In one of the most bizarre appointments of his presidency, Donald Trump has named 22-year-old Thomas C. Fugate III as the new head of the US Center for Prevention Programs and Partnerships (CP3), a division tasked with combatting domestic extremism.
Fugate, who only graduated from university in 2024 and was mowing lawns and working retail at H-E-B a year ago, is now in charge of shaping federal strategies to prevent radicalisation and domestic terror threats.
