It’s okay, guys.
There isn’t enough sage in America.
We’ll build a new executive mansion.
The White House will be his tomb.
That’s the deal.

I’m disgusted by the photos of Ttump’s demolition at the East Wing, but I’m even more sickened by the renderings of his mar-a-lago ballroom dwarfing our White House. Once we’re rid of this despicable man, that ballroom must also be removed.

Thei wante us talkinge alone on our phones to a demon thei created, and not goinge places and being wyth each othir yn art and joy and communitye. Thei want cinemas to shut downe, and broadwaye to go darke. Thei want wryteres to stop writinge. Thei want to sell us hell and have us pay for it.

He can control the DOJ. The IRS. The FBI.
But not the foreign banks about to expose his money trail.👇

Presidents don't own the WH, they are tenants, caretakers while they are in office. This monstrosity he is building will be almost twice as large as the rest of the White House, his own personal shrine to himself, where his sycophants can come and worship him at his tacky Versailles-on-the-Potomac.

THE WH is a “designated historic landmark”.

A Prez has ZERO AUTHORITY to alter it.

RFK Jr, arguably one of the most dangerous & extreme conspiracy theorists on the planet, has dedicated much of his life to damaging public health globally

Gift link from NYT: www.nytimes.com/2024/11/30/w...

How Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Fights Health Policy Abroad:
He undermined confidence in the measles vaccine ahead of a deadly outbreak in Samoa.
He and his organization promote AIDS falsehoods.
He aligned himself with fringe figures, including people who ended up on German security watch lists.
His European chapter paid a British lawmaker to speak at a conference promoting vaccine skepticism.
His Africa chapter pushes measles misinformation and risky remedies.

I just went to the House floor to demand that Speaker Johnson swear in Adelita Grijalva, but the GOP gaveled out without even recognizing us.

We’re not going anywhere. I’m here with Leader Jeffries and Adelita Grijalva. Speaker Johnson must swear her in.

I am completely awestruck by the ease with which Mike Johnson lies on a daily basis. I'll never understand how such a transparently fraudulent "man of faith" can live with themselves. Life is too short to be that phony.

Ignore all laws about altering historic properties ✅
Pave over Rose Garden for tacky Mar-A-Lardo Patio ✅
Demolish East Wing after lying that "It won't interfere with the current building. It'll be near it but not touching it" ✅
Build gaudy $250M Ballroom as public struggles financially ✅
