Trump's Proposed Cabinet and Cronyism.

Trump wants Matt Gaetz to be Attorney General. So, Donald Trump is going about to get MAGA extremists and scandal ridden people to be part of his cabinet. Gaetz has denied being involved in sexual abuse of minors. Also, Matt Gaetz opposed Trump being impeached twice by the U.S. Congress. Gaetz proposed legislation in 2017 to abolish the EPA or the Environmental Protection Agency. He wanted legislation to handle climate change by regulating greenhouse gases. He supported no legitimate gun control regulations. Former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson accused Gaetz of harassing her multiple times in her memoir. Gaetz has denied those allegations. We must be clear to advocate for democracy, and Donald Trump wants a radical authoritarian system to rule America.

 Matt Gaetz resigned from the House before the ethics report can be released. Gaetz could have been recommended by the report for his removal from the House. Gaetz has been accused of having relations with minors which he has denied. Trump wanting to be an Attorney General is wild. The Department of Justice members are shocked and concerned that Gaetz is being considered. Trump could use Matt Gaetz to go after his political opponents. Trump wants to call a recess possibly and push through appointments. Trump has picked a lawyer for a top DOJ role who argued in court that Trump could order an assassination of political rivals. I don't just blame Trump voters to allow extremists and haters to be in the Trump administration. I also blame those who were neutral and refuse to take a side in this important part of our history. This is never a time to be neutral on the eve of anniversaries of various conflicts.

Trump picked Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to be his Department of Health and Human Services Secretary. Robert Kennedy Jr. is the opposite of what his father stood for. His father stood up against corporate power, but Robert Kennedy Jr. allies with the corporate power funding Trump. Robert Kennedy Sr. opposed bigotry and injustice, but Robert Kennedy Jr. supports the bigot Donald Trump. Robert Kennedy Sr. agreed with healthy vaccines for humanity like JFK, but Robert Kennedy Jr. has massive skepticism against mainstream vaccines that has saved millions of lives for decades. Trump wants Tulsi Gabbard to be in his administration too. Gabbard allied with Modi who is accused of making Islamophobia remarks. Modi is a far right prime minister of India who used to be banned from America for his role in the Gujarat massacres. This isn't about Hinduism as most Hindus are not fascists. This is about extremists. Gabbard was one of 47 House Democrats who voted to stop refugees from Syria and Iraq from entering America. Yet, she claims to be anti-war. Gabbard was pictured with the far right Netanyahu/Trump apologist Shumley Boteach and top GOP donor Miriam Adelson. These neo-cons support Gabbard. She is a closet neo-con.

FOX News propagandist Pete Hegseth is called by Trump to be the Defense Secretary. Pete Hegseth refuses to support women in combat roles when Harriet Tubman fought in the American Civil War in the Combahee raid in South Carolina. Hegseth wanted to minimize the evil acts of Putin. Putin is a murderous dictator who represses the rights of his own people in Russia. Hegseth claims to be a Christian but curses like a sailor, wants to bash the DEI movement, and wants Ukraine to possibly lose their own lands to Russia. Putin is a dictator who invaded nations, involved in oppressing his own people, and involved in election meddling and misinformation for years. There is no excuse for anyone to be an apologist for Vladimir Putin. Now, Trump talks about a New Golden Age and a new world order. The establishment is in league with Trump as multibillionaires have funded his campaign and his movement for years.

Quincy Jones was a person who was a genius. He was of our generation's Duke Ellington. He was that influential and genius. Over the course of over 70 years, he has been a record producer, composer, arranger, conducter, trumpeter, and bandleader. Quincy Jones loves to show music among many genres from classical music, rock, R&B, hip hop, jazz, and soul. Quincy Jones earned 28 Grammy Awards, a Primetime Emmy Aard, and a Tony Ward. He was born in the Midwest in Chicago, Illinois. Working with Count Basie and Frank Sinatra was in the start of his career. I knew his scores that he did for the films of In The Heat of the Night in 1967, The Color Purple in 1985, and The Wiz in 1978. Jazz and blues are purely American musical genres. There is no rock, no R&B, no hip hop, etc. without jazz and the blues. Quincy Jones was a Master of Jazz as a jazz musician. He earned the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award in 1995. Jones was the producer three of the greatest albums of Michael Jackson being Off the Wall in 1979, Thriller in 1982, and Bad in 1987. He even produced and conducted the charity song We Are the World in 1985. He loved his seven children and the rest of his family. He had many friends like Richard Pryor, Marvin Gaye, Sarah Vaughan, and Sidney Poitier. He gave voice to tons of people who love musical expression. Music have inspired souls for millennia, and Quincy Jones has changed the world to promote excellence and a keen power of expression. 

Rest in Power Brother Quincy Jones.
