This is like naming an airport after Ronald Reagan. Absolutely ridiculous.
Donald Trump wants to be recognized as a peacemaker.

His deputies obliged today by putting his name on the headquarters of the U.S. Institute of Peace, an agency that DOGE tried to kill.

The new name — the Donald J. Trump Institute of Peace — "adds insult to injury," said a lawyer for USIP staff.
Building gets a new name: The ‘Donald J. Trump’ Institute of Peace
The change comes as Trump’s administration has touted his peace deals and ahead of a signing of a deal between the leaders from Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo this week.

No president has ever needed to take one.
Trump: "I took my physical. I got all As. Everything. But they said to me, 'would you like to take a cognitive test?' I said, 'Is it hard?' They said, 'yes.' I said, 'Well, I'm a very smart person. Who was the last president to take one?' 'No president has ever agreed to take one' ... I aced it."

The precedent hasn't exactly gone well most of the time.
Rep. Greg Murphy on Maduro: "There is precedent for America going in and removing dictators ... this man is no good for the Western Hemisphere and needs to be removed."

Senator Kelly is correct.

Plus a Public Service Announcement:

KEY section of Department of Defense's Law of War Manual is 18.3.2.1.

The VERY rule on the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders gives as its paradigmatic example of what is "clearly illegal:
"orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

Sure would be nice if we had a Legislative Branch involved in declaring war. Wonder why the Founders never considered that.
Trump, with no authority to do so, demands the airspace “above and surrounding” Venezuela be closed as he threatens to bomb and invade the country.

At some point, these officers need to be held individually accountable. It's not enough to just replace the administration and call it a clean slate.

This guy is just incapable of giving even the most basic "nice" speech without being a complete dick during it.
Trump on the turkeys he's about to pardon: "I shouldn't say this. I was gonna call them Chuck and Nancy. But then I realized I wouldn't be pardoning them. I would never pardon those two people. I wouldn't pardon them. I wouldn't care what Melania told me."

This is the sort of thing you reassuringly say to grandpa as you escort him back to the TV room.
Trump: "I met with two pollsters the day before I got the news about covid because we were starting to think about the next election. They said, 'Sir, if George Washington and Abraham Lincoln came back from the dead and they aligned, you'd be beating them by 25 points.'"
