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!
This guy is a plant
I’d still take a misanthropic ficus over a conservative.
(its a suicidal plant)
Given time, we will see more weird hairstyles from the Regime…
I bet we could rng ppl in these comments 10x more capable.
Did he find him at the Four Seasons?
Thing is though, headline means nothing; I used to run a landscaping business and work in retail back in college, so I’d probably fit that description too. All it means is the guy knows how to actually work.
Although at 22, there isn’t really enough passage of time for useful management experience.
a 22-year-old doesn’t know shit about preventing terrorism I don’t care what the fuck their background is
I’m about as old as he is!
Let’s not stoop to the level of Republicans who called AOC “a waitress”. The issue should be his lack of experience, not the jobs he had in the past. He’s only been out of college for a year (BA in politics and law from Univ of Texas) and has little or no experience to qualify him to head anything. He should be doing the same entry level work as any recent graduate. This appointment is just typical Trump incompetence.
AOC was a waitress after attending Boston University where she double-majored in international relations and economics.
Fugate (the chose 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 things you mentioned are completely relevant and are what people should be citing about this guy. The fact that he used to pull weeds is as irrelevant as the fact that AOC used to wait tables. I don’t see what’s difficult at all to understand about that, or why people have any issues with this simple truth. It’s not like criticizing an improper criticism of the bad guys supports the bad guys, I’m supporting legitimate criticism vs silly pettiness.
Unilateral appointment to a national security role is way different from a vote to represent a group of people. AOC also had basically no experience outside that of relevant college coursework.
It’s not stopping - it’s calling out the most blatant of nepotistic appointments in our history (not just this one) for exactly the reasons you’re listing above.
I may be hyper focusing on wording a little, but I feel like it’s a pretty huge difference.
I don’t care how different they are, calling out that somebody used to mow lawns or wait tables or pick up dog shit or whatever is always petty and unnecessary. Let’s leave that to MAGA and act like grownups.
As for AOC having “basically no experience outside of relevant college coursework” - she interned in Ted Kennedy’s office on immigration and foreign affairs, worked for a Hispanic-focused nonprofit, started a small publishing business, and worked for Bernie Sanders’ campaign, all while doing second jobs in restaurants. She also spent two years mounting her own House campaign. She was focused on politics and relevant issues through her whole 20s. Borrowing your argumentative tactic, “there’s a pretty huge difference” between her and a recent college grad.
But in both cases calling out their past shit jobs is irrelevant.
"Since leaving college, Fugate has had a meteoric rise in the political world, having served as an “advance team member” on President Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign, according to his LinkedIn page.
An avowed Republican, he also interned at the Heritage Foundation…
Fugate was reportedly hired as a “special assistant” in an immigration office at the DHS in February, according to ProPublica. He then took over CP3 after its previous director quit."
The Heritage Foundation tells us everything, he’s a POS.
As qualified as any of them
that doesn’t make it acceptable. if anything it makes it less so.
weakness is a sum of all parts, if all parts weak, there is no strength.
Name checks out.
