At this rate Trump is going to exceed Hitler for the record of unsuccessful assassination attempts.

I'm waiting for the day when these guys stop trying to sneak past the secret service with a gun. That's just a recipe for failure and running up the score of unsuccessful assassination attempts. All it will take is one determined individual that flys an explosive-laced FPV drone on a fiber-optic tether. Secret service will be powerless to stop that.

That's just not how logistics works for battlegroups. I've said before that these pics are probably "midrats". That's leftovers that are available between regular meal service times. Either that or somebody is on a diet and sending their food log home.
The idea that an entire aircraft carrier is starving during high ops tempo stretches credulity. I don't think people understand how quickly ops would grind to a halt if all those people were given starvation diets. Weak and fatigued people don't mix well with fast aircraft and nuclear reactors in tight proximity.
As a point, not only is anybody touching an aircraft fed enough, but aircrew are required to eat different meals from each other to ensure that accidental food poisoning doesn't incapacitate a crew. Knowing those rules, it makes this pictures very questionable.

I think some did sneak out some wines and champagnes.

A different thing they'd be powerless to stop would be a *real* "inside job", i.e. a Laura Loomer going bonkers or something.

I think it's the issue of "rationing" versus "starvation" which are slightly different things...
...but I am getting a bit sick of the media here using the one source..for what reason? There's enough stuff out there that makes this administration look bad including with this war...they don't need some petty instance where a rank and file personal trolling the media with grainy shots of their meals taken in with little context. Instead it needs to be demonstrated that this is wide spread problem from multiple sources to be really newsworthy here, IMO.

O'DONNELL: In his manifesto, he wrote that 'I'm no longer willing to permit a pedophile, rapist, & traitor to coat my hands with his crimes.' TRUMP: I'm not a rapist. I'm not a pedophile. You read that crap from a sick person. You should be ashamed of yourself, reading that. You're a disgrace.

Laura Loomer going bonkers? She's already bonkers! Maybe Loomer having a moment of lucidity.

Sucks that the only truly airtight security exists to protect the Russian dictator. What you're describing sounds like a big hole in the system designed to protect the US president, and unfortunately the security & intelligence systems responsible for the safety of the public probably have even more holes in them (speculation).

I'm talking about "Taliesin 1914" kind of bonkers. Essentially, she's the kind of person you can picture stabbing Trump and ripping his heart out of his body before the people in white coats carry her away screaming.

The President's invite to the WHCD has always been symbolic more than literal, as it is almost always a pure roasting of the current administration. That invite, in and of itself, has always been contentious for journalists as it's often been taken as a stifle on the dinner and their ability to speak freely.It never would have happened if he had his ballroom
Putting it anywhere on white house grounds would basically be admitting that "trump runs the show".
It’s not a White House event so wouldn’t be there, I was just echoing (and eye rolling) his ridiculous assertion.
He should perhaps focus his energy to find solutions for the many mass shootings that happen.

I personally hope Trump is never assassinated. That would cause real convulsions in American politics and I fear what would come out of that. I hope he dies peacefully in his sleep, completely discredited.

...instead admittedly I do hope that Mother Nature (or whatever shinigami) takes him out. Even more so would be during one of his fits of rage on Truth Social.
