The last Sherman tank rolled off an assembly line in July, 1945. The Abrams tank entered US service in 1980. How exactly are either of these "brand new?"
Should I be troubled that the president believes a tank that last saw service in the US Army in 1957 is "brand new?" Will any reporter follow up on this?
Maybe the president meant "newly restored Sherman tank." There are a few of those around, including one that was on sale in 2016 on eBay. Is that what the president meant by "brand new Sherman tanks?"
A military parade featuring invisible fighter jets and brand new tanks from 1945 would indeed be a sight to behold.
BREAKING: Live footage from President Trump's 4th of July Parade!

Very good reason to exercise skepticism about the Current Goings On: there is no "EU Commission Security Counsel."
I would caution against lumping too many unconnected elements into whatever is going on with Pence right now. When you start connecting a Russian sub fire and a terrorism response team taking off and other random things, you get into conspiracy theory land.
When you start pretending that you know what's going on with Pence when you don't, and you definitely know that all these things are connected when none of them might be, you turn into a QAnon person. Don't turn into a QAnon person.

After a month of silence, QAnon has returned to posting, putting up two drops exhorting believers to "be ready." Say what you want about Q, but whoever is running the scam knows when to hit the gas again.
If the Q poster's new pattern holds, you'll see a bunch of half-hearted posts, patriotic glurge, and re-posts of old drops until July 4th, when Q will disappear again. It's just enough to keep the faithful hanging on and the $$$ flowing, but with no real effort needed.
Whoever is running this has realized they don't need to put the slightest effort into it, other than a few posts here and there to keep the fires burning. What a sad, pathetic con QAnon is - and yet incredibly effective.

I'm writing a story about the one month gap since QAnon's last post, and want to ask the most fervent believers some simple questions:
1. Do you still believe in Q and "the plan" despite the silence?
2. If so, why?
3. If not, why not?
4. Will you leave if Q never posts again?
Paging @StormIsUponUs @intheMatrixxx @Jordan_Sather_ @qanon76 @martingeddes @SaraAshchraft @zachhaller @2runtherace @DustinNemos @RodSneaky @SeanCordicon @prayingmedic @JuliansRum @carrie4truth @DocRock1007 @QAnon_17 and all #QAnon believers.
It's clear that whatever QAnon created is moving past QAnon's actual need to contribute to it. I'm fascinated as to why, and would like to hear from those who play the biggest role in spreading the message. DM's are open, but my deadline is pretty soon.

#president @KRLS: "Rey o República no era un debate hasta que Felipe VI entro en política. En Europa hay muchas monarquías que entienden su rol, básicamente callar en política porque nadie les ha votado. No es el caso de España".

#president @KRLS: "El català es una lengua hablada por 10 millones de personas pero no se puede hablar en el @Europarl_EN . Soy crítico con las instituciones europeas porque quiero una Europa mucho mas democrática"
#president @KRLS: "Quiero una EU que alce la voz cuando uno de sus estados miembros, como España, viola los derechos fundamentales. Hay muchos ciudadanos europeos que sienten decepción al ver que solo priman los intereses económicos y no los derechos fundamentales"

$TSLAQ.

Last week I posted photos of a South Florida storage lot for Tesla. I neglected to inform everyone that a very good fried chicken truck was located on the route to the lot(s). Mostly because I was hungry, i decided to go back. . .

#Teslastoreupdate
To my shock and dismay, I found a fair amount of movement, which alarmed me.

At first.

To review, this is the panoramic view from last week.
This is the panoramic view from today. Note the gap in the center, where many cars used to be, but no longer are.

For my Jewish and non-Jewish followed who have not previously owned or carried a firearm I thought I’d start a thread on the subject. I don’t actually claim any special expertise but I’ve been carrying firearms, other weapons, and personal preparedness equipment for decades.
A bit of background. As you know from reading my bio, I’m a retired Naval Aviator. I’ve been retired for a while and most of my service was in the reserves. Interestingly, I had almost no firearms training in the Navy. I was initially qualified on a S&W Model 10 .38 revolver.
Later, I qualified on an M-16. Other than shooting a revolver off the fantail of the ship at garbage, those two events were literally the only time I fired a gun in my entire career. I don’t think I’m unique in that among Aviators of my age.

I was substitute teaching, trying to get my teaching career going. I wouldn’t let the kids watch any coverage because I honestly thought it was a accident.
The gas station had a line about a half mile long. I didn’t fill up.
When I got home my brand new wife was worried I was in the verge of getting drafted.

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full
