I can't think that this is important to the average American, trying to pay for their groceries, utility bills, taxes, and gasoline.
Same with the repainting of the reflection pool or building arches in Washington.

It's all bullshit.

It's about priorities.

That is an excellent production! If the Blues is one of the genres of music that you enjoy, you can't help but appreciate this work.

I thought the same. Not cheesy (like I was afraid it might be) at all.

Agreed!

Liked the blues video.

Wish Trump would start wearing the blue and the red with blue banded pimp hats though. Would really piss some dumma crats off.

Rubio is now permanent National Security Advisor

Rubio’s meme-worthy job collection takes new turn with permanent Trump upgrade

By Ashley DiMella, Morgan Phillips

Published September 22, 2026

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has collected an unusually broad portfolio in President Donald Trump’s second administration — and one of his most powerful roles is now permanent.

Trump recently signed a commission formally making Rubio his national security adviser, a senior State Department official, White House official and senior administration official confirmed to Fox News Digital on Tuesday.

The move makes permanent a role Rubio has held since May 2025, when Trump tapped him to replace Michael Waltz on an interim basis.

Rubio will continue to manage the National Security Council process and serve as a direct line to the president on national security matters.

The former Florida senator has been a prominent figure in the Trump administration, holding multiple official posts while becoming the subject of online jokes about just how many jobs he could take on.

The move puts Rubio in rare company, being only the second person in U.S. history to simultaneously serve as secretary of state and national security adviser, after Henry Kissinger held both posts under President Richard Nixon in the 1970s.

Kissinger became Nixon’s national security adviser in 1969, later being sworn in as the secretary of state in 1973. The roles gave him extraordinary influence during the conflict with the Soviet Union, the opening to China and diplomacy surrounding the 1973 Arab-Israeli War.

Trump has previously tapped Rubio to serve as U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) acting administrator shortly after being sworn in at the State Department. He was also tapped to serve as acting archivist of the United States, a post he held from February to December 2025.

Rubio has taken social media by storm, as critics and allies of the administration share viral memes showing doctored photos of Rubio sitting in the Oval Office wearing various outfits to fit a new job role he could pick up.

Photos have circulated of Rubio as Spirit Airlines pilot, a White House beekeeper or a Kentucky Derby jockey – even dressed as Dolly Parton after the country music star passed away earlier this year.

Rubio is the man!

Over the past few days I have heard a number of very sober, well-reasoned commentators on the political right talking about the midterms and related polling.

They uniformly speak about the House already being a lost cause for the GOP, and they focus on whether the GOP can hold the Senate.

Things do not need to be this way. Trump won in 2024 by large margins. The only reason that cannot be repeated this fall is if YOU—the average Trump voter—decides to let it happen.

I know, I know, I know. Trump has not made all of your hopes and dreams come true in two years’ time.

You think he has done nothing, even though he has had profound victory after profound victory in areas like immigration and downsizing the federal government. You have your pet issue that has not been satisfied to the extent you demand, so you want to “Stay home and send them a message.”

Yes the GOP sucks. It’s a heinous mess of self-interest and failed status quo maintenance.

But the only thing worse is the Democrat Party.

We are running against LITERAL COMMUNISTS who want to abolish the Senate, pack the Supreme Court, add two new deep blue states, open the borders to unlimited immigration and succumb to creeping Sharia and jihad in order to literally destroy the nation. (Plus, they will spend the next two years impeaching Trump and everyone in his orbit, fully defeating what you voted for in 2024.)

So you have two choices. It’s a binary choice, there is no third option:

1. Vote for doing everything we can to pursue MAGA even if that’s not perfect.

2. Stay home and become ruled by literal Communists who want you dead.

Choose.

We can still win this fall, we just need the will to do it.

I hope he got a raise to go with the title. Seems like he's been doing a hell of a job.

Yeah, assholes, keep it up. Make it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Pollsters and pundits

What have we learned, guys?

That you might as well call the MSM Tokyo Rose.

'You've already lost Joe, come on down and have some Saki. For you, the war is over.'

I just saw this on FOX...

If this is actually paid for by the US government we've got problems, whether we agree with the message or not.

Judge Lifts Trump's Ban on CNN, MSNBC, and Politico, Restoring White House Access
The judge said the outlets are likely to win on due-process grounds and rejected the administration’s national-security justification for the ban.

On Thursday, US District Judge Tim Kelly ordered the White House to restore access for journalists from CNN, MS NOW, and Politico, ruling the administration's September 18 ban was likely unconstitutional.
President Donald Trump barred the three outlets on September 18, claiming they "shouldn't be able to constantly write or report FICTION and LIES," while Justice Department lawyers argued the move was necessary on national security grounds.
In solidarity with CNN, broadcasters including ABC, CBS, Fox, and NBC halted pool coverage on Monday, joining nearly 50 news organizations that filed a brief challenging the exclusions.
Kelly, a Trump appointee, previously ordered the White House to temporarily restore access for a CNN reporter during the president's first term, establishing judicial limits on executive power regarding press access.
The administration launched a streaming channel on Monday, aiming to bypass mainstream media; this reflects the president's long-standing characterization of press outlets as the "enemy of the people.

Put them in the back row and never call on them, like Obama and Biden did.

Again, How does this help the average American's day-to-day life?

OK, so maybe nobody watches FOX anymore, but the US government should not be going further into debt to run advertising.
