The bad news is this exists on the White House website.
The worse news is that President Trump replaced Pence on the ticket with someone he fully expects would carry out this deranged scheme if he has the opportunity, instead betraying the Constitution.

It’s worth noting that, underneath all of the normalization the nation’s press corps does for Yarvin’s evil quackery, like this lavish sit down interview with the New York Times, driving all of the antisemitism and cruelty, he is also a very stupid person.
![In one of your recent newsletters, you refer to JD Vance as a "gormie." What do you mean? [Laughs.] The thing that I admire about Vance and that's really remarkable about him as a leader is that he contains within him all kinds of Americans. His ability to connect with flyover Americans in the world that he came from is great, but the other thing that's neat about him is that he went to Yale Law School, and so he is a fluent speaker of the language of The New York Times, which you cannot say about Donald Trump.

This is an astounding clip — and one I haven’t seen.
And then there's this video, of officers talking with each other about what they just witnessed.
"We didn't have a chance," one officer said. "[Trump] was still giving his speech, and I just had to leave, because he's basically just telling people to come down here and rip this place down."

Using US taxpayer dollars to bomb people and steal another country’s oil for oligarchs to sell to US taxpayers. Taxpayers pay twice, the rich get richer, and climate change from burning fossil fuels gets worse, spreading disasters globally. Murder, corruption, theft, terrorism, climate destruction.
