Exactly as intended by the administration. All governmental bodies will be made subservient to the great leader through installing purposely incompetent and bad faith loyalists and sycophants. This should not be a surprise at this point, it should fill us all with righteous anger.
Pretty much exactly this. You stick useless people in these important roles so they can't get enough traction to try for your chair, but you also want people who are at least smart enough to do whatever you tell them to do. Patel is actually a smart pick, he's just too dumb to know how to push around actual field agents and only knows how to push around analysts and media.
No offense to the Guthrie family but it was pretty clear that local LE and the FBI don't give a shit when it was weeks later that they asked people to send outdoor camera vids and even more clear when the local delivery driver was their only suspect after that.
really makes you think how valuable teh surveillance state can actually be making a case against Luigi Mangione when it can't find a an old lady whose family is cooperating
I think most of that lot doesn't know who that even is, and if you tried to explain then the tribalism kicks in and they'll defend child rape, ICE, tariffs, the president shitting his pants live on TV, anything and everything.
If you just mean informed Republicans...couldn't tell you lol I don't live there. Do those exist outside of grifter sociopaths and the owner class?
Gee, it's almost as if rich snobs are looking down at us the poor and pious from their fancy-shmancy mansions and laughing at us while we're on the streets begging for food and money. The solution to this problem is seize the means of production and redistribute all that wealth to the poor. Seriously!
Back home they used to call him the bitch with the boner sized tits but now that he's head of the FBI he gets to call himself cash money. One day he'll go back to his old name and everyone will know him for the little wanker he is.
Fast forward 5 years to when he’s featured as “very serious person” on the Sunday morning news junket, and Eric Trump is the new Lord High Imperial Police Director.
At this point we would be lucky to have somebody like president Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho who actually seems to govern in good faith.
What would the current government do if presented with a super-intelligent advisor? Fix our problems? Lol to that. They would be lucky to be kept alive because somebody that smart is clearly a threat to those who already got theirs.
What a joke that guy is. He's like a rich nerd who gets to party with the cool kids while displaying the over-the-top eagerness that marks their kind. We need a serious guy who takes things seriously not a frat boy mentality power guy.
I was at my parents house where it was being discussed nonstop on the news, then during a commercial break they showed a picture of a brown 9yo kid who has been missing since November of last year for five seconds.
When the news came back, they were talking about the missing 84yo woman and I made the decision to not pay attention and block it from my news feed
Skinner's glare of disdain would have flayed the flesh from his bones. It would have been a Monster of the Week episode. Mulder would actually help with the coverup and chalk it up to a one time involuntary psychic event. Scully would have cocked her head, pursed her lips, squinted, and said, "hmph."
Everyone with experience in these cases agrees the woman is dead, it was a home invasion gone wrong. I think the authorities know this. I assume the ransom and ensuing press coverage is just a huge distraction from other things going on, because it makes LE look good. They certainly don't give a shit when a brown person goes missing, but a famous white lady's mom, yeah that's gripping news POTUS needs to be involved with
Which of the Epstein files indicate a criminal offense requiring an arrest? I've seen so many of Epstein emails with comments like "WE NEED TO ARREST EVERYONE!" attached to a photo of Epstein with his goddaughter on his lap.
Like... Epstein was already arrested... and it does not appear he trafficked minors to anyone. Am I missing a key email somewhere?
