Donald J. Trump (For everyone else)
I assume it's still acceptable to have a Trump thread in a Politics forum?
So this is an obvious lie - basically aimed at
It’s a nothing burger ultimately but the AP/Gulf of America banning thing is pretty amazing.
WH- We are banning the AP for pushing a radical leftist agenda by refusing to say Gulf of America
AP - That’s a blatant 1st Amendment violation.
WH - Nevermind, actually it was entirely a space management issue.
AP - Here’s a letter in which you explicitly state that you are banning us because of the gulf of America thing, and 20 video clips saying the same.
You can't expect a modern day "conservative" administration to be consistent, honest or law-abiding.
Those are old-fashioned values from the olden days when everything was much worse.
And renaming stuff and “erasing” history used to be a big no no. But the main criteria is white identity/fragility so it’s not really inconsistent through that lens.

This is the lol of America. Dems rename/remove stuff, Conservatives up in arms. GOP rename/remove stuff, Dems up in arms. It's a can't win society.
Jimmy Carville says Trump admin gonna crumble within 30 days. Brace yourselves.

When ?
The White House announced Sunday that President Obama is changing the name of North America's highest peak.
Mount McKinley — named after William McKinley, the 25th president, who served in the White House until his assassination in 1901 — is returning to its traditional Alaska Native name, Denali.
Obama will make a public announcement of the name change in Anchorage Monday, during a three-day visit to Alaska.
As Alaska's Newsminer reports:
"The mountain, which has been officially named after the 25th president of the United States since 1917, will now be recognized by the U.S. Board of Geographic [N]ames by its original Koyukon Athabascan name."
Luciom,
He's not saying Obummer didn't do it. He's saying you're a hypocrite, you moron. Which you are. Who said this?
"And trying to change meaning to everyday words, or to classify stuff differently from the top, is literally what the most psychopathich dictators do, like when they rename streets, months, or change the duration of the day or the calendar the population should use just to put their fingerprint deeper on society."
This is the lol of America. Dems rename/remove stuff, Conservatives up in arms. GOP rename/remove stuff, Dems up in arms. It's a can't win society.
Then you got mindless both sides bros that can’t think independently enough to wonder why a terrorist organization that has killed more US soldiers than any other adversary has statues and military bases named after them in the first place.
Carville talks out his ass on a regular basis.
I doubt anything "crumbles" But Trump surrounds himself with a bunch of people that are really good at telling everyone how bad the other side is doing, but not so good at actually doing. Plus, you put 20 *******s in the same room and it's sure to be a total shitshow.
I suspect these shenanigans will tank American then world economy soon, so converted all investments to cash for now, except those paying dividends soon. I don't think there's anything to be made on any short term upswing that's worth any investment risk tbh.

Yeah, I'm slowly doing this as well.
I gotta say, kinda disappointed they pussied out on the Fort Bragg re-re-name.
If you’re gonna change it back, why not go the whole hog and stick that Confederate bad boy up there.
I think best time to sell might be if Ukraine peace deal somehow works out, a few days after that's happens cos shares will be up, then sell sell sell.
I can't be bothered to piss about though.
I have no idea if Carville is credible here, but he's probably right about the trajectory. I think it will take a few months at least - maybe 5-6, but I also think it'll limp along for years trying to bunker it out.
This is inaccurate. The USAID budget for 2024 was $23 billion (down from $38 billion the year before).
Not all U.S. foreign aid is distributed through USAID.

Well yeah. That’s an example of my point.
Republicans Blast Decision to Rename Mt ...
Of course Obama was actually restoring the name to what it’s been historically and what Alaskans have called it all along rather than the name of some rando who never went to Alaska in his life. But again it’s very easy to figure out which side conservatives will be on in renaming stuff, just find pick the white fragility side

And here is the super duper professional response from the WH to the AP's lawsuit seeking access on First Amendment grounds.
In a statement Friday evening, White House communications director Steven Cheung said: “The AP’s frivolous and demented lawsuit is nothing more than a blatant PR stunt masquerading as a first amendment case. They are clearly suffering from a severe, debilitating case of Trump Derangement Syndrome that has rotted their peanut-sized brains. We will defeat them in court just like we crushed their leftist reporters at the ballot box.”
There's literally no freaking way
Onion?
**** posting on the internet - Official White House Statements
I guess they're the same with these peanut brains.
I wonder if there's a list of republicans that have said something like "even though I agree that the ap should be banned (lol) the communications director should at least try to be professional."
I'm sure the list is right here:
The lack of response alone (assumed) would be enough to make me rethink who I supported, without a doubt.
God, that's pathetic
So DOGE gutted multiple federal agencies that accounted for far less than 1% of the budget for a total maximum possible savings of 8 billion dollars. They also list a bunch of programs on there that they canceled despite them being fully paid for already.

Basically DOGE proved that the government actually was running efficiently and that the things adding to our deficit are
If only we had some other models that could show us the likely outcome... hmmm...

The stuff coming out of the WH will just keep getting funnier and funnier the more they're reined in.
