This guy is now on the job.

Quote:The inexperienced 22-year-old reportedly tasked by donald trump with tackling U.S. extremism was working as a neighborhood gardener just five years ago and in a grocery store as recently as August 2023, the Daily Beast can reveal.

Thomas Fugate, who graduated from the University of Texas at San Antonio just 12 months ago, is currently heading up the Center for Prevention Programs and Partnerships at the DHS, as first reported by ProPublica Tuesday.

The center, also known as CP3, plays a vital role supporting nationwide efforts to combat terrorism and hate-fueled violence.

But according to the youngster’s LinkedIn page, Fugate has almost no experience in this field—and in 2020 was working as a self-employed ‘Landscape Business Owner.’

There isn’t much else on his resumé to suggest Fugate has the requisite skills to weed out terrorists. Prior to his work as a gardener—while studying for a degree in politics and law—Fugate worked at an H-E-B supermarket in Austin, Texas, as a ‘Cross Functional Team Member.’

And this country was founded by a group of individuals who were, in some cases, barely 18 years old.

Grasping at straws must be fun for you.

Curious, do you have post notifications from me on speed dial?

Tom is not a smart man.

More qualified then anyone in the Biden* Administration.

Must we list (again) all the morons and freaks in the Biden administration?

If he had purple hair, went by they/them pronouns, and was appointed by a Dem you'd be lauding this appointment as showing how your party doesn't discriminate and celebrates diversity.

I know you don't understand it Tom, but you really are a complete moron.

I wish him well.

doesn't misgendering herhim offend himher?...

This thread is sickening. One might consider what day it is BEFORE you attack someone’s age.

Do you know how many young men lost their lives 81 years ago today? The average age of those who died 26.

It’s no wonder young men with balls and brains are leaving the Democratic Party in droves. On D Day of all days leftist idiots decide to attack young men.

Good luck ever getting young men to vote Democrat again…

Sure, feel free to blame the demise of the democrat party...specifically the exodus of young men...at my feet due to a post on an anonymous internet message board a few days after trump appoints an unqualified sycophantic kid barely out of diapers to an important role in our terrorism apparatus. And shamelessly use the sacrifice of true heroes in the process to achieve that.

Spare us. In the threads about terrorism, you are not to be found...unless it's possibly tied to a straight/white person. To pretend like you care about this topic is laughable.

And tell us more about the great Biden staffers like Bootygig, Rick/Rachel Levine, KJP, and on and on.

Fugate took over from Army veteran Bill Braniff, who resigned in March after the trump administration cut 20 percent of his staff. Braniff has more than 20 years’ experience in national security.

I could have sworn that Kristi Noem was head of DHS.

And for giggles I did an internet search on this guy and the only outlets reporting this are the no name hack sites that only liberal idiots would read.

Not even CNN or MSNBC have reported this.

Only idiot Tom would post crap like this.

61% of those killed in Vietnam were under the age of 20. I'm also surprised to hear that men that are in their early twenties are "barely out of diapers". You just have to laugh at the stupidity.

As the son of a US Navy veteran at the tail end of the VietNam era, I'll co-sign on my dad's behalf. He served from '72-76 and was a mineman. (He was smart as hell, too.)
