One thread that ties many of these people together is their deep connection with the fossil fuel industry — and their willingness to implement the industry’s agenda, regardless of the impacts on people and planet.
(MEE) — John Bolton is set to replace HR McMaster as Donald Trump’s national security advisor in a Lazarus-like resurrection for a man regarded as among the most hawkish of American politicians.

It takes much to make a figure like Rex Tillerson seem not merely sane but competent. The Trump administration, with its almost paranormal sense of revisionism and fantasy, has managed to make old Rex seem mildly credible. His sacking, inflicted with adolescent petulance, was bound to happen.
On March 14, The Duran published a post from from Liberty Blitzkrieg, taking a look at Trump’s disasterous appointment of Mike Pompeo as US Secretary of State.

(MEMO Op-ed) — The appointment of Mike Pompeo as the new US Secretary of State by Donald Trump will not signal a change in Washington’s Middle East policy.
