Summary
The Trump administration appointed 22-year-old Thomas Fugate, one year out of college and with no apparent national security expertise, as interim head of DHS’s Center for Prevention Programs and Partnerships (CP3), raising alarm among experts.
CP3, once focused on preventing extremism and violence, has seen deep staff cuts and a shift in priorities toward immigration.
Fugate, a loyal Trump campaigner, replaces Army veteran Bill Braniff. Critics call his appointment symbolic of political cronyism and institutional erosion.
Amid rising extremist attacks, DHS proposes ending CP3’s $18M grant program, despite official claims prevention work continues.
I have one very simple question:
Who … are … his … parents?
Based on his LinkedIn, and what appeared in the story, I’m not sure what sets him apart from thousands of other wannabe MAGA assholes.
Which triggers my spideysense. Well that and the arrogant fucking faces he’s putting out into the interwebs like he’s Don Juan De La Nooch.
My guess is he’s probably a nepo-baby and his folks are either influential or made a ‘donation’ to get him appointed.
To quote Ocean’s Eleven:
“Never heard of him.” “That’s why I don’t doubt it.”
trump also says that when he throws people under the bus.
I wonder if any of these kids are getting paid enough, and smart enough, to be saving money to flee the US within a few years, if a mood swing makes things go bad for them.
My guess is it’s as much about them being too dumb to know any better as anything else. Would you take a job with real responsibilities under these clowns?
Truly depends on the level of arrogance, I think.
Or someone has some serious dirt on them.
How many of them aren’t trust fund kiddies? Their parents likely have the fuck you money to run, if not compounds and private security to hide behind.
Oh, I honestly forgot about that. Very true.
They’re probably even too dumb to realise they’re fascist
How much did his parents give to the trump campaign?

I invite you to look at his work history, the closest thing he has to national security experience is as a “cross functional team member” at a grocery store 2 years ago
No account, cant see. Care to screenshot it?
Gotchu
He has 15 total “experiences” (i.e. jobs/internships), all of which are either normal jobs a kid might have or interning in state government/working with trumps campaign for a couple months at a time, all of which you might expect of a kid who wants to get into law/politics. He started work 5 years ago mowing his neighbors’ lawns. Completely unremarkable. Education is a BA in “politics and law” from UT San Antonio and he did a summer “economics program” at George Mason.
Oh and his time working at the grocery store overlaps with his internships with politicians. So he either lied about the length of his employment, wasn’t doing full-time internships, or wasn’t working a significant number of part-time hours at the grocery store.
MVP
That’s more than trumps work history, which is none
I’ve been in infosec for 20 yrs, working with federal, DHS, intelligence, military etc… not a single common connection with this toddler.
How do you look 60 at 22?
Meth fueled hate.
Booze’n’hate
Also, lying on your resume.
constantly making smug facial poses that wrinkle your brow for no reason
I don’t get the fuss. American “terrorism” prevention is super easy:
Is someone white? -> Troubled upbringing, mental health issues, deserves a second chance
Is someone anything but white? -> Terrorist!!! lock him up for the rest of his life or torture him to death in Guantanamo Bay
Next week, Thomas gets kicked out of the role and replaced by AI.
The AI:
Clown country collapse continues.
Never forget, never forgive.
That’s a punchable face if I’ve ever seen one.
And you know there wasn’t a shortage of “looking smug” pictures to choose from
Hey, it’s me. Cool Nazi Thomas Fugate. I’m here to turn all vaginas in a fifty mile radius into the Sahara.
This little turd wasn’t even spunk in his dad’s nuts when 9/11 happened
Lol! That picture says all you need to know about this douchebag.
Like a mix of Jason Lee and Tommy Wiseau.
But has he ever worked at McDonald’s?
would legitimately make him more qualified than many of these imbeciles
Ha!
Probably with no work experience due to his extreme beliefs, making him unhirable for his degree
The Orange Turd gives any idiot the job.
