  • The Republican takeaway from the New Orleans attack is that Donald Trump's cabinet nominees need to be confirmed quickly. There's reason to believe otherwise.

The article from MSNBC's Maddow Blog discusses the stark contrast between a recent violent attack in New Orleans, where a man named Jason Jamar Shackleford allegedly attacked a woman with a machete, and the incoming Trump administration's cabinet choices. The piece highlights how Trump's selections, such as Jeff Landry for Attorney General, who has been criticized for his handling of hate crimes, and others with controversial backgrounds or views on race and justice, seem disconnected from addressing the kind of violence seen in New Orleans. It points out the administration's apparent lack of focus on civil rights, hate crimes, and community safety, especially at a time when such issues are increasingly relevant. The article suggests that these appointments might not only fail to address but could potentially exacerbate the underlying issues leading to such violent incidents.
