Welp...Elmo and Vivek, Department of Government Efficiency.

Just an absolute fucking joke. Elmo shouldn't sniff a damned thing since he lied about his immigration status. Only seems fair. Need to find out if these positions need confirmation. If not, every Republican that bitched and moaned about Obama's unconfirmed czars can go fuck themselves.

The amount of panic in the DC business circle is going to be fascinating. All the companies vying for NASA bids should just pack it up.

What is scary is they will have the WH ear on what they think is important.

I would be very sincerely interested in your take on Hegseth, and that interview posted.

Hegseth has been running grifting PACs and on Fox News, his concern is keeping Woke out of the military.  He achieved the rank of major, his service can in no way be impugned but he is no more qualified than any other former 04 to run the DoD.  Things are going to get stupid so fast, usually the DoD is the last  domino to get treated like this.  
 

Toonces look out! @Chad Fuck

I mean let's be honest. Fuck yes. 

What makes you excited about the appointments? I'm worried about all the agencies and important oversight that's gonna be going away, not to mention that enforcement for laws that trump disagrees with is going to stop completely

Well, I'd say that because his service was in the Minnesota National Guard, he's less qualified than the average O4.  Not that I am impugning his service per se.

And, normally you'd think he'd be well-advised by senior civilian and military staff, but you can't count on that anymore.

Hegseth advocates nuclear first strikes so it makes perfect sense that Ana likes him.

I mean I don't know the guy at all, but with a family like that I doubt that he fundamentally rejects American nuclear deterrence doctrine. He may very well be pro-genocide though, which would put him in good company with most of the current admin.

I served 6 years in the military including deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan as well as rescue and relief operations for multiple hurricanes including Hurricane Katrina. I have a Masters in Public Affairs and have served in government for close to 20 years. I’m literally just as qualified as this fucking guy and that is ludicrous to say out loud.

The irony of creating additional government bureaucracy and spending on said department to address governmental efficiency is not lost upon me.

You are more qualified. 
 

I am not even a fan of giving the role to former flag officers, especially with little separation from the uniformed services as it’s a fundamentally different role to run the bureaucracy and be a civilian advisor.  
 

But damn, a Fox News host who ran PACs and wrote a book about Woke.
