The reversal by Trump in its suddenness is telling. How can it be assured that the documents in DOJ possession haven't been tampered with, redacted, scrubbed, etc?

I'm sorry, but is anyone else's gaydar going off when you see "Operation Southern Spear," being announced? Like, seriously? Who approved that?(the name, but also the operation)

So let me get this straight. If tariffs are taxes, all that revenue was from we the people. Getting a refund of $2000 back for each person would eliminate that tax profit (and undermine their whole point in doing this). I don't know, I think that they're scared of something.

Here's a question no one seems to be asking: why did Trump not just convert the Kennedy Center to his "ballroom?" He made himself chairman, he's previously teased about changing the name, and it's already a built venue. Of course, we already know the symbolism and the timing of this vanity...

If demolishing the East Wing of the White House reminds Trump of money, is that because he's wrecking it beyond comprehension?

Here's a question: how much damage to the White House was done by the British in the War of 1812 (percentage wise to the amount of building there) compared to what is being done now?

It's a good thing the blueprints for the White House are well-preserved and in duplicate. We will need them. @reppaultonko.bsky.social @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov I ask for legislation that requires the full restoration, and Congressional oversight to any changes to our house

The only restitution that I can see for the damage done to the East Wing is to pass a bill preventing vanity projects to government buildings without approval from Congress. There is an office to oversee such projects, but was overlooked. Whoever comes next should erase all changes done by Trump.

I was talking to a coworker today who told me that she got a disney+ account just to delete it. In my head I was like, "wait, you just paid them money you weren't planning to...in order to deny them future payments?" I will hold a mirror to ridiculousness on both sides, but that was akin to tylenol.

Notice how everyone but Jimmy Kimmel is making statements regarding his ouster? I'm pretty sure that's deliberate, as it is the kind of thing you do before filing a lawsuit.

Regarding Giuliani: Is celebrating a person's injury (no matter what you think of them) an act of decency? Remember when Paul Pelosi was attacked, and how the other side responded with jokes. Do people who purport to care for others really wish to do the same?

Snoop Dogg not taking his grandchildren to a movie is not pivotal news, nor is it a betrayal of the left or a victory of the right. One person is making a choice about how he spends his time with family. As a bi person, I would not take my parents to a gay bar for a wonderful outing.

If the police in Orlando are going out of their way to arrest people for coloring in a crosswalk - it says more about them than anything else. One has to think in the kind of Boss Hogg style that they do. Why not color the sidewalks 100 yards in both directions? I don't think there's a law for that.
