For the first time in 20 years, no House committees will be chaired by women.
“Very fitting in the MAGA Era—No Women Need Apply,” former Republican representative from Virginia Barbara Comstock posted on X.

I can hear it now……
“DEI is dead”
Well… that’s obvious.
…. Which makes Comstock’s comment equally obvious.
Welcome back to the Trump era in which we will again see photos of a room full of white congressmen pondering mightily on issues such as abortion.
When decision-making is restricted to only a slice of the stakeholders, the possibility of reaching a fair outcome is reduced.

Paternalism not just over black America, but women too.
BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Whereas on the Left, Great White Fathers get to say "I put you in there, black person". "Woman, you're there because of me".
Plenty of women do fine in Republican politics.
Trouble is, Sheeple has shit on all of them

Yup. No place for women in the Trump admin!
Except for all those key slots...soon to be filled with excellent Republican women.
BTW, call us when the democrats can define what a "woman" is.

I just counted at least 12 women. I am sure there are more but you get the point.

Trump's nominated a fair number of women for his cabinet. His proposed nominees include:
Kristi Noem - Homeland Security
Brooke Rollins - Agriculture
Lori Chavez-DeRemer - Labor
Pam Bondi - AG
Linda McMahon - Education
Other key picks that aren't department heads include Wiles as chief of staff, or course, but also:
Tulsi Gabbard - DNI
Elise Stefanik - UN Ambassador
Kelly Loeffler - SBA
Alina Habba - White House Counsel
Dr. Janette Nesheiwat - Surgeon General

I was commenting on Dope's criteria- excellent Republican women.
Suzie Wiles definitely qualifies. So does Lori Chavez-DeRemer. Both are qualified and experienced.
But beyond that? The list gets mighty murkey.

Surgeon General Janette nominee is another snakeoil seller right out of the (given enough hair and makeup styling) Fox-babe image machine.
Awesome that she killed her father with a handgun by accident. I hate it when that happens; don't you? Why is that?

She also sells a line of supplements and has a just-release book, out today. Pure coincidence, I'm sure.
Nesheiwat wrote a memoir Beyond the Stethoscope: Miracles in Medicine, which will be released on December 17, 2024.[22] She also created and sells her own brand of dietary supplements, called BC Boost.[23][24]

Legal/professional qualifications? Certainly.
But ethics and “will she do everything in her power to put Trump’s opponents in jail?
That’s where she fails. She’s a suck up, incapable of doing anything other than following Trump’s direction.
Trump finally has his Roy Cohn.

BTW, call us when the democrats can define what a "woman" is.
Not a democrat, but generally progressive.
Perhaps you can provide such a definition.
If you say, "Adult, female, human" you would be scientifically incorrect.
In general, since gender (man, woman, non binary) is a psychological/sociological trait, it is up to the individual to determine what their gender/role is.
OTOH, sex (male, female) is determined by DNA, hormone levels, and reproductive organs.

Adult human female. I'm quite sure there's some lib pseudoscience you could cite to the contrary, but it would be...lib pseudoscience.

While some might consider psychology to be "lib pseudoscience" in 2013 the DSM was updated to reflect the difference between the words "sex", and "gender". Prior to 2013 they were used interchangeably as you are doing. I understand many conservatives want to live in the past, and that is certainly your right. It just might make it difficult for people to understand you if you use the words incorrectly.
As a way of thinking about this, when we were kids it was fairly common to hear the phrase "be a man". The implication of course is that "man" is a behavior. You would not say "be a male". So while the technical definitions for sex and gender may have been formalized in 2013, the actual difference has been around for generations.
