Bolton has plead guilty to mishandling classified security information as part of notes he compiled for a book.

I saw that. And I wondered how Trump thinks it helps him. I believe he appointed the prosecutor?

Of all of Trump's political prosecutions (persecutions?), this is one where I'm happy to say, good riddance.

An airshow at 11:30pm, even at the beginning of July, is liable to be a bit of a let-down because people won't be able to see the aircraft.

(I particularly appreciate the use of "P.M. in the afternoon", presumably to differentiate it from P.M. in the morning.)

That's going to one stiff neck looking up at planes for 10 hours. Is going to have them circling continually great escape style?

Love Lambchop.

But why oh why did you mention The Song that Never Ends?!?!?!?!?!? I caught that ear worm 40 years ago when DS1 loved Shari Lewis and finally got rid of it about 30 years ago when DS2 'outgrew' her.

And now it's baaaaacccckkkk!!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

I'm going to need to go to the mall and stand close to a stranger and sing it just loud enough for them to catch it from me. That's how you get rid of an ear worm you know. 😈🎶

I watched Song Sung Blue almost a month ago and thanks to the above post, I now have TSTNE duelling Sweet Caroline (ba ba baaaaahhhh) in my head. I've resorted to earpods and podcasts almost nonstop to try to break the cycle. (Singing it for strangers has not worked at all)

AcrossthePond55 · 26/06/2026 19:57

@Justsaynonow

Well, be sure you are sidling up to them silently, standing a wee bit too close for comfort, and singing it just loudly enough so no one else can hear.

If that doesn't work, the scream it in their ear, smack their arm and say "Tag, you're it!!!", and run away faster than the mall cops.

Now you've got me singing "This is the song that never ends, bah bah BAH!!!"

I am very sorry 🤐. Avoid that movie like the plague if you don't want it to stick. Saw a video of Prince William singing along to it at a football match and it triggered the volume switch againI have yet to try @AcrossthePond55 's technique as I love my family members too much, and haven't seen strangers today.

I see the ceasefire is falling apart

Justsaynonow · 27/06/2026 00:11

Since we've diverged from the thread topic, I was wondering if things were quiet and peeked over the parapet. Mistake.

He's threatening Canada again and has attacked Iran:

"President Donald Trump threatened to impose a 100% tariff on goods from any country that levies a digital services tax on American companies. He also hosted a Rose Garden dinner with American farmers and monitored ongoing international tensions following a U.S. strike on Iranian storage and radar facilities."

BruceAndNosh · 27/06/2026 00:08

Yup. I just done a post on that in the "peace talks" thread, and it does look as if the MOU is not being followed for ships transiting. And other posters there say the ship hit by a drone appears to have been ignoring the IMO instructions.

It's the IMO instructions that do not appear to follow article 5 of the MOU. Throw in the UKMTO instructions in addition to the IMO stuff ( and there is another that I cant remember now), and that all eventually leads to Omani instructions.

It confused the hell out of me trying to follow all the links of instructions and notices to Mariners.

RedTagAlan · 27/06/2026 04:06

Oh Oh Oh... it's super bonus Saturday.

He had a Faith thing yesterday and he done that speaking stuff that he does. Oh this is gonna be a bonanza of material.

Lets kick it off with a TRUTH. Friday, June 26, 20265:13 PM

"I will be speaking at 1:30 P.M. to The Faith and Freedom Coalition, and one of the Statements I will be making, perhaps the most important of them all, concerns the recent Election of Communists in our Country. Communism is very easy to sell. I'd be the Greatest Communist in History. I'd give free rent, free houses, free food, everything is free. Unfortunately, after two or three years, the Country where this is taking place would fail. It always does, and then you'll start living in squalor. There will be no food, there will be no housing, there will be no Military, there will be no nothing. You'll be Third World every way, and everyone will suffer or die. I'm sorry to say, but Assassinations of those who oppose them is a very important element of their Ideology. They're animals! In many cases, not smart but, in some cases, they are. It's easy for them to get followers because they make promises that they know they can't keep, and the Dumocrats aren't fighting back. In many ways, they're allowing them to go their own way. They're afraid they will lose their Election, they're afraid of conflict. They're not smart enough or tough enough to fight this plague. If they fought them the way they fight Republicans, or me, they'd be victorious, but they don't have the courage to do so. These are not social Dumocrats, these are hard core, godless Communists. This is the most serious threat to our Country since its existence 250 years ago. Isn't it ironic, we're celebrating a very important Birthday, and instead of speaking about Christ, Freedom, and Victories of all different kinds, we're speaking about yet another threat to the Foundations of America. These ruthless Communists will attack all Religions but, in particular, Christianity - They always do. All Communist Countries attack Religions violently. As you know, we recently struck Nigeria, and largely ended the slaughter of their Great Christian population. They know that if they go further, the attack will be far greater and, in that, they don't want to get involved. I am saving Christians throughout the World, even though we are not in those various Countries, by hitting these Terrorists violently and hard. They will close your Churches, they will kill your people. This is what they're about. This is the Greatest Threat to our Country since its Founding 250 years ago! President DONALD J. TRUMP"

Ok. So erm... where to start with that ?

Communists. The USA is infested with them apparently. It's a PLAGUE. And only TRUMP can save you, and only TRUMP can save Christianity.

RedTagAlan · 27/06/2026 05:25

Right. Here is the main event.

Donald Trump Addresses the Faith and Freedom Coalition Conference - June 26, 2026

Link is here. Full transcript too. A full 50 minutes of his fantastic speaking, saved and published for all to enjoy, over and over and over again.

Speech: Donald Trump Addresses the Faith and Freedom Coalition Conference - June 26, 2026 — Trump Archive (trump-archive.com)

If ok, let me pick out the inspirational highlights. I am just a Godless atheist, but I do know a bit about US evangelicals.

The Faith and Freedom Coalition was with us every step of the way. You knocked on 97 million doors. It's true. Ralph actually told me 10 million, so I had checked. It was 9.7 million. You reached 18 million voters, think of that, voters of faith. You sent 28 million text messages and made 10 million phone calls to help us win a mandate like no other administration in modern history.

That should keep the IRS busy for a while, as they go through all those 501(c) docs.

We really -- we saved religious; it was going down.

I especially want to thank Pastor Paula White, who's with us. Paula, wherever you may be. Thank you, Paula. Great person

Note. Remember Paula White claims to have visited heaven. so "wherever you may be." fits rather well. Incidentally, she described Heaven as being exactly the same as the US deep south. White mansions for everyone.

And I'm especially pleased to say that likewise, religion is back in our country, bigger and stronger than it has been in many, many years. Been reading all of those reports. Religions really -- it's going up. If that were a stock, we'd be very, very rich, all of us. It's been great to watch.

Ah yes. Reminds me of Matt 19:24 "And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.” ( NKJV)

Faith led Americans to abolish slavery, and faith built this country into the most exceptional nation in the history of the world. It was going very badly a couple of years ago, very badly, but it's back really strong. But we have to be very careful because bad things are happening and I watch what's happening.

Actually Donald, the Bible was used as justification for enslaving people.

Americans have always deeply believed in the promise of Christ's words and the gospel of Matthew, with God, all things are possible.

All Americans Don ? Even the ones that were already there ?

The last administration carried out a reign of persecution and repression against Christians, and people of faith like America has never seen before.

Ohh. Tell us more on that Don.

They turned a nation founded on freedom for believers into a place where Catholics were targeted by the FBI, where pro-life grandmothers were put in jail for praying, and where members of our military, were thrown out of the armed forces for their religious beliefs.

Is Joe not a Catholic ?

I pardoned the Christians Joe Biden threw in jail for saying prayers.

Not a good one it seems.

I got rid of the sinister Johnson amendment so that pastors can speak the truth at their pulpits.

The Johnson amendment is the one about 501(c)s not being allowed to do politics. See above re IRS. And no, Trump did not repeal it. He done an EO in 2017 telling the IRS not to prosecute.

And in my direction, the Department of Education issued new guidance protecting the right to prayer in public schools. That was a big thing. And these are all things that we were -- you know, they fought us very strongly, very, very strongly. Hard to believe they'd fight us on that, but we had to fight the good battle.

That pesky Establishment clause in the first amendment. "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion...."

And now at 12 mins into his 50 minute speech on faith, he mostly stops talking about faith. Back to his stumps.

And now we have to pass the SAVE America Act to protect our sacred American elections. Have to pass it. Hard to believe, right?

Look what's happening in California where the ballots still aren't in. They're still not, can you believe it, weeks afterwards.

I call them the Dumocrats; I exchanged an E for a U, the Dumocrats.

You'll live in squalor. There will be no food; there will be no housing; there will be no military; there will be no law and order; there will be no nothing.

That last bit is about communism. I am posting from a communist country. Squalor all over.

Assassination is a big deal for them. They're animals, they're animals.

Christian values right there.

You know, we hit them very hard. We knocked out their leader, we knocked out their second leader and their third leader. Sounds a little bit like Iran, actually.

I mean, religious liberty, but we've gotten so much. Our military is the strongest in the world. I built it during my first term, strongest in the world and people respect us again.

A reference to this ? Mat 26:52 Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword. (NKJV)

They emptied their prison populations into the United States of America. Think of that. But we're getting them out; we're getting them out faster than anybody can imagine.

Mat 25:35-36 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. (NKJV)

Their leadership has been killed a first time, and their leadership has been killed a second time.

A double tap ? Like on the school ?

And we ask that God will continue to bless the United States of America, and God will bless the United States of America because of people like you.

I can feel the holiness just oozing out.

MsJinks · 27/06/2026 06:45

@RedTagAlan- I’m not sure on faith myself - but every time Trump goes near the subject it makes me feel quite sick and ick. It’s definitely so against everything I think of when I think Christianity or any other religion.

I really do wish God/s would smite him down when he’s babbling religious rubbish - not just as it would solve a mystery to me ha!

Spandauer · 27/06/2026 07:55

Oof! Thanks (?) for sharing that @RedTagAlan

Drumpf has found (and saved) religion... ludicrous.

And how sweetly retro, we're back to "reds under the beds"!

Just when I thought I couldn't despair any more.

Vince Haley.

That is a name worth looking up. I spotted it looking through Trumps remarks before his speech about Faith

"The director of the White House Domestic Policy Council, Vince Haley. He used to be my speechwriter, now he went on to policy, and he's done a great job. He's a fantastic guy."

He had a speech writer, and he thought him good enough that he made him The director of the White House Domestic Policy ?
