I don't think it ever dawned on me that the president or president elect could just appoint anyone at all to positions regardless of their ability to do the actual job. I am horrified.
Exactly. The exact reason this election was so important. Too many people were pissed at the current administration, were more upset about the price of groceries, or willfully ignorant of how tariffs work to vote for "the tough guy" who promised to "fix" everything. Just like last time.🙄
Donald Trump Jr. told Fox News that he’s helping staff his father’s cabinet—which he aims to fill with people who “don’t think that they know better” than the president-elect.
He has recruited a very impressive staff of 17 year old TikTok influencers to tackle a bevy of important cases: is it a mandate to invite your 42 year old boss to a party, does a Venmo payment constitute a contract, is a Gucci knockoff purse equal to an NDA? God, I am hanging on these answers.
It is only designed to make his voters relieved when he nominates an equally terrible person. The new one will have at least a year or two courtroom experience
Such a great message to young girls and women yet again. Men can do literally anything they want to you with fa consequence. Really helps the whole Your Body My Choice, as if girls have a choice we’ll just r*** her messaging 😡😥 love the nickname though
Checking out the many posts and comments on gaetz - I don’t think he’s a serious nominee, but think of how greasy this is. Trump likes McForehead and wants to do him a solid so he nominates him for a position he’ll never get confirmed for.
Gaetz resigns and effectively stops the house committee report from coming out and waltzes right back to congress in January. Gabberd is for Putin and trump likes hedgehog because of his hair and big dick energy
He’s just trying to get out of the ethics investigation. Every position is a get out of jail card. Checks and balances don’t work against money. It’s whether or not we can turn it around after they legally rape us, deport us, silence us, and take away our healthcare & our social security.Revolution
All the gods of what’s good and true need to jump in and do something. Biden could use that presidential immunity in some way and be a REAL patriot! Surely there are some hold-over Rs (not magats) that will finally follow Liz! Please…!
The little freak needs some instant karma, considering him for AG is a sick joke. mango mussolini is collecting the misfit mafia to plunder our country and sell us out to putin.
how can this desecation of our system be stopped?
Seriously, It might get bad enough that a gorilla war like situation is needed! Are we going to wait til they run the entire government into the ground?
The Gaetz of hell have opened.
The Reich have taken power.
The Shitlers have rewoken &
Now burns the witching hour.
They'll burn all the women's
opinions & rights.
Along with the books & our hope.
They'll kill & deport while MAGA's eat shite
& worship a rapist cunt Pope.
Yes, but to lead off with these people will not impress a lot of Republicans either. Trump shows his wounds through is words and deeds. We just need to stick our fingers in them and press, whenever possible.
It no longer matters if it's wrong, or inappropriate, or even illegal. It IS. I have a feeling we're going to see way worse than a sex trafficker as Attorney General. 🫤
The 🍊 one is just trolling everyone, specially the GOP that abandoned him. That’s why he is picking from the swamp.
-Outrageous Revenge behavior it will come back to haunt him.
When you view Republican talking points and actions through the lens of “Every accusation is an admission of guilt”, everything falls into place and becomes very clear.
Hope you will continue the good fight.
News just said Trump picked him because people don’t trust the Judicial Department. There he goes, throwing 💩 out again and Maga people believe him. They don’t see who the real criminal is that’s planting the seeds of doubt in their mind.
I want to fire the one that is writing this novel so we can get back to being loving people. I am so disappointed in all the hate that is being spread. Why is donnie free and others with minor offenses are serving long sentences.
Well if only justice didn't move at a broken snails pace when you are one of the elite, yet lightning fast for the mom that stole some baby formula to feed her kid.
mr trump evidences his utter disregard for our government, our people, by naming dangerous fools to serious positions at the top of the food chain. such disdain for good people by a bad clown...
Anyone else feel like the election was an elevator and we got off on the wrong floor. I’m waiting to stop being in the worlds worst anxiety loop second to having cancer
Were it not for the fact that I've not trusted our legal system since Bundy & his gang were acquitted for occupying the Malheur Wildlife Refuge (& my distrust has only gotten worse since then), I'd believe Gaetz might go the way of AG John Mitchell. But IF confirmed, he won't last long.
I think they’re placeholders for recess appointments. He knows they won’t get confirmed and they’re bad enough to get people worried but not the ones he really wants. Those are so much worse.
They may not be willing to go after Trump, but they have grounds to go after Musk. There has to be something to him having contact with Putin while holding a government contract to help, our allies, the people Putin was attacking.
The next nominees will likely look competent but they will be far more dangerous, as they will be ideologues and ready willing and able to carry out Trump’s most dictatorial fantasies
He’s throwing so much shit at the wall, you can only imagine the conversation going, “We can’t block them all, right?” then ranking them in order of less catastrophic.
Remember Mike Flynn the first time around? Was not going to get confirmed so they changed his position into one that didn't require confirmation. Think the Star Chamber (Trump; and his new special assistants) will do that?
But what’s the point? Will it be like a Mike Johnson thing? - No one’s ever heard of the second appointment but he’s technically even worse because he’s loyal AND smart/evil?
Paxton is pure evil, so if this is the ruse then i suspect he’s at the top of a list of evil pieces of shit. But also since trump’s depth of awareness extends no deeper than clownish tv hosts I was thinking Jeanine Pirro.
I think Dan Goldman is right - with the ethics report supposed to come out on Friday, his nomination and leaving Congress makes it all go away. Unless someone on the ethics committee leaks it.
I think he is just saying I can do whatever I freaking want and there isn't a damn thing you can do about it. He probably won't even keep some of these picks, it's just a in your face move!
Gaetz resigned to avoid the possibility of the House investigation report on him being released.
How beautiful it would be if his confirmation approval goes bust. 😆🤞🤞🤞
Jack, we’re hearing that this may be a performative way to let him resign and skate from the ethics charges, and not serious. Also that the other goofballs wouldn’t be confirmed. But hasn’t he learned to just call them “acting”? Why bother with the recess appointments thing?
Gaetz must be REALLY scared of that report in Gaetz seckshual misconduct if he worked a deal with Trump to join the admin so he could resign before it is released. Someone needs to leak it so Senate has a reason to reject confirmation

Smart move by rapey sadly 😒
Gaetz doesn’t want to work any more than trump does…lazy entitled pasty fat guys.
Too busy trying to get answers to important questions like “Why don’t hot chicks like me????”
You can pick the starting point.
Do whatever you want.

I mean, I know it is, but I just can't anymore with these appointments.
Wtf.
Where is Hunter S. Thompson when you need him?
You'll do.

trusting that i misunderstood!
Thanks for the laugh!
Allow them to implode when left to their own devices.
Sounds very maga-ish.
If only.
Will be wild.

Even sweeter if he doesn’t.

I'm flagged on twitter for pushing back on these thugs.
It's a cesspool.
Thank goodness for BlueSky and posts like yours.
❤️🩹⚖️💙
In the prison jumpsuit?!?!

If'n you're bored, this would be a legendary "get"
