the ceasefire breaking is going to stop anytime soon. Might get a good result. We'll see. And let's talk about Trump's third term. So apparently the news today is that Trump has admitted that it's not an option. He said, quote, "It's pretty clear I'm not allowed to run. It's too bad." Now, so he's just noting that the Constitution says there's no way he could have a third term. Now, we had all gr…

Anyway, the White House has fired all members of the Commission of Fine Arts. Oh, well, what are we going to do without them man? Every day I wake up and I'm like, "Thank God there are problems in this world, but at least we still have the Commission of Fine Arts." What were they doing? Well, among other things, it looks like their volunteer job was to review construction projects at the White House. So it must be more than that. But part of what they were doing is reviewing. Now, they didn't have power. I don't think they were just sort of a review body. But Trump got rid of all of them and now he's going to replace them with people who like what he likes, which I don't mind at all. You don't want too many architects or cooks in the kitchen. You sort of need one person. And I'm perfectly fine with Trump building his, you know, even if it's gaudy, perfectly fine, you know, because government buildings, they're supposed to look a little gaudy, should have a little extra gold, couple extra columns, you know. So if it's a government or even if it were Trump's own house, it's a different standard. So yeah, I'm perfectly fine with Trump's point of view of what the White House should look like.
Well, here's weird. Can you believe that Scott Bessent, Treasury Secretary, and Elizabeth Warren, who's on the other side of politics, can you believe that there's anything they agree on? Well, it turns out there is. They're both in favor of banks raising the insured limit for deposits to 250,000. I think it's 150 now. Is that right? 250 makes sense to me, especially as people, you know, inflation blah blah blah. So yeah, I guess only banks would oppose this, but Democrats and Republicans would be on board. Raise that limit.
Well, I guess the US has taken out four more of these alleged narco boats that they say are coming out of Vene

zuela. So that would bring the number to 14 narco terrorists who were killed in the strikes with one survivor. Oh, I think that was just this strike. 14 on just this strike. But that would be also 14 boats that they've taken out, right? So 14 shows up twice in this story. 14 being the number they killed this time, but also the total number of boats they've taken out is a little unclear, but the pa…
