Seems funny that we (the people of the U.S.) functioned without a federal paramilitary force for 250 years.

Democrats are furious that the Trump Administration held a briefing on Capitol Hill today about U.S. military strikes on suspected drug boats. Only Republicans were invited. This is from Sen. Mark Warner D-VA.

By proceeding with the demolition of the White House East Wing before seeking approval from federal agencies for a new ballroom, President Donald Trump forced the issue. It's a strategy known as "stake-driving."

President #Zelenskyy :

russian drone strike on a #Kharkiv kindergarten: 1 killed, 7 injured; all children evacuated but many suffer acute stress.

No justification for attacking civilians. russia’s aggression defies peace efforts—only force can stop terrorists.

The #Kharkiv mayor showed how children were evacuated from a kindergarten that was hit by three Russian Shahed drones.

Fortunately, the teachers managed to take the kindergarteners to the shelter in time, and as soon as rescuers reached the basement, all 48 children were evacuated.

As one of the landlords, I am upset with these tenant improvements.
Trump is destroying this portion of the White House complex for his twinkle-toed dancing ballroom.

Paul Ingrassia, Trump’s nominee to lead the office investigating Jack Smith, has recently been investigated for harassing a colleague, Politico reports.

“Eventually the woman discovered that Ingrassia had arranged ahead of time to have her hotel room canceled so she would have to stay with him..”

You can joke about Pam Bondi’s ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but I’m deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. — This should shake everyone to their core.

Just so everyone is crystal-clear, this is NOT related to the government funding because the USPTO is self-funded.
"Hours after government funding lapsed, the Patent and Trademark Office began firing personnel, according to an internal email and interviews with staff. The fired personnel are people in business support units, such as communications, according to the staffers NOTUS spoke with."
NEWS: Government layoffs are coming in the next few days, sources tell us. Preparation is underway at the agencies, and RIFs have already started at the US Patent Office.

White House is blaming Dems for the firings, even though nothing about a shutdown requires mass firings.
