Was the Reagan amnesty an executive order, or an act of Congress? If it was an executive order, Trump can reverse it with a stroke of his Sharpie.
Passed by Congress, that was back when congress was actually functional.
Could be. (I’d been thinking: maybe three nipples? But it could just be his general life-long grossness.)
A friend sent me a link, I think it is Xitter, about something to do with Keith Richards. Below the relevant post was another post by Constanze Stelzenmüller, who seems to be someone in the EU, judging by the flag, who reposted something President Ineptstein posted himself and left me scratching my head. No idea who she is, or whether the post is legit. But it feels so trumpian, it probably is. Deep Poe’s Law. It reads:
As President of the United States, I have access to information that could bring down the Papacy, the Vatican and the entire Catholic Church overnight!
It is so absurd I have to post it here too, for whatever it is worth.
Well, “Trump announces plan to destroy the Catholic Church ” will certainly work to keep both the Epstein Files and the Iran war out of the headlines…

I don’t think that one’s real. I’m looking at his Truth Social account and I don’t see anything like that from April 16th.
That would be a pity! It would be interesting to know what he knows as President of the United States that could take the Catholic Church down. Oh, well… next time.
Here’s the latest effort to try to get out of the mess Trump has made of this war. Project Freedom - a humanitarian excuse for ships to get past the U.S. blockade. But only for the countries who are “innocent” and haven’t played a part in the “dispute”. (I guess China would be on the top of that list since Trump is going there soon and doesn’t want Xi to be pissed at him.) But it’s also framed as if Iran is party to this effort so if they interfere, it will be all their fault if bad things happen to them. Stay tuned tomorrow.
Countries from all over the World, almost all of which are not involved in the Middle Eastern dispute going on so visibly, and violently, for all to see, have asked the United States if we could help free up their Ships, which are locked up in the Strait of Hormuz, on something which they have absolutely nothing to do with — They are merely neutral and innocent bystanders! For the good of Iran, the Middle East, and the United States, we have told these Countries that we will guide their Ships safely out of these restricted Waterways, so that they can freely and ably get on with their business. Again, these are Ships from areas of the World that are not in any way involved with that which is currently taking place in the Middle East. I have told my Representatives to inform them that we will use best efforts to get their Ships and Crews safely out of the Strait. In all cases, they said they will not be returning until the area becomes safe for navigation, and everything else. This process, Project Freedom, will begin Monday morning, Middle East time. I am fully aware that my Representatives are having very positive discussions with the Country of Iran, and that these discussions could lead to something very positive for all. The Ship movement is merely meant to free up people, companies, and Countries that have done absolutely nothing wrong — They are victims of circumstance. This is a Humanitarian gesture on behalf of the United States, Middle Eastern Countries but, in particular, the Country of Iran. Many of these Ships are running low on food, and everything else necessary for largescale crews to stay on board in a healthy and sanitary manner. I think it would go a long way in showing Goodwill on behalf of all of those who have been fighting so strenuously over the last number of months. If, in any way, this Humanitarian process is interfered with, that interference will, unfortunately, have to be dealt with forcefully. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Rip van Simple beleives he can Sharpie the constitution .
Pardel-Lux:
President Ineptstein
Great moniker!
@aurora_maire I thought Rip van Simple was angry at and wanted to punish every country that did not join him in his vanity war against Iran.
Even leading pubbies think telling Putin “Come and get it” is not a good idea.
Two top Republican lawmakers expressed their concern Saturday about President Donald Trump’s decision to withdraw 5,000 U.S. troops from NATO ally Germany.
“We are very concerned by the decision to withdraw a U.S. brigade from Germany,” Sen. Roger Wicker, R-Miss, and Rep. Mike Rogers, R-Ala., respectively the heads of the House and Senate Armed Services committees, said in a joint statement.
The president said Saturday that there could be more cuts to troops in Europe after the Pentagon announced the withdrawal. Trump told reporters: “We’re going to cut way down, and we’re cutting a lot further than 5,000.”
The decision to slash troops came after German Chancellor Friedrich Merz told students earlier in the week that the U.S. was “being humiliated by the Iranian leadership,” unusually frank remarks that triggered a backlash from Washington. Almost 40,000 U.S. troops are currently stationed in Germany, the largest contingent in Europe.
Wicker and Rogers said it was in “America’s interest to maintain a strong deterrent in Europe,” warning about the signal it would send Russia to slash the American presence on the continent.
Apparently, the way the wind blows is now a national security issue.
May 3 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump’s administration has brought U.S. onshore wind development to a halt, citing national security concerns, the Financial Times reported on Sunday.
Approvals for about 165 onshore wind projects on private lands are being held up by the Pentagon, FT said, citing the American Clean Power Association and people close to the matter.
The affected projects include wind farms that were awaiting final sign-off, others in the middle of negotiations and some that typically would not require oversight by the Pentagon, the FT said.
Reuters could not immediately verify the report.
The American Clean Power Association and Pentagon did not immediately respond to requests for comment by Reuters.
I think there is, though, one bag of air blowing that is a huge national security detriment.
And the felon is rapidly approaching Kim Il Sung level narcissism.
The federal government is undergoing an unprecedented presidential branding makeover , with Donald Trump’s name being added to everything from buildings and battleships to a drug website and a park pass.
While Trump has had roads and even an airport named after him since winning a second term in office, his administration has initiated a series of actions to imprint his name and likeness on the federal government well beyond internal documents and communications.
Not all of those efforts have been successful, such as a push to have a New York City train station and Washington, D.C.-area airport named after Trump. But the scope of the others is enormous, including the addition of his signature to U.S. paper currency — a first for a sitting U.S. president.
The branding is in stark contrast to prior presidencies, including Trump’s first term, when the largest branding controversy involved having his name added to Covid relief checks during an election year.
Oh, Hell yes! The felon’s crypto is connected to a scam network. Oh, Hell yes!
A Wall Street Journal investigation has found that World Liberty Financial, the Trump crypto venture, partnered with a virtual-currency company called AB whose key figures were sanctioned by the U.S. Treasury for alleged ties to a transnational pig butchering scam network that stole billions from Americans.
Not only does he love other people’s money, he hates other people’s golf.
President Donald Trump is ready to take on his next renovation.
The president is shutting down the busiest public golf course in Washington, D.C. on Sunday so that he can rip it up and turn it into what he envisions as another over-the-top homage to his own power.
The National Park Service will begin landscaping and clearing trees at the East Potomac Golf Links on Monday, while the president develops a complete redesign, NOTUS reported .
“This news was a complete surprise to us,” a spokesman for The National Links Trust, the most recent leaseholder of the golf course, told NOTUS. “For the sake of our community and employees, we hope to have clarity as soon as possible. We remain committed to our mission, our community, and working to protect the public golf courses in Washington, D.C. for the benefit of the entire community.”
Countries from all over the World, almost all of which are not involved in the Middle Eastern dispute going on so visibly, and violently, for all to see, have asked the United States if we could help free up their Ships, which are locked up in the Strait of Hormuz, on something which they have absolutely nothing to do with…
Not written by OrangeMan. The whole screed has actual grammar, insufficient capitalization; but the dead giveaway is the part about countries asking the US. It should have said, “countries asking me …”.
Everyone calls him directly. Like the thousand of Iranian police, IRCG, and Basij who called him to surrender. Must have been hell on the White House phone lines. Even worse for the Innumerable Iranians who couldn’t get through because phone, internet, and media were cut off
Seems like a missed opportunity for a “Sir” story.

This is what, the third or fourth time he’s claimed the Navy would escort ships through the strait?
I’ll believe it when I see it.

An analysis of Trump’s posting habits indicates that he only sleeps about 3 hours a night on average and that there were only five days in April where he wasn’t frantically posting overnight.
I’ve long wondered about this.
Seems like the right thread.
