EXCERPT:
MURPHY: "My understanding is that he is up for this post. Listen, he sounds particularly dangerous, the brazen chauvinism and racism. He also has been a very frequent apologist for the Chinese genocide of Uighurs. He says the United States should have no interest in protecting Taiwan, and we should, in fact, hand Taiwan to the Chinese. He has really radical views, but I don‘t know, they don‘t seem super different than Elon Musk, who has amplified vicious anti-Semitic information on Twitter, who gave the Heil Hitler salute on inauguration day. It seems to be standard that the qualification to serve in the Trump Administration is affection for racist and misogynist philosophy. So, this guy is dangerous, but there seems to be people like him being peppered throughout Trump‘s government."
