It’s Wednesday…

President Shitshow’s public schedule for…

You can find his schedule for Wednesday, 06/25/2025, here.

The President is still overseas, returning sometime this evening.

President Big Mad is fuming that the American public isn’t tripping over itself to shower him with praise for his big, bold strike on Iran. Meanwhile, His Royal Delusion, King Trump, is currently outraged that CNN and The New York Times had the audacity to report the obvious: that his attacks barely made a dent in Iran’s nuclear facilities, let alone “obliterated” them.

CNN (06/24/2025):

Two of the people familiar with the assessment said Iran’s stockpile of enriched uranium was not destroyed. One of the people said the centrifuges are largely “intact.” Another source said that the intelligence assessed enriched uranium was moved out of the sites prior to the US strikes.

“So the (DIA) assessment is that the US set them back maybe a few months, tops,” this person added.

The White House acknowledged the existence of the assessment but said they disagreed with it.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told CNN in a statement: “This alleged assessment is flat-out wrong and was classified as ‘top secret’ but was still leaked to CNN by an anonymous, low-level loser in the intelligence community. The leaking of this alleged assessment is a clear attempt to demean President Trump, and discredit the brave fighter pilots who conducted a perfectly executed mission to obliterate Iran’s nuclear program. Everyone knows what happens when you drop fourteen 30,000 pound bombs perfectly on their targets: total obliteration.”

CNN (06/24/2025).

New York Times (06/24/2025–gift link):

The initial damage assessment suggests that President Trump’s claim that Iran’s nuclear facilities were “obliterated” was overstated. Congress had been set to be briefed on the strike on Tuesday, and lawmakers were expected to ask about the findings, but the session was postponed. Senators are now set be briefed on Thursday, and House members on Friday.

Since the strikes, Mr. Trump has complained to advisers repeatedly about news reports that have questioned how much damage was done, said people with knowledge of the comments. He has also closely watched the public statements of other officials when they are asked about the damage to the nuclear facilities, they said.

In a statement on Tuesday, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth reiterated Mr. Trump’s early assessment.

“Based on everything we have seen — and I’ve seen it all — our bombing campaign obliterated Iran’s ability to create nuclear weapons,” he said. “Our massive bombs hit exactly the right spot at each target and worked perfectly.”

Officials cautioned that the five-page classified report was only an initial assessment, and that others would follow as more information was collected and as Iran examined the three sites. One official said that the reports people in the administration had been shown were “mixed” but that more assessments were yet to be done.

New York Times (06/24/2025–gift link).

Cult member Rep. Mike Turner of Ohio popped up on CNN to run defense for the Trump administration, declaring with his full “yes, I drink the Kool-Aid daily” chest that no one ever said Iran’s nuclear program was “obliterated.” Except, you know… everyone did.

Sure, Jan. Nobody said “obliterated.” Just the headlines, press briefings, and half the cabinet. Must’ve been a really loud typo.

President Felon’s NATO presser was a catastrophic meltdown so spectacular it made dumpster fires look like cozy campfires — a clueless drunk uncle and a malfunctioning robot teamed up to redefine embarrassment on a global stage

Here it is in clips.

He says it’s “very hard”–Iran also knew we “were coming”.

“Secretary of War”…

FYI: The National security of Act of 1947 established the National Military Establishment (NME); two years later it was renamed the Department of Defense. Prior to 1947, the Department of War, the Navy, and Air Force were each separate.

“Fake News CNN”

“They (Iran) just had a war”.

He attacks the media telling them we should be proud of the service members who dropped the bombs in Iran.

Show more =’s They’re sick. There’s something wrong with them. You know what? You should be praising those people instead of trying to find some by getting me by trying to go and get me. You’re hurting those people.

The pilots called him “devastated” that the media was saying their attack wasn’t “successful”.

Narrator: Nobody is attacking the pilots. The assessment’s are normal following military strikes, to determine if they were as successful as the admin is saying.

Nothing says ‘global leadership’ quite like a NATO Secretary cooing ‘Daddy’ and a president dutifully grinning, Yes, I’m your Daddy! Now fetch me more praise—and maybe a booster seat for NATO while you’re at it.

I’m running really late, but I’d like to point out something. Yesterday, Zohran Mamdani, won the Democratic primary for New York Mayor. Now, I have no dog in this fight as I live in California, not New York. My points aren’t to “defend” his policies, as I don’t really know them. My point is to share how White Nationalist that hate to be called racists reacted to his winning of the primary.

Matt Walsh…

Show more =’s They want their communities to be destroyed. And they will get what they ask for. So be it.

Nazi Miller…

Charlie Kirk…

FYI the terrorists responsible for 9/11 came from San Diego, Ca. Not New York. They entered legally, legally took flight training classes, and then commented a horrible attack on our country. Fuck Charlie Kirk for trying to use 9/11 as a vehicle to further racism and to attack legal migrants.

He came to the US at the age of 7.

Aside from confirming they are racists, the bigger point here; they want no migration at all. Because they fear how that migrant might vote. It’s really that simple.

Again, this isn’t about his politics, I honestly have no opinion on his policies, since again, I live in California…
