Agreed

He’s building something that’ll just be summarily demolished when he’s gone, as in this century—unlike prior ones—America mustn’t let sexual-predator insurrectionists build monuments to themselves, especially not when they take a wrecking ball to the People’s House (sans permission) to do it
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.

I’m less concerned about part of the White House being torn down, and more concerned about the fact that it’s being replaced with a $250m privately funded ballroom. I don’t think people who intend to leave office in 3 years typically spend a quarter of a billon on a 4 year construction project.

Why were those cases dismissed?

He won the election.

Not Insufficient evidence
Not a weak case
Not a witch hunt

He WAS CONVICTED in one case, and seemed extraordinarily likely to be convicted in the other three based on the mountain of evidence in the indictments

‘The Diplomat’ on Netflix:
*SPOILER ALERT* ‼️ The president basically eats himself to death on junk food. It actually cheered me up.
I get hope I will receive texts from EVERYONE blasting my phone if it happens while I am asleep...
Isn’t it wild that you can simply ask, ‘Is he dead yet?’ and everyone knows who you’re talking about.

Hitler had a large ball room/ reception hall built at the Old Reich Chancellery in Berlin This was part of a major renovation of the building after he became Chancellor. It was designed by Albert Speer and completed in 1939

Look, folks, he's the *Speaker* of the House, not the Listener of the House or the Watcher of the House.

You can't expect him to be aware of major events that are unfolding right before him.
I have an idea!! RELEASE THEM and show us all how wrong we were???
Bondi put 1000+ personnel on finding and tagging Trump’s name in the Epstein files. There were training videos showing them how. I’ve filed a FOIA for those videos and have sued the government to get them.
Mike Johnson: "Suddenly now, they've somehow convinced themselves that the Epstein files will be damaging to President Trump and Republicans in some way that they've imagined, and so they feign outrage."

No Kings organizers just announced they are planning a THIRD round of historic marches after Trump melted down over last weekend’s protests.

Apparently there are random Philly row homes subject to stricter historical modification rules than *checks notes* the White House?

WOW. A third of ICE recruits can’t pass a fitness test that I do multiple times a week, and I’m a 51 year old woke cat lady with a nose ring who loves a soy latte.

cutting cancer funding and a 1,000,000,000,0000X increase in ballroom and giant plane funding
Trump's manspreading ballroom he's adding onto the White House, which he said would be built for $100M and entirely with private funds, now reportedly will cost many times that. If so, then the government will also be paying bigly for it. How bigly?

As much as $100M bigly. In lost tax revenue. 🤦🏻‍♂️
It’s the least of the problems, but Trump’s cost projections for this thing have gone from $100 million to $200 million to $250 million.

He wanted to fire the Fed chairman for alleged cost overruns on their construction projects. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Congrats

The new season of the Diplomat is sublime. Kerri Russell remains unimpeachable.
You've got to admit... for a "dementia-riddled man" who doesn't know his own name, Biden was pretty perceptive and active! Or are they gonna say it was the left's version of Herr Miller et al who were running the place?
Oh, great. Our “intelligence” Chief is going after something that doesn’t exist. These people should never work again.

You cannot on one hand say you prioritize teaching reading and on the other deny access to the school library. It’s educational malpractice.

This story is incredible
EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.

I glanced down at the message.

“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.

So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

I have paid, *counts fingers*, $8,000+ in medical expenses in the last two years because of stuff like MRI exams, a surgery for pre-cancerous cells, three months of physical therapy, plus other medical appointments. I have already exceeded this year's FSA maximum. I am under 40.
DeSantis said “Most people, particularly under 50, what they really need is a catastrophic plan that’s affordable, where then they can pay whatever they’re doing out of a health savings account.”

'Catastrophic care' should be enough for them.
