In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the Donald Trump Administration and Presidency.
This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.

Once again Lloyds bank is mired in scandal along with Santander bank . Iran used UK bank accounts to evade Western sanctions.
There is no way UK intelligence services ( MI5, MI6) weren’t aware of these banks allowing the Iranian regime to break the US led sanctions. This explains why President Trump is so annoyed with Starmer. The UK Gov has stabbed the US in the back.
Will bank executives be arrested ?

No. More multi day training conventions paid for with bank depositor funds as business expense.
…you got to be kidding…banksters one of those who rule world -City of London- going get arrested……????

STATES MOVE TO SAVE THE VOTE *
Dear Mr. President,
It appears that some individual states { 4 SO FAR} have taken the hint. If the Senate won’t act to secure elections, states can and do act to do it themselves. Now THAT is how States Rights are supposed to work.! Not everybody is against common sense.
Invigorating! THANK YOU FOR YOUR LEADERSHIP IN THIS MATTER!

Unfortunately, the states who will do the things to fix their elections aren’t the states that need the reforms.
That has always been the case. For example: New York was an anti-freedom British sympathizer before we WERE states.
According to the excellent and exhaustive research that future Minnesota Governor Mike Lindell {my prayer, at least} has done, all 50 states are in some level of turmoil concerning elections. Any forward motion is better than none.
We must take courage in the fact that President Trump was elected by voters in states where corruption prevails.
Happy 250th Birthday to you!
Is that the trade off for the ‘dignity act’?
The dignity act is extremely disrespectful to American citizens.
the house rinos are just helping to ensure the GOP base is so thoroughly disgusted with the GOP that they stay home in Nov. The GOP senate is doing a great job of that on their own, but the GOP house rinos needed to get in on the action. This is about enuring 2026 to 2028 is exactly like 2018 to 2020 for Trump.
For people that still don’t get it: the GOP hates Trump way more than the democrats do. They hate Trump in the same way these islamists hate jews. Many in the GOP would celebrate Trump’s death. It’s that bad.
My state (Wisconsin) already did voter picture ID by referendum April 1st 2025.
Trump ran on exposing and fixing the massive fraud and cleaning-up our election system. The SAVE act is a very small first step, but most of this is law enforcement. You don’t generate tens of millions of illegal ballots and tabulations without breaking many, many laws. We’re not talking about a vote here and there across 150M counted. We are talking about tens of millions of votes.
We always hear from the apologists on the right that “they’re working on it”. OK, but the clock is ticking and the midterms early voting starts in under 7 months. Someone needs to get crackin’.
BTW: the person that was on-point for all of this has been politicking for a promotion from Trump. I got a better idea. How about making Ms Dhillion actually complete something (anything) successfully before you promote her. She boogered-up AZ and GA, among other efforts, and seems to be good at Fox News appearances, but not much else.
States that do not ensure the integrity of their voters should not be included in federal elections. It deletes the lawful votes.
California Globe: Sacramento Dems Amend AB 2727: Serial Rapists and Child Predators Now Eligible for Parole at 65 yo.
Amended bill delivers far weaker protections than originally promised
Do we all feel safer from a pedophile simply by waiting til he’s 65?

Never heard of a 65+ old pedophile with previous offense’s /sarc.
Yep, they used to put them in gen pop and the problem fixed itself. I know in my state now they separate them in their own cell block. Sickos learning from sickos.
Off-Handed assessment:
Keeping them longer cuts into the kick-back bonanza. After a certain age, they cost more to keep alive than the income they generate occupying a cell for purposes of government funding. Plenty of younger ones to take their places, so no interruption of cash-flow.
Happy 250th Birthday to you!!
When I worked in correctional health care, we had one who was over 65 ….and died in the jail…
O’s Secretary of Energy is in the brig. Selling Nuklr (Bush pronunciation) secrets to Chinaa (Trump pronunciation).
Totally not shocked given the makeup of the entire cabinet of zero.

I am pretty sure the description of how a 78 yr old man was treated is not true. I also find no other confirmation of this arrest on any other site except the one you linked and another known for fake stuff.
I will wait to see if this percolates to actual news sites.
Probably not much substance there, but the entire cabinet was chock full of vipers.

For the record.
Ignore the noise. We just watched history unfold with Operation Epic Fury; the eventual peace dividend will rhyme with the end of the Cold War, whether the doom chorus likes it or not. The real question is: why do so many on Wall Street, and the self-styled experts drowning in social media vanity, seem to root for America’s decline?
They parrot the narrative that the U.S. and the dollar are relics of a bygone empire, as if decay were destiny. These people worship the bureaucratic mausoleum of the EU and the authoritarian mirage of China, mistaking submission for sophistication. Their whole strategy is to sound grim and pedantic, mistaking pessimism for intellect, because talking down the future is the easiest way to impersonate insight.

Investors are sleepwalking into the biggest repricing of the modern era. When Trump says “WORLD’S MOST POWERFUL RESET,” he isn’t talking rhetoric, he’s signaling a shift in capital flows, risk premiums, energy policy, and global power structures that Wall Street has barely begun to price in. The playbook is about to be rewritten, and most portfolios aren’t ready.

Important reading from BioClandestine.
BioClandestine is correct!…BioClandestine:
To all the shills, doomers, and naysayers out there, you must understand, that you are fighting a rigged battle.
You cannot win.
Things are in motion that are far beyond your comprehension.
Our victory is already decided, and no amount of resistance is going to stop it.
Now, it’s not too late to correct course, but for those who still wish to oppose MAGA, you will continue to lose. It would behoove you to recognize this sooner than later, because you have no path to victory.
This is not a guess. This is not a prediction. The outcome has already been decided by those who hold all the cards.
Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
I’ve had many organizations and individuals approach me over the years, trying to recruit me.
I declined them all, because something didn’t feel right.
In retrospect, it appears my instincts were correct.
Nefarious entities were buying up the influencers to control them.
This happened :
A U.S. Navy MQ-4C Triton surveillance drone disappeared abruptly and unexpectedly from online flight tracking sites after declaring an in-flight emergency while flying over the Persian Gulf today.
Is this related to the Changed code?
Squawk 7400 – UK Introduces New Drone Code. Not adopted worldwide
The UK is not starting from scratch here. The United States FAA in fact authorized the use of 7400 already in 2016. For US-operated UAS flying under FAA jurisdiction, 7400 has therefore been the expected lost-link squawk for nearly a decade. The code hasn’t been officially recognized by the ICAO yet. Europe’s EASA updated its Standardised European Rules of the Air (SERA) in 2025 and introduced a new code (7601). That covers radio communication failure in crewed aircraft, but so far anything similar for drones losing contact with its master has failed to materialize.
“As it isn’t globally recognized yet, you will not see UAS squawking 7400 on Flightradar24 at this time” .
Who knows what the future holds?
Navy MQ-4C Triton’s Fate Unknown After Disappearing From Flight Tracking Over Persian Gulf
Tracking data shows the MQ-4C rapidly losing altitude after declaring an unspecified in-flight emergency.
Online flight tracking data shows the MQ-4C had just completed a roughly three-hour-long flight over the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz and appeared to be returning to base at Naval Air Station Sigonella in Italy. The online tracking shows the Triton had just crossed into Saudi Arabian airspace before making a sudden turn to the northeast in the direction of Iran. Available data also shows the drone rapidly descended from a typical cruising altitude of around 50,000 feet down to below 10,000 feet.
The MQ-4C’s transponder was broadcasting (or “squawking”) the code 7700, which is a general declaration of an in-flight emergency, at the time. The code, by itself, does not offer any indication of what that the emergency might be or how serious the situation is. There are also unconfirmed reports that the Triton initially sent out another code, 7400, which is used to declare a loss of connectivity between a drone and its controllers on the ground.

BREAKING: Abdirashid Said, a suspect in a massive $11M Medicaid fraud scheme, has fled the country just days before his hearing.
Said posted a $150K unconditional bond, and was allowed to keep his passport.
Now he’s gone. Thanks to Tim Walz’s soft on crime courts.
