Apparently Trump didn’t know Pentagon paused Ukraine aid back in February. Reuters: U.S. military aid to Ukraine was paused in early Feb — not by Trump, but by Defense Secretary Hegseth. There was no presidential order. The White House and State Department weren’t informed
Add it to the myriad other things Trump doesn’t know.
The difference between a unilateral decision that blindsided the cult leader and a coordinated decision where the messaging is supposed to divert any future blame away from the cult leader is easy: was the person supposedly at fault fired? No? Then it’s all just talk, since the overall outcome nicely aligns with the policy goals of the red team.
Seems like they are setting Hegseth up to take a few falls to consolidate blame.
I thought it would be Musk would be the first scapegoat. Öets see who’ll finish the race first
donvict stopped shipments himself over two months ago, shortly after that meeting at the white house. src
So this is just trump gaslighting then. Or he really has that short of a memory.
The list of things Trump does know would be vanishingly short.
I heard that Hegseth was seen in some DC grocery stores in the early mornings, switching the price tags on eggs, making them more expensive
Oh no! Poor Mr Hegseth has found himself to be the fall guy for the U.S. administration. That’s the juicy reward of being a fascist and buddying up with even more powerful fascists, I guess.
He should be careful. These sort of regimes tend to have long knives
Windows seem a popular accident also
