And that’s basically it!
I've never seen a more Lunchables face. Brown put your eyebrow down
You know he's been practising that for hours in front of the mirror.
Lunchables! You gotta keep that. Wonder if his Mommy still packs his lunchables and lays out his clothes every morning.
Canada, now is your chance to invade
Burn the white house again.
Given time, we will see more weird hairstyles from the Regime...
Nailed it. I knew it looked familiar :)
The other side is almost normal looking.
Are there other headlines right now that receive less airtime while this appointment is discussed?
Haha headline, nice burn
The amount of incompetence in this administration is staggering.
Only the best of the best of the best.
His sole qualification is probably winning The Official Trump Bootlicking Contest.
DHS will eat him alive. He is in way over his head and will eventually become a scapegoat. Can’t wait!
They must be planning a false flag and this is the patsy that will take the blame for dropping the ball.
As always.
The only real terrorism in the world invariably comes from the US regime or from a US proxy.
Why do I think he'd look more the part, if he were wearing a t-shirt that said "I'm voting for Pedro?"
I bet we could rng ppl in these comments 10x more capable.
AOC was a waitress, let’s shit on shitty people for their shitty actions. Let’s not shit on them because they worked “unskilled jobs” that’s just elitism. I’m sure this guy has skeletons in his 22 year old closet, but being a gardener isn’t one of them.
AOC was a waitress after attending Boston University where she double-majored in international relations and economics.
Fugate (the chode in the picture) attended UT SA until 2024 with no documented majors. no military experience. no counterterrorism training.
he did work as an intern at the Heritage Foundation until his appointment to this current position.
so tell me, why do you feel the need to draw a relationship between Fugate and AOC when they are obviously no where near related?
The connection is simply the hypocrisy of republicans who yell about AOC being underqualified, while being totally ok with someone actually completely unqualified.
AOC represents people, not pretend to be an expert lol.
Congress people are supposed to be amateurs. That's why they have staff to help them understand the text of the legislation they vote on. They represent the peopl's interests (or are supposed to), and their staff help them with the understanding of the text. All that's required for being in congress is just ability to read.
Cabinet and other similar appointed positions are supposed to require skill and experience.
I guess what this is really about is that just like wokeism or the Democrats as they use minorities as human shields, the right wing also likes to appeal to the working class. But in reality, the elite don't need experts. They just need people to follow orders. Which means the beatings will continue until the moral improves. You have to be able to sacrifice your child to the son gawd as well as your Machavillian abilities to do the deed. The real issue here is that most Yankee pig dogs don't have the ability to accurately communicate the issues so we just live in a world of memes. Like, we are nothing but a reactionary mob because we allow ourselves to be a reactionary mob. And this is perfect for the police state because it gives the justification because of optics to beat the shit out of us when we try to fight back. And it is through the left and right paradigm that they maintain the social order. VIA DIVIDE and Rule. Careful what they do overseas because it's going to come back to you and me. I've lived long enough and I know America is getting what it deserves and there's more to come. It's just right around the corner. We either seize the means of production or we lock ourselves in our own chains. Voting Democrat won't change a thing. And it's all the same to those that can afford to pay off the corrupt police who nowadays have deputy gangs. Welcome to the Lords and Ladies of the Clown Kingdumb. You know, you kinda get peace of mind knowing that regardless of your own outcome, these individuals will face consequences. It is a mad world. If your on the side of the truth you don't need validation. We have seen all of this before. If you are literate and study history you know what comes next. It is easy to be a prophet when there is nothing new under the son
Being an ex-anything at 22 is bad
Being called an "ex gardener" at 22 is just pissing on him
I have one very simple question:
Who … are … his … parents?
Based on his LinkedIn, and what appeared in the story, I’m not sure what sets him apart from thousands of other wannabe MAGA assholes.
Which triggers my spideysense. Well that and the arrogant fucking faces he’s putting out into the interwebs like he’s Don Juan De La Nooch.
My guess is he’s probably a nepo-baby and his folks are either influential or made a ‘donation’ to get him appointed.
To quote Ocean’s Eleven:
“Never heard of him.” “That’s why I don’t doubt it.”
