Trump's Second Term

As of the close of the day on February 26, my positive/negative score on the Trump administration stands at -190.

26 February 2025
-1: Trump claims the EU was formed "in order to screw the United States." [56]
-1: RFK Jr's FDA cancels vaccine meeting intended to prepare for coming winter’s flu season (Washington Post) [57]
-1: Executive Order: Implementing the President’s “Department of Government Efficiency” Cost Efficiency Initiative
The second item should be worth -190 all by itself. It could potentially lead to 1000's of unnecessary deaths.
 
and that's what my wife said was going to make her want to leave the country

Yes. the audio clip isn't there in the whole recording, that was claimed for it but that doesn't mean it's not from another recording.

I posted a note further up the thread when it was noted.
 
Donald on Canada and Wayne Gretzky

Donald J. Trump
@realDonald Trump
Wayne Gretzky is a fantastic guy! They call him, "The Great One," and he is. He could run for any political office in Canada, and win. Wayne is my friend, and he wants to make me happy, and is therefore somewhat "low key" about Canada remaining a separate Country, rather than becoming a cherished and beautiful 51st State, paying much Lower Taxes, a Free and Powerful Military, NO TARIFFS, and having a Booming Economy. Wayne and Janet, his wonderful wife, love Canada, and they should only support Canada, and whatever else makes the Canadian People, and Governor Justin Trudeau, happy. He's the Greatest Canadian of them all, and I am therefore making him a "free agent," because I don't want anyone in Canada to say anything bad about him. He supports Canada the way it is, as he should, even though it's not nearly as good as it could be as part of the Greatest and Most Powerful Country in the World, the Good Ole' U.S.A.!

Perhaps. There's still a chance the meeting will happen at some point in the future, but it needs to be soon so the vaccine manufacturers can get direction on what to produce over the spring and summer.

I'm trying not to speculate when it comes to items I put on the list. If the fall vaccine program is a bust and influenza deaths spike in the States over the upcoming winter, then I would be able to put a number of some sort on the fallout. But we won't know that information for at least 12 - 14 months, possibly longer. We have to wait for the excess death counts to be analyzed.

how does he sundown this early?
Please use the quote function. I have no idea what you're trying to say here. In a fast moving thread what you're responding to may be several posts back by the time you read a post and reply to it.
 
GBNews presenter Beverley Turner has hailed Donald Trump's AI Gaza video as 'brilliant' as it 'will wind up all the right people'.
If nothing else, the video has likely locked in the bearded belly dancer demographic!

Pete Hegseth announces FULL Investigation into botched Afghanistan withdrawal:

"We're doing a complete review of every single aspect of what happened with the botched withdrawal of Afghanistan and plan to have full accountability."
 
MedPageToday reported, "Proposed legislation, should it make its way through Congress, would dismantle the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) as it currently exists, replacing it with three separate research institutes....However, in a statement issued along with an announcement of the proposed legislation, he [Representative Chip Roy, the sponsor of the bill] said, "From the earliest days of the pandemic, public health bureaucrats proved themselves far more adept at ruining lives than saving them."
It is...ironic... that Rep. Roy would mention the pandemic. Two of the experts quoted in the article indicated that pandemic preparedness would likely suffer under this proposal. Dr. Fauci was head of NIAID for many years.

Just add it to the long list of witch hunts. They'll soon be running investigations into the New Deal and calling for FDR's body to be dug up and strung up.

Replacing one organization with three? Now that's how to reduce bureaucracy!
 
The proposed legislation concerning NIAID would also make the President, not the head of HHS if I understand correctly, the person who appoints the head of these three new agencies.

No expense must be spared in our full forensic witchhunt, to discover whether the botched Afghanistan withdrawal was botched or not. To make the nation great again, it must secure this vital strategic resource: a regular supply of stuff we can blame liberals for.

I mentioned this before, trump seems to have done the unimaginable... he seems to be turning at least some Canadians against Gretzky...

From: https://ca.news.yahoo.com/wayne-gretzky-booed-during-canada-175935278.html
The choice of Wayne Gretzky as honorary captain of Canada’s hockey team in Thursday night’s game against America has upset fans of the sport.... Fan reaction to the choice of Gretzky as captain was largely negative. Hockey writer Ken Campbell took to X to call the decision “tone deaf,” while an account called Great White North responded with a GIF that said “disgraceful,” and another, J. Hunter, contrasted an image of Gretzky at the game with one of his meetings with Trump, which showed both men giving a thumbs-up sign. Another user, Kelley Ware, posted: “The neighborhood pub I am in just booed Gretzky. What a world we live in.”
