Trump wants to be able to control the media the same way that Russia does, because he wants to be just like his man crush Putin, the bare-chested tiger wrestler. Real news media outlets are protected by the first amendment, so only outlets that parrot administration talking points are going to be allowed in Pentagon press conferences.

Yep. Also, Pete Hegseth lives in daily fear that someone in the Pentagon will reveal what they all really think of him.

US had B-1 bombers flying off the coast of Venezuela today as a show of force; similar to the B-52s last week. Dementia Don, when asked about it, claimed it was fake news.  
The bombers had their identification pingers on and showed up on Flight radar and other sites. Kegsbreath must not be sharing.  
"“There’s reporting that the US just sent B-1 bombers near Venezuela to ramp up some military pressure there. Is that accurate, and can you tell us more about that mission?” a reporter asked Trump at a press conference today.

“No, it’s not accurate. It’s false,” he responded. “But we’re not happy with Venezuela for a lot of reasons.”

He’s now directed the aircraft carrier Gerald Ford and its battle group to the waters off Venezuela. Those little speedboats won’t have a chance. $6 to $8 million a day just for the carrier and air wing.

From Colbert  
“As of this morning, the East Wing looked like a rotisserie chicken your dog got into,” Colbert said.

“That is very upsetting to look at, and you know the administration knows that because today, the Secret Service closed access to the Ellipse park, which is a public park from which journalists have been capturing live images of the East Wing demolition.

Well, that makes sense: if none of it’s on camera, they can just claim the East Wing hanged itself in prison.”

I was watching and did something rare for me with late-night talk shows: I laughed out loud.

As for Donald’s denials about Venezuela: wasn’t he the guy who said the East Wing of the White House wouldn’t be touched? Oh, yeah:

I’m curious. If it is ‘private funding’ to build the ballroom, will those investors have a right to claim ownership of it later down the track? Charge rent to whoever is the President at the time? I’d be very interested to see the details of the deals done.

Journalists love to say he’s “transactional.”

Today he’s fine with you; tomorrow he deports you to an El Salvadoran concentration camp. Because you didn’t offer him the right “transaction.”

Admiral Dump strikes again. Perhaps coal fired or with rows of galley slaves?

The “Golden Fleet”?

New large 15,000 to 20,000-ton surface combatants?
