1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.

The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
As it turns out, replacing all the experienced and dedicated people in the federal government with sycophantic wackos and then dismantling it by yanking funding and closing departments doesn’t really allow it to operate all that well.
This is one of the many reasons that fascism doesn’t really work well as a long term type of government.
Obviously this perpetually startled buffoon is not remotely qualified for this job. But can congress actually fire him?
Congressional Democrats can’t do shit.
Congressional republiQans won’t do shit.
Release the files.
Oh! So he CAN'T run SHIT after all? Who knew?!
Even he looks surprised.
this guy always looks like he has no idea why he's in this situation
Good job confirmationist fuckwits. Pretend to care now. You’re SO fooling us.
When it actually mattered they voted to confirm him. Everything else is just performative drivel. Two faced spineless pricks.
This guy looks like even more of a buffoon than ever.
What were his credentials again, exactly?
The enthusiasm with which he chortled Donnie's sagging octogenarian ballsack.
He was a was a Youtuber that streamed his videos game session online IIRC.
But he did the dogwhistle and everything.
I like how quickly it was "trans shooter" then after someone living with trans and now back to nothing.
The amount of damage done here is not accidental.
Oh NO!! HEARINGS!!
Keep treating fascists like they operate in good faith and you’ll just get more fascists. Can’t win an argument with a shameless hypocrite- no use even arguing in the first place!
