Trump’s War on Words Like a petulant child, Felon Trump pulls the welcome mat from the People’s House Katie Phang Sep 20 On Friday, Convicted Felon Donald Trump didn’t "ban" CNN, MSNOW, and Politico from the White House. What he did was post one of his typical temper tantrums on that cesspool of a social media platform, Truth Social, about "FICTION and LIES," and then, because nobody in that used-to-be-hallowed building has the testicular fortitude to tell the toddler “no”, the Secret Service spent Saturday morning disabling press badges like a landlord changing the locks on a tenant he never bothered to legally evict.

President Trump, a warmonger and a toddler, is lashing out at allies for refusing his calls for help in Iran. As we wrote last week, Trump's predicament with the Strait of Hormuz is directly tied to the administration's   apparent failure to think through  plans for the Strait of Hormuz, one of the most vital chokepoints for energy in the world, before he decided to start his war. But that isn't to say this administration has  no  plans. They've got plenty when it comes to  turning newspapers into distribution chains for US propaganda . As Noah Lanard wrote this weekend: Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth’s Pentagon has come up with a plan to limit the independence of  Stars and Stripes , the news publication for members of the US military that has been published continuously since World War II.   Under the new policy,  Stars and S...
