PHOTOS: White House starts East Wing demolition to build Trump's ballroom
The Republican president has said he's adding a 90,000-square-foot ballroom because the East Room, the largest room in the White House with an approximately 200-person capacity, is too small.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social It's one thing to try to even up score in congressional seats.

But citizens who want to vote for seats Democrats seek, are likely to face intense scrutiny, intimidation.

Even if Democrats re-take House will tRump create a repeat insurrection or seat them?

Oops.

"Republicans want (bad outcomes) them to happen. Drastic cuts in food stamps and health care programs were central planks in Project 2025... But the consequences of these cruel intentions weren’t supposed to be this obvious, this early."

Once again, if Trump really wanted to sanction Russia, he has an ideal vehicle crying out to be used; the Graham-Blumenthal act. However, he will not even allow Senate Republicans to vote on it. The only conclusion is that he really does not want to hurt Putin

If the Justices with golden tongues and legal brilliance can't convince the MAGA Justices of the immorality of some of their most egregious votes, what chance does democracy have? Eventually every horrible tRump impulse & decision lands at the Supreme Court.

If i had stress of not knowing how i was going to pay for food, for housing, i truly don't know how i'd be able to concentrate on such stressful work. But at least tRump has golden tchotchkes in his office & a new golden ballroom coming.

But such a shame Cinderella will be to too hungry to dance.

It's good to know that tRump's big, not-so-beautiful bill helped someone.

Shame that it wasn't the people who really NEEDED the help.

Dr. Marvin Dunn got mad. So he did something about it: he sued to stop the transfer of land from Miami-Dade College to the Trump Presidential Library Foundation.

We also discuss why we’ve got to “get in the way” of those who are trying to rewrite our history.

Rep. Clay Higgins of Louisiana blames SNAP recipients for not stockpiling a month's worth of food.

He ends his tweet with "stop smoking crack."
Rep. Clay Higgins: There are 22 million American households receiving SNAP benefits for groceries, at $4200 per year on average. Try to get your head wrapped around how many pantries you can stock with $4200 dollars in properly shopped groceries. Any American who has been receiving $4200 dollars per year of free groceries and does NOT have at least 1 month of groceries stocked should never again receive SNAP, because wow, stop smoking crack.
