      No, he’s a poly-sci graduate: moldable lump of clay setup by the Heritage Foundation to sink or swim. Seems like he hasn’t screwed up badly enough to be coat-hooked offstage just yet.

    it’s inspiring that in the states you can be a convicted felon, and/or just a totally unqualified moron with no experience in any sort of political office (see: POTUS) and get a high profile position in the federal government. america truly is the land of opportunity

      There’s a reason that the minimum age to run for president is 35. But rules and regulations don’t matter anymore.

      Hey, he at least has experience with grocery shoppers, which can be awful people to deal with, just like terrorists!

        if you can handle customers you can definitely deal with a bunch of terrorists. terrorists usually have better justifications for their actions

    More concerned with the 22 then what he was doing at 17. I’m not against younger blood in leadership roles but you got to have done the job at least somewhat. If the guy was 35 or so and had been at it for a decade, that’d be a different beast. This feels like a nepo hire

        The card would likely be older than him

        I can’t get over how a kid who did high school over zoom during COVID is now in charge of terror prevention for the US

        like what the fuck
