Iron Dome for America gets a golden makeover
By Jen Judson

In a bit of verbal alchemy, the Pentagon is turning iron into gold.

The Midas touch of Pentagon bureaucracy has just hit President Trump’s “Iron Dome” missile defense shield, which shall be henceforth known as “Golden Dome.”


The billionaire president – known for his love of incorporating gold details into his own residential aesthetic – in his opening line of his inaugural address, promised a “golden age in America.”

Naturally, such an endeavor is best protected by a dome in matching colors.

Trump signed an executive order in January to develop a next-generation homeland missile defense shield.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
