The old rulebook is gone. It's not coming back and we all need to accept that. The DOJ is weaponized. the GOP is rigging elections. Trump is literally bulldozing the White House.

Democrats need to operate under this new reality, fight hard, and play by the same rules.

The East Wing was built in 1902 & rebuilt in 1942, long after asbestos was used as a fire retardant. So, I’m sure the White House took steps to prevent a known carcinogen from entering the air during the current willy-nilly demolition.

Kidding! These irresponsible assholes don’t care who they kill.

Meiselas: State regime media Fox News was crashing out last night as Donald Trump is crashing everything in the U.S. and literally desecrating the White House. With zero self-awareness, the Fox hosts were talking about how Hamburger Helper is making a comeback, as Americans can't afford groceries.

Whew‼️

The two longest government shutdowns in U.S. history both happened under Trump, which pretty much tells you everything you need to know about his version of “leadership.” Trump and #RepublicansAreAWOL

The DOJ, led by inexperienced Trump-appointed interim U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan, accused James of committing mortgage fraud and lying about a second home being rented out as an “investment property."

But their investigation has turned up information to the contrary. trib.al/yowhF3c
