I see that @whitehousehistory.bsky.social put out a statement yesterday stating that they were able to complete a “comprehensive digital scanning project” to document the East Wing, and that the historic artifacts have been preserved and stored.

Oct 22, 2025 Washington, D.C. —
Since 1961, the mission of the White House Historical Association has been to document and share the history of the White House while providing private, non-taxpayer funding to preserve and enhance the White House Collection of furnishings, fine art, and decorative objects, maintaining the museum standard set by our founder, First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy. While the Association has never had a role in reviewing or approving changes to the physical structure of the White House building, we remain dedicated to advancing the public’s understanding of The White House and its history — from when the cornerstone was set in 1792, to present — ensuring that all of its stories are preserved and shared for generations to come.

Upon announcement of the Ballroom construction project by the White House, the White House Historical Association supported the preservation of East Wing history through a comprehensive digital scanning project and photography to create an historic record. The East Wing and gardens have been captured in detail for the benefit of our nation and historic artifacts from the East Wing have been preserved and stored. The White House Historical Association was able to support swift completion of this important work thanks to the generous philanthropy of our donors.
November 1 marks 225 years since John and Abigail Adams moved into a White House that has undergone scores of changes and many additions over 47 presidencies. Our important role will continue with the support of thousands of Americans who cherish the historic White House and the history of those who have lived and worked there for 225 years.

This was always going to be a challenge for ICE, given that previous hiring drives—when the agency was facing FAR less public anger—had really struggled.

The more ppl keep protesting ICE and making the job socially toxic, the worse the recruiting problem will be for them.

In the audience tonight is Charlotte Bennett, one of the 13 women that Andrew Cuomo is credibly alleged to have sexually harassed while they worked in his government.

She can't speak for herself because Cuomo's lawyers have hounded her.

So I confronted him.

So much for relying on private data. Just as govt shutdown denies the Fed official jobs data, payroll processor ADP stops sharing its data with the Fed. via @wsj.com www.wsj.com/economy/cent...

Fed Lost Access to Private Jobs Data Ahead of Government Shutdown

Payroll processing firm ADP ended its data-sharing with the central bank after a speech highlighted the already-public collaboration.

The GOP religious trash don't read. Let me give it to you straight. Pigment is a reaction to UV radiation, race is a social construct, and there is only one species of modern human. Genetically, there is very, very little difference between humans

Merkley: "What we've seen is that democracies no longer die bc men w/guns go in and take it over. Instead, it's electeds who erode the separation of power. If you have a rubber-stamp Congress & courts that deliver more power to the executive, suddenly you have an authoritarian state. It's here now."

The only coherent through line in Trump’s economic policy is what’s in it for Donald and his friends.

Trump’s trade war hurt US farmers. Now he’s bailing out Argentina with $40B, half from US taxpayers, to help Milei’s midterms & Bessent’s hedge-fund friends.

Pure cronyism.

I think the ballroom story is gonna mushroom into a much much much much bigger thing. I see the visceral reaction people have towards the videos.

"My concern lies with the growing culture of censorship that threatens artists and institutions alike—an atmosphere where art that challenges, questions, or reflects difficult truths can too easily be silenced."

My painting was showcased at the Smithsonian. Donald Trump censored it.

Trump’s war on Latino art is an attempt to whitewash history.

I for one think the Epstein Ballroom will be magnificent. I love the decor theme of “what if Uday Hussein ran a Ramada Inn.” And giving it a theme song everyone will associate with it is a stroke of brilliance! “Thank Heaven for Little Girls” is very catchy.
