I thought he wanted to be the Peace President? He's like a leaf in the wind.

“Hilary the Hawk, Trump the Dove” - if nothing else the last decade has taught us the media are absolute morons and will take literally everything at face value, without an ounce of scrutiny

What legal authority does he have to kill people in international waters without due process?? Keep asking. Any other president would be getting round the clock coverage for this international humanitarian crime. Prioritize the news flow.

He's just itching to engage in war so he can stop elections. It's time for a little Soft Secession. Let the feds bail out the piss poor red states without any help from wealthy blue donor states. Blue states will form our own Cooperatives. Civil war is nearly here.

We need immediate subpoenas and FOIAs, as well as back of the envelope calculations, to find out how much this bullsh** will cost.

Only Congress can do that! Stop providing misinformation!

Two words thrown together to make weak, unqualified men appear strong!

The peace president, ladies and gentlemen.

Trump will rename the Department of Defense to “definitely not the department of Epstein”.

As a President who campaigned on the “ending wars” and “no more foreign adventures” and “NATO can go it alone”… it is ironic to remake the DoD as “Dept of War”.

This may not just be a name change or PR stunt. Trump may use the propaganda about "restoring a warrior ethos" to purge the military of career officers who are loyal to the USA and its constitution with a new cadre of fascist military officers who are loyal to Trump and his attacks on democracy.

He's such a child.

Just like everything else he does - he will do it, people will sue, he will leave it as dept of war until someone else has the authority to do it. He is a horrible person and no one in the GOP will bring up Impeachment.

You mean Department of War Crimes?

Virtue signal ass president

Axioms can’t even write an accurate headline? Yikes.

What Rex Tillerson said.

More credulous sanewashing. It would take an act of fucking Congress. Oligarch-owned Zombie Fourth Estate is a KKKristofascist KKKollaborating shitshow that is ceding our Constitution and democracy...quite deliberately...to autocratic fascist power-grabbing KKKunts. YOU ARE A DANGER TO US ALL.

Have you guys ever actually been good at this news stuff?

So no more MOOTW?

So it’s no longer about defending ourselves. It’s about Aggressively going to War…

I thought he was all about peace. 😵‍💫

wow, what must there be in th #EpsteinFiles for them to do this?

Embarrassing reporting by Axios. Maybe focus on the fact that he can't legally do this without Congress.

Just because he says it, Just because he's going to do it, Doesn't mean it's Constitutional, It certainly doesn't mean it's legal, Nor does it mean he has the authority to do it at all! This Administration is a stain on the Constitution & the American rule of law. #ImpeachTrump #DepartmentOfDefense

The Pentagon will be renamed “The Best Little War House in Virginia”.

You should be embarrassed to call yourselves journalists reporting this in this manner. Read the fucking Constitution.

Renaming is Trump's way of pissing on things and saying "Mine." His juvenile behavior will echo for generations. #VoteOutEveryRepublican

How? Just signing a piece of paper? Is that how our government works? Why would you present this as fait accompli when it is not how any of this works, @axios.com ?

And there is Trump throwing red meat to the manosphere again.

Crime syndicate running government No Justice, generations pay the price

Trump is living in the 1940s

Wait until this lunatic signs an executive order demanding NFL units be named, “Offense, War & Special Teams”.

Is there a document or anything that outlines the power of the president or are we just pretending he can do whatever the fuck he wants.

Small weiner energy

Yeah, fine. Good luck justifying funding The WAR Department.

Coming soon, the Gulf of War.

I thought he wanted a peace prize?

The nuance is telling. America,no longer the supposed protector, now the de facto aggressor.

That’s sure to get him the peace prize

Ok but, at least it not the Ministry of Peace?

And nothing says peace like renaming Defense to War!

It's been it for decades. No news. You should call, enough! You guys are the loosers of all this kind of policy. Plant new seeds, care that they sow

No he will not and it's journalistic malpractice to claim he can

Congress doesn’t run Google.

Think he needs Congress to do that, btw

No he won’t, because the president has no power to do that.

Are they dead yet

This is pathetic stenography and not journalism.

What weak men think strength sounds like.

LDFO, as the kids say.

Personally I would rather it be the "Department of Peace" than "Department of War".

Trying to piss on everything like a cat in heat. This particular spray’s supposed to require an act of Congress, though. Right?

Donald Trump, like any president, has no authority to rename the Department of Defense. You know this. Adjust your headline accordingly. Do it now. And, in the future, don't print lies in the newspaper.

"The Trump administration has focused on restoring a "warrior ethos" to the Armed Services." - Axios

It is not within the presidents power to do this, quit writing headlines that say otherwise. Can you be any more in Trump's tank here? He can ask congress if he wants this.

Still will not erase he is multiple lister in the Book of Epstein.

No he won’t. That’s up to Congress.

WTF? Idiocy.

It is a projection of the spiritual war in their own tormented souls.

STOP being a damn stenographer @axios.com . Why are you parroting what a madman declares w/o explaining that only Congress can change the name?

"Donald the Dove"

Does he really have nothing better to do than sit around and dream this stuff up? I guess watching Fox News 8 hrs/day isn't helping. Someone get him a stack of paper and a Sharpie so he can pretend he's working...and remind him he needs Congress for this.

So it is finally time for Petey to start reading his tutorial .... 🙄😒

“Lethality”

Kind goes along with the current focus of blowing up Venezuelan fishing boats.

Because they’re bloodthirsty murderers

You are dumb.

📣 He can't! 📣 Thank you for your attention to this matter.

There is so much wrong with journalism...

Does he really think he scares anyone by changing its name 😂

That's not how that works, what the hell are you doing?

He has no authority to do this you idiotic bootlicking shills.

This lunacy from the DEI loyalists of the incompetent ignorant infantile imbecile fox news administration is clearly UNFIT for the job and woefully inadequet in every single way. National disgrace and international embarrasment

But I thought Trumpty Dumpty was the end all wars President?

Maybe the only good thing he’s ever done, although Department of War Crimes would be much more fitting but in politics is all about compromise.

You are objectively terrible at journalism. Why don’t you go ahead and write a story about how my nine-year-old thinks he’s king of the world it has the same practical reach and effect.

It's only illegal if the "supposed" party of Law and Order were to actually enforce the law and the order. I believe they've clearly shown us that laws don't apply to them, only us.

So he should totally get the Nobel Peace Prize.

What a fucking child.

Yet he has the National Guard picking up trash.

Bold move from the “anti-war” Nobel Peace prize seeker. Why stop there though? Why not Department Of Killing?

More macho posturing nonsense

These people can't run a country, only make it worse. Name changes? DEI? Natl Grd? Epstein? Tariffs?

why?

Will Trump’s cabinet be renamed the department of sycophantia?

Soon, they will all be named “Department of Trump.”

Department of War led by a war monger who wants a peace prize. Now that’s a real conundrum. Dementia hard at work.

Fuck off Axios, Trump can't do this.

That is ominous. He desperately wants to use a nuclear weapon.

Illegally

That should secure that Peace prize.😂😂😂

Amazing that the draft dodging coward pussy is pretending to be a tough guy and you all just along with it

Ni. He will sign an order saying he is giving it a nickname.

Such a beta cuck thing to do.

Pfft, that’s just window dressing instead of real work.

The mad TACO king has spoken. So shall it be written. So shall it be done!

Didn’t he literally say he was the President of peace?

Donald the Dove

How about restoring a competency ethos first?

JUST IN: I will rename Axios Dickheads, I confirmed.

LOL, I'm not American, I'm watching from afar and laughing at how easy it is for a former reality show star to capture your "democracy" while everyone cries "but it is illegal! 😭"

he only gets away with it because the failure of our media to outright say what he is trying to do is illegal every time he claims it

Yes, I probably don't get it. What do you guys want? It is all illegal, he cannot do any of the shit he's doing, and yet, he does it because nobody is stopping him from doing it, not because nobody told him it is illegal.

They just keep throwing shit at the wall to distract us where are moral military leaders? No one have a pair of balls?

Like Russia

joke’s on him it was already named that for the majority of US history

But too afraid to actually fight vs Russia

G’head and show us where he has this authority. Be specific. We’ll wait. Tick tock.

2). I wonder if Speaker Mike Johnson would be ok for his children to have to fight in a Trump war. Makes u think huh?

Make it make sense. Even the Constitution says “to protect….” This fools often refers to the dark days of US wars as “glorious”. All I have to ask the MAGA faithful, are u willing to send your son and daughter to battle, knowing the likelihood of coming home alive is minimal? I mean seriously.

When will Axios correct this story that meekly concedes that Trump can change the department’s name at his whim. He can’t. Only Congress could do that. This country is not just being let down by corporate media, we’re being betrayed by them.

Only Congress can change the name. Do better people…

Anything to detract from his bff Epstein and his exploits

Remember, Donnie the dove

Only Congress can do that and I’d appreciate it if you stopped kissing the ass of a daughter raping fascist because it’s good for ratings.
