It appears to be a fake. That is not helping things, at all.

Indeed...it made me immediately suspicious on the grounds of being "too good to be true". 

Also fits the DoJ would filter out some fake chaff so that Trump can say plausibly say "this is all fake" (including that earlier birthday card, etc.)

It might work...

I've never owned or been around an entire Christmas album, but my favorite songs are Angels We Have Heard on High in the traditional/sacred category and Do They Know It's Christmas Time (Band Aid) in the contemporary category.  Special mention to Christmas is Coming The Goose is Getting Fat in the sing along category.

My favorite album is the The Greatest Christmas Choral Classics (https://www.amazon.com/Greatest-Christmas-Choral-Classics/dp/B0149M5TTG). All of the sounds are performed superbly by the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra and the Crouch End Festival Chorus.

The first CD is all traditional Christmas songs. Highlights here include the haunting Coventry Carol, Gaudete (which you may remember from the EUII soundtrack :D ), and of course the always wonderful Carol of the Bells.

The second CD has modern hits. It starts with, of course, All I want for Christmas Is You, which, when done by a classical orchestra and choir, is just fantastic. From there you have Jingle Bells, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, Jingle Bell Rock, among others. Particular favorites are Somewhere in My Memory (the theme from Home Alone) and the lovely Walking in the Air.

Highly recommended. Looks like the CD is no longer available on Amazon, but might be available elsewhere.

That the US voted for this nonsense is just... dumbest timeline.

Quote from: grumbler on December 23, 2025, 01:16:50 PMThe "Trump Class" is so obviously vaporwear that I am surprised even someone as dumb as Hegseth would let Trump trot that absurdity out. It features what would likely be a $20B cost, includes weapons that don't work or don't even exist, and would require a massive investment in building docks to be able to make anything that big without cancelling all the carrier builds and overhauls.  And that's not even mentioning the USN's complete incompetence in ship design that has built four failure classes in a row and hasn't developed a successful warship design since 1987.

Trump's pathological narcissism gets worse by the day.

Thanks for that, I suspected this would be the case but it is always good to get confirmation from a qualified source.

I whipped this up in 10 minutes in Midjourney. I think I should apply to the Pentagon for a job as designer. :)
