I think the tally has now just hit 30 senior appointees by Trump in his previous or current Administration who worked at Fox, which seems to be the most important qualification for the most senior positions in the US government under Trump.

He doesn’t have policies. He’s never had policies. Someone says something to him, he asks “Will this make my dick look big?” and if he thinks the answer is yes, he does it.
Trump = Fox News creation. Murdoch's Newscorp used to profit from ads in papers. Internet killed it. Changed biz model to installing govts (UK, Oz, USA) & getting kickback laws as quid pro quo. Now his minions ARE the govt. Rupert Murdoch dead soon, but most powerful global politician in history.
This will keep the uninformed pleased while billionaires continue to financially rape them; demolishing any hope of their living a life free from industrial and corporate slavery.
Does anyone remember the movie "Being There?" In case you don't, it's about a man who spent his entire life in front of a TV & when forced to leave his home he goes into the world with his remote control clicking it at everyone & everything because TV is his reality. I want out of that movie!
Imagine a world with no wars.

This is heading for a trainwreck. When the cult realizes price are going up, they lost insurance, gov services do not work without the" deep state". They have reduced ss and medicare. Then when grandma and grandpa are on the street without medicaid they will have to pay or provide housing and care.
The requirements are: rapist, nazi, spy, sycophant, Fox personality, 2025 author, "fresh out of Central Casting", 🍄 sucker, billionaire.
Mugshot's a plus!
They have always been the official deep State propagandaist, what changed this cycle with the creation of the term sane washing a term so new that auto voice does yet recognize it the entire corporate MSM has flipped over obeyed in advance and became the propagandist of the fascist regime.
Legally Fox News is so divorced from facts that they argued in court it’s actually ‘fiction’. In other words Trump’s cabinet is full of actors and clowns.
Trump is surrounding himself with ‘yes’ people because he doesn’t want interference while building his dictatorship. Case in point…firing the FBI and shredding DOJ as an example.
Trump doesn't know anyone who is actually qualified for any of these positions. All the ones that were worked during his 1st administration and 40 of 44 called him unfit for the office.
He knows what a powerful role TV stardom (+ hate campaigning) played for him in 2016, so he & his mentor (& other authoritarian oligarchs) decided to run similar plays in 2024. And it got him another Squeaker Win.
The plan is retribution. Wholesale destruction of the government through doge and incompetence as payback for daring to hold him accountable for his crimes. He wants it all to burn. So hire the worst yes men possible that will do whatever he wants.
I think there's a simple explanation for this: the US have elected a President whose only knowledge of politics comes from watching Fox, which he does obsessively, all the time.
My bet is that the deportations and real destabilising actions will come close to the end of his term. When the fighting and rioting starts , he will push for a 3rd term to stabilise it all .
I think if Hegseth’s nomination goes south there’s a pretty good chance he won’t be able to return to Fox. Most talent contracts have language requiring you to avoid behavior that would bring the employer into disrepute. And they haven’t been talking about him at all on air.
That comes as no surprise, those are the people that kept spreading misinformation, conspiracy theories and biased views that helped him stay current and sell his crap.
No, the most important qualification (at least this time around) is willingness to do what DJT wants without regard for whether it's legal or even Constitutional.
This made me think of the Reich Ministry for Public Enlightenment. The first weeks of 1933 saw the Nazis putting the press to work to drum up fear of a Communist Uprising. Franz Eher publishing house was the mouthpiece of the Nazi Party, and that publishing house became some of the largest around.
I still don't understand why senior govt officials in US do not need to be elected. In Can and Britain, Cabinet ministers are chosen from the benches of elected MPs.
No one voted for Trumps picks, and they hold all the power in the country.
Yes, which guarantees that his administration will be another shit show. Folks are going to be pining for Saint Joe, when food gets more expensive, and goods are less readily available.
This is his primary source of information and advice. It was clear on the debate : “they are eating cats, they are eating dogs….” “ I heard it on TV “ so it is true
Trump's now defunct pick of Matt Gaetz was nothing more than Trump handing Gaetz a get out of jail free card. His pick allowed Gaetz to quit the house of representatives to save face before the Ethics committee released their report.
The Russian pipeline to propaganda output is Fox so of course like a good asset that he is, Trump hired all of the oligarch paid propagandists. This is about to get ugly.
The Ministry of Disinformation dba FoxNewsCorp is the AAA Trump Administration team.
Every FoxNaziNews player’s dream is to get called up to the fascist show.
In fairness, Fox has been a part of the team since 2015, so understandable. At least they won’t need to teach them new talking points and they’re all in on the 🍊💩
In the can't change the stupidity at this point of my life. The movie Wag the Dog has become a reality show. We are so stupid and the World knows. We will have military strikes and your kiddo will be drafted. Mark me. Cynic realist.
Don’t you know, my captain? America has become Fox News, and this is merely a spinoff of the You’re fired/No Your Hired game show. It’s cosmic payback time. 😀
Trump is in the process of bankrupting Fox like he has every other business he's had in the past. By hiring all their administrators and broadcasters. Trump is turning the new Trump administration into the new Fox propaganda station. The White House Fox Broadcasting Station 🙄😂
Dipshit Donnie can't even fuckin see straight, let alone make appointments. "What do you think of these jeans?" "Sir that's a tube top, and quit trying to put it on".

This is one reason parents should let their kids be themselves. Otherwise they might grow up to be maniacal megalomaniacs.

That literally is how deep he is.

It makes complete sense, as these are the only things Trump is good at: reality TV, acting like a billionaire and pussy grabbing (and worse).
So he picks lots of mini-me's
Now they get to do it from the inside.
Fact checkers are going to be very tired.
No, he only wanted to be president to stay out of prison. Any other motivations he might have had were a distant second. 🤨
Hard to imagine the state the USA will be in after a couple of years of this.
Post Brexit UK on steroids.
No one voted for Trumps picks, and they hold all the power in the country.
Oh wait…

Either Trump's cult or the one Gabbard is in.
Great article on that out right now too.
a telenovela -- the greates TV soap of all times ?
for big money -- they might start pondering...
Randomly.
And we do appreciate your opinion and your confidence in us. 😜
Russian style government.
Of course in 2028 Trump and his minions will be re-elected with 80% of the vote. A landslide!
💙✌🏽🌻
Can they entertain?
It's going to be the shit show that intelligent people have said it would be.
Too many intelligent people said fuck it and didn't vote so now as Plato said we will be ruled by morons.
