That is, if the admin actually did any planning.

That is a much easier question to answer.

Hard question to answer. Are wars already cooked into the Pentagon budget? Are consumed munitions and fuel considered an added cost?

All the hardware and personnel are costing money all the time anyway. Does it matter what they are doing?

More pay and trophies serving in a war zone for sure, but it can't be that much more.

I wonder why OneTrumper thinks it's a stupid metric

Because his whole shtick is that everyone is wrong about everything, except him.

BTW, Stephen Colbert's cold open tonight was brilliant!!!

Colbert is just daring Lewzer to fire him before his contract expires.

Ka-Ching... $$$$!

reported assets worth well over $100 million

Rory McIlroy is worth 5x that and he plays golf.

Rich? Sure. Mega-Oligarch? I don't think so.

As a rep Swalwel is still useful to the party so he will be spared.

Isn't he gone?

Anyone want to take a Stab at explaining "culturally relevant food?"

I would assume food that the customers would want to eat.

well, apparently, there was no Plan B.

I don't think Lewzer had a Plan A. Not one that didn't change every day. Now he's back to the, "we don't want the smoking gun to be a mushroom cloud" scary story.

Tornadoes in Kansas today.

Trump got bored with it already?

Perhaps USS Photo Prop will chase them down on the high seas?

A Chinese ship got through...

Lewzer is on his way to the golf course this morning... he can deal with China on Tuesday when he gets back to the office.

Before the official name change, Dummkopf Trumpf slipped and referred to USSECDEF Pete Hegseth as "Secretary of War"

I don't think the name change is even official now.

Unilaterally reneging on a deal will do that.

Not until after you gave them "pallets of cash", of course.

I don't agree with you that Trump is only seeking things in his own interest.

That's fair. You are entitled to your own opinion.

It's all he's ever done in his entire miserable life, so I think I will stick with mine.

Vance is now blaming Iran for "economic terrorism", after the US blockades Hormuz.

Who writes this stuff? Monty Python?

Trump is dealing with the practical realities of a complicated world

He is doing nothing of the sort. He is demanding the world work the way he says it should work.

It's not.

Exactly why is Israel the only country in the region allowed to have nukes, again?

Cuz Muslims and Arabs are scary.

What is the end goal?

Showing the world who's the Boss.

If I were Iran I'd tell Trump to pound sand.

They did.

Santos was expelled.

And pardoned.

Where, where, where the hell is Bill?

Bill would make this about the inherent evil of mail-in ballots.

H.R.4393 - DIGNIDAD (Dignity) Act of 2025

Why did you remove "Dignity" from the title?

He prolly thought the robes, clouds, and angels were standard doctor gear.

And of course the bald eagles and fighter jets. Amazing they didn't work USS Photo Prop in there somewhere.

It's not theirs to control.

It is so long as it's within missile range.

Has Lewzer announced 500% tariffs on Hungary yet? Or is he still throwing his burgers around the room?
