Y'all have a new VA Secretary.

Every indication is that Dr. David Shulkin is a decent pick. He was confirmed 100-0 and was previously the Under Secretary of Health, appointed by Obama. The only major downside is that he's not a veteran.

Yeah, his non-veteran status is less important than his competency at running big government clusterfuck organizations. At least he's had experience, maybe he'll be useful.

If he'd have Betsy DeVos'd us, there'd already be bodies in the street.

I am linking this article just so I can quote this one passage because it's loving amazing. They actually really care about SNL. https://www.washingtonpost.com/poli...m=.db8bda3dcea2

quote:

Staffers buzz privately about who is up and who is down, with many eagerly gossiping about which poor colleague gets an unflattering portrayal on NBC’s “Saturday Night Live.” For the past two weeks, it has been White House press secretary Sean Spicer. But aides said Trump was especially upset by a sketch that cast White House chief strategist Stephen K. Bannon as the Grim Reaper manipulating the president — who was ultimately relegated to a miniature desk, playing dolefully with an expandable toy.

Man, it would kinda own if trump made Flynn the scapegoat and crucified him.

It fits his personality of "You're fired!" too. I think its eventually going to happen, just not sure whom yet.
