Why was there not public discourse about the East Wing? Oh yes, DJT said it would remain even as his HUGE ballroom was to be built adjacent.

DMNews columnist Mark Lamster tells the Dallas City Hall controversy best. Click link. www.dallasnews.com/arts-enterta...
Lamster: Keep your hands off Dallas City Hall
Why demolishing I. M. Pei’s iconic building would be a financial boondoggle and an architectural travesty.

While the nation reels at the demolishment of the East Wing of the White House (The People's House!), Big D is having a very public conversation about the potential demise of the architecturally significant Dallas City Hall, the iconic 1970s masterpiece by I.M. Pei.

It's not the worst thing this Administration has done this year, but visually it tells the story of what Trump is doing to our beloved country. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...
PHOTOS: White House starts East Wing demolition to build Trump's ballroom
The Republican president has said he's adding a 90,000-square-foot ballroom because the East Room, the largest room in the White House with an approximately 200-person capacity, is too small.

Fun to watch Lt Gov Patrick's irritation with being thwarted by the Gov's veto. The bill was Patrick's baby, after all. The last time the two sparred out loud was when Patrick tried to legislate how trans kids can use school bathrooms. Gov won that round, too.

Do not get too excited about change of heart! Gov Abbott followed this news with calling a special session of the Lege to create a better bill to heavily regulate THC so original bill does not get hung up in Courts. It's all about $$ and not hurting Texas economy.

THC ban in Texas: Governor Abbott vetoes one of the most restrictive bills of its kind in the country | CNN
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott vetoed a bill Sunday to ban all THC consumables, allowing the booming market flush with THC-infused vapes, gummies and other products to continue to be sold across the state.

I was born and raised in Fort Worth and sister Marty lives in an adjacent suburb. I am glad we chose that No Kings event! It was great, and I hope other Texas cities' events were as exciting!

Thousands gathered in Downtown Fort Worth for the No Kings protest today (June 14), including the parade of marching Handmaids to support women's rights! Signs waved by demonstrators crowded into the city block of Burk Burnett Park were abundant, protesting Trump administration actions.

This country is already in a Civil War - a Cold Civil War. Question: Will DJT ordering the National Guard to the peaceful protests in LA - and possibly the US Marines - become the spark for a HOT Civil War? We can't let that happen! Do not be afraid to speak up! Make good trouble!

Waterless and torn-up "dancing waters" fountain on the Esplanade at Dallas Fair Park sadly illustrates how badly this historic jewel of a park with its many venues has crumbled into disrepair. Robert Wilonsky has a great article in today's Dallas Morning News detailing why. (Dallas News Photo)

If any one bill sums up the Trump47 fiscal agenda for all Americans, it is the so-called "beautiful "bill passed this week by the US House of Representatives as controlled by the GOP. It is actually "ugly" for most Americans! It now goes to the Senate. Contact your two US Senators to OPPOSE it.

Do not believe what T47 says. Here's another example of a big lie....

"Verb: 86
1.eject or bar (someone) from a restaurant, bar, etc. "they were accused of cheating, and eighty-sixed from their favorite casino."
2.reject, discard, or cancel.
"the passwords will be 86ed by next October"

A 13-year-old $400million jet that will cost a bil$ion+ (and several years) to renovate for Presidential security etc. From a foreign dignitary whose gifts usually have long strings attached. Yeah, go for it, 47! Maybe we can still see impeachment stick to DJT. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

Looks like the Musk-T47 fraud checker for Social Security has done more harm than good, no surprise there. I suspect history will show it's not the only T47 MAGA program to crash and burn after being cheered about. Daily Beast lays out the SSA debacle today. www.yahoo.com/news/doge-fr...

Quoting Bill Betzen, Dallas, longtime fellow activist friend, here: "Using our freedom of speech rights is the best way to fight the massive evil assaulting the U.S.!"
So true. Staying "neutral" is actually supporting any evil among us. Which side of history do you want to be on?

Step one! Oppose this effort: Your colleagues in Congress are drafting a bill to cut clean energy & climate action to pay for billionaire tax breaks. Are they nuts?! Do they not realize our Gulf coastal region is in distress? Plus we should be raising taxes on billionaires to reduce our deficit.
