A 23-Year-Old College Senior Has Been Tapped By The Trump Administration To Fill A Top White House Position

One of the Trump administration's biggest difficulties is finding serious people who are actually willing to be a part of it.

The Presidential Personnel Office (PPO) is the organization that handles "the selection process for presidential appointments and works to recruit candidates to serve the President in departments and agencies throughout the Executive Branch" according to the White House's website.


As their director of operations, Katja Bullock, resigns the White House needed to find someone to fill her role.

Who have they chosen?

A 23-year-old college senior.

Sources report that 23-year-old James Bacon of George Washington University will be filling the senior role within the White House. To be fair, he has previously worked at the Department of Transportation and acted as a White House liaison to the Department of Housing and Urban Development.

However, he was able to maintain those jobs while also working towards his bachelor's degree, something that may not be possible now that he's in charge of a executive department.

Bacon formerly campaigned for the President, taking some time off school.

Now, however, he'll be working under John McEntee, who was formerly fired by the administration after coming under investigation for "serious financial crimes," but who has now been rehired to take charge of a government department.

Twitter was understandably worried by the White House's unconventional hire.


It seems like there's probably a better person to fill this role.


But at least one person is standing up for James...

Congratulations to James Bacon for finding a nice job before he's even finished with college. Hopefully he's good at it or the entire country will suffer.

No pressure.

Gavin Newsom Hilariously Dunks On Trump For Hosting The Kennedy Center Honors

California Governor Gavin Newsom trolled President Donald Trump by sharing an AI-generated photo of himself accepting the inaugural—and not real—"Kennedy Center peace prize" from Trump.

The photo accompanied a post in which Newsom mocked not just Trump but also Ric Grenell, the Kennedy Center's president, whom Newsom referred to as a "janitor" in a post that—like many of Newsom's past posts—is written in a style not unlike the rants Trump publishes on Truth Social.

Matthew Lillard Shares Heartbreaking Reaction After Quentin Tarantino Criticizes His Acting

Actor Matthew Lillard has built a career out of playing the chaotic, the heartfelt, and the unexpectedly unforgettable, from Scream to The Descendants to She’s All That and even James Gunn’s early live-action Scooby-Doo movies.

And yet, none of it has managed to charm Quentin Tarantino, who recently announced that he does not care for Lillard’s acting. Or, apparently, for Lillard at all. During an appearance on The Bret Easton Ellis Podcast, Tarantino casually tossed Lillard onto a list of actors he thinks miss the mark.
