I'm introducing a series called Lunatics in Charge today. In it I'll explore examples of MAGA leadership in the Trump regime. Sit back, buckle up, have a stiff drink or a hit off a bong, and prepare to be entertained.
It's no secret that Trump exclusively gathered crazy loyalists to fill out the ranks of his authoritarian government in his second term. Unlike the first, there are no guard rails this time.
Today we're going to look at one of these crazy loyalists. Meet Gregg Phillips. He leads FEMA's Office of Response and Recovery.
Someday your life may be in his grubby hands. He's a far-right conspiracy theorist who claims he's teleported multiple times, including once to a Waffle House 50 miles away.
Even Trump raised an eyebrow at that claim telling reporters that, "It sounds a little strange." That comment is coming from the lunatic in charge of our country whose minions searched high and low throughout America to gather loyal nutcases.
In a normal world the response to Phillip's teleportation claims would be one of concern. Instead, our felon in charge wanted to know what teleportation meant. "Was he kidding?" he asked the reporter.
In a moment of rare honesty Trump said, "I don't know nothing about teleporting...it sounds a little strange, but I'll find out about it right now," he reassured the curious reporter.
The takeaway? Trump doesn't mind strange. He's never heard of teleporting (and could care less), and the chance he questions Phillips about anything is next to none. He was vetted by the former Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi "I kill puppies" Noem. That's all the creds Phillips needs with this regime.
Phillips bizarre claims and background peddling election conspiracy theories made him the perfect candidate to handle a climate crisis in the MAGA hierarchy.
The clincher for hiring Phillips was when he threatened former president Joe Biden, saying, "I would like to punch that bastard in the mouth right now. He's a nasty shitty human being, and he deserves to die. And I hope he does."
Rumor is Trump has the audio of Phillip's threats and likes to play it sometime because it turns him on. He added the inspirational attack to his collection of favorite sound bites that excite and empower him.
It's bad enough that we have a president who thinks he's Jesus without having a lunatic who doubles down on his religious blasphemy in a Truth Social post.
"God will not be mocked. People can debate me. Question me. Even ridicule what they don't understand...I know what I've experienced. I know Who I serve," he recently lashed out at his online critics.
As it Stands, it's no laughing matter that we have a batshit crazy individual who may, or may not, heed climate crises when they arrive...depending on what God tells him to do.
