Aside from floating from one ceremonial testimonial to himself to another Potemkin village-style staged event, Trump actually does very little, certainly when it comes to actual work: rollcall.com

Clue: He surely regards the extraordinary amount of time he wastes mired in ridiculous displays of obeisance by glassy-eyed toadies as "work."

If we survive him and there is still a relatively free press running somewhere, historians are going to spend decades puzzling over this one.

And, as usual: No, thank you, MAGAts. No, really, the best you can do is just eff off.

Since 1948 under both Democratic and Republican Party administrations, the peace-loving, hardworking American taxpayer has sent the Labor and Likud governments of Israel, a prosperous and nuclear-armed country, $317.9bn, the most US economic aid given to any nation in the world while they ethnically cleanse and oppress the Palestinian people.

Unlike the US, Israel provides world class universal healthcare for its residents and maintains a superior social security system (B+) to America's (C+). Source: US funds ethnic cleansing while we have the BBB, medical bankruptcies, and government insolvency

Inexplicably, the Democratic Party doesn't publicly release the autopsy report explaining why 6,265,888 supporters they had on Tuesday 3 Nov 2020 decided to stay home on Tuesday 5 Nov 2024. These antiwar Samaritans did not waste their vote on either oligarch Dummkopf Trumpf or Green Party candidate Jill Stein (who received a meager 861,142 votes nationwide).

Republicans don't want a full release of the Jeffrey Epstein files.

Democrats don't want a full release of the 2024 election autopsy report.

Lyrics excerpt...

...
[Verse 1]
Jump down the shelters to get away
The boys are cockin' up their guns
Tell us general, is it party time?
If it is, can we all come?

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Don't think that we don't know
Don't think that we're not trying
Don't think we move too slow
It's no use after crying

[Chorus]
Saying it's a mistake
It's a mistake
It's a mistake
It's a mistake

[Verse 2]
After the laughter has died away
And all the boys have had their fun
No surface noise now, not much to say
They got the bad guys on the run

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Don't try to say you're sorry
Don't say he drew his gun
They've gone and grabbed old Ronnie
He's not the only one
See Men at Work Live
Get tickets as low as $55

[Chorus]
Saying it's a mistake
It's a mistake
It's a mistake
It's a mistake

[Verse 3]
Tell us, commander, what do you think?
'Cos we know that you love all that power
Is it on then, are we on the brink?
We wish you'd all throw in the towel

[Pre-Chorus 3]
We'll not fade out too soon
Not in this finest hour
Whistle your favourite tune
We'll send a card and flower

[Chorus]
Saying it's a mistake
It's a mistake
It's a mistake
It's a mistake, oh

[Outro]
It's a mistake (It's a mistake)
It's a mistake (It's a mistake)
It's a mistake (It's a mistake)
It's a mistake (It's a mistake)
It's a mistake (It's a mistake)
It's a mistake (It's a mistake)
It's a mistake, it's a mistake
(It's a mistake)

Carrier USS Gerald R. Ford Arrives in Souda Bay for Repairs After Laundry Room Fire
news.usni.org

... USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78) pulled into port at Souda Bay, Greece, the Navy announced Monday.

Ford, the flagship of the Gerald R. Ford Carrier Strike Group, is in port for maintenance and repairs following a March 12 fire in the aft laundry room.

A ship spotter saw Ford and three destroyers head into the Suez Canal on Saturday. A replenishment ship also accompanied the aircraft carrier. It's unclear whether the destroyers also finished the transit north through the Suez.

Ford is scheduled for more than a week of repairs, USNI News previously reported. The Navy's Monday announcement did not say how long Ford is expected to be in port.

"The aircraft carrier remains fully mission capable," reads the Navy statement. "The port call allows for the ship to undergo efficient assessment, repairs and resupply."

More than 200 sailors were treated for smoke inhalation, with one sailor medically evacuated from the carrier, after being injured in the damage control effort. Two others were treated for lacerations, USNI News reported.

The smoke damage from the laundry room fire extended to the berthing. The Navy took 1,000 mattresses off the future USS John F. Kennedy (CVN-79) in Newport News, Va., to send to Ford. More than 100 racks were lost in the fire, a Pentagon spokesman told USNI News. ...
