Who is this and why is he a director of the Center for Prevention Programs and Partnerships. (CP3)



"[CP3] strengthens our country's abilities to prevent terrorism, and targeted violence"

"What we do
CP3 establishes and strengthens terrorism efforts across every level of government, law enforcement, public safety, the private sector, and in local communities by funding, training, and providing technical assistance to the American public, police officers, teachers, institutes of higher education, non-profits, and countless other segments of our American society. We convene terrorism and targeted violence prevention providers, curate research and best practices on terrorism and targeted violence prevention, and aid states and communities in building strategies and programs to prevent terrorism, and targeted violence, in the Homeland."

OP saw a viral tweet from a lefty and brought it here as if it were something he happened to uncover during his oh so legitimate investigation into all things Trump.

If only we had time to bring up all the purple or blue haired trolls that graduated from places like Garden City C.C. That Biden nominated during his administration. Unfortunately TexAgs has only so much bandwidth

So you don't care that a 22 yr old is in charge of an anti terrorism organization within DHS? Whose resume is gardener and a bag boy for HEB? Pretty sure if this happened under Biden, Obama you would be saying something different. And yes we can go down the line of ridiculous appointments Biden and Obama have had. That does not absolve Trump from his "stellar" appointments.

A) So it appears I was correct regarding your sourcing
B) I don't care because I'm smart enough to know that this guy isn't in charge of jack squat. This is a purely political appointment and resume' padder for this kid as a reward for his hard work and moreso for what I'm sure we'll find out is some sort of financial contribution to the campaign.
If you think this guy is actually pulling any levers and calling shots related to our anti-terrorism efforts then you probably shouldn't be engaged in any serious attempts at political discussion.
This is the left grasping at straws (yet again) and you taking the bait.

Can you tell us that he is not doing his job correctly?

Can you even tell us what his job entails?

'So you don't care that a 22 year old is in charge....'

DEFINITELY 'curious', and am certain POTUS will address it when asked about him.
But.....

My primary source was San Antonio express (he did go to UTSA) followed by local Austin news station. They be be left wing all you want but that doesn't dismiss the fact trump put a 22yr old in charge.

You say he was rewarded for hard work and To pad his resume more. I thought the goal of removing waste in gov (DOGE) was to remove useless positions and eliminate people that don't do anything. But now that's ok? Is it not wasteful to appoint an intern to the director of a departments that you say he won't have any decision making.

I'm not a dem and I think he was a useless tool before he *****d himself out to dem leadership and obviously when he was for that brief brief stint.

Same could be said about mayor Pete being transport head, Biden DEI press secretary hire, and many many more cronies that dems have. That doesn't mean trump gets a pass to hire his own incompetent and/or cronies hires for positions in government. We want to remove government waste not continue it.

Dude, they put a 22 year old in charge of the entire Democrat party not long ago.
Trump will fix it.

Cry harder. You voted for a Demetia rattled old man for president. You don't have the moral high ground.

Ah, so now your concern is DOGE. Got it.

I was so certain given the obvious deep dive you've taken into the matter that your anxiety here was the anti terrorism bona fides of this kid. Color me shocked.

He oversees what I quoted from CP3s site. If this department or the position is useless then having him and the department is just more waste and has no reason for existing. So assuming it is important and essential then he must be making important terrorism prevention decisions as a director (again if he has no power then why are we continuing govt waste) and therefore begs the question how can a 22 yr old fresh out of college with no background in anti terrorism efforts be in anyway qualified for such an important decision maker?

You were the one that said he makes no decisions. Why have him them? To pad his resume?

Typical. assume my criticism is one sided (it is not… see 2008-2016 and 2020-2024) and therefore I must be or have voted for a dem. Because I didn't. Want to view my voting record too. You can look in some batt archives for my thoughts on Obama as well.
