Nominee Dr Janette Nesheiwat knocked over gun in 1990, causing it to fire and fatally shoot father in the head
Okay but why is that important? We all know Trump is bad but this is just weak.
They’re a Trump nominee, so they’re probably shitty for one reason or another, but this just seems completely irrelevant.
“I was in Father’s bedroom at about 7.15am getting some scissors” out of a fishing tackle box on a shelf above her dad’s bed, she said, according to a police report reviewed by the New York Times. “I opened the … box and the whole thing tipped over”, causing a handgun to fall from inside, discharge and strike her father in the head as he slept in the bed.
If that’s what happened, Father was a dumbass, storing a non-drop-safe firearm with a round in the chamber.
that sounds like the most made-up alibi ever pronounced
Who’s actually going to sleep under a tackle box?
That’s concerning. I’m not sure it’s scandalous enough to qualify her.
Yeah unless this was on purpose I don’t see how we can justify calling her a republican candidate for a seat of power.
The puppy killer wasn’t good enough, we need someone with the balls to take out a parent!
Honestly, that seems like it may make her more inclined to push for reasonable restrictions on firearms, if anything.
I know nothing about her yet, but if I accidentally knocked over a gun and killed one of my parents, I might be a little bit pro-regulation, lol.
Not a bad trait for a Surgeon General if so.
Seems like an odd thing to write a headline about, but also, the gun aside, what kind of a maniac keeps a fishing tackle box on a shelf above their bed?!
This seems pretty low key to most the picks… I mean I don’t know if she has any skills for the job, but this back story is a lot less worry some that most the picks.
I don’t know if she has any skills for the job,
I’m pretty sure the minimum requirements for trump cabinet is that you have absolutely zero qualifications for the job and it’s highly preferred if you have publicly shown contempt for the job/agency it heads
They should have checked her hands for powder burns.
She probably raped someone at some point.
