Hasty destruction, no signs of attempting to preserve or reclaim any materials. Trying to present a fait accompli before anyone speaks up.
Make it a Hall of Remembrance for all of the parts of history the GOP wants to erase.

NEW: After The Washington Post reported Monday on the demolition of the "East Wing facade," a new picture obtained by Law Dork that was taken on Tuesday shows that a substantial portion of the entirety of the East Wing has been demolished.
Don't ask me, I didn't draw up the ICE TOE. All I know is the teams exist and have since ICE was still US Customs Service.
ICE does have the HSI Special Response Teams. With the massive recruiting they're doing, I'm sure those teams are expanding

President Trump is demanding that the Justice Department pay him about $230 million in compensation for the federal investigations into him.

Whether he gets paid will ultimately be up to DOJ's second-in-command, who was recently his personal lawyer.

From the PSC Manual. Amazing that a single digit separates Smoke Grenades from Guided Missile Warheads. You really want competent people doing your procurement.
Isn't it great when sniper scopes is the optimistic option?
I've written to Brad "Trump's meat puppet" Finstad a few times now. His staffers sent a canned, generic response back the first time, but seems to have decided to double down on everything now.
Now we know what Musk's sales pitch was for Starlink.
Trump: "Buttigieg spent billions fixing the air traffic control. They used copper wire going into glass wire. Any union electrician here or any non-union electrician would say you can't hook copper into glass. It doesn't work. They spent billions, turned on the system & it was stone cold blank"
Most likely the result of mistyping 1240 (Optical Imaging) as 1420 (Guided Missile Components). ICE is not buying missile parts. They are buying sniper scopes.
This is most likely a clerical error. PSC 1420 (Guided Missile Components) was probably mistyped and should have been 1240 (Optical Sighting and Ranging). The supplier, Atlantic Diving Supply, does not seal in guided missiles (obviously) but does deal in scopes and imaging.
Yeah, generally 14%. Love them for that. It's more of an observation on what the normal margin must be for regular retail.
And those limits will be enforced by who? All three branches of government are currently tolerating anything he wants to do. He's literally demolishing part of the White House today.
I looked up the manufacturer website and Costco is selling for about $70,000 below MSRP. Crazy.

Heard about the Louvre jewel heist and my first thought was “finally, some good old fashioned normal crime”
Minnesota recently changed our flag, but that's OK. We still have Virginia's battle flag that we captured and still refuse to return.
About half the organizers and volunteers at the rally in rural Minnesota I went to were PTA moms and older church ladies. Armies wish they had that kind of support structure!

I took this video 45 minutes before the official start time of the downtown Minneapolis NO KINGS rally. Many thousands already here, thousands more streaming in constantly. It’s a beautiful day and people are excited, joyous, ready to be heard. Everyone’s done with this shit! #NoKings

10M adults on ACA plans are self-employed or small business owners and employees.

A restaurant owner in Virginia could see his monthly premium double, shooting up to $1400 a month.

Small businesses are the lifeblood of our communities – and Republicans are shafting them. Hello?

Take note of all these people turning out for protests in small towns in red states.

Remember them the next time you’re inclined to write an area off because “they voted for this.”
Yep. He insisted on going through every single case and commuted 265 sentences. He was warned he would lose votes in Minnesota for that and replied something like he couldn't afford to hang men for votes.
