I am writing to express grave concerns over President Trump's cabinet nominees. Many of them are alarmingly unqualified and pose serious threats to our democracy, national security, and public welfare. Individuals like Matt Gaetz, Tulsi Gabbard, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and Mehmet Oz lack relevant experience and hold dangerously fringe views that could undermine key institutions. Gaetz is facing credible allegations of sex crimes and obstruction of justice, making him unfit to lead the Justice Department which previously investigated him. Gabbard traffics in conspiracy theories and is seen as an ally of Russia, disqualifying her from overseeing intelligence agencies. Kennedy is a prominent anti-vaxxer with no scientific background who spreads misinformation that endangers public health. Oz promoted quack treatments and has no experience running healthcare agencies. Confirming such unqualified and extremist nominees would severely compromise the federal government's ability to properly serve the American people. Their lack of expertise, ethical lapses, and potential conflicts of interest pose an unacceptable risk. I urge you to reject these and other dangerous nominees who fail to meet basic standards of competence and integrity essential for their prospective roles. Safeguarding our nation requires carefully vetting cabinet officials to uphold the public trust.
