In what should be a surprise to no one,
Thanks Dave.

Just days after picking
Betsy DeVos to run the Department of Education, President-elect Donald Trump has
tapped another wealthy outsider by naming Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzmán to head the
Drug Enforcement Administration.
In an official
statement, Trump said that El Chapo’s “tremendous success in the private sector”
showed that he has what it takes to “shake things up” at the
D.E.A.

Dave also had this 'Letter to Editor' published at the NYT, which I will gladly share here.

Be careful what you wish for. For you may surely get it. Let's talk again in three or four years, OK?
In the mean time, I'd advise you to firmly buckle your seat belt and ensure that both your seat and tray table are in their fully upright and locked positions. The Captain is a delusional megalomaniac with no flight training, the First Officer is blinded by Biblical myopia and the flight crew are all incompetent sycophants with no relevant experience. Pray they don't inadvertently disarm the exit doors at 35,000 feet.
And this flight (barring Constitutional catastrophes) is scheduled to last four years. The menu in First Class will be filet mignon, lobster and champagne. Passengers in Coach will receive a daily 3 oz. package of peanuts. The inflight movie will be endless reruns of "Citizen Kane".
Happy Landings! (assuming Air Traffic Control hasn't by then been privatized and subsequently subcontracted to some distant Trump cousin who owns the vending machine concession for the Peabody Coal Company).
