I've yet to meet a naval officer that wasn't kind of weird.

When I was stationed at Monterey the first time in the late 90s there was a group that would go downtown and LARP Vampire. That got banned because one of the kids actually thought he was a Vampire and was biting people. There are a lot of weirdos that go to DLI. There was a Wiccan in my class as well that would talk about casting spells, etc. DLI is kind of a breeding ground for weirdos. Not actual witches though.

Yeah he was trying to pawn off a lot of the day to day responsibilities of the job on someone else and we had huge acquisition delays because he didn't want to do it. It sounds like he was trying to run to Trump for cover every time he'd argue with Hegseth and Hegseth used the shipbuilding that Trump is obsessed with to finally get the ok to fire him.

Turns out Lutnick was slightly off when he said he had sold 1000 Trump gold residency cards on day one of the program. He's sold one.

Trump math is easy. Just say numbers. They don't have to be based on anything, just what sounds good at the moment.

As a huge Tim Heidecker/On Cinema at the Cinema fan, it's hilarious that Alex Jones has no idea how to separate events from comedy shows from reality. It's also completely unsurprising.

Him coming on set shirtless to confront Tim Heidecker and calling democrats body snatchers was certainly something.

Apparantly there was an active shooter in the lobby of the Correspondents Dinner, looks like he was taken out before he got anywhere but hard to say for sure what is going on. They did evacuate Trump but right now looks like he may be coming back because you know he has to tell all those "jokes"about his enemies in the press and Democrats

Yeah, if there was really a shooter, they would have evacuated him immediately and there would need to be an investigation.

Interesting how he’s run off the stage when there’s an actual shooting nearby but when he’s “hit by an actual bullet” the secret service just crowds around him and lets him take some images for a photo op.

Nothing to see here folks. Just move along

If that video is accurate that's some appallingly lax security.

So apparently the lesson to be learned here is that the President simply has to get his new ballroom.

The video my wife showed me, they evacuated Vance first and then went back for Trump. Made us both laugh.

Aren't Trump and Vance supposed to be separated in case something like this happens?

Line of succession and all that?

Yes. Also there are different SS teams involved. They moved Vance first because he was close to the exit and his team was right there. Trump wasn't moved until extra security was in place, then he was hard to get up off the floor and fell getting out.

Is there any evidence this guy even fired a shot? I saw that the Secret Service fired like 5 shots and missed on all. Also the guy was apparently on a completely different floor from where the event was so security wasn't as bad as we thought.

The GOP is trying to legislate 400 million for the ballroom. You know, the ballroom Trump said would cost taxpayers nothing.

Is it crazy that there's a better chance this was all staged to pump support for the ballroom than an actual assassination attempt?

This is like dating a crazy person who threatens to kill themselves every time you dont also get dessert at dinner so they don't feel fat.

Is it crazy that the only question we have is WHY this was staged, for the ballroom or for his falling public opinion or to distract from the Epstein files or his failed war or (well, we don't have time for the full list...)?

My passport doesn't need to be renewed until 2029. Is that going to be enough time to take Trump's face off of it before I have to renew?

SCOTUS guts what remains of the VRA and now we can expect another round of gerrymandering to get rid of black representation in the South.

Oh man. My wife needs to renew her passport soon. I'm reading a limited number -- does that (hopefully) mean it's something you only get if you ask for it?

It's only available near DC to start and you can specifically request not to receive it once or goes wide.

If it was mandatory, I already told my wife we just won't travel for a while because I'm about 5 months from renewal.

Also, what's the deal with some countries requiring 6 months remaining on your passport in order to go there? I get not overstaying your passport date, but that is excessive.

Kind of sad that the biggest opposition to Trump is Massie. Got the Glysophate immunity shit removed from the AG bill and is at least bringing some attention to the warrantless FISA system.

Someone in Congress was apparently trying to tell the American public that gas prices are lower now than when Biden was in power. That prices are going down. Do they really think people are that dumb?

Yes they do and so far they have been right. This playbook has worked over and over again for them.
