The New York Post - Trump vows the US will cure cancer, eradicate AIDS at reelection rally
June 18, 2019 11:44pm
President Trump vowed to push America into new “medical frontiers” at a campaign rally on Tuesday evening, saying the US will eradicate AIDS and cure cancer.
Trump made the proclamation at his 2020 reelection campaign kickoff in Orlando, Florida.
“We will push onward with new medical frontiers,” Trump said at the rally.
“We will come up with the cures to many, many problems, to many, many diseases, including cancer and others. And we’re getting closer all the time,” he added.
“We will eradicate AIDS in America once and for all and we’re very close.”
Immediately after Trump suggested the US would eradicate AIDS and cure cancer, he added that the US would “lay the foundation for landing American astronauts on the surface of Mars.”
I wonder if he can walk on water ... 😶

The New York Times - Senate Votes to Block Trump’s Arms Sales to Gulf Nations in Bipartisan Rebuke
June 20, 2019
WASHINGTON — The Senate voted to block the sale of billions of dollars of munitions to Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates on Thursday, in a sharp and bipartisan rebuke of the Trump administration’s attempt to circumvent Congress to allow the exports by declaring an emergency over Iran.
In three back-to-back votes, Republicans joined Democrats to register their growing anger with the administration’s use of emergency power to cut lawmakers out of national security decisions, as well as the White House’s unflagging support for the Saudis despite congressional pressure to punish Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman after the killing in October of the journalist Jamal Khashoggi. ...
Mr. Trump has pledged to veto the legislation, and it is unlikely that either chamber could muster enough support to override the president’s veto.
Seven Republicans - not nearly enough to override a veto - broke from their party to disapprove of the sales to Saudi Arabia ...
The Washington Post - This is what happens when you have an unfit commander in chief
June 20 at 2:24 PM
The Senate repudiating a president of the majority party on a matter of national security would be unusual under any circumstances.
That it comes at a time when tensions with a major international foe are boiling over is nothing short of astonishing, a sign of how far President Trump has fallen as commander in chief even among Republicans. ...
The president once more has gone to the well claiming “emergency” powers as a way to do an end run around Congress.
The only emergency we have, however, is an utterly unfit commander in chief who has earned no deference from Congress, no trust from allies and no respect from foes. ...

kingdragonfly: It's a cliche that defense lawyers signal their testifying clients they are giving a bad answer by coughing. It's so common that judges will warn defense lawyers about signaling when one coughs.
So chief of staff Mick Mulvaney may have been signaling to Trump "hey, shut up about possibly releasing your tax returns." Naturally Trump is too thick to get the clue. ...

So Trump says he ready to start a war with Iran. He tweets out "We're cocked and loaded, "which is not a thing.
It's "locked and loaded."
"Cocked and loaded", we looked it up, is the name of a gay porn movie.
I'm not making this up, with the subtitle: "a gang bang daddy f***"
Which is a pretty good summary of the last 2 and half years.
