An interesting factoid:

On at least five separate occasions from 2017 to this year, and including during meetings with German heads of state, Taco has stated that his father was born in Germany. In fact, Fred was born in New York and it is Taco's grandfather, Friedrich, who was born in Germany and emigrated to the USA. Each time Taco has made that claim about his father's birthplace, he has been corrected and even shown copies of his father's birth certificate. However, he continues to state that his father was born in Germany.

As a passionate family historian, I find it hard to fathom how someone can get a parent's birthplace wrong but I accept that not everyone has an interest in their family history. However, to repeatedly claim the wrong birthplace for a parent despite being corrected is not just a misunderstanding or mistake, it's yet another cognitive glitch by the bloke with the nuclear codes.

Ironically, Fred tried to hide his German ancestry and claimed to be Swedish.

Hmm...

Today, the Supreme Court blocked the Trump Administration's attempts to fire Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve Board until the case of her mortgage fraud had been finalised (as farcical as these charges are).

With her removed, Trump would effectively have full control over monetary policy, especially interest rate movements which would then become political rather than economy-based decisions, especially as he tries to regain ground before the mid-terms,

In response to the decision, Trump said on Truth Social they would continue to push for the removal of Cook, adding

“We will take appropriate action immediately to make sure that someone who has committed wrongdoing will not be making vital decisions concerning the Welfare of the United States of America!”

Pot, kettle, black!

The next few months leading up to November are going to be mind-boggling, as the Orange one tries desperately to avoid a wipeout. Get ready for some even more outrageous attempts to pervert democracy.
