Even if he’ll get confirmed, is Matt gaetz certain he wants to subject himself to a confirmation hearing where senators can ask him about anything they want?

Yes.

per Traveling Man, we could have avoided this had we all been watching more of the mainstream media, been less concerned with the rape of women, and more concerned with the price of eggs.

it would elevate him among republicans/libertarians - they elected a rapist. He doesn't care, about half of Americans don't care.

we are a stupid country.

Maybe he'll appoint MTG & Boebert to something next. Gotta reward the sycophants.

Tulsi Gabbard for DNI (that's Director of National Intelligence. INTELLIGENCE!). Matt Gaetz has been nominated for Attorney General 502811600

The clown show is on.

Oh my....

The statue of liberty is weeping. Screw you miser for saying you wanted this to get bad. I don't think you realized just what bad could actually be like.

I had hopes that trump might actually care about his legacy and try to do good. But not anymore. This is just purely rewards for all his minions that always said nice things about him and those kinds of people are among the worst of the worst.

The Dems lost the Presidency, the Senate, and the House. What the fuck did you think was going to happen? But yeah, let's all upvote Bob for making fun of my dinner choices.

Bob making fun of your dinner choices is meaningless to everyone else as it should be to you.

Bob has been correct too often in that no one with a working brain should have voted for Trump based on what he promised or what he accused the Democratics of creating, ie higher prices, (which were due to greedy corporations, which Harris was shouting over and over)

My advice, which they will never hear and wouldn't follow if they did, is to copy the Republicans, though I will say what the Democratics wouldn't have to lie like the Republicans do, and tell the country every single day from now until forever all the great things they are doing for the country and all the terrible things the Republicans are doing.

EVERY SINGLE DAY!

I can see the GOP US Senate giving approval and then we'll all experience what Texas has been living with AG Ken Paxton. A slippery pol who has regularly "almost" been found guilty.

It’s really difficult to understand. But 30 years from now people will laugh that the most important issue in 2024 was Palestine.

Told folks that was coming if Trump regained the presidency for more than 3 years.

Read On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from The Twentieth Century by Timothy Snyder Yale History prof.

Below is a quote from Snyder's interview with Trevor Noah on The Daily Show in May 2017

Fascism says nothing’s true. Your daily life is not important. The facts that you think you understand are not important. All that matters is the myth ― the myth of one nation as together the myth of the mystical connection with the leader.
When we think of “Post-truth,” we think it’s something new. We think it’s something at campuses. We think it’s something irrelevant. Actually, what post-truth does is it paves the way for regime change. If we don’t have access to facts, we can’t trust each other. Without trust, there’s no law. Without law, there’s no democracy.

So if you want to rip the heart out of a democracy directly, if you want to go right at it and kill it, what you do is you go after facts. And that is what modern authoritarians do.

Step one: You lie yourself, all the time. Step two: You say it’s your opponents and the journalists who lie. Step three: Everyone looks around and says, “What is truth? There is no truth.”

And then, resistance is impossible, and the game is over.

I think Miser, DWags and others (like myself) concern is justified. We (US voters) have elected a Putin protege who appears to be appointing true believers and puppets to every cabinet leadership position.

I wouldn't be shocked if Trump would use Article 2 Section 2 to adjourn Congress and use recess appointments if he suspects too many of his nominations get quashed by the Senate.

For most it was the economy. For progressives it was Palestine.

I doubt Trump is involved much in the picks. This is the work of Bannon, Miller, Carlson and the rest of his henchmen.
