New GOP Bill Seeks To Make Trump's Birthday A Federal Holiday—And Critics Are Livid

A new bill introduced by Republican Rep. Claudia Tenney is aiming to make June 14, which is currently Flag Day, "Trump’s Birthday and Flag Day."

If Republicans have their way, Donald Trump's birthday will become a national holiday, because of course it will. And people are understandably furious about it.

If it's not obvious by now, Donald Trump and everyone around him are basically trolls.


In the latest "I can't believe this is real life" news, Republican New York Representative Claudia Tenney's is now attempting to change the law in order to “designate Trump’s Birthday and Flag Day as a legal public holiday."

Flag Day, which is June 14, was adopted in 1777 to commemorate the day the American Flag became the official standard for the country. It is also Donald Trump's birthday.

It's frankly surprising he'd even be willing to share the holiday, but we all contain multitudes.

In a press release, Tenney said the day should become a joint holiday to honor Trump because:

“As both our 45th and 47th President, he is the most consequential President in modern American history, leading our country at a time of great international and domestic turmoil."
“Just as George Washington’s Birthday is codified as a federal holiday, this bill will add Trump’s Birthday to this list, recognizing him as the founder of America’s Golden Age."

This certainly sounds cultish, which is fitting since MAGA basically IS a cult.

Tenney went on to drool:

“By designating Trump’s Birthday and Flag Day as a federal holiday, we can ensure President Trump’s contributions to American greatness and the importance of the American Flag are forever enshrined into law.”

But that wasn't all. Representative Tenney was either REALLY committed to the bit or is deeply mentally ill, because she also created a bizarre Valentine for Trump to commemorate her proposed legislation.

Liberals are having none of Tenney's ridiculous stunt.




Democratic Representative Hakeem Jeffries swooped in an important reminder that it's a distraction by design.

Jeffries tweeted:

" Elon Musk and his minions want access to your bank account and medical information."
"Meanwhile."
"Extreme MAGA Republicans in the House have introduced a bill to make Donald Trump’s birthday a federal holiday."

Translation: Keep paying attention to the things that actually matter.

And to that end, go call your Congressional Representatives in Washington and let them know we aren't backing down any time soon.

Iranian state media and health officials said the strike occurred early Saturday morning in Minab, in the country’s southern Hormozgan Province.

Model Accuses Fashion Brand Of Using AI To Recreate Her Looks For Ad Instead Of Hiring Her

There used to be laws in place for someone's likeness being used without their consent, and most certainly if their likeness was being used in an exploitative way for profit.

But now with the rise of AI-generated photographs, advertisements, and other digital products, the lines seem to have become muddied between the illegal stealing of someone's likeness and AI "inspiration."

TikToker Secretly Records Unhinged Spectrum Employee Screaming At Her For Trying To Cancel Her Service

Employees in commission-based positions are feeling increasingly pressured to acquire new clients, retain previous clients, and solve the issues their clients call in about with high satisfaction ratings.

Even though tensions are high, and the pressure they're feeling may be unrealistic for any one person to take, that doesn't give them the right to mistreat people who do not want to sign up or want to cancel.
