    If anyone is wondering the connection:

    This guy had internships at the Heritage Foundation and did some service as a special assistant in a DHS immigration office.

    Heritage foundation strikes again with installing young puppets.

      wonder what kind of internship, doesnt look like his major/degree is anything useful, certainly not a lawyer to be judge material for the foundation.

      As an administration, it’s a joke. As an exercise in evil, it’s right on track.

    it’s inspiring that in the states you can be a convicted felon, and/or just a totally unqualified moron with no experience in any sort of political office (see: POTUS) and get a high profile position in the federal government. america truly is the land of opportunity

      No, he’s a poly-sci graduate: moldable lump of clay setup by the Heritage Foundation to sink or swim. Seems like he hasn’t screwed up badly enough to be coat-hooked offstage just yet.

        The card would likely be older than him

        I can’t get over how a kid who did high school over zoom during COVID is now in charge of terror prevention for the US
