Brooke Rollins is an attorney and the president and CEO of the America First Policy Institute (imagine Project 2025 but worse).

What exactly does she know about agriculture that would make Donald Trump appoint her as the Secretary of Agriculture?

The people wanted Trump to return. The people will get exactly what they deserve.

It’s only the fate of the nation and planet at stake.

solentgreen-24.bsky.social•96 days ago

Since when do credentials matter to tRump?

rucksac.bsky.social•96 days ago

She knows grifting!

leftwingnutjob.bsky.social•96 days ago

She knows if it smells like manure its probably just trumps diaper

betterfedthandead.bsky.social•96 days ago

It's like he's dismantling everything that makes America, America ! From our food sys, our medical sys, all of our protections, our ability to pay for things, our intelligence, our resources, our status in the world, to any pride or dignity we might have left !

havfree.bsky.social•96 days ago

My head is going to fall off from so much SMH lately.

sh60sue.bsky.social•96 days ago

And the cussing. I shake my head and cuss at the same time

tomquixote.bsky.social•96 days ago

Yep, Brooke Rollins in agriculture is like a fish trying to climb a tree - out of her element and gasping for relevance

donnahook.bsky.social•96 days ago

About as much as any of his other picks for any other offices: Zippity-doo-dah.

teresa007.bsky.social•96 days ago

She might have a veggie patch in the back yard,

citronella707.bsky.social•96 days ago

How to shovel sh88?

mrbigboots.bsky.social•96 days ago

Her only job will be to take the money and run.

coffeeecandi44.bsky.social•96 days ago

Going by the same format as Trump, he doesn't know anything! Trump has dementia and just stole America! Who would have thought that would happen right under our noses!

mtfromcc.bsky.social•96 days ago

Another right winger who wants to pull the plug on government.

porschein.bsky.social•96 days ago

Their specialty is transferring public money (Yours), to private interests.

riotiempo.bsky.social•96 days ago

Workin a hoe?

sassysnarkyone.bsky.social•96 days ago

She was in 4H!!!

My cat is more qualified.

dawnoceanharmony.bsky.social•96 days ago

Most of his cabinet pics are tied to 🚨“Project 2025”🚨- they are planning to take over our government with the help of the United States Supreme Court, of course!

flamingprogressive.bsky.social•96 days ago

She looks evil

miked-up.bsky.social•96 days ago

Makes sense. She has experience with sowing doubt and shoveling fertilizer.

johnnynovio.bsky.social•96 days ago

She probably mentioned going to a farmer's market on the weekend and with her looks, Trump felt she was qualified.

tdaz12.bsky.social•96 days ago

They continue to bring the worst possible people into the government.

goldcountryrich.bsky.social•96 days ago

Her qualifications? Knows where to get a b00b job?

tinselwing.bsky.social•96 days ago

I’mAg Department is in charge of distributing SNAP, WIC and school lunches. Project2025 wants to swipe them out to HHS. There they can be lumped with “welfare” (unpopular word) rather than “food for kids.” (Heartwarming term),

tinselwing.bsky.social•96 days ago

Making it easier to cut. One more Republican enamored of kids eating chips and dog food.

paul.ofthenorth.ca•96 days ago

It's a function of fascist governments that those picked for positions don't have to have any relevant experience or education, because they're not being selected for the specific role. They are there to forward the fascist agenda. They share the ideology. Generally speaking, it doesn't work well

evilmermaid.bsky.social•96 days ago

Full of bullshit

victoriaroseart.bsky.social•96 days ago

She kind of looks like Melania? That's all I've got

historygeekinga.bsky.social•96 days ago

I thought he appointed Kelly Loeffler

fkgexhausted.bsky.social•96 days ago

Me too

sorkel3.bsky.social•95 days ago

She knows to peel cucumbers for cucumber salad?

spartan47.bsky.social•96 days ago

Nothing! That’s why he appointed her! Making America great again?

johndedie.bsky.social•96 days ago

Actually an unqualified person in that department which affects Red States and tariffs only will hurt farmers, I am all here for.

zombierotten.bsky.social•96 days ago

she went to Fish Camp.

bluegila.bsky.social•96 days ago

She actually has an undergrad Agriculture degree from Texas A&M. After that, she never actually worked in Ag, from what I can read. Doubt that will matter to their agenda of cutting food stamps, WIC, etc. though.

not4u2c.bsky.social•96 days ago

He’s just throwing spaghetti on the wall to see what sticks….instead of ketchup

shazyyz.bsky.social•96 days ago

Must keep remembering... knowledge not a requirement or priority.

juliehutchinskoch.bsky.social•94 days ago

Nothing! She knows nothing. But apparently knowing stuff is not a criteria in his candidate selection process.

ednad.bsky.social•96 days ago

I would guess she snorts wheat grass

mistermattflanders.bsky.social•96 days ago

Apparently she grew up on a farm in Texas and has an undergrad degree in agricultural development. But Politico says she got the gig because it was the final big appointment, and she was the “last person standing at Mar-a-Largo.” In other words, she’s just another loyalist.

franklymrshankly17.bsky.social•96 days ago

It’s not a tough job for her. Her only job will be will be dolling out farming subsidies when the Trump tariffs kick in.

cateyezgreen.bsky.social•96 days ago

There is only one requirement, that she kiss the orange blob’s ring.

kamimagic.bsky.social•96 days ago

She has none. I have no confidence in his choices for his cabinet.

jeffkussow.bsky.social•96 days ago

She has a couple potted tomato plants on her deck.

miserieschild.bsky.social•96 days ago

civilisation.bsky.social•96 days ago

✋She knows how to destroy agriculture as a distraction while he becomes a dictator

kmk1072.bsky.social•96 days ago

Manure. She knows manure.

ataleortwo.bsky.social•96 days ago

Perhaps she is well versed in bullshit. 🤷🏻‍♂️

supergoofnz.bsky.social•96 days ago

Is it because she has the IQ of a turnip, perhaps?

retinco.bsky.social•96 days ago

We'll find out she has a backyard garden. For Trump, that would be more than enought to nominate her.

gototown.bsky.social•96 days ago

Trump's trade policies will hit rural communities with a trifecta: Wal-mart raising prices, China buying corn and beans from Brazil and RFK Jr. banning pesticides. Rural voters will see stars and I don't mean Kid Rock and Hulk Hogan.

catnip4all.bsky.social•95 days ago

The Secretary of Agriculture oversees SNAP and USDA. I’m sure she’d try to get rid of both.

miaforsenate26.bsky.social•95 days ago

maybe she eats corn

irishladylisa.bsky.social•96 days ago

A backyard garden?

littlejimmy115.bsky.social•96 days ago

All those farmers that voted for Trump are probably completely dumbfounded

weaselfd.bsky.social•95 days ago

They will be by the time the Trump trade wars mean that none of their overseas buyers buy anything from them any longer because it’s just too damn expensive.
