They should also be raising hell about using the donations in the first place. Using private funding to bypass (or supplement) Congressional appropriations violates the Antideficiency Act.

Flashgitz is the most Poe thing in the 40K universe, because if you wanted to make a cartoon satirizing the most toxic parts of the fan base, you'd pretty much wind up with Space King.

I think it stopped qualifying as a "remodel" when the structure ceased to exist.

Saying, "it rewards illegal behavior in a manner no drafter or ratifier of the Citizenship Clause endorsed," tries to skirt the fact that there were no immigration controls when the Citizenship Clause was drafted and ratified. The clause was written to include everyone, because they were all legal.

"What the hell is 'Rocket Docket?'"

They are doing both. The George HW Bush is literally cruising off the coast of Virginia for a training operation right now. If it was just about a deck, there were ones that were closer and less disruptive to global operations.

Yeah, my first question when they started demo was how much of that stuff was going to turn up missing in the post-debacle audit.

I think they literally grabbed him for his cane going over the blue line.

Just as a little additional information, the Ford is currently in the Adriatic Sea off the coast of Croatia. They are moving it a third of the way around the world for no better reason than because it's the biggest ship we have, and Trump/Hegseth want to show everyone how big and strong they are.

Wait until she hears that the Republican Congressmen she's most likely to agree with on something are Ron Paul's son and a racist conspiracy theorist who once ranted about Jewish space lasers.

The White House East Wing has been completely demolished. The demolition is basically at the main White House walls.

Mamdani signal boosting the endorsement is an absolutely beautiful troll.

Note the lawn around the East Wing was already dead a month ago (but the South Lawn was still fine).

Torven @torven42.bsky.social · 3d

If you hadn't posted it, I would have.

Torven @torven42.bsky.social · 3d

September 26 vs Today. Look at the East Wing's landscaping compared to the South Lawn. It looks like they had already cut the water. Demolishing the entire thing was always the plan.

Torven @torven42.bsky.social · 3d

Including the Jackie Kennedy Garden.

Honestly, this rather explains a lot.

*Tentatively raises hand.*

I mean, my memory isn't great, but I think I'd have remembered at least some of that.

Earlier today, the White House announced they would be submitting the construction plans for approval, but went on to argue that this didn’t need any approval because demolition is not construction. I wish I were joking.
