Editor, The Beacon:
Welcome to the Trump Circus, Act II. The new Cabinet is a menagerie of clowns, fools and avaricious sows.
Introducing Pete Hegseth, our new secretary of defense; an active alcoholic and spouse abuser whose qualification to lead our nation’s defense is having been a Fox News pundit. But being a Trump loyalist, he will duly surrender Ukraine to Putin’s Russia.
Tulsi Gabbard, our new director of national intelligence, has the FSB (former KGB) in the Kremlin clinking their vodka glasses in celebration. Having such a Russian asset at the highest level of our government is reminiscent of the Kim Philby affair in Britain.
Then there is Robert Kennedy Jr., an anti-vaxxer whose claim to fame is dumping a dead bear in Central Park and chain-sawing the head off a beached whale to take home as a souvenir. With no medical experience, but overflowing with voodoo conspiracy ideas, Kennedy is now our secretary of health and human services.
Matt Goetz, Trump’s nominee for attorney general, was ready to roll regardless of being a drug and sexual abuser. But apparently even Trump draws the line at pedophilia, choosing a loyal bimbo, Pam Bondi, in his place. Her qualification is being Trump’s personal attorney, pushing the false narrative of a stolen election.
Our new education secretary is Linda McMahon, billionaire professional-wrestling mogul. Having bought her position with a $20 million campaign donation to Trump, with no experience in education, her task is to replace public education with private schools.
Kristi Noem, former South Dakota governor, is our new homeland security chief. Following Trump’s orders, she intends to eliminate FEMA. They don’t have many hurricanes in South Dakota, but it would behoove her to first learn what FEMA does.
All told, Trump has assembled 13 billionaires in his new Cabinet, their only qualifications being their loyal personal and financial support. You can already hear these sows munching in the public trough to further their own financial interests.
To complete this collection of miscreants, we have boy wonder Elon Musk, eager to buy his way into political power and willing to tolerate Trump’s daily brain flatulence. Having donated $250 million to his campaign, he has given Trump a blank check to primary any potential Republican opponents. In return, he gets to hoover up all our personal federal data.
Our new Secretary of State Marco Rubio is tasked with purchasing Greenland, making Canada our 51st state, taking back the Panama Canal, and grabbing Gaza as a U.S. territory. Marco will need a big broom and a very large wagon to clean up the dung after this parade passes us by.
This cast of characters reads like a bad science-fiction script. Making America Great Again with this group can only happen with divine intervention.

Pretty much captured the reality of this administration. Well said
I’m so tired of hearing about how wonderful the past four years were. Here’s a tiny summary of Biden’s dream team.
Sam Brinton: Biden’s choice for American’s Nuke Engineer, arrested (and fired) for stealing woman’s suitcases of clothing from Airports, and wearing their clothes. Pete Buttigieg, Sec. of Transportation, who spent the first two months of his term on Paternity leave with his husband, and never built a single road or bridge, and left our flight controllers nationwide in dire straights. Admiral Rachael Levine, HHS, who declared it a “Summer of Pride”. Merrick Garland, AG, who swore the southern border was secure while 13 million illegals, including MS13 killers crossed over freely. Antony Blinken, Sec. of State lied to Congress numerous times, without any repercussion. Lloyd Austin, Sec. of Defense, who went into the hospital, and neglected to mention to anyone, including the President, he would be out of circulation, and not reachable for weeks. Tom Vilsack, Sec. of Ag., Have you spoken to a farmer lately? So many acres have been sold off to China and/or be used for wind turbines that were never built. Leaving Americans to be dependent of importing food from other countries. Miguel Cardona, Sec. of Education. Our kids are testing at 60%. Some students are being passed through the system without being about to read, or write. Alejandro Mayorkas, Sec. of Homeland Security. Lied over and over that our borders were secure. Did you know there were almost 300,000 missing children that came across the border unaccompanied? They were just released into unknown peoples homes. And there are illegals in every single state, a large number of them were released from prisons and insane assumes. FEMA took the money we, in Florida were supposed to get for the last hurricane, and gave it to a NY luxury hotel to house illegals. Try changing the channel some time on the TV, Get a different glance at what is really going on in the world and the USA. Socialism has NEVER worked in the history of the world, It wasn’t going to work this time. The majority of people saw through what was happening and voted for change. Let’s see how much you complain when the gas prices drop, along with the interest rates, and cost of living. And don’t give the line that it hasn’t so far. It’s only been ONE MONTH. So get real, It’ll take the first year to rectify all the hatred and devastation caused by the last four years. And BTW: Elon Musk has found we may be paying upwards of 25 million people over the age of 110 years old social security. Any wonder why the S.S. system might be failing?
