Senate GOP pushes back on Trump ballroom amid affordability worries LXXII Defeats LIV
The White House ballroom is officially being funded by private donations, not taxpayer funds, with 37 donors including major tech companies and corporate, according to Fortune. Irony? Hypocrisy? Both? Took our beloved Senate forever to discover ‘affordability’. Instead of cosplaying, man/woman up. Cutting off foreign and domestic aid for month funds all your Ice and Border Control needs. By the way, not passing the SAVE Act sends a powerful message to qualified voters. We’re not getting much return for your salaries, so why not make the lobbyists and sugar doners responsible for the Congressional payroll? ‘How’s that for ‘affordability’?
Legal experts warn Comey ‘86 47’ indictment faces First Amendment hurdles
Then jump them, DJT. They taught us lawfare. Why not bankrupt him? For those in Rio Linda, translation: Assassinate DJT, 47th President. ‘Military Code Theory. Some believe the term “86” comes from World War II military slang, where it was used to mean “eliminate” or “get rid of.”’
U.N. Gives Iran Seat on Nuclear Non-Proliferation Panel
Misleading headline. Should be UN gives America the middle finger.
A CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION, MASQUERADING AS A POLITICAL PARTY-Sean Davis: The foundation for the entire Democrat party is fraud. Illegal immigration, illegal congressional districts, illegal campaign contributions and money laundering, illegal lawfare, illegal federal funding, and illegal censorship.
LXXII Defeats LIV
DJT was not a fan of LIV Golf's format despite hosting a number of events on Trump properties for the Saudi-backed circuit. All of which lost money. More of a circus event than a golf tournament. LIV made a few golfers multi-multi-millionaires, but also caused the PGA to increase purses and create PGA TOUR Signature Events with limited fields and increased purses. LIV will not be missed.
Powell could remain at the Fed despite looming end of chair term
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell is set to deliver what is expected to be his final news conference as head of the Fed on Wednesday. The end of his chairmanship next month, however, will not mark his departure from the world’s most powerful central bank — and the circumstances are setting the scene for a standoff between Powell and DJT. If Powell steps aside, it would open a seat for another appointment. His term is not up till 2028. Would you keep working for a man who hates your guts, just because you can?
Cut IIhan some slack Her notes said World War II. Her constituents must be very proud. However, she was shocked to find her name now being pronounced as Elevenhan. One of the strongest reasons for a law allowing only natural born citizens to hold political office. Need another? NYC mayor says he’d ask King Charles to give back treasure Britain took centuries ago. NYC is dying. Only a matter of time before all the money changers leave.
Hey PM, hope things are going well in your current digs and service is up to or above par. Speaking of par, I think you have a slight problem with the Roman numerals in the LIV golf comments. What you posted as LXXIII should in fact be LXVII. (If you meant DJT, number 47) Although my 81.6 year old brain may be feeble, I still remember Mrs. Harlan's teaching of the Roman numerals about 70 years ago. Little did I know then that the only REAL reason to know about that 2500-year-old dead numbering system was to see which Super Bowl was next.
Then, the gift that keeps on giving gives us WW-Eleven. Of course, I knew immediately why ElevenHan was confused: She didn't know such a thing as Rome and their having a numbering system ever existed.
GREAT post! I am so happy when I see you posted even if sometimes I get to "look-forward" to it. I too hope that you are doing well, being in bed from an every 6 month maintenance surgery. As the Grandpa Keebler Elf once told me (he was the usher at my church) "Old age is not for sissies!" You make old age funnier and therefore happier.
