Ok, so here we go… Trump’s new joint address to Congress.
Here’s how to watch:
https://www.politico.com/news/2025/03/04/donald-trump-congress-speech-how-to-watch-024384
“Trump’s address to Congress will begin Tuesday at 9 p.m. ET. The speech will be broadcast on major television networks and available to stream on certain websites, including POLITICO.”
So 6 PM Pacific Time.
Worth noting that like Biden’s address to Congress in 2021, this isn’t TECHNICALLY a “State of the Union” address, although it has a lot of the trappings of a State of the Union.
Typically the first address from a new President to Congress isn’t called a “State of the Union.”
“According to the American Presidency Project, the impacts of these first-year speeches should be considered to have the same heft as the State of the Union addresses that follow in subsequent years. And, just like the State of the Union address, the opposing party to the one that occupies the White House gives a brief speech in response, which, like the president’s remarks, is televised. This year’s will be delivered by Democratic Sen. Elissa Slotkin of Michigan.”
oh now trump cries how if he ever did anything of value, which he has not, he would not get accolades from the democrats. mmm. maybe you should do something worthwhile first.
Anyone got bingo cards? I’m putting a Putin to visit White House on mine along with Andrew Tate gets a government position - maybe alongside Elona. There’s also the McDonald’s Hamderber becoming the National Food
Anyone got any others to fill out my card?
Outside of that, I got my bullshit meter ready. Trying to prep for the Thirty Days of the Best Achievements the world has ever seen and how he alone saved countries at war. Then Elona will talk about the billions of dollars saved while his kid wipes buggers on Trump’s face.
Elon instead of Melania.
Elonia?
sorry I monopolized this thread but hey man sorta eff you guys for being so silent. live with my drunken summaries.
LOL, thanks for doing a play by play. I’ve only got NA beer in the house right now and I’d need something with some strength to attempt to watch this shit.
Your service is appreciated.
I had intended to watch but my wife vetoed me for Daredevil.
Pro tip - New season of Daredevil starts today(!)
wife kinda watched half (listened to it while playing a game) and could not take it.
crowing about his success in gaza
omg the republicans are chanting trump.
ruh ro. south korea is on the chopping block. japan and sk and taiwan and india better get a defense treaty going.
Pass. Not giving it any ratings and I will wait for the coherent summary without the faff. Besides, no matter what the jackass does, there’s nothing I can immediately do in reaction to it.
It was just a rally.
Hardly anything he says is credible anyways. Only look at what he does
boasting about gulf of america and renaming denali. I may not be able to take this.
Thank you for your service.
now talking about shit building. oh wait. ship building. and reclaiming the panama canal.
bidens failed administration open southern border that he deported more folks than I at less cost.
Maybe if I address a joint during the joint address it will make things tolerable
oh if only I had one.
omg he is crowing about taking over and making partisan the fbi and doj.
So Al Green got booted from the room. Interesting.
thanks for getting me the name.
I made a list of all the cuts Trump mentioned:
Million(s) Description $45 International school scholarships (labeled DEI) - [International Relations] $40 Some kind of international social services? - [International Relations] $8 Promoting international LGBTQ+? Is this research funding or international relations? - [International Relations] $60 Indigenous people in central america? Like, international relations? - [International Relations] $8 Making mice transgender? Like, research? - [Research] $32 Some kind of left wing propaganda operation in buldova? - [Spy Shit] $10 Promoting male circumcision in MoseHamBeak? idk - [Weird] [International Relations] $3.5 Consulting contract for fish monitoring? Like, research? - [Research] $1.5 Voter confidence in Liberia? Like, trying to help them secure a democracy? - [International Relations] $14 Social coheasion in Mahli? - [International Relations] [Spy Shit] $59 Illegal alien hotels in New York. idk - [Yeah, Alright] $42 Increase vegan local climate action innovation in Zambia? - [What?] $14 Social and behavior changes in Ughanda? Is this more research funding and is it ethical? - [idk] [Research] $47 Improving public procurement in Serbia? [Spy Shit] $101 DEI contracts at the Department of Education? [American Investment Cuts] (List of Cuts Mentioned by Trump)
$485 Million cut funds to international relations, research, spy shit, and whatever else. I guess the question is, what are they going to do with the 485 Million? Presumably the $22 Billion cut in American Human & Health Services (HHS) is going toward paying down the deficit, right?
Thats trumps golf budget for the next two years that he will spend at his own businesses. with ~3mio/trip thats 161 trips. with him golfing 30% of his days in office during his last term and him being on track to repeat that, this “golfing budget” will be used up in less than two years.
sorry americans, you got screwed for years to come for some racist orange to loot your contry dry to go golfing and funnel money into his own businesses.
and his succes in ukraine.
