Trump is such a hypocrite.
On the one hand, he complains about Canada. On the other hand, he gives the White House the Canadian treatment.

I LEARNED THE ANSWER TO THIS
Chris's Steakhouse was a New Orleans landmark
Chris Matulich periodically got bored, sold it, waited for the new owner to fail, and bought it back cheap
The sale conditions: Can't move it, can't change the name
He did this six times
Then he sold it to Ruth Fertel

My opinion? The issue isn't press passes, the issue is police behavior. When the police attack journalists who are clearly identified, including wearing press passes, giving out more of them won't help.

Zohran is stone cold man. Putting out an ad in Arabic after all the Islamophobic shit that’s been thrown his way? Pure swag.
Dems don’t need to copy his politics or even necessarily his campaign strategy, they need to learn how to grow a fucking spine.

This is something I’ve felt about the U.S. for a while. It was a shock to experience “real America”, that racist and small minded place, as a kid coming from living abroad my entire life on US bases.
I went from proudly American kid to “this is my passport” right quick.

Think about how grueling the generational struggle to build anything the Left wants. Meanwhile, Trump is allowed to just YOLO our entire society.
It is shocking that Trump is quickly tearing down a portion of the White House. But isn’t the bigger story that this action is of a piece with his autocratic presumption that he can unilaterally destroy public goods without any public consultation or explanation?
