Hilarious news!

Just saw this news fresh from BBC:

"US President Donald Trump is directing that the Department of Defense be known as the Department of War.

The BBC has seen the text of the executive order, which says: "The name 'Department of War' conveys a stronger message of readiness and resolve compared to 'Department of Defense,' which emphasizes only defensive capabilities."

In an effort to "project strength and resolve," the order authorises the defence secretary, his department and subordinate officials to use the new titles as secondary names.

The order also instructs Hegseth to recommend and include legislative and executive actions to move toward a permanent renaming of the department since Trump cannot formally change the name without congressional approval.

The Department of War was established by George Washington but was rebranded following World War II."

-----------------------------

A person who said he deserves a Nobel Peace Prize now promotes a stronger message of readiness and resolve? 

Wish I could say more, but I'm speechless, and don't know whether I should laugh or cry.

What a world we are in now. Sigh ... ...
