Demolishing the White House while also trying to get &250 million from the DOJ.

Why should we bother paying taxes anymore if they’re just going to go to Trump?

There is powerful messaging and imagery and I don’t understand how there is no opposition. From Dems, sure, but media and businesses and

Trump’s move to “terminate” the Gateway Project is classic “mob boss” politics – using federal funds to punish his political enemies, and hurt you in the process.

Watch my full conversation with @kim.senate.gov and @katiephang.bsky.social about what this means for commuters, jobs, and safety.
My Conversation with Andy Kim and Katie Phang on the Gateway Project
Trump’s move to “terminate” this project shows what happens when a leader’s top priority is not safety or jobs - but political revenge.

NEW: Cardinal Blase Cupich, the Archbishop of Chicago, has issued a new statement declaring that Chicago "communities are shaken by immigration raids and detentions. These actions wound the soul of our city. Let me be clear. The Church stands with migrants."
Statement of Cardinal Blase J. Cupich, archbishop of Chicago, on Standing with Immigrants Oct. 21, 2025 My dear brothers and sisters, today I speak to you as your shepherd, but also as a fellow pilgrim who shares the pain of many of our immigrant communities. Families are being torn apart. Children are left in fear, and communities are shaken by immigration raids and detentions. These actions wound the soul of our city. Let me be clear. The Church stands with migrants. We stand with a mother who crosses borders to feed her children. We stand with the father who labors in silence to build a better future. We stand with the young person who dreams of safety and a better future. Our parishes and schools will not turn away those who seek comfort, and we will not be silent when dignity is denied in the enforcement of the law, it is essential that we respect the dignity of every human being. Now I want to say something directly to those immigrants without documents. Most of you have been here for years. You have worked hard. You have raised families. You have contributed to this nation. You have earned our respect. As the Archbishop of Chicago, I will insist that you be treated with dignity. Americans should not forget that we all come from immigrant families. You are our brothers and sisters. We stand with you. God bless you all.

The first time the Confederate flag ever paraded through the US Capitol was on January 6, 2021.

The first time the White House was damaged in over 200 years since the US rebuilt in the 1820s after the British burned it in the war of 1812 was mid October, 2025.

Trump hosted a dinner last week for donors helping fund his ballroom project.

Today, crews are starting construction and literally tearing down parts of the White House.

It's day 20 of the government shutdown and this is what he's prioritizing?
