    Trump Administration Shocks Senior F.B.I. Ranks by Moving to Replace Them

    excerpt:

    "A handful of senior F.B.I. employees have been told to resign in a matter of days or be fired, as the Trump administration moves to shake up the agency’s upper ranks, according to people familiar with the discussions.

    The steps came as Kash Patel, the president’s nominee to lead the agency, sought to assure lawmakers during a contentious, hourslong Senate confirmation hearing that he would not begin a campaign of retribution or look backward by pursuing perceived rivals. It is unclear whether he was informed of the decisions, which were disclosed on the condition of anonymity to describe personnel matters."

    Trump launched air controller diversity program that he now decries
    At news conference, Trump read a list of disabilities he calls disqualifying, but his administration started such hiring in 2019
    January 30, 2025 at 5:46 p.m. EST

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/01/30/faa-dei-trump-fact-checker/

    excerpts:

    Moreover, the FAA under Trump in 2019 launched a program to hire controllers using the very criteria he decried at his news conference.

    “FAA Provides Aviation Careers to People with Disabilities,” the agency announced on April 11, 2019. The pilot program, the announcement said, would “identify specific opportunities for people with targeted disabilities, empower them and facilitate their entry into a more diverse and inclusive workforce.”


    "Trump claimed that he had changed Obama’s criteria for hiring air traffic controllers with greater diversity — when in fact he left it unchanged. Moreover, he decried the fact that FAA hired controllers with a range of disabilities that he listed at the news conference. But that program was launched during his first term."

    By adding boom-boom and the zipper sounds to her 'speaking in tongues' rant, Paula Jones could make a rap recording and sell it. She's about prosperity gospel.

    Trump has selected Paul White to head his White House faith office.

    That's not as dangerous as if he had put her in charge of air traffic control.


    Trump makes an outrageous choice for his White House Faith Office

    If Trump actually controls Kennedy Center, expect stage shows featuring the Village People and Trump dancing with them on stage.

    Trump said he had to take over Kennedy Center because he doesn't like drag shows. Yet he danced on stage with the VIllage People at his 2024 pre-inaugural ball, which didn't look too different than a drag show.

    Thinking that Americans will understand concepts such as tariffs and national budget deficits isn't realistic when 7% of the population thinks chocolate milk comes from brown cows.


    https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...brown-cows-and-thats-not-even-the-scary-part/

    excerpt:

    "Seven percent of all American adults believe that chocolate milk comes from brown cows, according to a nationally representative online survey commissioned by the Innovation Center of U.S. Dairy."

    excerpt:

    "But in some populations, confusion about basic food facts can skew pretty high. When one team of researchers interviewed fourth-, fifth- and sixth-graders at an urban California school, they found that more than half of them didn’t know pickles were cucumbers, or that onions and lettuce were plants. Four in 10 didn’t know that hamburgers came from cows. And 3 in 10 didn’t know that cheese is made from milk."

    Committing crimes and engaging in an insurrection didn't hurt Trump reelection chance as much as expected, particularly with young people.

    Article from February 2024.


    Gen Z loves Donald Trump more than any other age group

    excerpt:

    "Donald Trump has a higher approval rating among young adults than any other age demographic, according to a poll.

    A Harvard CAPS–Harris survey of more than 2,000 registered voters showed that 57 percent approved of the job the Republican did as president, with 41 percent saying they disapproved.

    When the results are broken down further, they show that almost two-thirds (64 percent) of voters in Generation Z—or those aged 18 to 24—approved of Trump's job as president. The age range of this demographic means some respondents were children during Trump's time in office, 2017 to 2021."

    Article from February 2024.


    Gen Z loves Donald Trump more than any other age group

    excerpt:

    "The former president is enjoying leads in the polls over Biden despite a majority of registered voters (56 percent) believing Trump has committed a crime. The poll shows that 54 percent of voters believe the criminal investigations against Trump are politically motivated, a claim the former president has frequently promoted.

    Trump has pleaded not guilty to 91 felony charges. His first trial, where he stands accused of falsifying business records, is set to begin in New York in March.

    The poll also found that more than half (54 percent) of voters believe that Trump engaged in insurrection against the U.S. government while he was in office. Trump has pleaded not guilty to four federal charges in relation to the events that led up to the January 6 attack and his alleged criminal attempt to overturn the 2020 election results."

    CBS is considering settling Trump's $20 billion lawsuit against it in order to avoid his wrath during an upcoming multi-billion dollar merger that he could sabotage.

    Trump is upset at what he claims was unfair editing by CBS of its interview with Kamala Harris.


    Paramount in Settlement Talks With Trump Over ‘60 Minutes’ Lawsuit

    excerpt:

    "Now Mr. Trump is back in the White House, and many executives at CBS’s parent company, Paramount, believe that settling the lawsuit would increase the odds that the Trump administration does not block or delay their planned multibillion-dollar merger with another company, according to several people with knowledge of the matter."
