Good thing the former grocery store clerk is now protecting us from Iran sleeper cells
These are the same people who push DEI initiatives…. Now he’s a bad pick because he’s young, white, and had a normal job at one point in his life?
I know nothing about the guy but my lord what an arrogant pos you sound like.
He’s a bad pick because he graduated collage a year ago, and his only jobs in his entire life are being a floor sweeper at a grocery store and mowed lawns. Now he’s in charge of protecting us against terrorism.
You’ve possessed never a shred of integrity or honesty in your life.
In 1776:
-

George Washington: 44
-
John Adams: 40
-
Thomas Jefferson: 33
-
John Hancock: 39
-
Alexander Hamilton: 21
-
James Madison: 25
-
Aaron Burr: 20
-
James Monroe: 18
Sometimes age doesn’t matter if the man is exceptional.
I don’t know a thing about this man but some are saying he is exceptional at what he does. So until he proves us otherwise I will trust those that made the decision.
Exceptional at cleaning the floor at a grocery store and mowing lawns?
By 18, James Monroe had served as a LT in the Continental Army, participated in the surprise attack on Trenton, then commissioned as a captain and served as an aid to General William Alexander. Also, he did not join politics until years later becoming a US Senator, Minister to France, then Gov of Virginia, then Secretary of State and War and then the 5th President of the United States.
Your fella went from mowing laws to head of an agency protecting us from terrorist attacks.
Aaron Burr was admitted to Princeton at age 13 and became a scholar. At age 19, he joined the Continental Army as served in the invasion of Quebec. He didn’t get into politics until age 32, in 1788 when he was appointed NY State Attorney General.
At age 26 he was admitted to the bar. At age 28 he was elected to NY State Assembly. At age 33, he was US Senator.
You didn’t think any of this through, did you? Did you just list a bunch of names you knew from the past and pretend they were all in politics in 1776?
Thomas Fugate went to UT San Antonio where his only accomplishment was pretending for a Model UN Nations Club. His only jobs are cleaning the floor of a grocery store and mowing lawns. Have you ever worked at a grocery store? Do you know how much of a dunce one has to be to only be the floor cleaner? Not a stocker, not a checker, not even bagging groceries. This dude mopped the floor. Then, he went outside with his dad’s lawnmower and mowed some lawns in his neighborhood, something most 11 yr olds surpass by age 12.
By 22, I was a licensed pharmacy technician for 6 years, was the sole trainer for pharmacy techs for 19 retail stores, VP for a fraternity, and just got a job at a music production company, and I was a drunken idiot.
Thomas Fugate mopped the floor at a grocery store.
Again, you’re not a genuine person. You’ve never entered any of these discussion in good faith. The three most essential characteristics that define you are dishonesty, inability to take ownership, and zero morality in any form. Pathetic as usual
Then stop talking to him you whiny little cunt
You three’s obsession with GSC is some creepy shit.

Didn’t realize all the guy is doing is grant work. Considering this- completely not a big deal.

The Center for Prevention Programs and Partnerships (CP3) is a branch of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) that focuses on preventing targeted violence and terrorism
.
Here’s how CP3 combats terrorism:
- Public Health Approach: CP3 utilizes a public health-informed approach to prevent terrorism and targeted violence. This approach emphasizes building protective factors within individuals, families, and communities to reduce the risk of violence.
- Funding and Resources: CP3 administers the Targeted Violence and Terrorism Prevention (TVTP) Grant Program in partnership with FEMA. This program provides funding to state, local, tribal, and territorial governments, as well as nonprofit organizations and academic institutions, to develop and implement violence prevention programs. CP3 also curates and disseminates resources and best practices for terrorism prevention.
- Training and Partnerships: CP3 provides training and consultation to individuals and organizations involved in violence prevention, including law enforcement, educators, and community groups. They also build partnerships with a wide range of stakeholders to strengthen terrorism prevention efforts across all levels of government, the private sector, and local communities.
- Behavioral Threat Assessment: CP3 promotes the use of behavioral threat assessment and management (BTAM) techniques. These methods aim to identify individuals exhibiting behaviors associated with violence and connect them with appropriate support and resources to prevent them from progressing down a path toward violent action.
- Information Sharing: CP3 supports improved information sharing among law enforcement and other relevant partners nationwide to help prevent domestic terrorism and targeted violence.
Important Notes:
- CP3 emphasizes that their approach respects civil liberties and does not involve widespread data collection or law enforcement investigations.
- CP3 does not engage in censorship or encourage it.
- While CP3 primarily focuses on prevention, it supports law enforcement by providing training and resources to help them address individuals displaying concerning behaviors.
You took all the time to confirm the retard has only mowed lawns and worked at a grocery store.
False. Center for Prevention Programs and Partnerships includes grant work but is not only grant work.
It’s wild. When you’re not lying, you’re just wrong. It’s uncanny, actually.
It’s community activism lol.
