I'm not a West Wing obsessed lib or anything but the more I see pictures of this the more fucked up I think it is. It's like he cut off one of the hands of the Lincoln memorial with an angle grinder so he could add a big gun to it.
The Treasury Department instructed employees not to share to share photos of the demolition of parts of the White House’s East Wing
Exclusive | Treasury Tells Employees Not to Share Photos of White House Ballroom Construction
Images of the demolition of parts of the East Wing went viral on Monday, and Treasury’s headquarters next door to the White House has a front-row seat.

The real issue isn’t left vs right.
It’s not white vs black.
It’s not citizen vs immigrant.
It’s not gay vs straight.
The real issue is that a lot of powerful people have a vested interest — and a lot of money invested — in dividing us, and it’s working.

Pretty clear that a lot of people jumped the gun on the motive behind Kirk’s assassination. The shooter:
1. Grew up in a Republican family
2. Donated to Donald Trump
3. Loved guns
4. Was steeped in Groyper culture
This isn’t a simple “raging leftist hated Kirk” scenario.

In Trump's view, right-wing radicals are justified and their concerns are worthy of radicalization. People on the other side are the problem and their reasons for being radical are unjustified.

NOT NEWS. First, it's Michelle Bowman, who has advocated for rate cuts since she was born. Second, she knows NOTHING about economics.
She only got on the Federal Reserve's board because her bank-owning family made a huge donation to the Trump campaign in Kansas.

This: weasel words used and her credibility is rightly questioned.
On left:
ABC: Ghislaine Maxwell told "Blanche that Trump had never done anything in her presence that would have caused concern."
On right:
Maxwell said same about Epstein, under oath.
DOJ 2022: "Simply put, the defendant lies when it suits her."
Whatever is the truth, she's no source for it.
