invaders to run wild.That is pretty much
the history of this land ever since Columbus
sailed in 1492.

From the moment Donald J. Trump came down the Trump Tower escalator in 2015, he’s been anything but a conventional politician.
He’s consistently told Americans the unvarnished truth about everything from anti-worker “free trade” deals to our broken immigration system, from endless wars abroad to our two-tiered justice system.
Instead of caring about “conventional wisdom” or political orthodoxy, he’s been committed to doing what’s best for the American people.
And that’s exactly why everyday Americans, fed up with our country’s rudderless leadership, resoundingly re-elected President Trump.
Democrats and the media are naturally apoplectic about President Trump extending his unique way of running our country to his Cabinet and other agency nominations.
Just as they said about President Trump himself, his personnel picks have been attacked for lacking “traditional” experience or having “unconventional” views.
What these criticisms miss is that it was precisely because of those unconventional views and his unique resumé that Americans voted overwhelmingly to re-elect him.
They voted for a president and an administration focused on cutting through the noise and ignoring arbitrary credentials to deliver real results.
If that’s surprising to you, do a little reflection on what the last four years of “the adults” running things has entailed.
So many of Joe Biden’s nominees and staffers appeared very qualified on paper in the traditional sense of how Washington has operated — and most of these people have been, at best, incompetent or, at worst, outright destructive to our country’s stability and prosperity.

As I said yesterday, the left (and their adoring media) are not used to the people paying attention once the election is done. This time they are and they are letting their voices be heard.
Unconventional......why because the men all wear a suit and tie instead of a dress?
Why would Trump select the next leader out of the line of pigs waiting for their turn at the trough? Of course, he is selecting “unconventional” leaders.
Absolutely great! Disconnect from the establishment cabal as much as possible.
Our laws are screwy.
Team Biden can only do the things they do because the laws Congress has written arguably allow Team Biden and the 30 million invaders to run wild.
They seem to be to me a rather sound lot.
Personally, I don’t believe RFK Jr. should have been given all of HHS, just FDA or the NIH.
Hegseth is going to come under fire for the hotel episode and payoff.
There could always be Defense Monday Dinners at the White House, most first and third Mondays of a month, with President Trump and Pete Hegseth, select admirals, generals and Congresscritters invited.
“Hope he finds one for NOAA, from Joe Bastardi...”
I would select Tex Antwons Weather Dog before I selected a democrat selected acolyte from the leftwing trough.
Well said!
There is a big difference between having "unconventional views", and lacking any relevant experience. The former can be good if you're looking to make major changes. The latter, less so.
Most of us would agree that Tom Homan is probably the perfect pick as immigration czar, yet it's impossible to have picked anyone with more experience. Elon Musk has tons of management experience, and has been interacting with government for decades - perfect pick for DOGE. In both cases, it's their experience that makes it far more likely they can execute the correct policies.
But count me skeptical when it comes to people with no significant management/leadership experience being put into positions where they are expected to manage and lead major change in huge organizations.
Also a bit skeptical of Kristi Noem in Homeland Security, but at least she knows how to manage/lead a large organization so maybe she can learn the security stuff.
I’m afraid the letter after the name means bugger all anymore.
Nominees must be MAGA.
As long as they are, I don’t care about color, sex, party, religion et al.
I agree. I think a stronger medical background is probably needed for NIH, but FDA really could have used a shake-up.
Trump is tapping NON-CORRUPT leaders...
Actual leaders are unconventional. Conventional means incompetent.
