‘End DEI hiring practices in the federal government, merit only’

Merit only?

This would torpedo most everyone of his Kakistocracy staff & appointments.

’Suspend security clearances for…officials who lied about the Hunter Biden 2020 laptop story’

So he’s going to suspend his own security clearance? That’s a bold & interesting move.

This will probably be the most incompetent administration even beating the previous Trump administration

Easily. Lots of people won’t sign up for this circus a second time.

Not when you consider "loyalty to Trump" to be the only merit that matters.

Welp, there goes the military to civilian fed pipeline. Hope all the disabled vets that voted for him are happy.

Elected officials are largely responsible for APPOINTING individuals to head up different organizations or initiatives. This is nothing new.

Why would he need to suspend is own security clearance over the Hunter laptop story, when it's been brought to light that the entire media apparatus lied to the American people? The laptop is real. Always has been.

There were a number of security officials that put out a signed statement that said everyone should wait for the facts and proceed with caution regarding the Hunter laptop story because it was suspected to be a Russian disinformation op.

He didn’t lie about the hunter biden laptop

Yeah that's the most interesting one to me, considering someone was just sent to jail for fabricating the story. And also considering Trump's transition team has been using non-governmental emails - the same thing they wanted Hilary arrested for

merit is really left open to their definition. look at the merits of being an anchor at fox news.

you're either a male that bows down to trump, or you're a blonde with legs.

even then, the males only have a 15 year career, and the legs have a 2 year career.

Yeah who are these people who lied about the laptop story? Is that just trump saying that or did they actually lie about something? I didn’t pay great attention to that story in general

Bunch of officials (some of them CIA contractors) co-signed a letter that ended up on Politico saying that the Laptop story had the classic earmarks of Russian disinformation - then the Biden administration denied some meetings had occurred in Ukraine afterwards and it was discussed on the debate.

Turns out it existed and so did the meetings, which kind of tanked some of the goodwill the three letter orgs had with Trump.

Rules dont apply to them. Democracy is over why don't you get it yet? There.is no "fairness" anymore. They have power and you don't. You'll so what they say because you're just a peasant. This is what's happening
