about his fitness; he's remarkably unfit.

mcscrimp.bsky.social•83 days ago

Follow the money. DOJ has a big BIG budget. Trump wants that money.

samiamnurnot.bsky.social•83 days ago

...except that it is also what Putin wants. 🤷🏻

tepsmom.bsky.social•83 days ago

The whole team he is bringing in will destroy all the infrastructure of our democracy. They will privatize everything; making it less affordable and available to middle class folks, they will milk the government of tax dollars and leave us a shell of what we once were. That is the plan.

tomstpatrick.bsky.social•83 days ago

👍. That is the plan.

crkolarz.bsky.social•82 days ago

Brought you by Putin

belgaeachren.bsky.social•83 days ago

When trump succeeds in destroying the country, where do these billionaire pals of his think they will get their money?

nata-bee.bsky.social•83 days ago

Typical Authoritarian move. Destroy the Military, Dept of Education and social programs, jail political opponents and university professors. Make it so that people are too poor, too sick, and too weak and stupid to resist.

bawalker.bsky.social•83 days ago

lifeisok4me.bsky.social•83 days ago

ourflagtoo.bsky.social•83 days ago

Bannon has been working towards this for years. All according to plan.

mjm314.bsky.social•83 days ago

Degrading our military is what PUTIN wants.

grumpyfinfan.bsky.social•83 days ago

And here we go again...if these scum don't want all the skeletons in their closets exposed then make sure you don't have skeletons in your closet. Absolutely fucking incredible.

jefflee65.bsky.social•83 days ago

Putin is waiting for his US bombs to drop on Ukrainian schools and hospitals.

shadowprofile.bsky.social•83 days ago

Putin's little Minon destroying America from within. While the GOP cheers him on.

Then we have the Democrats setting there and thinking.

"This Two Will Pass."

Sadly, It won't and the man already told fellow Republicans they wouldn't have to ever vote again.

Simply Pathetic!

finallynoelle.dems.social•83 days ago

These are Putin’s nominees. Trump is nothing but a puppet. Over 70 million Americans sold their country by voting for him.

docdp.bsky.social•83 days ago

So many of these miscreants following Donny’s example. Blue suit,white shirt, red tie. Association with the flag. Boring.
