Trump's family and cronies will run the country. Look for someone of them to work with Cheveron for a piece of their pie.
We’re going to run the country…?

Well the war in the Caribbean is not distracting the press from the Epstein files so in the classic fashion of "wag the dog" he'll start another one.
"But the one truth in Trump’s unhinged messages, as in so many of his statements, is that the United States is now led by someone who cannot contain his thoughts or emotions, and who still thinks of the men and women of the U.S. military as little more than his own toy soldiers."
Happy New Year. The president just threatened Operation Iranian Freedom.

What a _nice_ man he is!
So, the actual Heritage Americans sued about the placement of an immigration facility in the Everglades and are now being punished by the Trump administration
In his veto letter, President Trump blamed the Miccosukee Tribe for having “actively sought to obstruct reasonable immigration policies that the American people decisively voted for when I was elected.”

I say we send Mike Flynn to GITMO. Who's with me?
1/ In a racist rant supported by a misleading graphic, Flynn proposes sending Obama “back to Africa” and suggests we “prosecute” Somalis on welfare.

Her "legacy" is supporting her fascist, racist husband by providing him a "home". She should change her first name to Magda.

What a stupid design. Someone show him what happened to the Moskva. It's going to take 10 years at least, the way Pentagon procurement works, to get to the point where actual construction starts. He'll be long dead by then.

Trump's "Freedom Games" are being compared to the "Hunger Games". But another comparison might be to "Death Race 2000". Trump might to meditate on how that movie ends.

I'm a boomer. It's fine. Trump really is the ultimate boomer- dodged Vietnam, made and lost a couple of fortunes while his employees suffered, was always demanding attention for dubious achievements-and the country is suffering for it.
To all the people offended that I used the term Boomer:

slate.com/news-and-pol... That's nice, he's not going to fire him though. Trump thinks he's now an elected king & as long as Hegseth tells him he is then his job is secure. Kings don't like to admit errors since to do so reduces their self-image.
If Trump Doesn’t Fire Pete Hegseth Now, It’s Going to Send a Message Heard Round the World
What Trump does now could affect civilian–military relations for decades to come.
