Trump building "military complexes" In WA DC? With "Drones" and "Snipers" and "Bunkers"? WHY?? Because "someone" needs protection in DC from WHAT or WHOM? Just who does he think is going to attack DC?? (Note that drones and snipers are for attack not defense.)

Donald Trump is the living embodiment of the seven deadly sins: Pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath, and sloth.

Why are public, federal buildings and facilities construction, maintenance, and upkeep contracted out (with or without competitive bids) instead of detailing such works to the Army Corps of Engineers? This would be a summon sense way to control costs and promote better use of the taxpayers' money.

Trump's position is, and always has been: "I am going to do whatever I want - even right out in the open. You can complain all day, but there is nothing you can do about it, you can't stop me, and there is nothing you can do about it. Get on board or get out of the way."

I don't want to listen to or vote for a candidate who says "vote for me so I can go into office and do what I or my Party want/believes." I hope for that candidate who says, "vote for me so I can go into the office to wo what YOU want me to do."

I have no idea who this man is that wins a trophy for beating up another man. But I do know that such a man who would then attack a woman (obviously his intellectual superior) is simply a very weak man.

The disparagement of Michelle Obama at Trump's UFC party followed by silence and "no comment" from the trump regime and white House... There is no line of common decency and human respect that the Trump regime will not cross.

The Trump propaganda dept doesn't want the actual removal to be photo'd or videoed for public celebration. So the tarp will likely remain until the media cycles move on to when it might be nearly unnoticed. They don't want it sensational akin to the destruction of Nazi symbols and fascist statues.

I truly believe that IF the DOJ were to absolve itself from the influence of Trump and become truly "independent", not only Trump but a large3 portion of the Cabinet and Congress (and others) would become personally threatened by "the rule of law' and subject to adverse legal accountability.

RFK Jr set a policy of "let 'em die" with his anti-vax position. Hegseth has advanced that policy with his "KILL 'em all and let God sort 'em out". Trump has advanced that policy with the war in Iran and the DOJ's expansion of the death penalty.

So... Orban's political demise... Trump is going to react. He is going to feel this as a loss. He will be angry and vindictive This will bleed into whatever else he is doing and it will only escalate the damage. The man is truly unhinged and reacts irrationally.

Melania pre-scheduled a live segment on-camera, public, and on the record - and Trump says he knew nothing about it? We all know that is a bald faced lie! No way he would permit her to go public and on-camera without his full knowledge and pre-approval.

To Trump: The answer is "NO, you're wrong". I like to think that that shows me to be a better person than Vance, Miller, Bondi, Blanche,Patel, Hegseth, et. al. (And the same reply goes out to all of them.)

Trump and Hegseth are publically spewing propoganda about their war in Iran - THAT IS BEING REPETITIVLY PROVEN FALSE. They continuously violate the trust of the nation and the international community. That trust is burned - no one can prudently believe a word thay say.

At the grocery store today: A dozen eggs at $2.99; a loaf of generic brand (cheap) bread at $2.89. (used to get both for a total under $2.) Thankfully, my large bottle of top-shelf Canadian whisky is still under $20.

Mike Johnson is lying, full of BS, and spewing propaganda! ICE and CBP are already funded for years to do their jobs at and controlling the borders and illegal immigration. They do not need "more money" to continue t do their job and they continue to be paid during this "shutdown".

Trump now wants to issue an EO to fund TSA thru a slush fund ONLY BECAiUSE he doesn't want to let Congress (through Democratic influence) to do the same while they're denying his ICE private army additional monies. He wants to grab the credit for himself since he's having trouble getting the rest.

Trump continuously tosses around that he can "do whatever he wants" and no one can stop him. My mother, rest her soul, taught that, yes you can "do whatever you want" - BUT ONLY IF: "it does not hurt another person; it does not cost someone else money; and it does not damage another's property."

Trump got a major ego bump from using ICE inner-city. He felt 'Gee, this is fun." So, step over into "Commander in Chief" mode and use the US military - in Venezuela, the Iran - and it's "Wow! This fun and I'm so 'strong'. It's like a video game or reality TV" with no care of collateral damage.

Trump and Hegseth are playing "video game war games" with no REAL WORLD knowledge or experience in warfare. War aggressions, incursions, exercises, or shows of force are NOT real llife (and death). You don't slap someone in the face, then walk off and say "it's over now; I won."

A blue casual suit, a bright red tie, and a white baseball cap? A man who has no awareness of traditional public adequate, solemn human respect, and compassionate portrayal of appreciation. He only "showed up" because *someone* pointed out the political faux pas of not doing do.

Kamera Kristi has not been fired. She's had a lateral transfer to another "Special Envoy" position still on the federal payroll. Just Trump's little 3-card-monty to move her off-camera.
