Casual Observation

If Sarah Palin got her wish and became the Secretary of Energy in a Trump administration, she’d be in charge of our nuclear weapons. And if she chose to use her appointment as she promises, to close down the Department of Energy, then she’d be the point-person for figuring out how to reorganize our government so that it can deal with our nuclear weapons in some new way.

That these things can be part of our national political discourse is proof the Gods are just mocking us and that the Sun will soon explode.
