Sex with a 17yr old also!

@kenwhite.bsky.social

This is the dumbest timeline.

Another new list;
* sexual predators working in the 34-felon White House

shawnguerra.bsky.social•102 days ago

Yeah why doesn’t trump pick someone who has a different expertise?

shawnguerra.bsky.social•102 days ago

Than he

cjistired.bsky.social•102 days ago

Experience? Pssht! Whatevah.

stinapag.bsky.social•102 days ago

I live in a world of Ken Paxton, who is so bad at attorney generalling that his entire senior staff whistleblowed him.

And this might be worse.

I hate these people so goddamn much.

jennmill.bsky.social•102 days ago

Isn't J Edgar Hoover supposed to be FBI Director, not AG?

joshuaguerci.bsky.social•102 days ago

Senate can’t really do anything to block this appointment can they?

Partisan politics has basically enabled autocratic functions 🤔

chewydefense.bsky.social•102 days ago

Hey Susan Collins....so has Trump learned his lesson yet?

tomwills.bsky.social•102 days ago

An AG’s salary can pay for a lot of school supplies, for those of a philanthropic bent. Just sayin’…

natashabeery.bsky.social•102 days ago

Saw the breaking news from NYT and had to check that it wasn't an Onion satire piece. Good lord, what's next, Marjorie Taylor Greene to run FEMA?

coyoty.bsky.social•102 days ago

Now you done it.

liamgreybeerd.bsky.social•102 days ago

Ok, I've seen enough for today. I'm going to get back to the heavy drinking I left behind last weekend.

brandyclandry.bsky.social•102 days ago

Lol easy tiger!

paolobernardi.bsky.social•102 days ago

I was expecting the Qanon Shaman for this but I concede Gaetz has more RICO experience, it makes more sense.

jillkent.bsky.social•102 days ago

To beat the sex traffickers
You must become a sex trafficker
I imagine that is the line the Qanon adjacents will have to use to cope with this selection.

frankreiser.bsky.social•101 days ago

And illicit drug use?🤔

cosmicaug.bsky.social•102 days ago

I mean, ...that's not nothing.

cosmicaug.bsky.social•102 days ago

And should be that unexpected? On Trump's 2016 campaign he ran on his expertise on political corruption by more or less bragging about bribing politicians.

policegazette.bsky.social•102 days ago

It feels like Trump is just trolling at this point. Like he can't believe everyone is letting him get away with absolutely everything he can think of, and he'll keep getting crazier just for the fun of it.

jail4magats.bsky.social•102 days ago

A USAG who traffics, drugs, and rapes underage girls...

Nice job, America.

germansplainer.bsky.social•102 days ago

Well, he’s still got time until next year.

jeremyrjames.bsky.social•102 days ago

Familiarity with the pardon application process? Check!

intolerantcentrist.bsky.social•102 days ago

He’s now has the ultimate in representation.

adgate812.bsky.social•102 days ago

What a joke. Mara Lago is full of desperate narcissists right now and the head narcissist is an absolute moron. This administration will be completely inept by design.

coyoty.bsky.social•102 days ago

The word of the week is kakitocracy.

adgate812.bsky.social•102 days ago

Yep that fits. With a side of plutocracy.

coyoty.bsky.social•102 days ago

*kakistocracy

ryanknight.bsky.social•102 days ago

That’s okay. His boss has extensive federal criminal experience. Everything will be fine.

irateoverlord.bsky.social•102 days ago

Got emmmmm

baconwrangler.bsky.social•102 days ago

I’m sure that quashing any Federal probe of his Venmo activity was a major impetus for him lobbying for the AG position.

sammie1863.bsky.social•102 days ago

Trump is going to pardon a sex trafficker and pedophile to squash an active investigation in order appoint him AG of the US a position for which the pedophile has no experience

brighttail.bsky.social•102 days ago

Trump is appointing people and acting as if he already has some sort of agreement with Senator Thune to recess the Senate so he can get all his appointments in with no confirmation process. As it is I can't see how Gabbard, Hegseth or Gaetz gets in.

privacylawchi.bsky.social•102 days ago

I thought I had lost the capacity to be surprised but this one actually got me

robhopkins.bsky.social•102 days ago

Be honest. He only worked two years in a civil litigation firm. If he went to DoJ, he’d be support for a line prosecutor. At best. Correct?

flylefty.bsky.social•102 days ago

Apparently Jeffrey Epstein was not available

rnwarrior.bsky.social•102 days ago

Does it count as experience if you're the defendent?

passwordismiket.bsky.social•102 days ago

I would pay money to get a reaction quote from Joel Greenberg

mrwilson007.bsky.social•102 days ago

Trump: “You thought I was a horrible president before? Hold my beer.”

sstein.bsky.social•102 days ago

But his knowledge in that arena is intimate.

rexipsaloquitur.bsky.social•102 days ago

bringing a much-needed suspect's perspective to the administration of justice...

dolanj64.bsky.social•102 days ago

Given the likely limited tenures of these picks, it’s pretty easy to predict who’s going to be on Dancing With The Stars next year.

coyoty.bsky.social•102 days ago

They already had one guest with an ankle monitor.

And people are wondering why women (well those with some sanity left) are saying you can’t trust men and young men are following crazy guys fantasizing themselves to be some sort of alpha while sounding like fantasy frogs.

richyk.bsky.social•102 days ago

How come no one ever nominates a bankruptcy lawyer or judge for AG. I’m sensing bias against Article I.

I mean what if we want to sell off parts of the country, who’d be better positioned.

secretsandlaws.bsky.social•102 days ago

Don't forget the reported illegal drug use.

evilwhippet.bsky.social•102 days ago

And under aged girls.
Allegedly.

johnb85013.bsky.social•102 days ago

drmarco.bsky.social•102 days ago

cantard.bsky.social•102 days ago

I mean, honestly, I was expecting a hard-line State AG, Senator with legal chops, or Bill Barr type.

Trump is making obscenely obvious choices that advertise his cabinet will be political creatures with little to no merit.

Can't wait till he makes Kushner's dad Sec of Commerce.
