I apologize if this ruins your Sunday….
And the craziness goes on….
Last week was a busy week for Donny…..he and BiBi have a plan for Gaza, the government shutdown, he and Hogsbreath had a cheer leading meeting with all our generals, a big lower prices for drugs plan, and the beat goes on…..(if want to read about the analysis I have then they are all right here on IST)
THe US has sunk another of those “drug boats’…..there is something very scary about this whole affair….
President Donald Trump has offered a baffling legal justification for his extrajudicial military strikes on vessels the government claims are transporting drugs—and it’s a disturbing escalation of efforts to declare war against his enemies.
A confidential memo obtained by The Intercept that was sent to multiple congressional committees this week asserted that the president had sweeping discretion to order the executions of alleged drug smugglers because he had declared a state of “non-international armed conflict” against boats that are part of “designated terrorist organizations.”
But if the U.S. is at war, that’s for Congress to decide—not Trump—and the administration has offered no actual evidence to back up its claims that the vessels were linked to any drug cartel at all.
The memo claimed that Trump had the authority to determine cartels were “nonstate armed groups,” and that their transport of drugs constituted “an armed attack against the United States.”

Is there any proof these boats were cartel related or is this just Donny excuse to flex his muscle?
Let’s not forget the big plan from Donny, the Golden Dome…..
Months after US president Donald Trump signed off on a long-range missile defense system called the “Golden Dome,” officials and the public are still in the dark on how to finish the project — and experts warn its price tag will be far higher than previously disclosed.
After being given a 60-day deadline to come up with a plan for the project, Space Force General Michael Guetlein said the blueprint is complete — but wasn’t able to give any details about the scope, timeline, or cost, Bloomberg reports.
…
The ludicrous project is imagined as a constellation of hundreds of space-based ballistic missile interceptors at a cost of $175 billion to defend the United States from theoretical nuclear strikes. If all goes well, it’ll be online by 2028 — or at least, that’s what the Trump administration says.
Even its already grossly inflated price tag is probably optimistic thinking. Last week, analysts for the American Enterprise Institute released a study pegging the system somewhere between $252 billion and $3.6 trillion over the next 20 years. The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office, meanwhile, estimates a cost between $542 and $831 billion.
Where exactly the price tag lands depends on Guetlein’s yet-to-be-released blueprints. As AEI senior researcher Todd Harrison put it, “as long as its requirements are undefined, Golden Dome can cost as much or as little as policymakers are willing to spend.”

The ‘gold’ in Golden Dome is referencing the money the defense industry will make….has little to with the nation being safe.
We all should be scared of the direction of this nation….I know I aqm….
I’ve been on the Donald Trump beat full time since he declared for president in 2016. I’ve seen him scared many times — often while I was sitting just a few feet away from the carnage in a front row seat.
This is different. The government has shut down for the third time during a Trump presidency. Though Republicans also control the House and Senate — and GOP appointees hold a majority on the Supreme Court — Trump says the budget impasse is still the fault of the radical left and former President Joe Biden. In other words, Trump is a victim — at least according to Presidential Pep Secretary Karoline Leavitt.
The president wants to use American cities as training grounds for the U.S. military. ICE agents are spreading chaos, beating and detaining American citizens. Trump is talking about nuclear war, calling it the “N” word. He has Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the minister of plagues, spreading disinformation about health care. Christian Nationalists are engaged in an ongoing purge of anyone in government who doesn’t see things their way. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Trump’s dog of war, has instituted some of the most racist regulations seen in the military since it was integrated nearly 80 years ago.

Now for the really good stuff….Donny may have a coin with his demented image coming soon to a bank near you….
The United States Treasury on Friday shared early blueprints of a $1 commemorative coin featuring President Donald Trump’s visage and the words, “Fight, fight, fight.” The coin is being designed by the U.S. Mint in advance of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.
It is more about him than our country….but that is always been the case….
A draft design for a $1 coin featuring President Trump’s portrait has been confirmed by the US Treasury, following leaks online ahead of America’s 250th birthday next year. US Treasurer Brandon Beach responded to circulating images on X, writing, “No fake news here,” confirming the drafts are real but noting that further details would come after the government shutdown ends, per CNN. The design’s front shows a Trump profile, the terms “Liberty” and “In God We Trust,” and the years 1776 and 2026. The reverse features an image of Trump with a raised fist—referencing the Butler, Pennsylvania, assassination attempt against him—flanked by the phrase “FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT” and an American flag.
However, the coin’s future is unclear, due to US laws prohibiting the depiction of living presidents or those deceased for less than two years on coins. A law governing coin design more specifically states that “no head and shoulders portrait or bust of any person, living or dead, and no portrait of a living person may be included in the design on the reverse of specified coins.” The draft seems to skirt the rule by putting Trump’s side profile on the front and an action shot on the reverse, but it’s still not certain this would avoid a legal issue.
The rules around coins stretch back to an 1866 law that allowed only deceased individuals to be featured on US currency “to avoid the appearance that America was a monarchy,” per the New York Times. According to an archived Treasury page, that rule was put into place after “an uproar over the actions of the Chief of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, Spencer Clark,” who “placed himself on a five cent note and had a large quantity of them printed before it was noticed.”
Typical dictator shit…..I would think Donny would want it in gold plate to fit his inflated ego.
Now for the ‘religious’ portion of my post…..
Donny ‘spiritual’ adviser is a pedophile….
Pastor Robert Morris, who was a member of the Trump-Pence campaign’s spiritual advisory council in 2016, pleaded guilty on Thursday to five felony counts related to sexually assaulting a girl. The sexual abuse began when she was just 12 years old and continued for years. Morris will spend only six months in jail for his crimes, though he must also register as a sex offender and pay $250,000 in restitution, MSNBC reported.
Morris, the now 64-year-old former pastor of the Texas megachurch Gateway Church, pleaded guilty to lewd or indecent acts with a child. He first molested Cindy Clemishire while staying with her family on Christmas night 1982, when he was 20 years old. He told her to come into his room and lie on her back, then touched her breasts and under her panties.
It was the first of his many sexual assaults against her, but he warned Clemishire, “Never tell anyone about this because it will ruin everything.” He reportedly kept molesting her for five years and told his wife that he was “counseling” the child. Clemishire eventually told a close family friend, and the news reportedly caused the family’s circle of close friends to fall apart. Clemishire is now 55 years old.
Morris eventually founded Gateway Church in 2000 — the megachurch now has an estimated weekly attendance of 100,000. When Clemishire sought a settlement for the molestation in 2005, seeking $50,000 for the money she spent processing her childhood trauma in therapy, Morris’s attorney said the molestation was her fault because she was “flirtatious.”
Typical dirtbag….it was the child’s fault for being flirtatious….seriously she was 12 years old.
I am sure this piece of shit will continue as a ‘man of god’…..he is a PEDOPHILE and no amount of amount of words will change that.
That last story makes me feel dirty for reading it and I need a shower.
That Was The Week That Was in Donny-Land.
Have a good day and as always ….Be Well and Be Safe….
