The same day Hitler rolled tanks into Poland, starting World War II, Franklin Roosevelt chose a rare man – George Marshall – to lead the army.

Fast forward, take a look at who’s leading our army today: Fox News host Pete Hegseth.

Trump also made Fox News guest host Tulsi Gabbard leader of National Intelligence, Fox Business news cohost Scott Bessent Treasury Secretary, the guest host of Steve Bannon’s War Room podcast, Kash Patel, head of the FBI, and the star of Unfiltered With Dan Bongino on Fox News deputy FBI director.

The head of World Wrestling Entertainment’s now leading the Education Department, and Trump picked a striking blonde, Pam Bondi, and long dark-haired Kristi Noem to be in his cabinet.

So, in a room filled with internet celebrities and TV stars, cabinet meetings these days are a lot like a Reality TV show.

Does that solve problems?
