The National Capitol Planning Commission is meeting to discuss Trump's tacky ballroom project.
This project is riddled with conflicts of interest, pay-to-play government contracts & dropped enforcement actions against donors.
Protesters gathered against this outrageous project.
Someone placed a $553,000 Polymarket bet that Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, would be out of power just before he was killed.
Who made this bet? Did they have prior knowledge of the military action?
At MINIMUM we need transparency & oversight of these abominable markets.
Ladies and gentleman: Trump's new nominee to be DHS Secretary.

GOOD RIDDANCE ALERT: Famed dog killer Kristi Noem has been fired as DHS Secretary.
Just imagine being too deranged, corrupt and incompetent for this ridiculously deranged, corrupt and incompetent administration 🫠
Trump said that we could be at war with Iran for a month or longer.
An endless horror show of death and destruction.
How is it that we always have the money for bombs & wars of choice, but never enough to fund Medicare for All???

3 of Trump's cronies are on the commission that will likely rubber-stamp the ballroom project.
These unqualified, Trump-appointed individuals are a marine ecologist, political operative, & a lawyer.
None have the necessary city planning experience to serve on this commission.
Yesterday, Kristi Noem told the Senate that DHS's $220 MILLION taxpayer funded TV ad was competitively bid.
Today, she told the House it was a no-bid contract.
She completely contradicted herself.
How is the public supposed to trust a “leader" who lies under oath?
The Pentagon is set to ask Congress for $50 BILLION to fund Trump's war on Iran.
This won't be a one time ask.
It opens the door for Trump to bloat the Pentagon at the drop of a hat.
Not another penny for Trump's illegal & unnecessary war.
This war needs to end, NOW!
Kristi Noem didn't just waste your taxpayer dollars on a luxury DHS jet.
She also fired a Coast Guard pilot for not moving her blankie to her fancy new plane.
This isn't "leadership" - it's a temper tantrum.
Noem lacks the maturity to lead DHS

Kash Patel fired FBI counterintelligence staffers responsible for monitoring threats from Iran.
He did this just before Trump launched this insane war due to their involvement in the FBI's investigation of Trump's classified documents scandal.
This admin is a threat to our nation’s safety.
Trump didn't let his illegal war upend his social calendar.
This weekend, he attended a $1 million per-plate fundraising dinner to support MAGA Inc.
This is unprecedented behavior for a President who cannot legally run again.
This is alarming for a guy who clearly thinks he’s above the law.
Arresting citizens. Detaining children. Unlawfully breaking into homes.
ICE continues to violate court orders & terrorize our communities.
Noem's leadership of DHS irresponsible and reckless.
She must resign.
Senator Tillis said what every GOP Senator should have said during Kristi Noem's Senate hearing.
Noem's management of ICE and CBP is a disgrace.
Her leadership is full of bad decisions that have led to the death of Americans.
Trump said he's settled 8 wars.
Here's a reality check:
A) No you didn't.
B) Americans are dying in another imperial & completely avoidable war of choice that you just started.
Kristi Noem's DHS spent $220 MILLION of your taxpayer dollars on a TV advertisement that features Noem.
But the grift doesn't stop there.
The DHS Assistant Secretary husband's company won part of the contract.
This self-enriching agency continues to breach public trust.
Kristi Noem said there were "no plans" to have ICE officers at polling locations.
But she would not explicitly say that DHS has ruled it out.
Voter intimidation is illegal.
If ICE is at our polls - it will be a federal crime.
The bedroom on the DHS private jet is nicer than the bedrooms in many working Americans' homes.
This is an unnecessary, disgusting misuse of our taxpayer dollars.
There is no feasible explanation as to why ANY public official would need this level of luxury.
Noem's ICE has violated over 200 court orders in the last two months.
This lack of compliance is unprecedented and dangerous.
The courts are forcing DHS to comply because Noem thinks she only has to follow the rulings "when they apply."
Noem is not above the law.
DHS Secretary Kristi Noem is dangerous.
Her DHS is killing American citizens, authorizing warrantless home invasions, and violently targeting peaceful protesters.
In today's hearing, Senators must press Noem on her violent and lawless agency.
Trump doesn’t care that his own White House tried to backtrack on his loony idea to “nationalize” our elections because he keeps repeating it.
The man wants to undermine our democracy and “take over” voting.
When Trump makes authoritarian threats, believe him!
Tesla made $5.7 BILLION in 2025.
It paid $0 in federal income tax.
This is the SECOND year in a row that the company paid zero income tax despite making a massive profit.
The system is rigged.
Trump has launched a war of aggression on Iran without congressional approval.
The man who has dubbed himself worthy of a Nobel Peace Prize has started yet another deadly & avoidable regime change war.
Congress must act now to end this illegal & unconstitutional aggression.
Trump's new plan for the Affordable Care Act could increase family deductibles to $31,000.
Millions of Americans already struggle to afford insurance in our broken health care system.
Trump's plan screws over the most vulnerable Americans.
The Pentagon wants to use Anthropic AI for killer robots & mass surveillance.
Anthropic said no.
The Pentagon then threatened to label Anthropic a risk if it doesn't comply.
This is Black Mirror-level dystopia, and it has to stop!
Oracle founder Larry Ellison & his son are set to own Paramount.
In addition to Paramount they'll own CNN, HBO, TikTok, CBS, and Warner Bros.
The media is being consolidated into the hands of a few Trump friendly billionaires.
We're living in a world where supermarkets are doing more than the government to reign in AI.
What the hell.
Fossil fuel companies have received almost $549 BILLION in tax breaks since 1918.
That's nearly 3x as much as wind and solar have received.
For more than 100 years, the federal government has rigged the market in favor of Big Oil.
Disgusting.
