It’s Monday…
Shitshow’s public schedule for…
Since this administration rarely explains what these events are actually about ahead of time, we’re left piecing it together ourselves. HHS already launched the new maternal health website, Moms.gov, on Mother’s Day, so today’s Oval Office “Maternal Healthcare Event” appears to mostly be an official announcement that the website exists.
Which is very on brand for this White House. Launch it Sunday, announce it Monday, act like nobody noticed the internet was already there.
HHS released the following statement:
On Mother’s Day, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services launched Moms.gov, a groundbreaking website for new and expecting mothers. This first-of-its-kind resource offers guidance and information to support the health and well-being of mothers and their families.
Moms.gov also supports expecting parents who are navigating difficult or unexpected pregnancies. It features information about pregnancy centers, Federally Qualified Health Centers, nutritional guidance, Trump Accounts, and other resources that allow maternal and infant health to thrive.
“This Mother’s Day, the Trump Administration is strengthening its commitment to America’s families by equipping mothers and fathers with the resources and information they need to build healthy, prosperous lives,” said HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. “Moms.gov delivers critical tools and support to help parents foster healthy pregnancies, strengthen young families, and create brighter futures for their children. This is how you Make America Healthy Again.”
“On Mother’s Day, we recognize that the health of mothers and the health of women are deeply connected” said Deputy Assistant Secretary for Women’s Health Dorothy Fink, MD. Through our Perinatal Improvement Collaborative [PDF], we have reduced maternal mortality by 41.5%. We remain committed to supporting women’s health throughout motherhood and at every stage of life,”
Moms.Gov is an easy-to-navigate platform that features information on:
HHS.gov. 05/10/2026.
- Support Services and Health Centers (Pregnancy Centers and FQHCs).
- Nutrition quick facts for mothers based on the Dietary Guideline for Americans.
- Trump Accounts.
- Trump Rx.
- Resources for women and parents.
- Preconception health.
- Breastfeeding.
- Mental health.
- Adoption.
To Make America Healthy Again means providing the chance for families to excel physically, mentally, and in their social and spiritual well-being. Moms.gov is an important new federal resource in support of that goal.

In fairness, the chances this event actually staying on topic are somewhere between slim and “why is he suddenly talking about dishwashers again?”
You can always tell when somebody finally delivers bad news to the Puddle. He simply cannot process it like a normal person. Instead, he starts meme-posting his way through the emotional damage by sharing anything that strokes the Puddle’s ego hard enough to drown out reality for a few hours.
It’s less “communications strategy” and more “grandpa discovered the repost button during a hostage situation.”
He also randomly posts things like this:
or this:
His meltdowns usually include a novel or three…

I “Love” Justice Neil Gorsuch! He’s a really smart and good man, but he voted against me, and our Country, on Tariffs, a devastating move. How do I reconcile this? So bad, and hurtful to our Country.
I have, likewise, always liked and respected Amy Coney Barrett, but the same thing with her. They were appointed by me, and yet have hurt our Country so badly! I do not believe they meant to do so, but their decision on Tariffs cost the United States 159 Billion Dollars that we have to pay back to enemies, and people, companies, and Countries, that have been ripping us off for years. It’s hardly believable!
They could have solved that situation with a “tiny” sentence, “Any money paid by others to the United States does not have to be paid back.” Why wouldn’t they have done so?
[Narrator: That sentence would have been false. Foreign countries do not pay the tariffs].
With certain Republican Nominated Justices that we have on the Supreme Court, the Democrats don’t really need to “PACK THE COURT” any longer. In fact, I should be the one wanting to PACK THE COURT!
I’m working so hard to, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, and then people that I appointed have shown so little respect to our Country, and its people. What is the reason for this? They have to do the right thing, but it’s really OK for them to be loyal to the person that appointed them to “almost” the highest position in the land, that is, a Justice of the United States Supreme Court.
[Narrator: The loyalty should be to the constitution not the person that appointed them].
Democrat Justices always remain true to the people that honored them for that very special Nomination. They don’t waver, no matter how good or bad a case may be, but Republican Justices often go out of their way to oppose me, because they want to show how “independent” or, “above it all,” they are.
I got elected in a Landslide, including winning the Popular Vote, all seven Swing States, an Electoral College “clobbering,” and all U.S. Counties, by 86%, 2,750 to 525.
I choose people to help our Country, not to hurt it, and now, based on what I witnessed recently by being the first President in History to attend a Supreme Court session (Which fact was not even recognized or acknowledged, out of respect for the position of President, by the Court — Something which did not go unnoticed by the Fake News Media!), they will be ruling against us on Birthright Citizenship, making us the only Country in the World that practices this unsustainable, unsafe, and incredibly costly DISASTER.
[Narrator: They should rule against him. An Executive Order should never, ever, regardless of who’s president, be allowed to remove a constitutionally protected right.]
I don’t want loyalty, but I do want and expect it for our Country.
Yes, I have another way of doing Tariffs, but it is far slower, and more laborious than what was just determined, in a close decision, to be “illegal” or “unconstitutional,” with three powerful, and highly accurate, dissents!
Well, maybe Neil, and Amy, just had a really bad day, but our Country can only handle so many decisions of that magnitude before it breaks down, and cracks!!!
Sometimes decisions have to be allowed to use Good, Strong, Common Sense as a guide. A negative ruling on Birthright Citizenship, on top of the recent Supreme Court Tariff catastrophe, is not Economically sustainable for the United States of America!
President DONALD J. TRUMP
I hope he steps on legos. 05/11/2026.
And no meltdown would be complete without him melting down during an Oval Office event…
Loyalty to Puddle is the most important thing to Puddle.
As Puddle catches a nap Dr. Oz, says “we will have more Trump babies”.
Narrator: People can’t afford babies.
As the Puddle struggles to find rem sleep, RFK explains that teenagers today have less sperm than men in the 1970’s.
Narrator: How would we knew that teenage boys have less sperm. Who’s testing their sperm?
Outside of his meltdowns, Puddle spoke with CBS about suspending the federal gas tax while his war of choice continues.
President Trump told CBS News on Monday that he intends to suspend the federal gas tax "for a period of time" and phase it back in "when gas goes down."

The president made the comments in a phone interview with CBS News chief White House correspondent @nancycordes. Suspending… pic.twitter.com/6jmAsmzoNX
The rest of the tweet says: Suspending the excise taxes — 18.4 cents per gallon on gas and 24.4 cents a gallon on diesel — requires an act of Congress. Congress has so far shown little interest in suspending it to bring down costs. Gas prices have soared over 50% since the start of the Iran war on Feb. 28, hitting a high of over $4.52 on Sunday, according to AAA. https://cbsn.ws/3Rxqk80
As result of his remarks about the gas tax repeal oil prices spiked.
Gas Buddy Guy:
there has been talk about waiving the 18.4c/gal (gasoline) federal tax on gasoline and 24.3c/gal on diesel- these taxes also have not increased since 1993. If the fed tax on gasoline is waived, it would cost the government $2.1 billion in lost revenue per month.

PS.
I’m sorry this was delayed. I woke up this morning with a sharp stupid pain in the bottom of my foot. It took awhile for me to be able to ignore it enough to get the post finished.
PSS.
