Trump's Second Term

He's completely mad!
Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump
Publicity seeking President Emmanuel Macron, of France, mistakenly said that I left the G7 Summit, in Canada, to go back to D.C. to work on a "cease fire" between Israel and Iran. Wrong! He has no idea why I am now on my way to Washington...
"...and neither do I."
 

‘It Didn’t Rain at All’: Trump Complains About Weather Forecasters Ruining His Parade​

Donald Trump is blaming weather forecasters for the flop of his $45 million military parade in Washington, D.C., which saw low turnout and a storm of mockery online.

“It was a tremendous success with a fantastic audience. It was supposed to rain. They gave it a 100% chance of rain — and it didn’t rain at all. It was beautiful,” Trump told Fox News. “They didn’t do too well, the weather people, last night.”

But the clouds rolled in anyway. Drizzle and thick skies canceled several planned flyovers. And photos from the Washington Monument showed a thin crowd, despite the price tag and buildup.

Noem-led dept 'spending like drunken sailors' as report says Trump agency is $1 billion over budget

Although President Donald Trump’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency is deporting people at a slower pace than President Joe Biden did last year, ICE, under the direction of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, is reportedly $1 billion over budget—even as Trump on Sunday issued a new order directing the agency to carry out “the largest Mass Deportation Program in History.”

Even before that order, Trump’s “immigration crackdown” has been “burning through cash so quickly that the agency charged with arresting, detaining and removing unauthorized immigrants could run out of money next month,” Axios reported on Monday. ICE “is already $1 billion over budget by one estimate, with more than three months left in the fiscal year."

“Trump’s DHS is spending like drunken sailors,” U.S. Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) told the news outlet. “They are spending likely in the neighborhood of a billion dollars more at ICE than we authorized, and that’s patently illegal.”

But one former federal budget official told Axios, “I have a feeling they’re going to grant themselves an exception apportionment, use the life and safety exception, and just keep burning money.”
