Soon #Trump will say: "I came, I saw, #Iran". The words of one of the greatest commanders from history... or something like that.
Hegseth says he will allow troops to take personal weapons onto military bases

Defense Department policy has prohibited military personnel from carrying personal weapons on base without permission from a senior commander, with strict protocol for how the firearms must be stored.

Just one day after #France's President #Macron said of #Trump:

“You have to be serious. When you want to be serious, you don’t go around saying the opposite every day of what you just said the day before. And perhaps you shouldn’t talk every day.”

>> There is no universe in which I will prioritize 'Upload ID' over 'Delete Account'…

In the #US, you will not only NOT delete your account, you will create one if you don't already have one, and THEN you will not only upload your id docs, you will sit in front of a camera to submit a live ID — and this will be when you need to get your own retirement money from the #SocialSecurity Administration — money that you contributed that is now conditional upon verified ELECTRONIC ID.

French President Macron offers blunt advice publicly to US President Trump: “You have to be serious. When you want to be serious, you don't say the opposite every day of what you said the day before.

Macron says 'unrealistic' to open Hormuz Strait by force, urges Trump to 'be serious'

French President Emmanuel Macron on Thursday said it would be unrealistic to launch a military operation to force open the Strait of Hormuz after US President Donald Trump challenged allies to work towards reopening it. In unusually strong criticism, Macron accused Trump of constantly contradicting himself on the Iran war and of undermining faith in the NATO military alliance.

>> I've just read that #Austria has closed its air space to Trump's bombers. Quenuine question. What happens if Trump's bombers fly through other countries space when they been banned?

#Trump doctrine is:
"Now #Spain actually said we can't use their bases and that's all right… We could use their base if we want. We could just fly in and use it. Nobody's gonna tell us not to use it."

That's right, he can force himself upon them whenever he wants to.

"In the end, what doomed Bondi is the basic reality that for Trump, the law is nothing more than a tool for destroying his rivals, protecting his wealth, and keeping him out of prison. People who use the law to do those things are useful to him; people who do not do so to his satisfaction are not."

Pam Bondi Was Bad. Trump’s Next Attorney General Will Be Worse

Trump gets rid of Cabinet members for one reason: He’s decided that his interests would be better served by an even more obedient loyalist.
