Did anyone ever get to the bottom of whether appropriate asbestos mitigation occurred in the rushed tear down or are we just going to treat this as unknowable like so many other things with this president?
Even the architect Trump hired to build his massive addition to the White House objects to the president's vision. The two have argued about the size of the 90,000-sq-foot project that would dwarf the mansion. @jonathanreports.bsky.social @ddiamond.bsky.social www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Trump wants a bigger White House ballroom. His architect disagrees.
The president and James McCrery had argued in recent weeks over the project’s size, with Trump pushing him to expand the ballroom.

“Three economic reports canceled in a week—GDP, jobs, inflation—all gone. And the White House blames Democrats for sabotaging data… while Trump’s own agencies pulled the plug. The numbers are bad. Deportations and tariffs are wrecking the economy. So they just hide it. Pathetic.”

Leavitt’s assertion that all orders must be presumed to be legal is absurd on its face. However, it echoes the twisted logic of a secretive DOJ memo on the administration’s boat strike campaign, which reportedly suggests that Trump’s word alone is enough to establish legality for strikes.

Around 70% of the U.S. economy depends on consumer spending. As wealth concentrates in the richest 10%, the rest of America can’t afford to buy enough to keep the economy running.
This is a huge problem — and even America’s most powerful CEOs are starting to sound the alarm.
