Absolutely batshit insane that he did this, and that the Republican Party have done nothing to stop it.

What a disaster for America it was, electing him again. #maga #usa

There is no difference between Trump destroying the East Wing and using a wrecking ball on the Washington Monument or Smithsonian. Just because he (temporarily) lives there doesn't give him the right to demolish the White House without Congressional approval.

a live look at the demolition of the White House's East Wing for Trump's ballroom

The question needs to be "are you okay with the Department of Justice paying back people that they are investigating or have investigated? Because that is the president he would be setting here"

The underrated moment of George Springer's enormous home run in game 7 was the double arm dance move by Joey Loperfido. I need that in a GIF.

He could turn around and donate this to the Eric Trump foundation, where Eric Trump gets all the money, and Republicans and GOP voters wouldn't even care

They should do studies on him. Documentaries on these people. The ease in which they stand at a microphone or on TV and say this stuff is appalling and disturbing.

I am completely awestruck by the ease with which Mike Johnson lies on a daily basis. I'll never understand how such a transparently fraudulent "man of faith" can live with themselves. Life is too short to be that phony.

Donald Trump just started tearing apart the historic White house. No public feedback, no party votes, no nothing. He just decided to build a 250 million dollar ballroom, and nobody stopped him. He answers to the people, and the people do not benefit from this whatsoever.

Jacob M @jacobmc.bsky.social · 19h

Can Democrats not be doing this as well? It really feels like enough Republicans are going to get some changes through it will make a huge impact on elections. Democrats need a plan, not just a defense.

also - wouldn't this lead to everyone who was involved in a criminal case, getting money back?

This is all absurdly corrupt, and the GOP just stand by and smile.

I feel like having your livelihood dependent on the government deciding what and when to give you money isn't a ~great~ way to live?

something something freedom something something Capitalism

All you MAGA voters fucked up bad, and all you MAGA politicians are letting your Country die. #usa

Trump: "We'll probably make a distribution out of some of the tariff money over the next fairly short period of time to people."

The Blue Jays were not a good team last year.

They primarily added Santander as a big piece to help with power, who then essentially missed the whole season.

So the team just decided to play great, and make the World Series this year. Insane. #MLB #bluejays

Very unifying

I've watched that George Springer sprint around the bases too many times today.

I truly wasn't even imagining a homerun there. I was just thinking that we had two chances to get a base hit and possibly tie the game.

Not sure I've ever seen him at a game. Even Kawhi went to one.

Jacob M @jacobmc.bsky.social · 1d

SO MANY COMEBACKS.

And they held on to the division and made it to the World Series without Bo Bichette. I don't know how they did it. But they keep doing it.

I liked that Seattle team. Tough loss.

Dodgers may be unbeatable the way they are going, but at least they get to try. #bluejays #MLB

American historians must be shellshocked.

I knew Trump would be bad, but he's been even worse than I could have imagined.

Just this week he imaged himself as a King shitting on America, pardoned George Santos, and started tearing apart the White House.

Hoffman pitched 2 innings last night, and looked to be tiring. I will worry if he is brought in...

Jacob M @jacobmc.bsky.social · 1d

If Democrats can ever get back in charge, they can pretty much do everything they ever dreamed of and truly not give a fuck, based on the shit Trump is doing.

Jacob M @jacobmc.bsky.social · 1d

Pitching has held them close enough, but they have to find a way to get the bats going again.

Jacob M @jacobmc.bsky.social · 1d

It is safe to say that the Republican Party stands for nothing at all. What a travesty. All that history, so that Trump can have a bigger ballroom to negotiate bribes from.

America, what have you done?

The White House starts demolishing part of the East Wing to build Trump's ballroom

If the Jays don't end up winning this game, the biggest 2 blunders will likely be:

-Using Little in game 5, 8th inning
-Vladdy wearing a Leafs jersey to game 7

Happy they did. He was locked in with that fastball/slider. But Woo won't be a pushover either. #bluejays

Mike Wilner @wilnerness.bsky.social · 1d

There really didn't seem to be any reason to take George Kirby out of this game. #Bluejays

Jacob M @jacobmc.bsky.social · 1d

Bieber was lucky tonight. His command was all over. Seattle weren't swinging at the ones they should crush, and bailed him out on some bad pitches. On to the bullpen. #bluejays
