Trump's Second Term

[Mojo]

Trump: "We're gonna have the Irish Open at a property that happens to be owned by yours truly. But I have nothing to do with it. *crowd laughs* I own it but I don't even like to talk to my son. He says, 'Dad, we're doing great!' I'm allowed to. I'm allowed to run it. But I don't choose to."

"...because if I did it would be bankrupt in two weeks."

Interesting article here comparing Trump giving his Cabinet shoes that don't fit to Stalin giving speeches and arresting the first person to stop applauding.

Who will be the first to take off their shoes?

Across Washington, D.C., a new fashion trend has taken hold of those in Trump’s circle: embarrassingly oversized clown shoes.

From elsewhere,

- US troops are sent told to die in a war that's being run by people too cowardly to say, 'actually sir, my shoes should be size 9'

It's strange that Trump knows what he is signing as at a legal deposition under oath from quite some time ago he stated that he couldn't read standard sized text without his glasses...

Correction: "eligible Americans" (not a single Somali in the whole lot !).

ETA: the two weasels at the back look like they're either congratulating themselves for securing part of the loot, or having a good laugh at Trump signing something he has not idea of (again).

Rand Paul begins Markwayne Mullin's confirmation hearing by confronting him about comments Mullin made describing Paul as a "freakin' snake" and "celebrating" Paul getting assaulted

"I just wonder if someone who applauds violence against their political opponents is the right person to lead an agency that has struggled to accept limits to the proper use of force"

Q: Trump didn't consult with NATO before the war began. Why is it fair for the president to expect NATO allies to help now after the fact?

LEAVITT: NATO allies benefit far more from the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz than the US does

I wonder what would happen if we "finished off" what's left of the Iranian Terror State, and let the Countries that use it, we don't, be responsible for the so called "Straight?" That would get some of our non-responsive "Allies" in gear, and fast!!! President DJT

Markwayne Mullin to Rand Paul: "Before I can start my opening statement I have to address the remarks that the chairman made calling me a liar. Sir, I think everybody in this room knows I'm very and direct and to the point. And if I have something to say, I'll say it directly to your face. I said I can understand why your neighbor did what he did. Seems like you fight Republicans more than you work with us."

Is that real? Does he actually not know what a 'Strait' is?

RAND PAUL: You offered no apology. And you offer no apology today, and no regrets

MARKWAYNE MULLIN: I'm not apologizing for pointing out your character

PAUL: You want people to know you supported a felonious, violent attack on me from behind

MULLIN: I did not say I supported it. I said I understood it.

The Democrat's purposeful DHS SHUTDOWN is causing chaos at the airports. These Lunatics are being totally unreasonable in their Radical Left asks. They are FULLY TO BLAME, and must pay a big price, for the good of our Country, in the Midterm Elections. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

PETERS: Other than vacations, have you ever traveled to a foreign country?

MARKWAYNE MULLIN: No

PETERS: No? Okay. Your FBI report shows travel to Georgia and Azerbaijan

MULLIN: Are you referring to August 2021 when we get to get the Americans out of Afghanistan?

PETERS: So you have traveled. You just said you haven't
