Trump threatens Gov contractor to act right

U.S. President Donald Trump criticized defense contractor Raytheon (RTX.N) , opens new tab on Wednesday for what he called the company's slow response to the demands of the U.S. military and threatened to cut its government contracts if the firm did not restrict stock buybacks. "Also, if Raytheon wants further business with the United States Government, under no circumstances will they be allowed to do any additional Stock Buybacks, where they have spent Tens of Billions of Dollars, until they are able to get their act together," Trump wrote on social media.

Now that's my President.

#1 Pedodent Trump.

But of course he's your pedodent, Major DEI Boazo.

Is it true you were drummed out of the service because you were overlooked for promotions.

At least that's what many people say.

"I thought we grabbed Maduro to stem socialism in the Americas, not to turn D.C. into Caracas on the Potomac," said a defense industry official, referring to the capture of Venezuelan President Nicols Maduro.

Yours is a very needy president, Boaz.

I imagine Defense contractors get threatened all the time but now we have a president who loves for it to be public.

Why do you call Boaz "DEI"?

#5 | Posted by eberly at 2026-01-08 02:06 PM

"From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs."

You know, Major DEI Boaz is a communist.

From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.

In fact, every parent is a communist.

From each according to his ability (parents), to each according to his needs (their children).

#5 He received whatever promotions he got due to his skin color.

That's it.

#7 | Posted by A_Friend at 2026-01-08 02:08 PM

"...his skin color."

maybe you should rethink that.

How is that not racist?

#8 | Posted by eberly at 2026-01-08 02:11 PM

#8 Well, it certainly wasn't because of his ability.

I calls 'em as I sees 'em.

#9 | Posted by A_Friend at 2026-01-08 02:12 PM

#8 And, hey, don't blame me for the quotas put in place by the US military.

I just calls 'em as I sees 'em.

#4 Yep.

We have a person cosplaying president.

'Tis all show, meant to distract and confuse, to sew chaos.

From one atrocious event to the next.

Got to keep the people confused, amused (bread & circuses) and fighting with each other, while the US treasury is being raided, and we're entering the 16 tons era:

Some people say a man is made out of mud
A poor man's made out of muscle and blood
Muscle and blood and skin and bones
A mind that's weak and a back that's strong
You load sixteen tons, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter, don't you call me, 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store
I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
I loaded sixteen tons of number 9 coal
And the straw boss said, "Well a-bless my soul!"
You load sixteen tons, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter, don't you call me, 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store
I was born one mornin', it was drizzlin' rain
Fightin' and trouble are my middle name
I was raised in the canebrake by an old mama lion
Can't no high-toned woman make me walk the line
You load sixteen tons, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter, don't you call me, 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store
If you see me comin' better step aside
A lot of men didn't, a lot of men died
One fist of iron, the other of steel
If the right one don't getcha, then the left one will
You load sixteen tons, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter, don't you call me, 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

Well, it certainly wasn't because of his ability.

You ain't seen ---- Hans. You don't even know me.

And the military is the least racist place on earth. People like you couldn't hack it in the military, as the military is performance based. There was no DEI in the military.

#6,

You really are a jealous person. Your #6 is really pathetic if you think that's how the world works.

#14 | Posted by boaz at 2026-01-08 04:22 PM

You're a literal mumbling, bumbling, backwoods ------, pal. Go ---- off.

#15 | Posted by LegallyYourDead at 2026-01-08 04:46 PM

Now that's my President.

It is absurdly hilarious to see the "free market" "capitalist" "anti-socialist" "anti-communist" magat scum praise ACTUAL socialism at work

I seriously cannot stop laughing.

Reminder, if Biden had done this magat scum would have literally branded him (with a hot iron) with a hammer and sickle.

TOOO FARRKING FUNNY

#16 | Posted by truthhurts at 2026-01-08 04:50 PM

No, he's just making a market adjustment.

I would think you would be happy and praise him.

But I know, orange man bad..

You got me wrong magat scum, fascist man bad. I will fight everything a fascist does, because they are fascists.

George Orwell would be proud.

#20 | Posted by truthhurts at 2026-01-08 04:55 PM

Government controlling how a private firm spends their money is sort of the text book definition of socialism

I wouldn't expect you to understand that

#21 | Posted by truthhurts at 2026-01-08 04:56 PM

But you cheer on President Piggy for seizing the means of production. I, at least, will have a hearty laugh

#22 | Posted by truthhurts at 2026-01-08 04:58 PM

What are the odds that Boaz knows about Intel and US Steel?

#23 | Posted by truthhurts at 2026-01-08 04:59 PM

I bet Boaz is furiously googling as we speak

#24 | Posted by truthhurts at 2026-01-08 05:00 PM

Oh, he's worse than that:

"I would think you would be happy and praise him."

If Biden did it, he'd be roundly condemned. By you.

#26 | Posted by Danforth at 2026-01-08 05:06 PM

#14 I absolutely love watching you grovel before your insipid "beliefs."

Oh, and I know all about you, Major DEI Boazo.

You're an ungrateful coward.

You're welcome.

#27 | Posted by A_Friend at 2026-01-08 05:08 PM

#14 Besides, I've already proven that you're a communist, Major DEI Boazo.

#28 | Posted by A_Friend at 2026-01-08 05:10 PM

#14 And, hey, Major DEI Boazo, is it true that you were passed over for promotions, over and over and over again ? ? ? ?

That's why you were drummed out?

At least that's what some people say.

#29 | Posted by A_Friend at 2026-01-08 05:13 PM

The rats appear to be eating each other.

#30 | Posted by redlightrobot at 2026-01-08 05:20 PM

I heard Boaz was dishonorably discharged over a dont ask dont tell allegation

#31 | Posted by truthhurts at 2026-01-08 05:24 PM

#31 Well, some people say, so ....

#32 | Posted by A_Friend at 2026-01-08 05:26 PM

It's a "pump and dump" according to some.. Is that what is predicted in this scenario?

These are organizations tied intricately to DOD, impossible to imagine war without them.

#33 | Posted by redlightrobot at 2026-01-08 06:29 PM

Trump directly interferes with private industry far more than any potus in recent history, far more than any "commie" Dem potus, and what's mooch's response?

Now that's my President.

What a f^*+ing idiot. Has no idea he's a literal fascist because he's too stupid to even know what the word means.

#34 | Posted by jpw at 2026-01-08 07:52 PM

Horse s*^%. If a brain dead moron like you can make it in the army, it must be the least performance based place around.

Either that or the tasks are the easiest s^*% imaginable and you're just so low functioning you think it's hard.

#35 | Posted by jpw at 2026-01-08 07:59 PM

No, he's just making a market adjustment.

You are such a pathetic. F^*%ing. Idiot.

#36 | Posted by jpw at 2026-01-08 08:03 PM

@#1 ... Now that's my President. ...

The Socialist interfering in Capitalism?

Is that what your alias means?

While I do agree that the suppliers of our Military have been on a gravy-train for years (decades?), I have to ask -- is this the best way to resolve the problem?

#37 | Posted by LampLighter at 2026-01-08 08:04 PM

Bo@ss, who famously applied for a purple heart because he sprained his wrist picking up a clipboard, is a ------- retarded MAGAT ass clown.
