That’s not how I expected the second half of this headline to go. β€œPart of White House Reduced to Rubble” should be followed by β€œWhat the Fuck.”

What to know about Trump’s plan to build $250m White House ballroom It's the first major structural change to the mansion since extensive renovations under President Truman in 1948.

"According to reporting by [the AP], the project went ahead despite not being formally approved by the National Capital Planning Commission, the federal agency that oversees such operations, which is currently closed due to a nationwide government shutdown." www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/10...

A budget is a moral document.

Trump and the Republicans are set to make ICE the highest funded federal as enforcement agency ever.

$12 BILLION to lock people up while his Core Civic buddies get rich.

Twisted.

So House Republicans are fighting about the Medicaid cuts in the tax bill for the rich - not because it kicks nearly 9 million people off Medicaid - but because it doesn't kick *enough* people off Medicaid. Vote accordingly.

In other words, in order to avoid angering Trump, Apple plans on lying to consumers. The company will raise prices due to tariffs but invent other reasons.

Accepting a private jumbo-jetΒ from a foreign nation is a clear violation of our Constitution, which plainly prohibits U.S. officials from accepting gifts from foreign governments.
