...fair point. But he's not using official government jets to fly himself there and back...or I least hope he's not. >.<

Of course. My comment was more about the generic vibe, and the attention-seeking mentality of people who never lived up to their own perceived goals of being "cool enough" (even after gaining immense power).

That personality type these days represents about ⅔ of Trump's cabinet.

...also, I am not sure when Trump post anything that he's talking out of his own ass of that of Stephen Miller's.

Well, Karoline Leavitt did assure the press that anything that comes out of the Truth Social account is the president's own writing. Meaning, he's probably the only one with the password for it.

Except when it is convenient to blame a post on staffers.

If Leavitt says it is daytime, a prudent person would be well advised to step outside and check.

There is less than zero chance of that. Trump does not have the vocabulary to craft some of the posts on his Pravda Social. As in, they actually use real English words and a lot of those words have four or more syllables. Trump does not speak those words, he doesn't know such long and complicated words. Heck, just compare wis Pravda stuff to his Twitter posts circa 2016-2020 - it's night and day the difference in language. And it's not like he all of a sudden grew a brain capable of remembering words longer than 3 syllables.
When was the last time he posted about covfefe on Pravda?

Trump is already indicating tomorrow's ''State of the Union'' is gonna be a long speech... hopefully enough Dems boycott it and people just don't watch it.

I wouldn't take any claim at face value coming from this administration. It's nothing more than a wretched hive of scum and villainy...to paraphrase an ole Star Wars quote.

It's pretty clear Trump doesn't actually write his 'Truths'. Maybe dictates them...

Nazi Miller is likely writing them.

Is MAGA an American version of a cartel?

A cartel is a group of independent market participants who collaborate with each other and avoid competing with each other in order to improve their profits and dominate the market. They seek to limit competition, fix prices, and increase prices by creating artificial shortages through low production quotas, stockpiling, and marketing quotas. Jurisdictions frequently consider cartelization to be anti-competitive behavior, leading them to outlaw or curtail cartel practices

I know my American husband won't watch. He's basically written off his home country, refuses to cross the border, and is thinking about renouncing his citizenship (but that would cost more than CDN $3,500, so it's not a priority...)

Good news is at least 50 Democrats are boycotting

While the rest are pretending to ignore the speech from the mouthbreather, I decided to see how the preparations for the US war with Iran are going. And they are going swimmingly...

The second carrier strike group lead by USS Gerald R. Ford is a couple of days away from the theater, joining another carrier strike group lead by USS Abraham Lincoln that's been stationed there for a month now.

More and more stealth aircraft are being redeployed to the Middle East almost daily. Today was another routine aerial refueling operation over Newfoundland by two tankers, shepherding F-22s towards Europe.

Give USS Ford until the end of the week to check-in and unpack her bags, so to speak. The shooting won't start until then at the earliest. But it's looking pretty ominous for Iran at the moment.
