    I have one very simple question:

    Who … are … his … parents?

    Based on his LinkedIn, and what appeared in the story, I’m not sure what sets him apart from thousands of other wannabe MAGA assholes.

    Which triggers my spideysense. Well that and the arrogant fucking faces he’s putting out into the interwebs like he’s Don Juan De La Nooch.

    My guess is he’s probably a nepo-baby and his folks are either influential or made a ‘donation’ to get him appointed.

    To quote Ocean’s Eleven:

    “Never heard of him.” “That’s why I don’t doubt it.”

      He interned at the Heritage Foundation.

      I wouldn’t rule out “favors” being exchanged.

        100%

        Now if this guy was some kind of prodigy, that would explain the face. But the stories I’ve seen paint him as your typical dipshit, 20-something MAGAt.

        Minus that, there’s a level of entitlement oozing from his face that screams “I think I’m somebody important because my dad/uncle/mom/lover thinks I am.”
