adding a colonnade to the West Wing to make it look less lopsided

the judge seems skeptical
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/whi...con-rcna255496Roth also cited the White House pool President Gerald Ford built in 1975 and the White House Tennis Complex as two structures on the White House grounds that didn’t get direct congressional authorization.
Leon appeared skeptical of that line of argument. “The ’70s Ford pool? You compare that to ripping down the East Wing?” Leon asked. “C’mon, be serious.”
amid diminishing power and declining popular approval, Trump demands a triumphal arch
on his mind today, the bribery ballroom
must be worried that Judge Leon will halt development
"art critic"?
Source of all the best public art and monuments.
Kennedy Center demolition announced
Kennedy Center demolition announced
what a huge asshole.
My guess as to next up on this agenda: "KENNEDY HAS TOO MANY LETTERS IN THE NAME SO AS MANY EXPERTS HAVE ADVISED, THE BEST THING TO DO WILL HAVE THE TOTALLY INDEPENDENT BOARD DISCUSS DROPPING HIS NAME. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!"
Totally jes joking.
DOJ asks Judge Leon to defer to the national security dimensions of East Wing demolition/ballroom construction and stay any TRO he might be contemplating

Trump graciously promise dto fund the Gateway Tunnel -- for which Congress has already appropriated funds -- from if Penn Station and Dulles Airport are named after him
Schumer declined
Each instance of executive impoundment is per se impeachable -- this is but one of myriad
https://www.cnn.com/2026/02/05/polit...funding-renamePresident Donald Trump told Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer last month that he was finally prepared to drop his freeze on billions of dollars in funding for a major New York infrastructure project.
But there was a condition: In exchange for the money, Schumer had to agree to rename New York’s Penn Station and Washington’s Dulles International Airport after Trump.
The startling offer, which was described by two people familiar with the conversation, was swiftly rejected by Schumer, who told the president he didn’t have the power to deliver on such an unorthodox request.
In the weeks since, Trump has continued to withhold the more than $16 billion earmarked for the long-planned Gateway project connecting New York and New Jersey through a new rail tunnel beneath the Hudson River.
tarnished Trump's escutcheon, then stricken from the public record
look at that horrible

In the ultimate culmination of Trump’s interests, the US Mint may soon produce a 24-karat gold commemorative coin bearing his image. It’s part of the celebration of America’s 250th anniversary—otherwise known as the semiquincentennial—and, if produced, would be in addition to a proposed one dollar coin with Trump’s image that was previously announced. Now The Handbasket is first to report that, per multiple members of a government coin committee, video of their recent meeting during which they voiced strong objections to the Trump coins’ production—because “no nation on Earth has issued coins with the image of a democratically-elected leader during the time of their service”—has disappeared from the US Mint’s Youtube page. While this particular instance of federal censorship is about coins, the larger message is loud and clear: Dissent will not be tolerated.
The Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee (CCAC), an impartial group that advises the Treasury Department on issues of design, held their most recent meeting on February 24th. Prior to that, the Mint added an agenda item to the official meeting noticereading: “review and discussion of a Semiquincentennial Gold Coin.” However, acting CCAC chair Donald Scarinci announced at the outset of the meeting that he was using his discretion to remove the agenda item, in addition to any talk of the one dollar coin, because “Only those nations ruled by kings or dictators display the image of their sitting ruler on the coins of the realm."
The following day, the New York Times published a story about the meeting. Three hours later, Scarinci told The Handbasket, the recording was gone.
what an asshole
