Rubio's state dept appointee is a white supremacist and a misogynist. I remember not too long ago when a Republican who said this would be disqualified from high profile federal jobs forever.

Have a friend whose mom is convinced that kids are being operated on AT SCHOOL because trump offhandly said so in an interview she saw. She, obviously, can point to no instances of this ever occurring but that doesn't matter.

It would be really bad if there were Nazis in the federal government, and a total indictment of Trump and the Republican Party, therefore there aren't any Nazis in the federal government.

I interacted with him briefly on Twitter and his instantaneous and explosive hatred of me due to my gender and race was unlike anything that I had ever experienced online. He is a complete Nazi - an absolute hate machine.

Oh, I remember that and it's a big part of why I was waiting to see where this fucker would end up. Whoever picked him to be the head of the State Department's PUBLIC DIPLOMACY knew exactly what they were doing.

Also why I lost all respect for Murtaza Hussain. He interacts regularly with this guy on Twitter - happily following and retweeting. The Intercept has produced more creeps than the Daily Mail.

For me it was him thanking a certain man in Brazil for all he'd done for him, personally, the same day that certain main in Brazil was trashing all his former colleagues as MSDNC liberal scum. He also seems to have become genuinely reactionary, so no loss detected.

Yes! That too. An absolutely craven and gutless move.

Beyond bleak.

And every OTHER time there was racism pointed out Fox News had a perfectly good explanation for why it wasn't actually racist, so this time also there will be.
