🇺🇸 I don't want to overstate this, but any testimony from Jack Smith into Trump's attack on America would be a bombshell that would rock this country.
It is vital we know what led to Jan. 6, and Trump's part in it.
One way or the other, this MUST come out, and I salute Smith for coming forward.

Reporter: The president had initially said that this project wouldn't interfere with or touch the current structure.

Leavitt: If you look at the renderings, it's very clear the east wing was going to be modernized.

Reporter: But modernizing and tearing down are two different things.

Q: Can the president tear down anything he wants without oversight? Could he demolish this building or the Jefferson Memorial?

LEAVITT: Only for vertical construction will a submission be required.

Q: So it sounds like the answer is yes

Seriously?
This is King Donald’s priority.
Destroy OUR White House and build a gaudy, tasteless ballroom that he can grift off of.
That’s it.
That’s his priority.
Hey MAGA- you peasants should just buy trump swag and eat cake. Because he doesn’t give a shit about you.

WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.

Trump is importing so much Argentinian beef that the ‘chopped steak’ he so proudly serves his guests is now called carne mechada. He f*cked you good cattle ranchers, you knew would and voted for him anyway, cause, well, you know ‘Merica.

I can’t believe this.
How depraved are these, vindictive, cruel, gross people?
Just slime every last one of them. They are not only destroying the physical White House, the Rose Garden… they are laying low our dignity as a nation.

Oh, look! The Supreme Court is thinking about revisiting Obergefell v. Hodges. Because apparently, ten years of legal clarity, millions of happy couples, and basic human decency aren’t enough. Maybe love is optional now?
