  1. What’s so odd about this pick is the guy didn’t even run the Fox shows he was on. If someone was to be picked from Fox, they’d be better off picking a producer. They actually runs things.

    Picking this guy is like making a junior hostess at your restaurant the head chef because they liked the same entrees as you. This guy is basically the equivalent of a line cook who decided he’d rather become a host so he could flirt with girls at the bar and Trump is like, yeah, we should make him head chef.

  2. Always remember what Trump promised. “Dictator on Day One”!

  3. 1. This is terrifying.

    2. I really hope the leaks continue. These people are patriots and I think we will be relying on leaks like these as guard rails over the next four years.

  4. Well, when Trump is in the bag for Russia and only cares about Russia instead of America, what do you expect?

  5. You have to be a pretty big piece of shit to get turned in by your own unit.

  6. >was flagged as a possible “Insider Threat” by a fellow service member due to a tattoo on his bicep that’s associated with white supremacist groups.

    First I’m hearing that fellow service members reported him. Makes me wonder if he got it not for it’s generic racist appeal but as a member of an extremist group active within the National Guard.

  7. so what? All that matters is that FatBoi gets whatever he wants

  8. So when is anyone ever going to fucking act on this info and do their job to stop the rise of fascism? Anyone? He just gets to destroy America while we say ‘oh woops oh no i guess he can do that huh oh well’?

  9. Watching the fall of America has been a hoot. It’s going to suck but wow what a ride.

  10. He surrounds himself with only the best people. Fucking asshole

  11. Wasn’t Trump the one calling people the “enemy from within” right before the election? Man, I’m sick of the “every accusation is an admission” thing being proven correct over and over again

  12. We’re really just gonna keep digging until we find out there is no rock bottom. 

  13. I have been saying it since this pick was announced:

    Do you know how hard it is to get separated from the military for extremism? You have to be absolutely batshit to get flagged like this.

    He’s completely unfit.

  14. When your entire government relies on gentlemen agreements it was only a matter of time before things get compromised.

  15. Really though, aren’t all of Trump’s picks “insider threats”?

  16. The “possible threat” is having Christian tattoos. In the leftist mind, Christianity is a threat.

  17. LOL, the *”pretend to care”* troupe. Sit down, shut the Fuck up. You idiots literally **voted** for *Mr. Saves-the-economy*. Please don’t act all “surprised” now. Noone cares.

    America, what a fucking joke.

  18. Has Trump picked anyone for his government that isn’t a complete fuckwit?

  19. Sometimes, i wonder about the news of alien crafts hovering over nuclear silos all over the world, because they want to stop humans from destroying planet earth .

    Why can’t they stop madman Trump who is not only intent on destroying USA, but also very capable of destroying the planet as well.

    You alien fuckers got some explaining to do!

  20. You lost. Move on with your life. America will be great again, with real growth and lower inflation. Less homelessness would be nice, too.

  21. Whoever Trump picks is bad news for everyone. Trump is bad news for everyone. But I guess I won’t be around to say I told you so

  22. What does insider threat mean anymore now that Putin runs the show

  23. Turns out the enemy from within wasn’t democrats. Shocking no one.

  24. Americans voted a TRAITOR in as president, so why shouldn’t we expect a cabinet full of TRAITORS? Khrushchev said back in the 50’s that he’d take America down without firing a shot. BOHICA!

  25. So this means he will get Senate Republicans rubber stamp?

  26. 4d chess.

    1. Hire “insider threat”
    2. Go after the enemy from within.

    Like a stocked fishing pond!
