USNI out with some actual details. Contrary to what I think Trump promised (I might be wrong?), USNI citing Navy says construction to begin in 2030, not ships in the water in 2028.

I always thought "The Emperor's New Clothes" was a bit silly, a clear exaggeration. But here we are. Everyone around Trump has agreed to live inside his delusion.
Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."

I won't forget.
