People who think employees of the FDA are an unaccountable elite voted to have a billionaire government contractor who hangs out with the president select who gets to be elected to office based on his feelings.

"Gaetz, Gabbard and Hegseth: Trump’s Picks Are a Show of Force"

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/13/us/politics/gaetz-gabbard-hegseth-trump-appointees.html

"President-elect Donald J. Trump’s cabinet picks show that he prizes loyalty over experience and is fueled by retribution."

#Trump #NYT #paywall #press


"There will be a reversal of human rights, an erosion of safety for millions of people (and, sadly, including the nations we influence around the world), the rejection of basic principles of the law, and an increasing enslavement of democracy to oligarchs and billionaires.

That’s what Christian nationalists want. That’s Project 2025."

"All the cabinet picks and staffing announcements this week prove that the Jeremiahs among us were right in advance — and what might be left will be lament in the coming rubble."

"Trump's choice of Matt Gaetz and Tulsi Gabbard for top roles signals darkness and chaos ahead. … This shows right off the bat that MAGA chaos is going to reign."

Several of them tell me that getting their parents, other elders, friends of that generation, to acknowledge that they made a colossal mistake in colluding with the Nazis was never possible. Their parents and elders could not and would not admit that they had made horrible choices even when the error of their ways was glaringly obvious in the destroyed nation all around them.

Helping to usher in a fascist regime, as many Germans did in the Nazi period, inevitably leads to chaos, rubble, destruction — including for the very people who made the decision to help the process.

But getting people to see the folly of their very stupid, blind choices even when everything is in rubble around them: that's not easy.

I have German friends who were children during WWII.

Let's hope. Let's hope that the chaos Trump is inducing, his attempt to break the government and expose it to ridicule — serving Putin's wildest dreams — shows many of us including some Republicans who a clown show he runs.

I have my doubts, though, that his supporters will see any of this anytime soon. I doubt, frankly, that the chaos they've willingly helped set in motion, which will immiserate them along with their "enemies," will open their eyes.

"Yes. It’s horrible. Everything is horrible. But this Gaetz nomination (along with the other two) may finally convince people that Trump really is the menace to America that Democrats and never-Trumpers have been warning he was. There may be no better person than Gaetz to convince the Republicans who hate him how poor Trump’s judgment is."

"Donald Trump’s election is a triumph for the politics of the doomsday bunker, which is bad news for the world’s environment.

This is the idea that in an age of climate disruption, nature extinction and ever wider social inequality, the best chance of survival for those who can afford it is to construct a personal shelter, where they can keep the desperate masses at bay. It is survival of the richest."

#Trump's Cabinet picks:

Gaetz: Just resigned from the House to, reportedly, block a damning report from the Ethics Committee, which was investigating him for sexual misconduct.

Gabbard: Secretly met with Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad in 2017 and blamed the U.S. and NATO for Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

Hegseth: Lobbied Trump to pardon U.S. service members accused of war crimes and has argued women should not serve in combat roles.

"Trump’s chaos calibrates itself … inside a unified and powerful ecosystem of rightwing news, online content and viral disinformation that has grown more powerful throughout this era, spewing the same falsehoods in unison day after day, on repeat, for years. It is the 'political technology' by which swathes of the population have voted in effect to anoint a king in the belief it will amount to more freedom."

"The decline in voter participation is what allows the Republicans to cosplay a mandate. If the elite political media plays along, that play-pretend becomes reality. Any story you read that uses the word mandate in any way except ironically is playing you for a fool…."

"This election was about identity after all—an American identity which has become more tolerant of authoritarianism and less committed to democracy over the past decade. As Trump’s opponents try to figure out why they were defeated and how they can resist him over the next four years, they need to confront the dark reality about who we have become as a nation."

"Americans didn’t elect Trump because they were offended by the Democrats—they elected Trump because they like him. They know everything they need to know about Trump. He has been broadcasting his cruelty, hatred, and self-obsession into every American home for nearly a decade."

"The old narratives about the Democrats’ contempt for the working class and their racially divisive politics don’t apply to this election. The argument that Americans are in so much economic pain that they had to vote for Trump doesn’t hold up: Unemployment is just over 4 percent, the stock market was hitting all-time highs before Trump won, and inflation has plummeted from a peak of over 9 percent to 2.4 percent."

"A cultural and political chasm has opened up between Americans who still care about the integrity of their democracy and those who do not. We have entered an age of political nihilism in which our traditional conceptions of ideological and identitarian conflict must be abandoned. This election was about the identity of the United States as a whole, and it didn’t tell an inspiring story."

"The median age of a Fox News viewer is 68, and liberals have joked about the network 'brainwashing' their conservative parents. But rightwing social media content has effectively targeted and radicalized younger people, who — unlike the typical Hannity-obsessed grandpa — can vote for the next several decades.

Jan 6 rioters to be pardoned?

I ams are they are hoping but whether Trump’s useful fools can expect any loyalty from a man who clearly has little to anyone I wonder. After all someone might do the same to him.

#Trump has picked Evangelical Christian Mike #Huckabee as the US Ambassador to #Israel.

Huckabee: "So the Muslims will go to the mosque, and they will have their day of prayer, and they come out of there like uncorked animals - throwing rocks and burning cars."

Expect no change in #genocide-al policy; just more 'efficient' execution (sic).
Reuters: "Members of President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team are drawing up a list of military officers to be fired, potentially to include the Joint Chiefs of Staff, two sources said, in what would be an unprecedented shakeup at the Pentagon.

The planning for the firings is at an early stage..."

Why #Biden will go down in the annals as a war criminal. No POTUS has been worse on #Palestine. Anything #Trump does to #Gaza from here on out will only be built on a foundation laid by #GenocideJoe.

“#US President Joe Biden yesterday reiterated his absolute support for #Israel, which continues to commit a genocidal war in Gaza.

Biden made the remark in #press statements at the beginning of his meeting with his Israeli counterpart Isaac Herzog at the White House.”

#Trump #Biden #Harris... Politicians generally... "They do not hate each other. They do not see one another as an existential threat to the nation. They are not enemies. They’re barely even opponents. When the show is over they hug and kiss like boxers after weeks of phony #trashtalk made solely to sell pay-per-views."

This is FUNNY! Still, DO NOT TRUST HER.
"#Trump names #TulsiGabbard as pick for head of National Intelligence"

'She has broken with Washington on issues from #Russia/ #Ukraine, which she blamed in part on #NATO expansion, and the #Syria-n civil war.

#Gabbard ... met with Syrian 👉dictator😂 Bashar al-Assad in 2019 and declared that he was "not an enemy" of the U.S... an unusually high-profile pick for a bureaucratic job coordinating between US intel agencies.'

Very good article in the British Medical Journal ( BMJ) on how disinformation enabled Donald Trump’s second term and is a crisis for democracies everywhere.
