Stupid conspiracy theory: What if it's not a ballroom they're building?
I honestly don't think they are. Just some weird coding on the contract.

But in the Federal Procurement Data System, I found one order for "guided missile warheads" from DHS.

Award ID: 70CMSW25P00000078

Description of Requirement:

"This award provides multiple distraction devices to support law enforcement operations and ICE- Office of Firearms and Tactical Programs."
Ooo, I like that. I was thinking of having the people tear it down, brick by brick, but "venue for Nuremburg 2" is also acceptable.
May their neighbors have the decency to be ashamed of what they voted for.
It stings, but it's still way less expensive than a trip to the ER.
Yeah, that pissed me off to hear. At least it came out before he was elected.
So... I'm not happy that they're spending 10s of thousands of dollars on flashbangs, launchers, and God knows what else, but I'm not panicking, either.

Also found that Geissele Automatics has a whole line of pewpews called "Border Patrol", and the descriptions brag that they're the preferred weapons of DHS.

Not sure if that's another Hatch Act violation or just a company profiteering.

Got a source on this? It's so insane that it's probably true, but...
Well.. If you asked me whether it's worth people risking their lives to stop the demolition, I would say it's just a building.

But if you ask me whether destroying "just a building" is an unforgettable insult to the American people... 😡
If it was a cartoon, it would be hilarious. Unfortunately, we all live here...
No, he isn't planning on it, but I expect him to be carried out sooner than that.
Can we fast-forward to the "yeet the Emperor" scene?
Members of Congress who don't understand the effects of their actions are more than welcome to forgo their gold-plated Federal health plans and use the same marketplace as the rest of us. Maybe it'll make sense to them then.
Nice job avoiding the use of the word "dumbass".
Well... I bet Emiru didn't feel unsafe either. Until she did.
I was wondering if you'd weigh in on that. Between the lady who broke her back a couple years ago, the people who made it known they were staying home this year for safety reasons, and now this incident... This is a *pattern*.

Are y'all sure you want to go to TwitchCon next year?
Huh?

...Oh goddammit.

BRB, gotta delete a comment.
I hope you're right, but stepping down AFTER the war crimes have been committed doesn't look very heroic.
Eww, Washington Times. Still sounds plausible, though.
Heh, as long as it's not like Ogre Battle where the game punishes you for being over-levelled (ALI crash).
