Please, the man is a cringe lord. He's thriving on it.

My only quibble on this one is that he only attained the rank of Major in the Army. Otherwise he's a combat vet and was in charge of the VA at one point. Of all the appointees, this one will not be all THAT bad, although he probably will be.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Oh man, I've got tears in my eyes. Your comedy is really coming along.

Special counsel Jack Smith and his team to resign before Trump takes office
Smith's federal criminal cases against Trump were upended by the election, as the Justice Department's longstanding policy is that presidents can't be charged with crimes.

This one I understand, because as long as he wraps it up while Biden is still president, he gets to issue his report on the facts and the current DOJ won't Mueller Report it like Barr did.Special counsel Jack Smith and his team to resign before Trump takes office

People may think that calling every Republican a Nazi is exaggerating, but this one is a literal Nazi, with the tattoos to match it and everything.
I think liberals stopping when there are boots in the hall is way too early.
Do you guy not remember the guy that handed Trump 2016 getting fired for not breaking the law for Trump ? You really think anyone investigating him won't get fired right away, just like he promised if elected again ?
Wrapping up and producing a report that will be on file 4 years from now is the only option.
He was also one of the national guard members disqualified from defending the capital after Jan 6 because of his status as a white nationalist.

Other than the stance on the VA, which he's going to run into the ground, I don't see anything about nazi tattoos. He does have two bronze stars, though, which is more than you can say about most Trump appointees. But we all know Trump hates the military so this should be interesting. Project 2025 wants to cut veteran benefits. Two of the guys I work with get VA benefits from their service. And they both voted Trump. It's going to be hard to stay impartial. I like the guys but they are dumb as fuck.
He actually meant "White Nationalist" tattoos, if you really care to make a distinction between the two. But here ya go.
He's got a jerusalem cross on his chest, as well as "deus vult" on his arm, both are well known white nationalist symbols because they fucking love the crusades. If you want more history as to why these are white nationalist symbols, I don't really have the energy to educate, just google it, but as a shorthand I'll just say it's a pretty safe bet that anyone willing to work for Trump at this point is probably a very bad person.
9 white supremacist symbols that you should be aware of
In these polarised times, it’s more important than ever to be aware of the signs of such concerning ideologies, both in the UK, the US and the rest of the world. In recent weeks you may have seen the Z symbol on Russian tanks invading Ukraine. The meaning behind the symbol is still unclear but...

Dick Van Dyke Says He's Glad He "Won't Be Around" for Trump's Second Term
The 98-year-old actor went very dark, very quickly, when asked about a second Trump presidency.
This is, like, baby shoes-level embedded meaning/messaging to unpack.
