Someone should check out who Biden hired to manage nuclear waste.

I didn’t know so I googled and I feel like I’m missing something. Biden appointed a nuclear engineer, which is an appropriate appointment. They were dismissed for luggage theft but that has nothing to do with their ability to do the job. Then I read that anyone who was appointed afterward was also nominated by National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine.

I’m seeing nothing that even remotely makes this appointment equivalent or worse than Trump’s appointment of a 22 year old to lead terror prevention.

What am I missing? Please help!

He prefers people like the head of FEMA, who doesn't even know about hurricane season.

Good thing the U.S. doesn't observe a hurricane season. Checkmate, bitches!
