Democrats should be drawing up legislation right now, this very minute, to bar Trump from helping himself to $230 million in taxpayer funds from DOJ. Challenge Republicans to hold a vote on it. Push this so hard in the media that every GOP Senate and House candidate is pressed to comment on it.
Trump is stealing cash from taxpayers who are falling behind on car and house payments, struggling to buy food, rationing medications, and going into debt to keep up with normal expenses.

Trump claimed his new 'ballroom' would not “interfere with the current building. It’ll be near it but not touching it and pays total respect to the existing building." Instead, Trump stood by and watched as East Wing was demolished. He COULD have intervened. Instead, Trump stood and watched.

Frogs in slowly heating water is a popular allegory for being unaware that you are being destroyed in an incrementally worsening situation.

But I'm drawing hope from the past week that we frogs may be a bit more aware of our situation than those allegorical frogs. #Hop

Yeah. So The White House
is designated a National Historic Landmark.

That means:

It’s formally recognized as having exceptional national historical significance.

Any substantial changes, demolitions, or new construction affecting it are tightly restricted.

It’s not his house! WTF.

If one truly wants to see how far down the road of totalitarianism we have already gone, just scroll the Dep't of Homeland Security's Facebook page. It is the most Orwellian stuff I have ever seen, never thought I would see in America.
Changes are supposed to be approved by a committee. They were not submitted to committee, nor was the paving of the Rose Garden. He thinks the People's House belongs to him.
Me, too. He not only lacks any appreciation of our history or what the White House represents, he cares not that The People's House belongs to all of us.

While we spectate on The East Wing being torn down, it isn’t just another hallway, it’s where Eleanor Roosevelt built the modern Office of the First Lady, where WWII bunkers were hidden, and where the public enters the People’s House. Erasing it is rewriting history.

What if everyone just decided to wear masks and jackets that say “ICE” on it? Maybe prompting the actual agents to properly identify themselves but also maybe because it would be funny.

Whatever you think of the White House as a building or a symbol, the fact is that the image of it being torn apart on a whim two days after 7 million people hit the streets against autocracy is going to make a HUGE amount of people really, really angry, and that's an energy that should be harnessed.

Thou shalt not support a man who bulldozes the White House to build himself a golden ballroom whilst the government is shut down because he doesn’t want the financial records tying him to Jeffrey Epstein to come out.
