Chad Wolf

Is there some reason why every thread about him or mentioning him has been closed?

Who?

I’m not even halfway through Divider, Peter Baker & Susan Glasser’s magisterial account of the Trump presidency & they already have reported that he twice threw-up in response to White House immigration actions while he was deputy director of HHS.

R1 The former acting Secretary of Homeland Security.

He was Kristjen Neilsen's Chief of Staff. Neilsen hated Trump and when they had their major falling out Wolf was unexpectedly appointed as Acting Secretary.

From Peter Baker's book the Divider, Wolf threw up a few times and felt trapped in the Administration. He couldn't get out. He also wondered that if he did leave, who would have replaced him? A Trump sycophant.

R2 Wow our comments posted at the same time.

What do you think of Baker and Glasser's book? I thought it was well written and very fair.

He's hot. Does he have "an" OnlyFans?

Wasn't he on Party of Five?

R4, I’m only halfway through the Baker-Glasser book but, so far, it’s my favorite of all the books on the Trump presidency.

Is this the same Chad Wolf/Wolfe who appeared in "Sex Inferno" with Hank Hightower?

R7 I agree! I love Baker and Glasser books. Have you read the one on James Baker or the one on the Bush Administration? Highly recommend.

R9, I’ve read (most of) the Baker book. I have the Bush book, but I didn’t get too far. I’ll have to get back to it. I religiously read Peter Baker in the Times & Susan Glasser in the New Yorker. Their Stanford freshman son, Theo Baker, has already made a name for himself in journalism & looks to be following in his parents’ footsteps.

It was about two(?) years ago that DL started to automatically close threads that have had no activity (new posts) for a certain length of time. I think it's something like a year. Looking at some of the old threads about him, the last posts within them are well beyond that, 2020 for the most part.

Thanks, R11, although there are a couple more “recent” threads, each ending in Jan. 2021.

R10 The Bush book plays like a political thriller. IT has all the juicy drama of the first term and the "correction" of the second term.

by Anonymousreply 14August 21, 2023 11:52 PM

Thanks for the recommendation, R14. I'll get to their Bush book when I finish the Trump one.

by Anonymousreply 15August 22, 2023 12:13 AM

R15 Please! I am re-reading the Bush book now. We just got into Iraq and appointed Paul Bremer as the Transition Lead.

I forgot how much infighting was going on between Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rove and Wolfowitz vs. Powell, Card, O'Neill, and Rice
