Summary

Russian state TV hosts are celebrating Donald Trump’s Cabinet picks, claiming they could “dismantle America.”

Figures like Vladimir Solovyov praised the nominees, including Kash Patel for FBI director and Tulsi Gabbard for intelligence, as a “radical dream team” likely to undermine U.S. institutions.

Critics in the U.S. warn that Trump’s selections, including conspiracy theorists and controversial figures like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Pete Hegseth, signal plans to weaken federal agencies.

    That’s fair man. My founder is on a green card. He has said his (asian) color brown isn’t the same problem as the folks to our south have, and he selfishly knows it’s better for him, so he’s keeping his nose down, not upstanding. I get it. He’s got a lot to lose. You gotta do you and get the oxygen mask on.

        Sorry, dude at work. Mentioned title to point out he’s running a company (and employing other people, and paying US wages in less industrialized places), so stakes are high in his life in general, exacerbating the challenges of processing one’s feelings about this all.
