    I’d make time for it too if millions of taxpayer dollars were going into a club I owned.  Might as well take advantage of the chumps who voted for you, and piss off the ones who didn’t!

    Good to see the big ticket items being dealt with early, like the name of part of the Atlantic Ocean and a mountain.   Hope that real estate deal for Greenland gets done, because that's been on everyone's mind too.  What's left? Afetrall Ukraine was sorted within a day of inauguration, as promised.

    I see that Biden Derangement Syndrome persists, even after he's left office.   That's a shame.  I hope you get the help you need soon.

    CHEETO shows his stripes:
    Maybe it shouldn't be surprising that a guy famous for not paying his bills is now leading an administration that just stopped paying theirs. 

    "President Donald Trump's White House ordered a pause in all federal grants and loans starting on Tuesday, a sweeping decision that could disrupt education, health care and poverty programs, housing assistance, disaster relief and a host of other initiatives that depend on trillions of federal dollars. The freeze followed Trump's suspension of foreign aid last week, a move that began cutting off the supply of lifesaving medicines on Tuesday to countries around the world that depend on U.S. development assistance." Trump funding freeze could disrupt education, housing, disaster aid. It basically disrupts everything, and it wrests control over spending matters from Congress. "The U.S. Constitution gives Congress control over spending matters, but Trump said during his campaign that he believes the president has the power to withhold money for programs he dislikes. His nominee for White House budget director, Russell Vought, who has not yet been confirmed by the Senate, headed a think tank that has argued Congress cannot require a president to spend money."
    And the related article-

    The Wednesday Clown Show summary:

    "A federal judge yesterday temporarily blocked Trump’s bid to pause federal funding programs until early next week in response to a lawsuit alleging the move violates the First Amendment. Chris Megerian and Linsday Whitehurst report for AP News

    Two dozen Democratic Attorneys General yesterday filed a lawsuit seeking to prevent the Trump administration from cutting off federal funding, arguing that the attempt to block Congress-allocated funding exceeded Trump’s legal powers. Michael D. Shear reports for the New York Times.

Julian Mark, Lauren Kaori Gurley, and Lisa Rein report for the Washington Post.

    Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth yesterday revoked the security detail and security clearance of Gen. Mark Milley, a former top U.S. general, a Pentagon spokesperson said.

    The Trump administration may pull funding from the Transportation Security Administration, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, and Coast Guard to help address Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) budget shortfalls. Julia Ainsley reports for NBC News.

    The Pentagon is allowing ICE to use a military base in Colorado to detain undocumented migrants, U.S. Northern Command confirmed yesterday. Eric Schmitt reports for the New York Times.

    OTOH, are undocumented illegals allowed to vote?

    Thursday Clown Show update:

    "President Trump yesterday ordered the construction of a detention camp with room for 30,000 migrants at Guantánamo Bay, outlining plans for a site outside U.S. territory where immigrants detained in his widening deportation campaign could be sent. Nick Miroff and Dan Lamothe report for the Washington Post

    Trump yesterday signed the Laken Riley Act, which requires the detention of migrants who enter the country without authorization or those arrested or charged with certain crimes such as theft. Zolan Kanno-Youngs and Erica L. Green report for the New York Times.

    Trump signed an executive order yesterday pledging to deport non-citizen college students and others who took part in pro-Palestinian protests since the Oct. 7 Hamas attack. The plan also calls for immediate action to fight antisemitism on college campuses and promises to prosecute offenders. Andrea Shalal reports for ReutersCBS News reports."

    And I try not to copy/paste long online articles here, but I have to add this paragraph from a HC Richardson email a day or two ago:
     
    Forcing the Republican agenda by continuing to portray political opponents as dangerous to America because of wasteful spending and misguided priorities has reached cartoonish extremes. Trump has nonsensically claimed that thanks to him, the U.S. military has “TURNED ON THE WATER” in California, apparently misunderstanding that the Army Corps of Engineers had conducted maintenance on federal water pumps for three days and turned them back on when the maintenance was complete.
    :rofl:

    Friday Clown Show summary (slowing down)

    "President Trump today ordered a review of all federal aviation hiring and safety decisions in response to the crash. The order suggests Trump is doubling down on his claim, without evidence, that DEI policies played a role in the crash. At a press briefing, Trump claimed the FAA was “ran into the ground” by DEI recruitment after it was determined that the agency was “too white.” Trump also blamed the Biden administration for allegedly hiring people with disabilities and psychological issues for air traffic controller positions. Alex Isenstadt and Marc Caputo report for Axios; Bernd Debusmann Jr reports for BBC News.

    Trump’s sweeping executive order to suspend foreign aid risks cutting off a U.S. program that supports security forces in a notorious Syrian desert camp housing tens of thousands of self-styled Islamic State members and their families, according to Syrian and U.S. officials. Erika Solomon, Lara Jakes, and Ben Hubbard report for the New York Times."
