A Republic, If You Can Keep It

Maybe Trump’s big thing was this.

The man imposing tariffs on Apple releases his own competing service. No conflict of interest here…right?

Knowing how things usually go with Trump, this is going to be a rebadged $150-200 Android phone made in China with ancient silicon.

I’ll buy it if it comes with all those AND some trump vodka!

Always the mark of good alcohol when the maker doesn’t drink.

I’m curious under what authority ICE arrests and detains a citizen.

Some key quotes tell the real story. Operative word here is “can”:
“Eventually, all the phones can be built in the United States of America,” Eric Trump said on “The Benny Show” podcast on Monday"

Operative word here is “miracle”:
“Technology experts have questioned what the Trump Organization’s “built in the United States” claim about its handsets means and argued it is probably not currently possible to manufacture smartphones from scratch in the US. “They don’t even have a working prototype. It’s extremely unlikely. You would have to have a miracle. You would need to have economies of scale. You would need to have sustainable demand for this kind of product,” said Prof Tinglong Dai, who teaches operations management at Johns Hopkins’ Carey Business School.”

Both from the BBC:

Either they have a nuke, or Yordan is returning to the lineup.

Trump says “We” have total control of Iranian skies. So they were lying again about US involvement?

That means that the world is in Deep Dutch!!

Or Trump is going to tell the truth about something.

If you can stomach this, it’s worth a watch. Cruz completely face plants in this interview with Carlson, and blurts out classified information about the U.S.’ (probably illegal) role in Israel’s attacks on Iran.

“Squeaky McTanktread”. :clap::clap::clap:

Trump put a day drunk in charge of his birthday parade and didn’t like what he got.

If he’s mad that soldiers were enjoying themselves, then it wasn’t really about celebrating the military…right?

North Korean soldiers never smile.

“Apparently, there was a phone call, and he said to Hegseth, the tone was all wrong. Why was the tone wrong? Who staged this? There was the tone problem. Trump, he keeps repeating himself.”

“You’re talking to my guy all wrong. It’s the wrong tone. Do it again, and I’ll stab you in the face with a soldering iron”. - Clem Doore

You know who suffers from Iran having all their military shit blown up and their leaders assassinated? It’s no coincidence Tucker is against this openly.

Yeah, but is it likely anyone being criticized has the stones to state the obvious?

I didn’t watch the parade, but read that CCR’s Fortunate Son was played during the parade -Fact Check: 'Fortunate Son,' a song about draft dodging, was played at Trump's military parade

Looks like the Army may be trying to tell the public something.

Fortunately propping up a regime in Iran has never had adverse consequences for the US.
