Summary
The Trump administration appointed 22-year-old Thomas Fugate, one year out of college and with no apparent national security expertise, as interim head of DHS’s Center for Prevention Programs and Partnerships (CP3), raising alarm among experts.
CP3, once focused on preventing extremism and violence, has seen deep staff cuts and a shift in priorities toward immigration.
Fugate, a loyal Trump campaigner, replaces Army veteran Bill Braniff. Critics call his appointment symbolic of political cronyism and institutional erosion.
Amid rising extremist attacks, DHS proposes ending CP3’s $18M grant program, despite official claims prevention work continues.
I wonder if any of these kids are getting paid enough, and smart enough, to be saving money to flee the US within a few years, if a mood swing makes things go bad for them.
My guess is it’s as much about them being too dumb to know any better as anything else. Would you take a job with real responsibilities under these clowns?
Truly depends on the level of arrogance, I think.
Or someone has some serious dirt on them.
How many of them aren’t trust fund kiddies? Their parents likely have the fuck you money to run, if not compounds and private security to hide behind.
Oh, I honestly forgot about that. Very true.
They’re probably even too dumb to realise they’re fascist
“If”?
