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.

With the President bringing the World Cup to America and the resulting large home crowds, the US beats the Ozzies 2-0 to guarantee they advance to the next round by going 2-0 in matches.

A man has reportedly been ARRESTED for CUTTING President Trump’s new American flag blue sealant and RIPPING it off the Lincoln Reflecting Pool
Wow. Leftists are SABOTAGING beauty!
They WANT the Reflecting Pool to look filthy. Utter DISGRACE.

CNN was showing pictures of the actual lining supposedly just coming off. Maybe it’s CNN. They were showing it in their hands. On Yahoo news. Where are the cameras?
It’s CNN – what do you expect? 🙂

Wonder why Dims are so determined to erase history…
But according to Whoopie, it’s the White House, erasing BLACK History.
Same reason they deny existence of God.

The Obamausoleum opens
A fitting tribute to an unfit man
The Obama building is a thing of ugly. Oliver Wainwright of the Guardian wrote, “Behold the $850 million Obamalisk—or, as it sometimes feels morbidly like, the Obamausoleum.
He also wrote:
“We had the idea of a beacon,” says architect Billie Tsien, whose practice, Tod Williams Billie Tsien Architects, won the design competition for the Obama Presidential Center in 2016, on the eve of the first Trump presidency. “We thought of four hands coming together,” she adds, holding her cupped hands up against a colleague’s, as if protecting a flame from the wind.
Above us, sheer walls of granite erupt from the ground at a steep angle, before tapering to form a chiseled 70-metre-high monolith. It looks hewn and cleft, towering over the 19-acre campus like a stocky, truncated obelisk. Rising above the low-rise, low-income neighborhood, the building has an ominous presence, its mostly windowless heft recalling a menacing sci-fi headquarters, with small chamfered openings suggesting portals from where drones might be launched, or lasers fired. Some have compared it to a flak tower, others to a “Klingon prison”. If it is a beacon of hope, it seems to be one that has been fortified at all costs against the present regime, a defensive bunker to protect its fragile values from siege.
That is from the left.

“All of the critics are correct, but the Obama Presidential Center is perfect. I cannot think of a more fitting tribute to the man elected president because of the color of his skin and not the content of his character.”
A man selected resident because of the lies he is always willing to tell.
“The Biden library is going slower than a turtle riding a snail through a school zone.”
Those builders are only building according to the resident who couldn’t find his way home if he had to.
Quick question: Who is “Dubes” that Sundance referenced yesterday in his password thread?
Thanks
A good person…. I think he’s a lawyer.
Obama’s looks like an outhouse next to Trump’s.
I like it! 😍😁😊😃😎
You got it exactly right! (Except if you wanted to add something, you could sketch in an overflow… ). 😀

The Obama Library is difficult to describe. Maybe a squarish R2-D2?

This in a deep blue city…afraid of their own radicals?
Today, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit issued a preliminary injunction blocking the enforcement of key provisions of Assembly Bill 1955 (the “Gender Secrecy Law”), which had prohibited schools from notifying parents if a student was “gender confused.” This decision followed the U.S. Supreme Court’s March 2, 2026, ruling in Mirabelli v. Bonta, which held that California’s policies likely violated parents’ Free Exercise and Due Process rights by preventing them from learning about their children’s gender identity at school.
The Ninth Circuit panel, in City of Huntington Beach v. Gavin Newsom, reversed its earlier stance from January 2026, stating that AB 1955 “forbids the mandatory policies that the Constitution requires” under the Supreme Court’s precedent. The injunction was granted on behalf of parent-plaintiffs represented by the Thomas More Society, who argued that the law interfered with their fundamental right to direct the upbringing and religious education of their children. While the Ninth Circuit enjoined the state law, California continues to appeal the underlying district court judgment in the case.

Other than the barbwire fence at the border to keep the population in, the rest of it is neither surprising or unknown – but it still paints a horrible picture of what Ukraine has become. It’s one of the few things I disagree with the President over – continued support for the evil little demon.

On the flip side – 17 million dead globally due to the mRNA shots. New study. 1 in every 800 dead. For the elderly – 1 in 20. Still on the market and pushed by big pharma.

A bit from Tulsi’s data releases…
I’m sick to my freaking stomach reading Tulsi Gabbard’s declassified bombshells. They laid out the entire treasonous plot: weaponizing the Zelensky phone call to impeach Trump, with Rudy Giuliani squarely in their crosshairs next.
This wasn’t politics—it was a straight-up coup by corrupt deep state actors to overthrow the will of the American people.
These people belong in prison for this shit.
Yeah yeah. Wake me up when someone is arrested for any of this. And if no one is arrested, then it will happen again. Not enforcing the law is tantamount to legalising this behaviour. I guess the FBI and DOJ have only had 18 months to collect evidence etc. I’m sure they will be ready to arrest people and bring cases just when the next Democrat President takes office in 2032 and gives immunity to everyone involved who is still alive. It’s not like they don’t have lots of evidence. SMH 🤦
Another hit on the mRNA shot – this one dealing with infants…
A study analyzing 2,605 VAERS reports found that 78% of infant deaths occurred within 7 days of vaccination. The journal that published it just retracted it, and the author says all eight objections came from a single person, he answered every one of them, and the journal stopped responding.
@SecKennedy is now demanding answers from the editor-in-chief of Toxicology Reports, including the full internal analysis behind the retraction decision, the names of experts consulted and any conflicts of interest, and an explanation of why the journal chose full removal over a retraction with an expression of concern.
The author isn’t the only one. Epidemiologist @NicHulscher says his MMR study finding hundreds of sudden infant deaths shortly after vaccination was also deleted from the same journal.

Trump has failed dismally in Iran. Once again ridiculous US strategic political leadership has failed to capitalise on the great work of the US military.
The terms of the deal are irrelevant because two things are clear – 1. Iran never intended to comply with the deal – it will start with small breaches, like it already has – blaming technical issues like it did during the negotiations and previous ceasefires. Trump did nothing about previous breaches, so Iran reckons they have got Trump’s number.
Point 2 is that Trump is so invested in this deal that he will do nothing about Iran’s non compliance with the deal and Iran knows it. Trump’s signature on this paper is worthless. He has totally beclowned himself at the hands of the Mullahs. His repeated unwillingness to punish Iran’s transgressions during every ceasefire has led the Iranians to believe he will do nothing about their failure to comply.
Luckily the damage caused by the US military means the Iranians have got years and probably decades to get back to where they were 6 months ago with their nuclear and missile capability. Iran knows Trump will do nothing about non compliance because this is exactly what happened with the Gaza Hamas deal. Has Hamas disarmed yet as required by the deal? No. Has Trump done anything about Hamas non compliance? No. That is why Iran is happy to sign a deal because they know they won’t keep the deal and Trump won’t enforce it.
The worst aspect of the deal is Trump publicly throwing the only fully fledged fighting ally it had in this war, Israel, under the bus to keep the Iranians happy. Regardless of your view of Israel, every other potential military partner will ask why it would fight alongside the USA that behaves like this to the countries who fight alongside it?
Trump has seriously damaged his international credibility over this idiotic agreement which seems to impose Iran’s will on the USA and the Middle East rather than the other way around. Trump could try to rescue his international credibility by immediately re-imposing their blockade on Iran. But he won’t do that. Trump will lose his remaining international credibility if he lets Iran break the deal without consequence.
The US military got what was vitally necessary early on when it successfully destroyed 40 years of painstakingly developed Iranian nuclear and ballistic missile infrastructure and human capital. That can’t be replaced any time soon. But along the way Trump trashed just about every international relationship it had in the West. Asking why the allies weren’t contributing after saying they had nothing to offer and that they weren’t needed. No one likes being called out publicly and the Europeans won’t forget. Now even former friends, like Meloni are publicly rebuking Trump. The Europeans have always disliked but respected Trump, now they hate him and no longer respect him.
Trump has greatly diminished his international standing through the worst deal he has ever done – the idiotic and entirely unnecessary deal with Iran.
Not everyone thinks like you do. https://truthsocial.com/@jimblohm/116768226335506715
Blohm says the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and expecting different results. As I said, Iran has broken every agreement and the US, including under Trump, has failed to enforce the agreements. So the insanity is continuing to do the same thing – sign agreements Iran doesn’t honour and that the US won’t enforce. Iran keeps doing this because it works for them and they are allowed to do it.
Im not arguing for boots on the ground, just re applying the blockade. Everytime Trump has had Iran or its proxies on the ropes he rings the bell and lets them regain their breath and survive. That’s what he did with Iran and that’s what he did with Hamas. I’m saying stop doing the same thing. Make your agreement credible by imposing consequences on the deal breaker. If you are not willing to do that then you will lose all credibility.
That’s because he’s thinking of the Iranian people and not just the radical mullahs who run the country.
Trump can’t pick up a weapon and fight for the Iranian people, but he can weaken the leadership to help them rise up.
And who’s to say reapplying the blockade is not on the table? I’m sure it is, as well as maybe taking Kharg island. So stop hyperventilating and give this thing a chance.
A MOU is just that, not a peace treaty. It is a grace period.
Trump probably told the Iranians that a blockade was back on the table or maybe he said Kharg island was about to be US territory. Why else did the Iranians sign the MOU.
So what, if they renege then more bombs will drop further devastating their military, infrastructure and economy.
Iran has no cards left to play.
Your take on Israel is ridiculous. Our military sacrificed greatly to assure Iran was no longer a nuclear threat. This benefits Israel much more than it does us.
The reason Israel will fight alongside the USA is because they are capable and they are funded primarily by us. And Iran is a direct threat to Israel and was a potential nuclear weapon away from causing untold devastation to Israel and ultimately destabilizing the entire region. I’m traditionally an Israel supporter and believe they are an ally of the US being the only Democracy in the Middle East, but throwing them under the bus is quite a reach considering what the USA has provided militarily to the fight as well as diplomatically with the Abraham accords. Last I checked almost every nation in the Middle East was fully supporting the US and their position toward Iran.
His international reputation was already poor. If you’ve done any travel around the world recently, you’d know that we are a laughingstock, especially in Europe.
The Iran deal was the real clincher.
Maybe in leftist circles that you are so familiar with…meanwhile most sane Europeans love him and wish he was their leader.
Trolling much lately.
Europe, which I deduce you mean western Europe, is a complete lost cause.
Talk about laughingstocks, they are almost all Communist countries now who have imported folks who never held western values. Just about every western European country censors their citizen’s speech. They no longer hold our values and they are no longer our allies.
I will rejoice the day Trump leaves NATO.
Maybe you ought to pay more attention to real life and what visitors for the World Cup think of the United States. They even say the awful European media portrayed us as blah, blah, blah, but none of it true.
You are clueless and this place worsens everyday. There used to be some intelligent bantering.
Just about nobody gives a damn what the EU thinks. They (the EU governments and politicians) aren’t our friends – in fact they have been the opposite for quite a while, before PDJT was ever a president. BTW – they declined to help BEFORE PDJT said they had nothing to offer.
Nor has he “greatly diminished” anything but foreign power and influence – including over the United States.
I agree. Trump completely ignored the plight of the Iranian people who at this time are being murdered by the IRGC
This is complete BS.
Trump didn’t spend the time and money to bomb the Iranian Navy, and other militarily strategic targets to ignore the lives of everyday Iranian citizens. He has even threatened the Mullahs with more military attacks if the Iranian people were harmed.
Trump destroyed their nuclear sites and set them back 40-50 years at great expense. He didn’t do this to ignore the plight of the Iranian people.
Trump can’t pick up arms and defend the Iranian people but he can weaken the leadership.
So just what do you propose he do?
If he completely ignored the plight he could’ve bombed the country back to the stone age. He left power plants and a lot of infrastructure alone for that purpose. Now it is up to them to raise up and if they don’t it was always on them.
