Just a note that Noem and Bondi weren't fired for their evil actions.

@petergleick I feel like it was less "not evil enough" and more just "convenient scapegoats" but the fact definitely remains that the administration isn't firing them for being evil and absolutely replaces them with more evil.

@petergleick

How'd that blind loyalty work out for them? Oh, yeah, just like all the rest. "She was terrible, and I never knew her."

@petergleick

Perhaps they both sucked at sucking up.

@petergleick
I think they were fired because they are women, evil or not. They were both quickly replaced with men.

I suspect Tulsi Gabbard to be fired within two weeks.

@petergleick At least markwayne’s departure from the Senate makes the Senate’s average IQ go up a bit.

@petergleick
Guess I'm not alone in that thought.

@petergleick @avirr They were probably fired for a variety of terrible and invalid reasons that even Donny can’t articulate reliably. I think the essential problem with Donny is a mental illness so broad and so deep that conventional public discourse cannot even begin to address it.

@integerpoet @petergleick + greed, hubris, and a complete lack of empathy

[integerpoet@sfba.social]

@avirr @petergleick Those are definitely more useful words than “evil”. But I think his problems are worse than that. I think he occupied a private universe long before dementia set in.

[avirr@sfba.social]

@integerpoet So really, it’s his enablers we should blame. Twice.

[integerpoet@sfba.social]

@avirr I’m down with that. Their insanity should not stop the new Nuremberg Trials.
