Summary
The Washington Post editorial board announced support for nearly all of Donald Trump’s Cabinet nominees, except four: Pete Hegseth, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, and Russell Vought.
The board justified its decisions by prioritizing minimal disqualifying factors over strong qualifications.
Some nominees, including Pam Bondi and Chris Wright, were approved despite controversies, such as ties to Trump’s 2020 election denial and climate change skepticism.
Critics argue the endorsements reflect loyalty over merit, raising concerns about the nominees’ qualifications and the paper’s objectivity under Jeff Bezos’s ownership.
Propaganda machine owned by a billionaire supports an incoming fascist regime? Aw man, too bad this has never happened before and we have no history to learn from about this.
