The East Wing was built in 1902 & rebuilt in 1942, long after asbestos was used as a fire retardant. So, I’m sure the White House took steps to prevent a known carcinogen from entering the air during the current willy-nilly demolition.
Kidding! These irresponsible assholes don’t care who they kill.

The rule that the Speaker of the House has sole discretion as to when members of Congress are sworn-in to office is obviously flawed AF.
Once election results are recognized and certified, any active judge should be allowed to swear representatives into office.
