Well... it's Trump... again. #47, here we go.

So Trump went to the Federal Reserve to intimidate Fed Chair Jerome Powell. On camera with Powell at his side, Trump started talking about cost overruns on the building renovations saying costs have increased to more than three billion. Powell said no, it hasn't increased and it is still the original cost estimate. Powell looked at the piece of paper trump was using for his statement. Powell said yes, that's the Fed estimate but the amount you are using includes the cost of a building that was completed five years ago.

:boom:
I love the understated, relaxed expression Powell kept on his face. That said everything. The way he carefully put on his glasses and fixed his eyes on the paper, and how it took him a single beat to find the lie that he expected. The way he stated his correction and left Trump angrily trying to maintain his lie. This needs to happen more often, although, even as I say this, I realize the fan base won't see it and if they see it, they won't get it. BUT...Trump's approvals are now just under 40% (one poll has it as a stark 37%), indicating that the mysterious "independent" voters are tired of Presidential schtick.
 
Epilogue to Trump/Unabomber Lie
Here's how Karoline Leavitt addressed the question, after a reporter summarized Trump's story and noted that Kaczynski never attended MIT, and that he was not identified as the Unabomber until 11 years after Prof. John Trump's death. Of course Leavitt expressed contempt for the reporter, but her ridiculous answer also signals contempt for the country.

Leavitt: "Andrew, with so many issues going on in the world, I'm a little bit surprised you would ask such a question, although I'm not, sometimes, coming from you. But I'm willing to give you an answer, nevertheless.
"The President's uncle did in fact teach at MIT. <as if that was the controversy!> He was a very intelligent professor. The President's very proud of his family. In fact, I have a-- the President has a -- letter from his uncle on the MIT letterhead that sits in the Oval Office dining room. Maybe we'll let you see it sometime."

Leavitt should be glad there's no hell, because she'd have a condo ready for her occupancy in the 8th circle.

Some "oldies but goodies" ::--

Everybody knows that Trump is a very poor reader, but this video demonstrates that he is UNABLE to read a brief type-written paragraph (from King Charles III) which he has not rehearsed. And another /URL]video shows that and other evidence of severe reading problems. He loves Tom Wolfe but can't name any of his novels. He loves the Bible but can't mention a single line or story.

The "God made Trump" video has got to be just satire, right? Yet Trump reposted it to Truth Social.

No wonder you can't tell if it is satire. That vid is dishonest.
They faided away the Rump avatar so you don't know how much of it he actualy posted to TS.
It delibretly blured the point where "god made Trump" ended and the anti-trump vid begins.
It is obvious Rump did not tweet that whole 8 minute vid.
Watch the truth social post. Not the youtube vid.
 

Ever hear of a "Sore Winner"?
tRump wants to prosecute Beyonce' for imaginary campaign payment.
 
President Trump makes no secret of his displeasure over the cost of renovating the Federal Reserve headquarters — around $2.5 billion, or even higher by the president’s accounting.

But getting the White House to discuss another of Washington’s expensive renovation projects, the cost of refurbishing a “free” Air Force One from Qatar, is quite another matter.

Officially, and conveniently, the price tag has been classified. But even by Washington standards, where “black budgets” are often used as an excuse to avoid revealing the cost of outdated spy satellites and lavish end-of-year parties, the techniques being used to hide the cost of Mr. Trump’s pet project are inventive.

Which may explain why no one wants to discuss a mysterious, $934 million transfer of funds from one of the Pentagon’s most over-budget, out-of-control projects — the modernization of America’s aging, ground-based nuclear missiles.

In recent weeks, congressional budget sleuths have come to think that amount, slipped into an obscure Pentagon document sent to Capitol Hill as a “transfer” to an unnamed classified project, almost certainly includes the renovation of the new, gold-adorned Air Force One that Mr. Trump desperately wants in the air before his term is over. (It is not clear if the entire transfer will be devoted to stripping the new Air Force One back to its airframe, but Air Force officials privately acknowledge dipping into nuclear modernization funds for the complex project.)
 
Trump missed out on the privilege.


Clinton was on Epstein planes for at least 17 flights in 2002-03 after he left office in 2001.

The former president went to some exotic places aboard those flights — Siberia, Morocco, China and Armenia, to name a few — with some famous people such as actor Kevin Spacey and comedian Chris Tucker. News reports said Spacey and Tucker flew to help the Clinton Foundation with its battle against AIDS.

Epstein lent his plane to a lot of big people in all sorts of backgrounds. I assume to ingratiate himself with them and to look like "good guy".
 
I begin to wonder if some pharaonic inscriptions were viewed similarly by contemporaries...
