“Bro, I have a brain!”
So simple yet so powerful. Let’s get to *this*
Oh yeah nice one kid hook that hope for humanity right into my veins
“stands out for… affinity for extremists” I don’t know why I’m still getting bowled over at the way people are just straight up fabricating shit

I'm not sure you can get more marie antoinette than taking away food stamps before thanksgiving while you build a gold and marble dance hall so the other crooks can bring bribe you over a badly-cooked (argentinian) steak

Families are already hanging by a thread, but the sad truth is it’s about to get a lot worse when SNAP benefits don’t go out in November.

It’s time to find our local food banks and help out with donations and volunteer hours if you are able.
Every county in NY will see spikes in ACA healthcare costs if Repubs keep lying about shutdown and refuse to negotiate. My Rep does not care. The only answers he likes to give are maga non-answers. I want someone better representing me. @aarongies.bsky.social is running to be that person

ICE agents greeted by a hero on arrival in New York this evening.

Make statues of this.
I haven’t heard anything
💯 agree. When normal, principled folks leave look who’s left. I respect their choice and I respect norms, oaths, loyalty etc but these aren’t normal times obv. So I wish ones who do leave would speak out, make big public stink about how f’ed up everything is, they could reach larger audience
I’m guessing you’ve read it but for anyone else The Death and Life of the Great Lakes is a great book that talks about all this stuff. Not overly dense or wonky, very readable
Not disagreeing with you but I thought it was interesting that the admiral in charge of overseeing the boat attacks just resigned all of a sudden
Sorry my comment refers to hos podcast interview which was linked in the article
It is a shame bc you’re right we do need good candidates - desperately - but if this guy can’t talk honestly about why it’s wrong he’s not the one
I don’t know man. He was so glib and seemingly not bothered and didn’t actually answer the question did he know it was nazi symbol. I bet he didn’t when he got it but just bc he’s had his shirt off at gym and beach for yrs and no one’s ever said anything doesn’t mean 💩
Ahhh ok good to know
Another Blueskyer sent me info below. Haven’t looked them up or called them yet. They’re the architects/designers:

The name of the firm that “designed” this fascist dancehall is McCrery Architects, Washington DC
Good point about other monuments. That stupid arch, who knows what they’ll knock down for that. If you want to call companies choosing to take this job:
ACECO Demo
301-588-0707
Clark Construction
301-272-8100
McCreary Architects in DC
(sorry only just learned about last one don’t have number)

Look for my post on this thread with phone numbers
I posted this elsewhere but want folks to know they can call demo company and lead construction company to voice opinions. I know businesses have to make money but these companies made a choice to take this particular job and we were told ballroom wouldn’t actually be connected to WH itself

Phones for the contractor.
I just called ACECO Demolition 301-588-0707 and left msg with operations dept
Also Clark Construction 301-272-8100 left msg in main voicemail box
Couldn’t get a human on the phone in either case but hopefully they’re getting an earful
