Seeing the White House being demolished is heart breaking. Seeing Obama on the trail is as uplifting as I could imagine. I hope he stays on the beat until the midterms are over. Thanks for good news again, Scott! 🙏🏻
Scott, thanks so much for today (and every day’s post) as I had no idea Haridopolos, my MAGA first-term Rep, was acting Speaker.Interesting as I saw nothing of this in local news.Also just did quick search and no mention. My call to him today will reference his behavior.Of course one of his BS emails said he was all about transparency when it came to Epstein files….
Tearing down the east wing of the White House without any of the required permissions is a visual symbol of exactly what Trump is doing to the whole of the American government, our institutions and the constitution. I am pleased. He is doing something so visual, so in the face of anything that America stands for so that even truly patriotic Republicans can’t help but privately be repulsed by this show of grandiosity and disregard for what the White House stands for. We the people are the owners of the White House and Trump is but a temporary tenant on the premises.
He's essentially treating the White House how he treats women and how he's treated all of us citizens: Like something to be used and abused without consent.
When Trump and his cronies have completed, tearing down the institutions of our government, will we attempt to rebuild what was or we build new improved versions so that we have a smooth operating government that can never be torn down by a wannabe dictator again?
After Trump is out of office or he is dead, he or his estate should be hauled into court for illegal desecration of the White House and be required to restore it back, using some of the ill gotten money he acquired in office.
Nothing less will be accepted so what’s left of the GQP will be forced to acknowledge what their own party did to our country. All of the GQP serving in any capacity in our government must’ve
I hope someone can figure out who has been hired to do the East Wing tear down so that we can all blast them.
Also do the workers know about their likely exposure to asbestos? From what I've seen (and I'll admit I haven't been looking that closely for the sake of my blood pressure) thay are ignoring the correct procedures!
Cheryl, you are so right! If any of us brought in a wrecking crew to dismantle part of our house, without a permit, the work would be stopped and we would be fined. And that is if we owned it. Imagine if we were just renters? DJT does not own the White House. We do!!!!
I heard somewhere that people had found out who was involved and were flooding Yelp or wherever with bad reviews. That won't change anything but still seems worthwhile.
Jess Craven has this action yesterday.Carrier is supplying the HVAC system.⬇️
Let’s contact CARRIER and tell them what we think of this partnership. I will also inform them that I will boycott all of their HVAC products until they rescind their offer to donate equipment to this horrific destruction of the White House.
Contact them here or at Carrier Corporate, 13995 Pasteur Blvd., Palm Beach Gardens, FL 33418
I read an article re: the backlash the construction company is getting online-someone found the name of the company in one of the pictures of the destruction of the East Wing!!
What he’s doing to the White House makes me sick… Feels almost like January 6th. Of course, it’s a felony to damage the White House, but the felon in charge doesn’t seem to care.
DESTROYING THE BEAUTIFUL WHITE HOUSE IS WAY WAY OUT OF LINE. IT IS THE PEOPLE'S HOUSE, NOT THE PRESIDENT'S HOUSE. ALSO, HE HAS TERRIBLE TASTE--WILL PROBABLY BE GARISH AND FULL OF GOLD. YUK
Judy, the drumpf is destroying the White House because he wants to show he can do anything he wants, that he is above the law. He will continue to break this country until the People with courageous leaders like Obama, Raskin, and Grijalva shut him down. He has the most repulsive mouth of anyone on the planet.
I’m happy to see President Obama back on the campaign trail. And I’m full of RAGE and TEARS at the demolition of OUR East Wing to stroke the insatiable ego of the ignorant toddler who currently occupies said structure.
The White House is the people's house and not a Trump right to modify it in any way. And Kudos to Mr Obama for championing Democrats in upcoming races. Mr Johnson needs to be sent back to Louisiana permanently. He's no speaker for anyone but the president. Republicans who value their presence in Congress should send him packing.
After seeing millions of Americans protesting him on Saturday, Trump first played like he was doing something he would really like to do with the video of him crapping on Americans, and then less than 48 hours later, really did something to get back at America, destroying the East Wing. Don't we have laws against destroying historical properties? And what could be more historical than our White House? Not HIS White House, OUR White House. It belongs to us, the American people. He's just doing anything and everything to destroy this country.
Tearing down the east wing of the White House sickens me. don-old is a liar and despicable man. We should find out who he contracted to demo and paste their names and blackball them. I hope Republicans will finally see him for what he is - a tornado sucking everything in its path. They need to seek shelter immediately or gone down with him.
There are so many things that he is doing that are evil! There is not enough time to list them all.
Stay strong and continue to do something. November 4th is a big day. If you know someone in the states having elections be sure to reach out and encourage them to vote!
There has to be some kind of legal precedent to compel the Speaker of the House to swear in and seat the new representative. It's appalling! As far as Comer goes, everybody knows he's a liar, except for the MAGAts. The truth will come out about TRump and his collusion with Epstein, and hopefully it's sooner than later.
Trump has no right to do ANYTHING to the White House building. He does not own it. He's living there temporarily. The White House belongs to the American people and the people have policies and procedures in place for taking care of the White House. I think the American people need to sue Trump for the destruction of the East Wing. How can we make that happen please?! There needs to be an injunction as well to stop the work now.
C.C. Yager, I so agree with your idea that the American people should file a LAWSUIT against the Dumpster for the demolition of the Historic WH! What Law firm would be willing to help support the people in this Country?
I don't know--a firm in D.C. probably but I am not familiar at all with any. I suppose we could contact our reps and let them know and see if they can help?
Sick to my stomach looking at the damage done. If anything looks like a "war zone" in this country it's the East Wing. . . Despicable GOP is destroying everything . History is going to remember this, and not kindly so. I hope every single one of the lying bstrds live to regret these days. . .
I miss President Obama and am always happy to see him out doing what he does on behalf of the nation, politically or just as a wise and kind man. He is a beautiful example of using his powerful position for good.

Yes...
But OBAMA wore a tan suit!
And DJ hasn't, so anything he does is okay with them.
So did Mitch McConnell, but radio silence on that one.
Heartbreaking to say the least!

He's essentially treating the White House how he treats women and how he's treated all of us citizens: Like something to be used and abused without consent.
And it’s no coincidence that he’s obliterating the Wing traditionally the bailiwick of the First Lady🤷♀️
VERY GOOD POINT!!!!
Rape, pillage, plunder.
"Gunpowder, treason, and plot." Since we're so close to the fifth of November...though these are being exercised by the administration.
When Trump and his cronies have completed, tearing down the institutions of our government, will we attempt to rebuild what was or we build new improved versions so that we have a smooth operating government that can never be torn down by a wannabe dictator again?

Someone posted the name of the contractor tearing down the east wing. I saw it in another thread. If I can find it again, I will post it here.
The Contrarian had the names of the companies in an article this morning.

WHY ISN'T ANYONE STOPPING HIM.
Yes, but how do we stop this idiot who loves only himself, wish there was a way to oust him now
I am hoping between Jamie R. & Adam S. we will witness the impeachment of the lunatic in chief.
Yesterday Adam Shiff posted a commentary on substack. It looked like he ( Adam) has a plan.
Sooner rather than later~

I’m just imagining they are tearing down mar-a-lago instead!

What trump is doing to the White House mirrors what he’s doing to the country.

Don't we have laws against destroying historical properties? And what could be more historical than our White House? Not HIS White House, OUR White House. It belongs to us, the American people. He's just doing anything and everything to destroy this country.
Of course we have laws and regs. Since when does he ever care about that?
He obviously doesn't care. He ignores laws and legal orders constantly.

Absolutely!

A lawsuit has been filed by Arizona, there are no shortage of lawyers looking at how to do this, so I am hopeful.
The iron is hot. Let’s do this.

Ben Meislas of Meidas Touch put out a whole video of who can sue and how to do it!!!
He practically begged for a lawsuit to be brought!!!!

We need to call it the Epstein Shutdown.
You are right!!! There is no House business going on because of DJT's need to not have the Epstein files made public!!!The Epstein Shutdown it is!!!!
