I make stuff - at least I start to make stuff - with string and read/listen to books. I am not giving up and will try to figure out what to do next besides listen to left wing podcasts.

in the trump administration, “merit” is pronounced “white” like how strom thrumond said it.
Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story.

Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver.

This is what "merit" means to them.

What stood out to me is the last line about Columbia FORCING their criminals into the US. I don't recall hearing about any flights loaded with known criminals being sent to the US by any foreign government. On the other hand, Trump forced 1500 known criminals onto the streets of the US.

If Gaetz withdraws or gets voted down, I hope Dems will turn to the question of why the GOP president tried to put a child sex trafficker in charge of federal law enforcement. I have very little confidence in Dem leadership, but that’s not the kind of thing Trump should be able to tiptoe away from.
