If the statute of limitations hasn't run out by then, the next D administration needs to make an example of the contractors doing this work. Show there are consequences for being complicit.

I wish Democrats would put out a statement “any contractors involved in defacing, damaging, or illegally constructing structures on public property can look forward to being hauled in for Congressional hearings and possibly being charged.” Scare every contractor in Washington.

I keep hearing this illegal which is crazy because when a homeless person sleeps on a public bench, there’s no shortage of cops harassing them but seemingly no one has any authority over the defacing of a federal building.

It's so weird that the "surprise" "vote" happened yesterday but they had the external lettering, tarps, and crew all ready to go.
Breaking News: Workers began adding President Trump’s name to the Kennedy Center, despite no action by Congress to legally rename it. This sparked outrage among the Kennedy family, since it was built to be a living memorial to the 35th president.

Kennedy himself fuel a measles epidemic by exploiting a tragic accident to conduct a "natural experiment" in Samoan children. 83 people died, mostly kids under the age of five. He seeks his own goals by stepping over the bodies of another country's children

Experts saw Samoa's plunging vaccination rates as a crisis. RFK Jr. saw an opportunity.
New details show how Robert F. Kennedy Jr., then chair of an anti-vaccine group and now Trump’s pick for health secretary, sought to exploit a deadly vaccine accident.

For example, there was this hydroxychloroquine study in Brazil done in part by Harvey Risch at Yale. He thinks ivermectin can cure cancer. At least he tells people that to sell them ivermectin. He is now chair of the Presidential National Cancer Program

How MAGA Used Problematic Research From Brazil To Push False Covid Cures
When research didn’t support Trump’s pandemic “game changer” claims in 2020, his administration went to Brazil. Today, Trump’s “gold standard” anti-science HHS mirrors Bolsonaro's.

This is not the first time RFK Jr or his fellow anti-vax travelers conducted a study they knew would harm or kill children in low-income countries. It is a dehumanizing, colonialist model of manufacturing evidence: sacrificing foreign kids for political pseudoscience.

He never disclosed that he’d visited Epstein in that column and did a lot of hand waving to insist that he and his fellow elites had nothing, nothing at all to do with him.
