    There was some article not to long ago about someone interacting with Trump and he basically just bounces from random topic to topic like a dementia patient. He would talk about the Iran war then randomly ask an aid about Greenland then back to Iran or something. Hes talking about it sounds like.

    Well, I'm happy to hear Operation Fucking Stupid has concluded and now we're into Operation Fucking Pointless.

    Unrelated note, I hear conservatives hate wasting taxpayer money and really like small, limited government.

    I just randomly thought of that for no particular reason.

    conservatives love national security though, which is why the ballroom is being paid for by private donations but also a billion dollars in taxpayer funds

    Hegseth did mention that they are two different operations. Not to defend the guy, but he was very clear on that.

    I think the point is that A) these operation names are ridiculous and juvenile and B) this entire war, or whatever they’re calling it now, is ridiculous and juvenile

    Yes, which was my point. Who on the right cares about congressional approval, when you just continue a war, but have ol’ Dumper blast out a social media post proclaiming it over in 59 days and renamed to something different?

    Absolutely. This is the same shenanigans we pulled with Korea and Vietnam. Neither of those actions were ever declared wars even though they clearly were, and are referred to as such today.

    In Epstein news, they released the alleged Epstein suicide note, and the way it reads is interesting. The only thing missing is “thank you for your attention on this matter!”
