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.
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.
