Private car for private use work van for work use. Thats said I did used to work for a guy who needed to put business hours/miles on his private jet for tax reasons.Maybe he should've used his own with TRUMP in massive letters down the side

Interestingly Karoline Leavitt is going, now with her being a proper right wing conservative republican i do buy her reason to spend more time with family (new child in May) but considering what she had to deal with with announcements by Truth social. Its going to be a tough job to follow its not a normal White House press secretary job.

"Plus private plane for private work government plane for government work." - the line is rather blurred with Trump.

I try not to get involved with these posts, but for the love of all things f*cking good, please try to recognise that one of these is a Whitehouse and the other is The White House!!!
And only one if these deserves any respect!

I’ve read this in a few places and the comments saying she’s gone because she was on the plane that was a potential target and not told about it.

Well you’re not trying very hard are you
I always hope for good news that he's been replaced or arrested, but sadly never seems to happen.
But even that I can normally click and leave, but the bloody Whitehouse stuff triggers me as much as Eric/Erik or Cummings!
Plus I'm too hot and grouchy!!!!
Never too old to take up fishing. Great way to switch off.

Fair enough but that goes with the territory, as important as she was she isn't the commander in chief and the security services cant go around telling her things like that too. You take a flight near an active war zone that you are a combatant in then surely you are aware your plane is a target.

Ah, the vaccine thing, where he claims children have 70-90 shots, and its like a bottle of coke being inserted into a baby...
the "evidence" to back up the claim includes saying each of the 2 shots of the MMR vaccine is 3 shots (rather than 1 joint one). "hilariously" amongst their plans is to split up the MMR to be separate shots for Measles, Mumps, and Rubella - so it will actually match their claim in the future, rather than the lie it is now.

Trump is getting desperate by offering a $5000 payment if the Republicans win the mid terms. Would cost around $1.3tn from reports.

Its a silly gimic but at least it is targeting a broad voter base. Labour like to give a way free money but mainly to the benefit class to get them to vote for them. And i'm sure the tories in Hunts last weeks as chancellor did something similar.
I'm sure the policy to implement or take away the triple lock in pensions is the same. Its political suicide to take that away yet there it is a bung to the pensioner class.
