State OIG' London embassy report nods to racist & sexist comments by Amb Woody Johnson, but largely downplays them, no details. OIG recommends a more thorough review by State & appropriate action. State & Johnson reject the recommendation, w/ @jmhansler https://t.co/0nqAgkzl3u

Holy fuck. “One Black female diplomat told colleagues that Mr. Johnson disparaged her efforts to schedule events for Black History Month, asking her whether he would have to address an audience that was ‘just a bunch of Black people.’“ https://t.co/Ahvcd0f73u

NEW: The White House is pushing Pentagon to hire a conspiracy theorist for a top job who among other things said impeachment witness Alex Vindman was "spy," that BLM was a Marxist agent of China, and that Obama, Comey, Brennan, and Clapper were communistshttps://t.co/FP1LFaAnZY

Over the weekend, President Trump once again skirted the approval of the nation’s elected lawmakers by naming Anthony Tata, a retired Army brigadier general, to a senior role at the Pentagon that did not require approval https://t.co/Vxxk9308pp

— TIME (@TIME) August 9, 2020

The White House pulled Tata's nomination to be DOD's undersecretary of defense for policy after it became clear he was unconfirmable
Then, the Pentagon installed him as "the official Performing the Duties of the Deputy Undersecretary of Defense for Policy" https://t.co/BmQrPLbFil

— Jeremy Diamond (@JDiamond1) August 2, 2020

Anthony Tata called Obama a "terrorist leader," suggested that John Brennan should prepare for execution or suck "on a pistol" and said Islam is the "most oppressive violent religion I know of."

The GOP wouldn't confirm him. So Trump bypassed Senate.https://t.co/TRH9pirJKX

In his conversation with Inhofe that Inhofe put on speakerphone, so others in the restaurant where Inhofe was eating could hear it, Trump indicated he may put him into a different position that doesn’t require confirmation https://t.co/xbaHDwNUPs

Trump still supports Anthony Tata, who has come under fire for Islamophobic tweets (including one calling Obama a “terrorist leader”). Lawmakers abruptly canceled his confirmation hearing yesterday amid “serious questions” about his fitness for the job. https://t.co/GiUEzHgGbH

Trump has (finally) named Wm Perry Pendley director of Bureau of Land Management even though Pendley doesn't believe in federal lands. He has pushed for more mining, oil exploration, grazing, recreation. Here's what I wrote earlier @StevenMufson https://t.co/NL7MpSUr7B

Trump just announced his intent to nominate William Perry Pendley to be Director of the Bureau of Land Management.

Why's that bad? Well, check out Pendley's own words full of:
❌Climate-denial
❌Anti-environmental stance
❌Horrible takes on diversity https://t.co/SyQdJK12ch

I paid for coffee & donuts out of my own pocket when I held official, in-office meetings as a US Attorney. My husband learned not to ask about $200 charges at Dunkin Donuts.

Pompeo is asking his former Republican Congressional staffers to defend him from allegations at his current place of work. And that defense even acknowledges that Pompeo may have at times asked former staffers to do what he’s accused of doing!
