DeVos’s claim that children are ‘stoppers’ of covid-19

https://www.washingtonpost.com/polit...pers-covid-19/

Needless to say, Four Pinocchios. Of all the utterly unqualified nincompoops in this administration, Betsy Boop definitely has to be in the bottom 5.

DeVos aide played role in helping failing for-profit colleges, texts and emails show

https://www.washingtonpost.com/educa...-argosy-devos/

For the past year, the Education Department has denied that a top official went out of her way to help Dream Center Education Holdings, owner of the Art Institutes, South University and Argosy University, as the company spiraled into insolvency.

But a batch of text messages, emails and letters shed new light on Dream Center’s relationship with Diane Auer Jones, the head of higher education policy at the department, and her efforts to help the company regain accreditation at two of its schools.

The Trump administration had a keen interest in staving off the collapse of the troubled chain of for-profit colleges, even though congressional investigators found that Dream Center deceptively enrolled students at campuses that had lost accreditation and raked in taxpayer money in the process. The closure would have given more students a clear path to have hundreds of millions of dollars in federal loans forgiven. It also would have embarrassed an administration that has rolled back for-profit education regulations and filled the department with proponents.

Betsy Boop is quite a piece of work. Perfect for this thoroughly corrupt administration.

Orange Shitstain's New Adviser Steve Cortes Thinks He Hasn’t Been ‘Fascist’ Enough
THANK YOU SIR MAY WE HAVE ANOTHER
The conservative pundit turned campaign operative believes BLM is a George Soros front and that Trump should have been tougher at Lafayette Square.

https://www.thedailybeast.com/trumps...fascist-enough

“If Trump were the fascist that they pretend that he is, wouldn’t he have cracked down much, much harder on the unrest in the American streets?” Cortes said on The Steve Cortes Show on June 25, less than three weeks after the incident at Lafayette Square. “To be quite honest, you know, when there were people being bloodied, cops being attacked, businesses being smashed, I could have used a tad bit more of a fascist Trump.”

Sigh. Our resident Trumpkin nazis must really love this guy...

I caught the tail end of the interview of that and honestly thought I was seeing a preview for SNL. Looking forward to the upcoming "clarification". Stay tuned.

Mark Meadows isn’t saving Trump. He’s sabotaging the country.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opini...aging-country/

Previous Trump chiefs of staff Reince Priebus, John Kelly and (to a lesser extent) Mick Mulvaney tried to temper the president’s wildest instincts. Under Meadows, Trump seems to have no guardrails: tear-gassing peaceful demonstrators for a photo op, embracing Confederate generals and flag, proposing delaying the election and sabotaging the post office’s ability to handle mail-in ballots, disparaging the late John Lewis while voicing sympathy for accused sex criminal Ghislaine Maxwell, hiring a senior campaign adviser who argued that he’d like to see Trump be “a tad bit more of a fascist” (as the Daily Beast’s Scott Bixby reported), appointing a conspiracy theorist to a top Pentagon position after the Senate declined to confirm him, and promising a health-care plan that never materializes.

Orange Shitstain's top economic adviser seems to be confused about new executive orders in cringeworthy interview

Kudlow is definitely not the sharpest tool but a tool nonetheless. It's like Trump and his dessicated libertarian teabagger cockups have picked the worst possible candidates for the job.

Less than 90 days to go...I hope we make it without the Orange shitstained son of an orangutan nuking Portland, Seattle or California.

Just another grifter, this one in charge of ensuring mail-in ballots from Blue areas are lost in the mail.

Top DHS officials Wolf and Cuccinelli are not legally eligible to serve in their current roles, GAO finds
The watchdog agency found that both officials sidestepped Senate confirmation in a way that is not permitted.

None of Orange Shitstain's stooges is qualified. These ones are also legally ineligible.
