Take a look behind the White East (north) at Lafayette Square. It is GONE. Somehow it is now part of the $1.5 billion plus "ballroom" project.
TRUMP, Jan 2026, on Lafayette Square: told aides he wants them [brick walkways] repaved to remove loose bricks he fears could be picked up and hurled during protests, according to people familiar with internal discussions cited by the Post.
Trump fenced the square off from the public a few months ago.
There is a "secret" White House tunnel system (since 2007, George W. Bush) that seems to now include Lafayette Square.
We get a beautiful ballroom at no cost. It's a win-win.
And when will you and your significant other be dancing in said ballroom "you will be getting"?
It was funded via donations. It also could be funded via Tariffs if America-hating courts hadn’t banned Trump from making America wealthy again. From the tariff shelf

remember that Lafayette Sq is where trump used force to remove peaceful protesters so he could hold a bible upside down for a photo op.
that's the one miley apologized for being a part of.
trump claiming yet more public space, in a form of revenge theater.
I firmly believe that anyone could win a primary or general presidential election (GOP or Democratic) by simply promising to bring in bulldozers to end each Trump vanity project on day one.
These projects are polling negatively by 70-80%. But judging by yesterday's cabinet meeting, Trump truly lives in a bubble where people are telling him that everything he does is wonderful and loved by all.

I think a lot of it is that trump knows he is failing in actual governing. Anemic econ growth, very high inflation, losing a major war, massive lack of popularity, about to get creamed in midterms...
so he is going to his safe place. the thing he actually does pretty well: getting things built. Cutting through the red tape and building things. He's always been pretty good at that, because he is mean and refuses to follow the rules and ethics.
Her case was funded by Reid Hoffman. That is a verified fact. She lied about everything.
If you were an intelligent human being, you would recognize that this is a criminal "investigation". And you would quickly recall that the DOJ- FBIhas a long standing policy of not announcing criminal investigations. But that was before Trump. During Trump 2.0 the criminal investigation leaks and formal announcements are weapons. They are designed to build narratives. Harass enemies of Trump. And to scare anyone from every blowing whistles on Trump's crimes.
But as a Trumper we can see that they worked on you.

Building insane vanity projects that citizens don't want is very common in crackpot authoritarians as the circle the drain. Trumps psychosis is not new here.
and enduring image of what piggie is doing to our nation. leaving the dignified colonial architecture a crater with a crappy temporary circus attached.
“The Pope is a good man, he’s sincere in his faith, but he’s sincerely wrong when it comes to Iran...It looks like President Trump has a better understanding of what the Bible teaches than the Pope.”
Just an amazing 180 degree flip from maga that Socialism is now good, if piggie does it. That one honestly blows my mind. They embrace Socialism now. Is there anything they wouldn't flip on, if the pig did it?
"The Trump administration is pursuing funding deals with a group of drone companies as part of its effort to increase domestic production and lower the costs of the increasingly vital weapons, people familiar with the matter said."
Faux patriot Trumpers decided that it was OK for Trump to mock POW John McCain (and, in fact, ALL POWs) over 10 years ago. We knew no later than then that faux patriot Americans would excuse ANYTHING for their side. And, incredibly, THEIR SIDE was and is led by a draft-dodging silver spooner amoral criminal (....and yeah, stupid and incompetent, too).

Why did Trump appoint so many America-hating Supreme Court justices? Is he a bad judge of character?
The Trump sons are heavily invested in drone companies. Which companies will get the best deals?
US military laden down by very expensive drones of dubious quality and utility, while the grifting sons of Trump get rich.
US should go into partnership with Ukrainian companies to produce drones for the modern battlefield. These are actually tested in warfare against a qualified military enemy: Russia.
Ukraine is training European NATO countries in drone warfare as they are experts in this.
Zelensky to Trump: "How are your cards looking NOW, bloated orange incompetent bully?"

I saw yesterday that Maine Nazi sitting in an interview with Bernie. He was saying that millionaires “hoard” money. And that he thinks they should give that money to other people. Over 80% of those identified as millionaires on the stock market are self made, in other words they built themselves up from scratch by being personally responsible
Sitting next to the Communist brown shirt was a smug, smiling Bernie.
He has 3 homes. One is on Lake Champlain ( is that how you say it?) How many homes does a socialist need? Lake Champlain? Hey Bernie can I borrow some Grey Peuppon????
Newsflash: Possible hypocrite Senator <<<<< (........) bad than sitting dictator wannabe.
Speaking of Russian trolls. I wonder about all those MAGS loving Putin Symps that flooded the Russia war thread predicting that Ukraine was finished. Especially now that Russia is getting oil resources bombed, economy crashing and Putin cuts the internet.
I don’t dare bump that thread to see. But Adolt was one of the top 5.
yeah that guy said a million times 'there is no possible way ukraine wins'
ukraine hasn't won yet, but they are winning.
"Mr. Zelesnsky, that slick-haired Petey from America called AGAIN about drones. I told him that you were busy, indefinitely."
