what do you mean some random podcaster with zero experience cant run one of the worlds largest law enforcement agencies?
whats next, a business man becoming president and trying to run the government like a business is also a terrible idea?!
/s
A fake TV businessman who made his money from daddy and money laundering for the Russian mob, who's also a pedophile rapist and 34-times convicted felon? Of course such a person couldn't do the job of POTUS. The very idea is absurd.
The head of the FBI, or any other Federal intelligence agency, should NEVER be an appointed position. Only qualified candidates should be hired to run these agencies. Politics needs to be reigned in so the trashing of the country can't occur. 249 years and this has never been fixed. What a bloody joke.
I get you, but I can also see it being both?
THEORY an appointed position but part of the confirmation is actually verifying their credentials
Isn't that was the senate approval is supposed to be?
What's the difference between appointing somebody and hiring somebody? Isn't it virtually the same thing?
The president chose who he wanted & it was rubber stamp approved. Having an individual work their way up in the Agency to finally be promoted to the head is different, and they don't change every 4 years. Whiskey Pete was a fox newz reader, un-qualified for this job.
No that wasn't my question. I understand the difference between a qualified and unqualified candidate. What am I asking is what's the difference between hiring and appointing? Who's doing the promoting? And how is that any different than being appointed?
Congress has to approve the appointed cabinet. The FBI promotes employees. The FBI has no choice in the person running their entire organization, they were never an employee there.
Yes. Well aware. But the question I asked? You said the head of the FBI should never be appointed and we should only hire qualified individuals. Then I asked what's the difference between an appointment and a hiring, also who does the hiring? Remember?
He doesn't just look like he's incapable, he really is!
Hey the look of terror is just his natural resting dumb face.
I don't know what you mean. The man exudes confidence and competence.
I can’t tell if that last one is an animated gif or not.
I swear he keeps moving
The eyes follow me 🧐
Just gotta keep watching.
OH SHIT! Oh. I thought it was gonna jump out at me.
“Come on Kash, let’s take a picture to show them you’re doing a great job!’” Leavitt wrote, attaching a photo of the pair smiling and giving a thumbs up.
The fact that they think a photo of them smiling shows they're doing a great job, tells you everything you need to know about their competence.
I thought his job was to use the FBI to harass political opponents, gather blackmail info for sale to donors, destroy evidence of regime corruption, sell out cooperating witnesses to criminal orgs, and fake evidence for clout. Also waste resources on unofficial activities on the side.
I mean, that's all in the wheelhouse of normal FBI operations under any administration, but it seems that this dude is especially bad at managing this regardless of their willingness to be tools or corruption.
The Dunning-Kruger administration.
If we're going to have Trump toadies anyways, I prefer the incompetent ones.
Point is, I'm a big fan of Kash Money.
US has never been this vulnerable to a terror attack. good luck.
Who needs to when it's eating itself from the inside?
"Never interrupt your enemy when they are making a mistake"
Someone should make a version of that Charlie Kirk site where you use a slider to change his head size.
But with Kash’s eyes.
😂
this has been known for a year
You mean that the wee little penguin-stance man with the face of a haunted doll and the personality of a Furby owned by a drunk middle schooler wasn't the best choice?
So, all going to plan, then.
I feel like I'm doing this to often but:
On the plus side, there’s never been a better time for Americans to start a career in organised crime.
Well apparently they put criminals in 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue these days so...
Um no, the ship is being ruddered just right by his totally-organic and authentic girlfriend.
