Back in 2010, Trump pitched the Obama admin about building a ballroom. The Obama admin never took him up on the offer and he never forgot. Here's the article. www.npr.org/2025/07/31/n...

Trump's dream of building a ballroom at the White House is becoming a reality

After at least 15 years of talking about it, President Trump is building a ballroom at the White House. Work will begin this September, with a price tag of $200 million, the White House says.

I think at this point folks are prob sick of seeing my talking head talk about this stuff, but I'm reposting because I'm such a Jamie Raskin fanboy.

“I know it must be uncomfortable for the Republicans to be the target of the largest peaceful protest in American history.”

@ezralevin.bsky.social joined Rep. @raskin.house.gov to discuss GOP conspiracy theories about No Kings Day and show their appreciation for everyone who took to the streets.

This is the same guy who is also arguing that furloughed feds aren't guaranteed back pay even after Congress passed the law in 2019 and it was signed by Trump.

Inventing Antifa

In 2005, the Uzbek government invented a group called “Akromiya” to justify massacring protesters. Now I worry the US government will do the same.

Harrisburg, PA — there are so many older women in banana suits at the Capitol holding antifa signs and none of that sentence would have made sense to me 10 years ago

Historian here No Kings is the most American thing you could say and the people opposing it simply don’t believe in our republic or constitutional democracy.

As Trump deploys a combination of ICE, National Guard troops and other paramilitary forces to multiple American cities, he is implementing a three-step plan.

Purge, Merge, and Surge

Trump is creating a omniforce of armed loyalists to establish his police state

The fact that top Republicans are already fearmongering about, lying about, the No Kings rallies this Saturday, across the US, tells you how worried they are about public pressure and protest against their reactionary, autocratic, anti-American agenda.

THIS.

It reeks of fear and desperation on their part.

When Republicans are pre-butting a pro-democracy rally like No Kings and making shit up left and right to scare people, you know they're losing and in panic mode.

Pedal to the floor.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

The malicious prosecution of Attorney General Tish James is baseless.

And the indictment is not worth the paper it is written on.
