      lotta city miles on that one. ive met a few “inherited hundreds of millions at birth” leisure class types.

      he looks like the type to knock back 3+ alcoholic drinks every day, which accelerates what i would characterize as “aging”.

      can be a mid 30s, no job, vacation playboy but look like a 55 year old bus driver with 2 divorces and long crushed dreams.

      Seriously. I have friends who have really hard jobs and are that age, they’re even beginning to gray a bit. They look a decade younger than this man.

          Of course, my point was that people I know at that age with pretty hard lifestyles and jobs, and even sporting some gray hair, look like they’re children next to this guy.

      I know not everyone holds up as well as they get older but I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s a rabid alcoholic that’s aging him in dog years.

    Pulte comes into the role with effectively no direct experience in intelligence.

    “That is how intelligence becomes politicized, how inconvenient facts disappear, how agencies charged with protecting our democracy instead become tools to manipulate it"

    But Pulte has close ties to Trump and has been a reliable ally to the President, having publicly attacked and helped initiate probes into several of his political enemies.

    Previous directors have definitely done wiretapping/surveillance to help out their favored candidate, but this idiot will probably screw it up hard

    In a post on Truth Social on Tuesday announcing Pulte’s appointment, Trump pointed to what he characterized as his “deep experience managing the most sensitive matters in America, the safety and soundness of the Markets , and over 10 Trillion Dollars at Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac,” referencing two government-sponsored firms designed to support the U.S. mortgage market to which Pulte serves as chairman.

    Most unintentionally honest president in my lifetime

    If nothing else, this one comes across as a terminally online clown that buys the lies, maybe he’ll break some important things

    Amazing how they still manage to find even worse people to steer the ship of state.
