Truth - I won't even sully the #DEI moniker by labeling the majority of Trump's unqualified cabinet picks in this manner. They're just incompetent sycophants who lack any backbone.
We’re meant to calmly accept the absurd idea that any white man is innately qualified for any job or position, no matter what his education, resume or proven capabilities and any non-white man or woman inherently stole their way into employment via #DEI. This of course is pure, undiluted fascism.

Is Donald Trump the most ignorant President in the history of the United States? I can't think of one! Ignorance is lethal - Resist!
THE REASON THAT FEMA EXISTS IS BECAUSE STATES COULD NOT DEAL WITH LARGE SCALE DISASTERS BY THEMSELVES *IN THE 1970S.*
Now the disasters are bigger, there are homeland security threats, and this guy wants to roll us back 50 years.
