Donald Trump Is Picking His
Cabinet. Here’s a Shortlist.

We are so fuck'en fucked it's unfucking believable!

Secretary of State

Whether Mr. Trump picks an ideologue or a seasoned foreign policy hand from past Republican administrations, his challenge will be that the State Department is the centerpiece of the post-1945 experiment of alliance-building and globalism, which Mr. Trump said he would dismantle.

Duncan Hunter for Sec Def?

Duncan Hunter, Duncan Hunter? He just had a bill passed in the House.

“I think we can all agree that any state or locality must comply with the law—and they are required to coordinate and cooperate with the federal government. If an arrest is made, the federal government should be notified. The fact that San Francisco, LA and other cities disagree with the politics of federal enforcement doesn’t mean they should receive a pass to subvert the law.

“And if they do, there needs to be consequences—and the way we impose those consequences is by hitting them where it hurts. In the pocketbook.

“It’s simple. If you don’t comply with the law, as it stands now, then you don’t receive coveted federal money intended for enforcement. And that money, allocated for Fiscal Year 2015 alone, amounts to nearly $800 million in funding. For localities, that’s a sizeable amount of money with very specific purposes.

“It’s time we stand up to sanctuaries—and begin holding them accountable for their failure to uphold the law. And I look forward to taking the other necessary steps to confront sanctuary policies and jurisdictions.”

Marine Vet from a military family in California Sound like just the assshole for the job.

Cute ain't he?
At least it's not Rudy, the creep.

In 1986, President Ronald Reagan nominated Sessions to a federal judgeship. The Senate Judiciary Committee denied him the position after hearing testimony that sessions made racist remarks, including saying he thought the Ku Klux Klan was “okay until he learned that they smoked marijuana.”
