[Ricky Buria, Mr. Hegseth’s chief of staff] chastised the Army secretary [Daniel P. Driscoll] for selecting Maj. Gen. Antoinette R. Gant, a combat engineer who served in Iraq and Afghanistan, to take command of the Military District of Washington, said three current and former defense and administration officials familiar with the exchange. The command provides security and performs ceremonial duties in the nation’s capital, and its commander often appears alongside the president at Arlington National Cemetery.
Mr. Buria told Mr. Driscoll that President Trump would not want to stand next to a Black female officer at military events, the officials said.
You see this sort of discrimination going on all the time with GOPers these days. They confirmed Markwayne Mullin to be Secretary of DHS, a guy with no law enforcement, legal or military experience, whose main claim to fame is running his dad's plumbing business and getting a an associate's degree. But you know, don't you, that if a Democratic president had nominated AOC, who has two college degrees, for the job, the Right would be tripping over their dicks to denounce her as being unqualified.
And then there is Whiskey Pete, a Fox News personality who was chosen by Trump to be SecDef because Pretty boy Pete looks good on TV and is more than eager to give Trump's balls a tongue-job in public.
It's the old racism of white male privilege. Any white guy is presumptively qualified for whatever job he's in. Anyone who is a woman or non-white is presumed to be unqualified and a DEI hire, even if they are twice as smart and twice as capable. And Lord help us if they're transgendered, we simply cannot have that, can we?
Meanwhile, the World's Oldest Toddler is bored with his war and wants another toy to play with.

Isn't there something in their bible about a camel and a stalk of straw?
Or was a mule? A gelding, what back home we call a 'proud boy'?
Trump is bored with the killing in one country so wants to move onto killing in some in another one? He's like a spoiled toddler that just wants a different toy after throwing a tantrum to get the first one. He wants a new distraction at the same rate that he kept wanting to change thirteen-year-olds to molest.
He has less of an attention span than a fruit fly. At least they can concentrate on finding that nice overripe banana for a large portion of their life span.
