An official memo from the Trump administration is directing all would-be federal employees to draft an essay about how much they love Donald Trump as part of the hiring process. The federal government is currently on a hiring freeze that will expire on July 15th, and in order to make sure they only get Trump-loving applicants, they are requiring the essay as part of the process. This is so "Dear Leader" that it would make North Korea blush.
During a press briefing this week, Karoline Leavitt struggled to pronounce a very basic, and very important word MULTIPLE times. As pointed out on BlueSky by Aaron Rupar, Leavitt struggled several times to say "President Trump," and instead it sounded more like "President Chump." The Internet immediately lit up at Leavitt's latest screw up, but Trump probably wasn't laughing.
According to a new report from The Washington Post, Donald Trump's own White House staffers have been "blindsided" by his posts on Truth Social, with some saying that they've been shocked by what they've seen over there. Have these people been living in a cave with no internet for the last 15 years? Everyone knows that this is how Trump operates, but it is also true that his posts are growing even more unhinged than ever before.
During a late night posting spree on Truth Social this week, Donald Trump bizarrely and incorrectly stated that the economy is doing better than ever. This was an obvious lie, but it didn't take long to get thoroughly debunked, as a new economic report was released just hours later showing that the US economy is once again FAILING to meet economic projections and could hit recession status by this summer. Trump can't hide the truth from everyone all the time.
