Multiple allied intelligence officials have warned that Donald Trump’s handling of classified material has created an ongoing risk that sensitive information given to the US will end up in Moscow. Several allies have now limited, sometimes stopped, what they share with the US.

I don't know why we still call them ICE and treat them as a legitimate organization. They are an armed Militia and should be designated as a terrorist group. No other legal force in America wears masks and strips people of due process. They are a terrorist organization

I knew a guy who worked on a window project at the WH years ago. The bids took months, each tiny detail was excruciatingly strict, and security background checks for every worker took even longer.
No way this gilded ballsroom project is being done according to ANY required protocols.

Epstein Ballroom. That's what it is.
Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

Ben Meiselas calls on those with standing to act: seek an injunction to halt Trump’s White House ballroom. Argue fraud—Trump claimed he’d pay and not alter the structure—and use the damage to the East Wing as the emergency basis. Demand discovery now.
