Summary
Donald Trump appointed 22-year-old Thomas Fugate to lead the DHS Center for Prevention Programs and Partnerships (CP3), which combats terrorism and hate violence.
Fugate, who graduated in 2024, previously worked as a grocery store clerk and self-employed landscaper.
He joined Trump’s 2024 campaign and briefly served as a special assistant in DHS immigration.
Despite lacking direct experience in counterterrorism, DHS officials cited his work ethic in justifying his rapid promotion. His political rise includes internships with the Heritage Foundation and Texas lawmakers, and an active pro-Trump social media presence.
You can tell he practiced that look in front of the mirror.
In Spanish Fugate literally means imperatively “escape”. So the whole name means…Tom, escape! Run away man!
And what should I call you, Mister?
Fugato, Thomas Fugato. Stirred, but mostly shaken.
And how much will it be?
One million dollars!
honestly, better than another fucking billionaire.
“includes internships with the Heritage Foundation” there is it, fucking hell
Dang, I had put my money on rich daddy donor. (edit: that could still be right…)
I mentioned this in some other threads, but this guy has to have influential/wealthy parents or an uncle or a sugar daddy or something.
It would be one thing if he was some kind of GOP genius (an oxymoron, I know). But the articles make it sound like he’s just a guy.
Which tingles my spideysense into thinking he must be a nepobaby.
That … and his fucking face. Seriously. What a punchable, arrogant face.
How the hell are we ever supposed to take this country seriously again?
Oh, that’s all over now.
6 hrs later… being the change
Despite lacking direct experience in counterterrorism, DHS officials cited his work ethic in justifying his rapid promotion.
Does hours played in CS:GO count?
Please that’s a feeder if I ever seen one
I’m gonna need to see his dad’s resume.
I see that the article is misinformed:
Donald Trump appointed 22-year-old Thomas Fugate as the new fall guy at the DHS Center for Prevention Programs and Partnerships (CP3), which combats terrorism and hate violence.
Fugate, who graduated in 2024, previously worked as a grocery store clerk and self-employed landscaper.
Mr. Trump said in press briefing that Mr. Fugate has the perfect combination of inexperience, stupidity and trust in the GOP, to be manipulated in taking the fall when the current administration’s policies will be shown to have failed: “He is exactly the kind of young person this administration needs.”
What we were hoping for:
what we got:
I think the real questions were asked by another poster in another thread, who are his parents and how much did they pay to get him this ride?
He is trumps bastard.
“Work ethic” Okay, who’d this guy have to fuck for this?
Considering his age there’s a good chance that in the not too distant past it was actually him on the other end.
I don’t think he has the power to extort anyone for sex (yet), I think he’s the exploited one.
Yes. That was the joke. If I wasn’t clear about that. That kind will tolerate and embrace abuse, so long as they see themselves dishing out the abuse in the future. Those that embrace hazing Etc. And when you run with pedophiles, rapists, and sexual abusers. They do favor particular types of abuse.
