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.

Bread is one of those things that most of us assume will be really difficult to make until we take a chance and test our abilities.

But the truth of the matter is, a simple, no-knead bread only has four ingredients: water, yeast, flour, and salt. Those four ingredients only need to be mixed in a bowl, covered, and left to rest for a few hours before baking and enjoying.
