George Takei :verified: 🏳️‍🌈🖖🏽

They’re gonna move the goal posts a lot for the DUI hire.

@georgetakei Now-now! "Do as I say, not as I do. Pass me the Scotch." -P. Hegseth

@georgetakei People need to seriously stop making fun of alcoholics for their alcoholism.

It’s no different than calling Greg Abbott “hot wheels” because his a paraplegic.

@christopherbrown @georgetakei
Calling him a DUI hire is making fun of the person who hired him, not him, at best. Realistically it's not even making fun, it's a factual statement.

@cqd_sos @georgetakei Thank you for clearing up the best way to rationalize making fun of alcoholics. I really missed the mark.

@christopherbrown @georgetakei
Welcome. Besides, not every boozer is an "alcoholic", who can't help himself anymore and has to be treated like the victim of some disease. There's a whole spectrum of them.

@georgetakei What will happen is that they'll try to prosecute the reporter as a scapegoat and the rest will get away scot free.

@georgetakei There’s a Russian airport waiting for them. Snowden can teach them the ropes.

@georgetakei One of the fun parts is Trump saying: Yes they made a mistake, but it's the only mistake made by this government since its inauguration. While I seriously doubt that everybody will sign on the first part, I'd like to focus on the second, since this government is in office for two month, so do we have to we have to expect twenty three further clangers?

Unqualified, incompetence rewarded
Trump declassified the whole thing!

@georgetakei
Wasn't one of the participants in Russia at the time of the call(s)? Or is that fact not of concern?
