[TB] Let's talk Cabinet

Day 2,322, 16:20 • Published in USA USA

• by Tyler Bubblar

I'd like to thank Scolbert for helping me with the introduction of my cabinet. I tried to assemble a cast of proven character. There are some holdovers from last month, and there are some old faces in new places. I'm pleased to introduce what I believe will be the April Cabinet of the Executive branch.

Vice President: TellUrGrlThx
TUGT has done quite a few things in recent months, and he's done an admirable job in all of them. I'm pleased to have him as my running mate.

Chief of Staff: Disco Musolini

Disco is another solid citizen. He did excellent work in the DoD during a time of transition. I know he'll be great at running the cabinet. I wouldn't be opposed to seeing a Disco CP campaign in the near future.

SecState: WildOwl

Wild Owl. Foreign Affairs. Enough said.

NSC: Deepchill

EZC is the gold standard of MUs. Deepchill is a huge part of that success. He's done well in this spot, and I'm happy to have him returning in this role.

Secretary of Defense :DMJ

DMJ was an excellent SecDef last year. With the changes underway in the DoD I can think of few better to help ease USAF through this time.

Secretary of Education: Malarkey83

Malarkey is one of my favorite people. Going back to being a newb working under him on the Fed FBI I have always admired his work ethic, and solidity.

Interior: Molly Emma

Molly was an Interior mainstay for a very long time. After a decent hiatus I know she's ready to provide us with her same excellence that we've come to expect from her.

DHS: IndexInfinity

Index smoothed quite a few unexpected bumps last month. I've asked him to stay on in this role for one more month. I think he's earned a shot at broadening his horizons, but he's agreed to train a replacement before moving on to other things.

Ambassadorial Affairs: Sle7en

I had Sle7en pegged for this job last month. He's very experienced in the Ambassador program, and I'm excited to see him have a shot at running it.

Secretary of the Treasury: Kemal Ergenekon

Kemal and money are synonymous. He's almost universally respected, and will be invaluable in this position.

SecMe😛 Wookyjack
Wookyjack is a recent return to the game who's hit the ground running. He's been very impressive running the Fed Media Department, which was set up to mirror how the WHPR is run when Custer is in charge. SecMed is a tough gig but he will knock it out of the park.

April here we come!

SColbert Day 2,322, 16:28

Looking sexy!

Aeriadne Day 2,322, 16:29

Try to be less underwhelming next time.

Jefferson Locke Day 2,322, 17:47

He was probably tired from doing ATO stuff, as opposed to approving citizenships for people without them being approved by IES 😉

Hazelrah Day 2,322, 17:53

Shots fired! Pew Pew.

Aeriadne Day 2,322, 17:54

Ah yes, I forgot ATO took so much out of its workers that a CP hopeful can't even give his entire cabinet the proper written introduction each one of them deserves. My bad.

Jefferson Locke Day 2,322, 17:57

Still doesn't explain why you can't follow the very simple congressional rules of the nation you hope to be CP of. That seems worse than "underwhelming"

Aeriadne Day 2,322, 17:56

If you say so. I guess my being forthright about it in congress wasn't good enough for you. More's the pity.

Jefferson Locke Day 2,322, 18:04

So you make a petty comment, I make a comment about a serious infraction, and your counter is "I was forthright about it after people noticed". Well played. Still doesn't answer the question though I asked last time.

Pfeiffer. Day 2,322, 20:34

There is a candidate who has never approved a citizenship without prior approval, and who writes some of the best articles in the country.

nick.bergman Day 2,323, 08:15

And there is also a candidate who was granted citizenship without going through the proper IES procedures.

On a serious note, more background and explanation would be nice. I understand being short-spoken and direct, but even so this is a bit lacking.

Israel Stevens Day 2,322, 17:13

That would require more writing, and less picture posting.

Tyler Bubblar Day 2,322, 18:07

This is just getting lulzy.

greeling Day 2,322, 16:32

NEEDS MORE GREELING!!!

Hazelrah Day 2,322, 16:48

"I'd like to thank Scolbert for helping me with the introduction of my cabinet."

Wait, so you didn't even bother putting your cabinet's profile pics together yourself?

SColbert Day 2,322, 17:25

I didn't, but if you look at the top of the page you will see a picture of the man in my avatar. This man is named Stephen Colbert. The joke is that I led off the article, because the same man I take my name from, and is my avatar, is at the start of the article with a bunch of pictures of the logos of various government organizations.

Hope I could help you better understand the humor of it. If you find yourself not knowing things in the future, please feel free to ask me, as I would gladly help you.

Hazelrah Day 2,322, 17:50

Looks like I'm not the only one who didn't get the joke. Breakdowns in communication happening already.

SColbert Day 2,322, 17:58

Yes, from these comments I can see that not having a sense of humor has hit AMP particularly hard. I will gladly send you funny pictures from my reserves in order to aid this crisis of comedy. Hopefully then we can live in a world where ALL people can laugh once again.

SavageWatson Day 2,322, 17:10

Why does this article reek of "Not enough time to actually write a decent article" and "not enough time to even pull my cabinets images"... Why would you run if you dont even have time to put together an article that qualifies as "halff assed", this is at best, 10% assed.

Jessina Day 2,323, 00:20

It seems to me, and I could be wrong, but the majority of the players have been CPs, in congress or in the cabinets of other CPs. There should be a profile area in the meta forums so candidates can cut and paste every election.

wookyjack Day 2,322, 17:30

pew pew!

IndexInfinity Day 2,322, 17:40

Awesome stuff. Voted!

I want Tyler to go fast. Pass the butter please!

crashthompson. Day 2,322, 18:14

Wow, feels like some people don't like short and to the point articles.

Its funny, most of the people complaining I feel should know who these people are and need their background stories less than others.

The Original Fawkie Day 2,323, 09:26

Despite how much of an oldfag I am, I'm relatively unaware of people's accomplishments outside of my time in the Feds and even less so anything that has happened since I quit last August. There are at least two names in there I don't recognize, as well as one I have serious doubt over their ability to perform as any sort of department head, as per my experiences with them. I'd like to know a little more.
