ndstudio.gov, trumprx.gov, realfood.gov and trumpaccounts.gov

I would not use those sites if you have any agency in the matter, or any federal government websites if you could, until it's been shown that all the DOGE inserted garbage is removed

Those websites sound like 100% phishing sites. And how is "trump" even a string that should be part of a .gov website?

That's easy to answer. mushroom dick got jealous of everyone calling the affordable care act "obama-care". The orange dipshit probably thought it was literally called that so he made sure his healthcare shitfuckery was branded with his own name to one up obama.

So mostly it's because obama lives rent free in his head.

My first reaction as well, I was like are you sure those are government sites, well I guess they are now. I guess it shouldn't be a surprise. What is a surprise is that people are witnessing the president who still makes very important decisions act like toddler ever day and no one seems to care

*.gov is currently blocked at my firewall...nothing they do is safe.

Aayyy, Big Balls is back! Guess he didn’t learn his lesson the first time.

His first lesson should've been his last.

Trump's name is synonymous with "Scam", and now even more so.

I highly recommend anyone needing to use these websites to do so from the library
