DEI, KJP, and FEMA


If someone is bad at their job, should they be allowed keep it because they are the embodiment of DEI?  And what if that job is being the voice of the current administration -- essentially explaining the decisions and intentions of the alleged "leader of the free world? Shouldn't the qualifications go beyond skin color, gender and sexual orientation?

Obviously I'm talking about KJP, whose  actual name is needlessly long so she goes by her initials. But whatever she calls herself, she's always been Raggedy Ann* to me, which to be honest is sort of insulting to the beloved doll of the same name.

As Biden's press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre has it all. She's black, a descriptor that is necessary these days to achieve any type of success in a Democrat-led government. And she's female, also important; after all, women are the ones who have abortions and that's quite a popular subject among Democrats. Add the cherry on top -- she's gay!  -- and you've hit the trifecta for 50% of a phony-baloney, superficial society where nothing below the surface matters a whit. (Hence Kamala Harris for President.)

In her televised press conferences, KJP has steadfastly delivered the lies of the administration to the media with well-practiced ease. Her most recent one had to do with the allocation of FEMA funds, wherein she abruptly stormed out of a press briefing after insisting there was nothing fishy about a huge chunk of government aid going to Lebanon while the victims of Hurricane Helene, thousands of whom suffer from a lack of food, water, housing and electricity, are slated to receive a piddling $750 each to "get them started on rebuilding." 

A day later the whole thing has been debunked as disinformation, i.e. it's Trump's fault, as is so much of the news in these trying, lying times. I certainly don't know the truth, and neither do you. Thank KJP for the confusion.

Raggedy Ann is a rag doll with red yarn for hair and a triangle nose. The character was created in 1915 as a doll, and introduced to the public in the 1918 book Raggedy Ann Stories.
