Why would you need to put a pause on a story that has been meticulously fact-checked and lawyered?

Those metallic letters in the correct font didn't happen overnight. This has been planned for a long time. So when Donald says he is "surprised" and "honored" by the name-change, he is lying. It was his plan all along.

Rob Reiner was right about Trump. He never backed down from opposing him for an instant. And he was right to do so.
Everyone with a heart and a conscience should hold that same tenacious position. They should fervently push back against this madness with every fiber of their being.
