The Biden administration has been forced to cut their losses after one of their woke appointments turned out to be a kleptomaniac with a fetish for luggage.
Sam Brinton, 35, has been ousted from his position at the Department of Energy after having served just 11 months in the post in response to the ongoing controversy surrounding a pair of luggage thefts perpetrated by Brinton in Las Vegas and Minneapolis.
Brinton has been charged with felony grand larceny charges in Las Vegas, while also facing felony theft charges for the theft perpetrated at Minneapolis-St. Paul Airport. The value of the items in the Minneapolis theft in particular topped $2,300.
Brinton’s initial appointment was met with skepticism. In February of 2022, a Department of Energy employee filed allegations of hiring malpractice with the Office of the Inspector General over concerns about how qualified Brinton actually was to be placed in a Senior Executive Service level position, which is "the class of federal career officials who rank just below top presidential appointees in seniority".
The Department of Energy previously tried to obfuscate any concerns of Brinton’s qualifications by playing the “You’re a bigot if you don’t accept this person in this position” card. Sadly, that card is no longer available, and it doesn’t cancel out felony theft charges.
Seizing upon the opportunity afforded by the charges against Brinton and the controversy surrounding his continued employment at the Department of Energy, House Republicans called for Brinton's removal by Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm, who herself is a special breed of bonehead, as this other article I wrote about her can attest.
"We demand the resignation of Sam Brinton, and we implore you to set aside petty politics and appoint only the most qualified and dedicated individuals to influence America's energy sectory," stated Clyde and his colleagues in the letter to Granholm.
Qualified and dedicated come second to filling woke checkboxes for the Biden administration, and the constant example of this is Biden's press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, who is about as honest and articulate as a Scotsman after a night out drinking. But I digress.
I believe we’re seeing a natural course correction taking place, as people who are placed in positions they don’t deserve simply for ticking the right boxes on a marginalized individual questionnaire are going to be outed eventually, with or without controversies hastening the process, as is the case with Brinton.
And for those who will be annoyed that I didn’t capitulate to the pronoun mob over how to address Brinton — I don’t care and I don’t apologize, it’s not illegal where I live yet. Refer all your complaints to intelligiblenoise@gmail.com or DM me on Twitter. I welcome your hate.
