The truth about Emil Bove's conduct at DOJ would not have been fully known, if it weren't for a whistleblower.

As this administration makes a habit of misleading the courts, and ignoring court orders, speaking up could mean exposing real lawlessness.

It should be illegal for any president to make structural changes to the White House complex without the approval of a non-partisan historic preservation oversight committee appointed by Congress.

Demolition of the White House's East Wing starts for Trump's ballroom project

President Donald Trump insisted in July that the $250 million project, which he said he and private donors would finance, “won’t interfere with the current building.”

Absolutely—It is absurd that no one protected the White House as s prescious landmardk bullding and historical treasure. And structural changes shoud dissallow reckless and vain acts for to support unconstiutional activities— international bribes—personal finance. Same w the Rose Garden.

Providing funds for protests is legal. It’s what we call freedom of speech. it’s in the Constitution — the document that Republicans apparently want to do away with.

Ernst: "I think it is extremely important that we look at who is funding these protests. We have to get to the bottom of this. It could be the usual suspect -- George Soros."

The New York Times should be writing paragraphs like this:
“Mr. Trump originally said back in July that the construction of his ballroom, at a cost of more than $200 million, ‘won’t interfere with the current building.’ But that was a lie, as was suspected at the time and was proven Monday.”

The New York Times’ cynicism is intolerable. After Trump began demolishing part of the East Wing for his ballroom project, NYT noted that Trump said in July it “won’t interfere with the current building.” Instead of casting that as a lie, NYT softens it by saying his promise “seemed unrealistic.”

Mr. Trump originally said back in July that the construction of his ballroom, at a cost of more than $200 million, “won’t interfere with the current building,” but that always seemed unrealistic given how big the plans were. On Monday, he said it would be able to hold “999” people.
