Thank God that Trump has not touched any part of the original White House. The wall that was knocked down was part of the East Wing, the addition built by Teddy Roosevelt around 1900. The East Wing houses the offices of the First Lady, just as the West Wing houses the offices of the President. I knew that there would be demolition involved when Trump announced that the First Lady's offices would be moved during the construction process.
Imagine when we blow it up! It will be a giant gold-colored glitter bomb. We need drones and satellites to catch all the action. (I'll add that to my short list of "reasons to live." So far, it's: Outlive him; and now the vision of a glitter bomb.)
No need for pyrotechnics. Though as a symbolic gesture, the next Dem administration should blow something of Dump's up. It will be a long campaign, but I am now very sure we will overcome Twumpy and the MAGAs. Even MAGA has shrunk down to the psychotic hard core extremists. And once we've replaced this shit government, and like Nixon, We Will Erase Him. Restore the Rose Garden, tear down his shitly ballroom, restore a democratic (small d) government. Will it take decades to restore all that he destroyed in just his first year. But we won't stop until it's all gone. And the first elected Repub who sighs about "the good MAGA days" will be unemployed so fast, his head will spin.
At the very, very least he'd be paying attention to the Constitution and how the "Republicans" let it be shredded. "Desperately clawing at the inside of his coffin" sounds about right.
There aren’t 7 republicans who care more about the country than they do about their own chances of keeping their Cush job with all the benefits that go with it. There isn’t a real patriot in the Republican Party.
It already has been. If he’s tarted up the Oval Office like he has with the whole world watching, imagine what he’s done behind closed doors. Case in point: the Lincoln Bedroom, which attack he bragged about a few days ago.
The transnational criminal syndicate has taken over America, our billionaire overlords own us! We’re denizens of a place where there are no laws, nor penalties for their crimes and corruption… colour me disgusted!
The private companies who donated $5 million each on average will own the Ballroom: "Google, R.J. Reynolds, Booz Allen Hamilton, Lockheed Martin, Palantir and NextEra Energy have donated, and so have firms in the tech, manufacturing, banking and health industries, sources told CBS News." This has nothing to do with improving federal property for the benefit of the public. It's a monument to a coup.
Sharon, you are exactly correct. “It’s a monument to a coup”. And the weasels have plans to move in permanently. DJT, his family and their felonious allies now own the United States of America. And the dumbass, racist MAGA christian nationalists presented it to him on a gold plated, tarnished platter.
I'm disgusted at their attempts to take over but I'm not about to let the bastards own me- WE THE PEOPLE should and can control this country as long as we're willing to fight forr
for it. We've been doing it intermittently since the Revolutionary War, have we become a nation of cowards now?
Hardly a nation of poltroons Diane, a nation of serfs…where the billionaire class is about to find out how much anger and disgust has been percolating since the treasonous Reagan was elected!
Obviously you never saw or parti ipated in a union strike. You just quit working, keep protesting alone or with others until either an agreement or compromise is reached.
Not cowards. Comfortable. Very comfortable in your situations and until folks get very uncomfortable, they'll kinda wait it out. The question is gonna be a matter of timing. Will they get very uncomfortable before it's too late?
In my state, private homeowners whose homes are designated as historical must follow strict guidelines if repairing or renovating. Privately owned. And this huge asshole does this to the White House? Fuck.
It’s ‘in your face’ all the time with this revenge machine. May he fall far and fast. Which I still pray will happen with such rapidity that it leaves both sides gasping
I was sickened by the destruction to the "peoples house". A wise man once said "everything Trump touches dies". Look on the bright side, he's destroyed the wing for the First Lady. Now she should be relegated to the Rose Garden Club, aka Parking Lot Club as an attendant. She can relive her former days doing "favors" for rich clients.
He needed to get approval from the National Parks Service and Congress to make these changes--he gave them the finger--'cause he knew no one could stop him!
“… as soon as #Trump fails, the Ballroom will have to be demolished and the #Whitehouse will have to be gutted because of all the foreign bugs, and other devices embedded in that fake gold.”
Don't put it past him He doesn't intend to leave except feet first, and then have Dooner takeover. Vance is a placeholder until he suspends the Cobstitution.
It is early days. Best not to even print things you don't want Donnie to do, because if he hears about it, he will go ahead and do it, if it suits his fancy.
Just like I bet the demolition crew was called to be there the day after the largest demonstration against him as his revenge for all of us hurting his feelings again. Everything with this sick man is transactional retribution.
The way he's been hitting on "very beautiful women" lately, openly and publicly, seems like he considers himself to be untethered to his third wife. Probably too old for him anyway.
Regardless of whatever the SCOTUS6 say, and if there’s any justice some of them need to go to jail, so they can whine from there, Trump will have to bear the cost to restore the WH and Rose Garden to what it was before he and what’s her name screwed it up.
except for the part where I was halfway to Washington before I realized that I'd left the garment bag with my nice suit and tie in it at home. fortunately, the clothes I was traveling in were acceptable, if a tad casual
I read a story from a guy who got to visit the White House and was given the privilege of staying overnight in the Lincoln Bedroom. He just could not bring himself to sleep in that bed, so he curled up on the couch. In the morning he asked if that furniture was really from Lincoln's day and was told, oh yes.
"So Lincoln himself slept in that bed?"
"He found it too short for him so he usually slept on the couch."
Like the time I had to travel for work and packed all my suit jackets but somehow left all the matching skirts at home. That was an interesting sartorial week. 😆
Oh man, that article you linked is beyond highly disturbing. WHO fights back against this, that’s what I want to know. I’m doing all I can but I can’t physically fight back. I’m soon 73 and a woman. Can you answer me who is going to fight back physically?
Maybe ICE needs those weapons for the coming military coup against the mad king? At this point that's the only thing that will likely stop him, so he needs his own army.
@Wendy the Druid… Not sure if you realize that your link takes reader out of the original source, and drives reader into a loop to your substack with no way out except backing waaay out to substack home page to reselect one’s original source.
The bile is coursing through every part of me after reading your post. Terrifying to think that this information is being hidden. It belongs above the fold and on every channel. Thank you for sharing. My anxiety and anger is overwhelming.
Was it a coincidence that Congress is MIA when the demolition began? I THINK NOT. Let's sue President Diarrhea into the next fucking century! I'm beyond rage at the moment, I can barely type. It's the People's House, not his. He's only renting it while he and "his family" are there. That's IT. We must vote in every local, state, and federal election to get these MF repugnicans out of power. My new health plan is to outlive these evil fucks.
You're right, Stranger, all this destruction is very deliberate, with 6 ways to compound damage with every step. I think there's something in the timing of all the AI video releases, some psychology where real things can be dismissed as easily as AI. And, out of date & out of context images being released..even with them being called out & debunked, it underscores the never-ending "fake news" claim, & tells people they can't believe their own eyes & judgment. It's warfare against the people of the U.S. on every level.
I was there many years ago on a special tour. Even got into the Oval Office. But I went to the National Geographic Building right afterwards and like it more. I wouldn't go anywhere near the White House today, because that motherfucker has ruined it.
the symbolism of “Trump destroying the White House for a overpriced luxury vanity project, during a government shut down, days after a historically-large mass demonstration against his regime called “No Kings”’ would be rightly viewed as laying it on a little thick if it was in a work of fiction
He is swinging his little mushroom peen around, trying to assert his authoritiii! But here's the thing: it's *intended* to make us sick and make us feel helpless. It's not working, though. He knows it. Congress knows it. His entire cabinet knows it. He engages in petty vandalism while his flying monkeys make the talk show circuit screeching about how we're all Antifa Terrorists Who Hate America. That's all they got. They're panicking. People do stupid things when they panic.
A peaceful mass demonstration shows two things: 1) the people are disciplined enough to avoid the violence 2) the massive scale of the people who are thoroughly disgusted and want to see the regime removed now. It's like a little old lady in a dark alley calmly opening up her trench coat to reveal a sawed-off shotgun. In their tiny reptilian minds, their threat assessment capability can put 1 and 2 together and extrapolate out what a bridge-too-far provocation could result in.
On Saturday, we achieved two-thirds of the magical "3.5%" needed to oust an authoritarian regime (I work with numbers, so I'm a little skeptical about how hard-and-fast this 'rule' is). The pain is ramping up, they are squealing like stuck pigs and thrashing around trying to generate more and more provocations and distractions to throw us off. Little noted fact: the regime is losing assistant chiefs of staff and other key flunkies at an acceleration rate. People who know stuff we don't.
I'm waiting for THE THING. That THING may never come, it usually doesn't since history tends to be banal at the time. It could be some third-rate 7th-grade dropout ordering the seizure of civilian weapons, or a panicked and untrained ICE goon opening fire at 20 rounds per second on a crowd of protesters. It is *very* hard to maintain discipline enough to push just far enough but not over a line, and impossible if your operatives understand neither restraint nor subtlety.
It's like bankruptcy, slowly... slowly..,. and then all at once. (Apologies to Hemingway).
I cannot describe the blazing fury I feel over the destruction of the White House. Of course, I hate Donnie Demento with every fiber of my being, but my fury is also directed at Holy Brother Mike Johnson, Whatever His Name Is Thune, every other Republican in Congress pulling down a paycheck for absolutely nothing, and every media outlet that is not covering this 24 hours a day.
I curse them all; I honestly hope to hear soon that all of them are suffering terribly from something--I don't care what, as long as it's extremely painful and terminal.
He could have been stopped by Congress if they were in session. But Mikey Johnson is never going to open congress for business. He knew by forcing a vote to remove Healthcare, the Democrats would not vote. Therefore Congress shutdown. That was the plan all along. Johnson will go down in history the weasle who helped destroy the US democracy. Congress will never open. Epstein files will never see the light of day. Trump will do wants and there is no Congress to stop him. Thanks Mikey. I hope you get the Trump promised you, but dont hold your breath.
I think you’re right. Project 2025 calls for the abolition of Congress. They’re not going to reopen the federal government. Who’s going to make them do so? The Epstein files will never be released because the global billionaire oligarchs are all involved in one way or another. There will be fraud and manipulation in any elections that may be allowed to take place. Like Mongo says in Blazing Saddles, we are only pawns in game of life.
France sending an ex president to prison is getting off light. They chopped off the head of a king. Btw, I think I read that they have a used guillotine in storage. Wonder if they’d like to sell it.
And Karma needs to send a hurricane straight thru Mar A Lago.
In December 1980, I performed in the East Room for the last party of the Carter Administration (long story.) I wish I could post the photo on Substack, but you'll have to take my word for it. The room was beautiful and a big enough ballroom for any functioning government. Now the room is history because little Donny took a backhoe to all of us. Anyone who believes anything that fucking felon says... The laws are irrelevant. Congress is irrelevant. SCOTUS is in the tank. Would someone please pass Donny another quarter pounder with extra cheese and a side of everything else? Cholesterol, you're our only hope.
He does it "because he can." Next: Ghislaine's pardon and the deep-sizing of the entire Epstein report (which has by now had so many redactions one could hold it up to watch a solar eclipse.) Until someone/something has the balls to say "Enough," "Basta," in my language, the bulldozers, real and figurative, will continue to roll over everything. And we will lose our essence.
The DC Metro police need to arrest the demolition crew. They committed a crime and Trump's say-so was not an excuse. We may not be able to arrest Trump at present but we should let all his accomplices know that they do not share his immunity.
Trump doesn't own the White House. We, the people, own the White House. He is merely a temporary resident. And how did that extra $50 million slip in? When he first started jabbering about a ballroom, he said the price was $200 million. Now it's $250 million. He should be impeached, convicted, and imprisoned for his many crimes against the American people, including this abominable desecration of a historic landmark.
Identify the contractors doing the illegal work and make this their last job. Stop the job and leave the gaping destruction as is for all time to remind us of the madness we’ve allowed to happen. The National Trumpocaust Museum of Shame
At least two have been identified on Threads: ACECO LLC & Clark Construction.
Isn’t this “destruction of federal property”? Can’t these companies be held liable at some point (assuming we get to the point where this could happen)?
On another substack, someone wrote that they believe this is the preparation for a Orange-Pedophilic-Sadist-Tower replacing The People's House. I was horrified. Then I realized it's a real, ghastly possibility. As MzNicky wrote, "who's going to stop him?"
This is what I've been wondering—how long before he brings in the demolition crews to take down the rest of the White House to replace it with one of his godawful towers.
His Big Ugly Beautification Plan includes demolishing the Social Security Building, which also contains historic murals, to make way for his Arc de Trump. What's missing? Oh yes, a Coliseum for his bread and circuses followers.
Well up until now, the wrecking ball Trump was using on our country was metaphorical (which certainly was horrific). But now it’s quite literal. How in the fuck can this asshole make the unilateral decision to destroy America’s house? Our HOA board has more rules than Congress and SCITUS put together.
Will people please take a hard look at the demolished East Wing and finally get it through your heads that this is NOT TEMPORARY. Everyone living in La-La land who believes the next vote will make anything go back the way it was, do you get the picture now? The Trump damage is permanent.
The Project 2025 plutocrats from the perversely-named Heritage Foundation also want to monumentalize their obscene wealth and power. This is their legacy.
I don’t know but I suspect it will make January 6 look tame. He has his own armed militia now and most of the sane people who were in charge of voting have been fired or left in fury and disgust.
When the regime is dead, the next POTUS must fix the Oval Office, demolish the vanity ballroom and rebuild the proper East Wing and demolish the proposed "Arc de Trump" whenever it is inevitably built.
three years ago today, I was in the White House. glad I got to see it before Donny fucked it all to shit
http://smirkingchimp.com/images/wh-me.jpg
Thank God that Trump has not touched any part of the original White House. The wall that was knocked down was part of the East Wing, the addition built by Teddy Roosevelt around 1900. The East Wing houses the offices of the First Lady, just as the West Wing houses the offices of the President. I knew that there would be demolition involved when Trump announced that the First Lady's offices would be moved during the construction process.
BTW, we're gonna blow up the damn ballroom
Imagine when we blow it up! It will be a giant gold-colored glitter bomb. We need drones and satellites to catch all the action. (I'll add that to my short list of "reasons to live." So far, it's: Outlive him; and now the vision of a glitter bomb.)
No need for pyrotechnics. Though as a symbolic gesture, the next Dem administration should blow something of Dump's up. It will be a long campaign, but I am now very sure we will overcome Twumpy and the MAGAs. Even MAGA has shrunk down to the psychotic hard core extremists.

Will it take decades to restore all that he destroyed in just his first year. But we won't stop until it's all gone. And the first elected Repub who sighs about "the good MAGA days" will be unemployed so fast, his head will spin.
Maybe it's time for the Republican Party to go the way of the Whigs. I have this hunch that even Abe Lincoln would approve.
Conan O'Brian joke: if Abraham Lincoln were alive today he would be:
a) appalled at the current direction of the Republican party,
b) a tireless campaigner for human rights, or
c) desperately clawing at the inside of his coffin
At the very, very least he'd be paying attention to the Constitution and how the "Republicans" let it be shredded. "Desperately clawing at the inside of his coffin" sounds about right.
I doubt dems will have the stamina to blow it up but we will see
But we know the best people. Some of them know how to blow up shit!
Right. All we have to do is find someone missing a few fingers.
It will be like when the judges hit that golden buzzer for a singer they like and gold glitter rains down. 😆
I fear that the original building will also be attacked Who will stop him?
Not a soul can, nor will make any attempt to stop his insanity Arne!
All it would take would be 4 RepubliCON Senators and 3 Congress critters to defect and put some brake action on all this BullShit.
7 people could turn this whole shit show around.
So frustrating.
There aren’t 7 republicans who care more about the country than they do about their own chances of keeping their Cush job with all the benefits that go with it. There isn’t a real patriot in the Republican Party.
It's likely the Epstein files are being held by Chunky Cheeto to blackmail more than 7 Republicans into not stopping him.
I've got a feeling there's even a couple of SC Justices in those files.
They're terrified of being "retributioned"
You’re right of course Ole, but that quiver, searching for a spine to crawl up in this GOP won’t be finding one soon!!
It already has been. If he’s tarted up the Oval Office like he has with the whole world watching, imagine what he’s done behind closed doors. Case in point: the Lincoln Bedroom, which attack he bragged about a few days ago.
I agree--wait for it!
The transnational criminal syndicate has taken over America, our billionaire overlords own us! We’re denizens of a place where there are no laws, nor penalties for their crimes and corruption… colour me disgusted!
The private companies who donated $5 million each on average will own the Ballroom: "Google, R.J. Reynolds, Booz Allen Hamilton, Lockheed Martin, Palantir and NextEra Energy have donated, and so have firms in the tech, manufacturing, banking and health industries, sources told CBS News." This has nothing to do with improving federal property for the benefit of the public. It's a monument to a coup.
Sharon, you are exactly correct. “It’s a monument to a coup”. And the weasels have plans to move in permanently. DJT, his family and their felonious allies now own the United States of America. And the dumbass, racist MAGA christian nationalists presented it to him on a gold plated, tarnished platter.
They don't own it yet. I'm not willing to concede to that.
Nor am I!😡😡
Great way to put it.
I look forward to its demolition once sanity returns.
Which one will get naming rights? 🤔
Dad.
This is a good list of corporations to begin our economic shutdown. Apple and Amazon are likely add ons.
I'm disgusted at their attempts to take over but I'm not about to let the bastards own me- WE THE PEOPLE should and can control this country as long as we're willing to fight forr
for it. We've been doing it intermittently since the Revolutionary War, have we become a nation of cowards now?
Hardly a nation of poltroons Diane, a nation of serfs…where the billionaire class is about to find out how much anger and disgust has been percolating since the treasonous Reagan was elected!
When do we strike and for how long? Start with one day and then add a few more, or start with a week?
Obviously you never saw or parti ipated in a union strike. You just quit working, keep protesting alone or with others until either an agreement or compromise is reached.
It lasts as long as newded.
No time like the present Zika…
A personal ban on products of the corporations that Trump grifted, is a statement!
Not cowards. Comfortable. Very comfortable in your situations and until folks get very uncomfortable, they'll kinda wait it out. The question is gonna be a matter of timing. Will they get very uncomfortable before it's too late?
Davos Man is destroying the earth.
In my state, private homeowners whose homes are designated as historical must follow strict guidelines if repairing or renovating. Privately owned. And this huge asshole does this to the White House? Fuck.
It’s ‘in your face’ all the time with this revenge machine. May he fall far and fast. Which I still pray will happen with such rapidity that it leaves both sides gasping
Right there with you, pal
I was sickened by the destruction to the "peoples house". A wise man once said "everything Trump touches dies". Look on the bright side, he's destroyed the wing for the First Lady. Now she should be relegated to the Rose Garden Club, aka Parking Lot Club as an attendant. She can relive her former days doing "favors" for rich clients.
She hasn't been living there this go-around anyway. She'll just have to share Kegbreath's make-up room when she's required to show up for a party.
No Trump didn't consult the board that was supposed to approve these things.
Dicktators never have to get permission. They just do whatever the f**k they want.
The Metro police should arrest the workers. They should know better than to commit crimes at Trump's request.
He needed to get approval from the National Parks Service and Congress to make these changes--he gave them the finger--'cause he knew no one could stop him!
I guess the rubberstamp R Senators & Reps are making it all possible :/
“… as soon as #Trump fails, the Ballroom will have to be demolished and the #Whitehouse will have to be gutted because of all the foreign bugs, and other devices embedded in that fake gold.”
- @garycur.bsky.social
Just like the US Embassy was in Moscow decades ago . More hidden spy devices than you could count .
I will add the “gifted” Jet from Qatar is probably riddled with spyware as well!
Don't put it past him He doesn't intend to leave except feet first, and then have Dooner takeover. Vance is a placeholder until he suspends the Cobstitution.
It is early days. Best not to even print things you don't want Donnie to do, because if he hears about it, he will go ahead and do it, if it suits his fancy.
Just like I bet the demolition crew was called to be there the day after the largest demonstration against him as his revenge for all of us hurting his feelings again. Everything with this sick man is transactional retribution.
Well it's not like that was being used it's wife is never there, except for events...
I don’t think LDFF knows where the Slovenian “wife” is half the time.
The way he's been hitting on "very beautiful women" lately, openly and publicly, seems like he considers himself to be untethered to his third wife. Probably too old for him anyway.
Regardless of whatever the SCOTUS6 say, and if there’s any justice some of them need to go to jail, so they can whine from there, Trump will have to bear the cost to restore the WH and Rose Garden to what it was before he and what’s her name screwed it up.
He’s Never paid for ANYTHING in his life-maybe the3rd wife.🤢
I hope so.
Hope so🤞🤞🤞
Wha fucking First Lady lol. She’s mia
Maybe use it for swearing in immigrants and parties for regular folk.
Yes! Let's do the Hockey-Pockey and turn it around!
oh he has more than 3 years to get to it
PASS THE SEMTEX
But it's going to be a wonderful day when We the People blow the ballroom up!
I'd buy a brick to chuck at that
I prefer a Lewes bomb.😂😂
Just before blowing the ballroom up, We The People will rename it the Donald Trump Narcoleptic Fart Concentration Center and Monument to Stupidity
Jeff , you scrub up nicely !
except for the part where I was halfway to Washington before I realized that I'd left the garment bag with my nice suit and tie in it at home. fortunately, the clothes I was traveling in were acceptable, if a tad casual
*part of yr charm*
Looking fine!
I read a story from a guy who got to visit the White House and was given the privilege of staying overnight in the Lincoln Bedroom.

Well Jeff, Since, the Dog Killer has gone and purchased Ethnic Cleansing gear for DHS, I think we should all be worried.
https://thistleandmoss.com/p/ice-didn-t-buy-crowd-control-they-bought-gear-for-ethnic-cleansing
I read that she's also buying herself two brand-new Gulfstream private jets. How nice for her.
Not just any Gulfstream, but the flagship G700
Well, they’re not “brand-new,” but used instead. I’m surprised she agreed to someone else’s leftovers.
Both jets bought for $172 million dollars— a lot of cash for used aircraft.
My kingdom(🤣🤣)for a couple of Stingers.😂😂
My kingdom for House/Senate minority leaders with balls bigger than Tic Tacs 🔍👀
Oh man, that article you linked is beyond highly disturbing. WHO fights back against this, that’s what I want to know. I’m doing all I can but I can’t physically fight back. I’m soon 73 and a woman. Can you answer me who is going to fight back physically?
I will at 53 if I can
Maybe ICE needs those weapons for the coming military coup against the mad king? At this point that's the only thing that will likely stop him, so he needs his own army.
Dubious Wendymae, considering everything we know of P2025!
That's what ICE is.
@Wendy the Druid… Not sure if you realize that your link takes reader out of the original source, and drives reader into a loop to your substack with no way out except backing waaay out to substack home page to reselect one’s original source.
Because the source isn’t Substack. The source is hosted on enterprise licensed Beehiiv.
I won’t host content on Substack anymore because as a trans woman , the nazis , magas , and far rights on Substack flood my DMs, comments, etc.
my long form on Substack meant I spent more time banning and removing shit comments than I did actually writing.
Substack is def a love/hate relationship
The bile is coursing through every part of me after reading your post. Terrifying to think that this information is being hidden. It belongs above the fold and on every channel. Thank you for sharing. My anxiety and anger is overwhelming.
Holy Shit Wendy. *700%*!
Was it a coincidence that Congress is MIA when the demolition began? I THINK NOT. Let's sue President Diarrhea into the next fucking century! I'm beyond rage at the moment, I can barely type. It's the People's House, not his. He's only renting it while he and "his family" are there. That's IT. We must vote in every local, state, and federal election to get these MF repugnicans out of power. My new health plan is to outlive these evil fucks.
Nor was it a coincidence that the demolition began on the Monday after the No Kings weekend. Yet another middle finger to America
There are no coincidences Stranger, you’re correct!
Coincidences take careful planning.
You’re so on your game Kristy!
You're right, Stranger, all this destruction is very deliberate, with 6 ways to compound damage with every step. I think there's something in the timing of all the AI video releases, some psychology where real things can be dismissed as easily as AI. And, out of date & out of context images being released..even with them being called out & debunked, it underscores the never-ending "fake news" claim, & tells people they can't believe their own eyes & judgment. It's warfare against the people of the U.S. on every level.
That was depressing as hell. If it’s any consolation, I believe the demo company who took down Bonwit Teller is still waiting to be paid
Well That’s a Surprise…
Here’s the perfect name for that disgusting eyesore: The Jeffrey Edward Epstein Memorial Ballroom. Let’s spread it around.
I was there many years ago on a special tour. Even got into the Oval Office. But I went to the National Geographic Building right afterwards and like it more. I wouldn't go anywhere near the White House today, because that motherfucker has ruined it.
The stench alone...
Disgusting. That's our house! Or it used to be.
It STILL is!
The New Versailles is ready for a revolution under "Donnie the XVI".
The next president won’t need to get a brick for me, I’ll gladly bring an entire pallet!
I’ve never been and have always wanted to go. Too late now. 😭
Nice photo. Thanks and love.
Luck out.
Great photo Jeff!
Lovely photo Jeff. Can’t Believe donny Convict Pedo,has done that to The White House. What an uncouth asshole!
the symbolism of “Trump destroying the White House for a overpriced luxury vanity project, during a government shut down, days after a historically-large mass demonstration against his regime called “No Kings”’ would be rightly viewed as laying it on a little thick if it was in a work of fiction
- @faineg.bsky.social
A reporter on MSNBC said that the timing isn't coincidental.
This much is clear.
He is swinging his little mushroom peen around, trying to assert his authoritiii! But here's the thing: it's *intended* to make us sick and make us feel helpless. It's not working, though.

A peaceful mass demonstration shows two things: 1) the people are disciplined enough to avoid the violence 2) the massive scale of the people who are thoroughly disgusted and want to see the regime removed now. It's like a little old lady in a dark alley calmly opening up her trench coat to reveal a sawed-off shotgun.

It's like bankruptcy, slowly... slowly..,. and then all at once. (Apologies to Hemingway).
This was my exact prediction in an earlier post- No telling what incident will kick off the events leading to trumps downfall ( Epstein Files ? )
But it will happen at such rapidity that it will leave both sides gasping.
Sooner the Better.
George, I think that was Fitzgerald. But, yeah - they have to make a huge mess before the 26 election. If there is one.
There will be one or FAFO.
🎯🎯🎯
Hemingway, in A Farewell to Arms IIRC
Oh, you’re right! It was Hemingway, but in The Sun Also Rises. Time to reread things from that era - they are too eerily prescient.
His handlers failed to screen his TV shows and he's having a Big Baby meltdown, apparently.
Trump tells people to look over there 👉
Interesting if something THIS catastrophic is a mere distraction. No, make that "horrifying".
It’s the ‘legal minds’ behind the scenes looking for loopholes that I worry about
Coincidences take careful planning.
huh
Indeed.
REVENGE-DRIVEN RAGE-BABY has to RAGE, after all.
So true.
Exactly, file this under "you can't make this shit up"
It's a kick in the gut. I have no words...for a change.
I hate it here.
It brought me to tears when I saw the demolition….there is nothing sacred left in this country when that POS gets ahold of it. 😢
Tbh the Rose Garden was worse for me… just ‘numb’ now, I guess :/
Yeah that was an abomination! That tramp getting it dug up-Awful
Our club membership is growing Susan!
How big is your Susan?
I'm sad and furious all at once. 😢😡😡
I cannot describe the blazing fury I feel over the destruction of the White House. Of course, I hate Donnie Demento with every fiber of my being, but my fury is also directed at Holy Brother Mike Johnson, Whatever His Name Is Thune, every other Republican in Congress pulling down a paycheck for absolutely nothing, and every media outlet that is not covering this 24 hours a day.
I curse them all; I honestly hope to hear soon that all of them are suffering terribly from something--I don't care what, as long as it's extremely painful and terminal.
Ditto
Full-body cases of Shingles...every fucking one of them!! And I'm the Pharmacy Nazi shouting "No meds for you!!!"
😂😂😂
Please add Sen. John Cornyn to your curses. His ads bragging about his 90 percent pro-Trump voting record are driving me nuts!
Being impaled on a pike works for me.
On construction debris.
Mike Johnson should be tarred and feathered
Grindr mike johnson
There’s probably asbestos somewhere in the rubble. Breathe deeply, Donny.
He could have been stopped by Congress if they were in session. But Mikey Johnson is never going to open congress for business. He knew by forcing a vote to remove Healthcare, the Democrats would not vote. Therefore Congress shutdown. That was the plan all along. Johnson will go down in history the weasle who helped destroy the US democracy. Congress will never open. Epstein files will never see the light of day. Trump will do wants and there is no Congress to stop him. Thanks Mikey. I hope you get the Trump promised you, but dont hold your breath.
I hate him with heat of a 1,000 fiery suns!
I think you’re right. Project 2025 calls for the abolition of Congress. They’re not going to reopen the federal government. Who’s going to make them do so? The Epstein files will never be released because the global billionaire oligarchs are all involved in one way or another. There will be fraud and manipulation in any elections that may be allowed to take place. Like Mongo says in Blazing Saddles, we are only pawns in game of life.
Somebody is going to grow a conscience and leak the damn files and then, buddy, look out. 👀
The Epstein victims are supposedly compiling their own list of perpetrators.
🙏 please please please!
And may the fleas of a thousand camels nest in his lying, smirking mouth.
I was thinking groin, but I’ll take mouth.
I think you may be giving Unholy Mike credit for more brains than he deserves.
Even a stopped clock is right twice a day, right?
I agree. He didnt come up with this idea himself. He is just following orders.
France sending an ex president to prison is getting off light. They chopped off the head of a king. Btw, I think I read that they have a used guillotine in storage. Wonder if they’d like to sell it.
And Karma needs to send a hurricane straight thru Mar A Lago.
Hell, I bet they'd give it to us if they knew what we were going to use it for.
😂😂😂
I live two miles away from Mar a Lardo.
Don’t be wishing any Hurricanes our way!
A fall down the steps of AF One works just as well and I won’t be collateral damage.
Have you been streaming my No. 1 favorite dream? Fat butt over blonde ratsnest, over and over and over. What a perfect end!
I prefer giant sinkhole underneath it. My apologies to the memory of Marjorie Merriwether Post
My #NoKings sign says MAKE GUILLOTINES GREAT AGAIN.
🤣🤣😂😂
In December 1980, I performed in the East Room for the last party of the Carter Administration (long story.) I wish I could post the photo on Substack, but you'll have to take my word for it. The room was beautiful and a big enough ballroom for any functioning government. Now the room is history because little Donny took a backhoe to all of us. Anyone who believes anything that fucking felon says... The laws are irrelevant. Congress is irrelevant. SCOTUS is in the tank. Would someone please pass Donny another quarter pounder with extra cheese and a side of everything else? Cholesterol, you're our only hope.
You can post a photo. Restack your own post with a note, add a photo, and there you are.
Thanks!
He makes me sick
I HATE HIM.
https://bsky.app/profile/taradublinrocks.bsky.social/post/3m3pjttio5c23
agree!
He does it "because he can." Next: Ghislaine's pardon and the deep-sizing of the entire Epstein report (which has by now had so many redactions one could hold it up to watch a solar eclipse.) Until someone/something has the balls to say "Enough," "Basta," in my language, the bulldozers, real and figurative, will continue to roll over everything. And we will lose our essence.
besides, who’s going to stop him?
No one, that’s who. No one is going to stop him from anything. Seems pretty obvious by now.
Nothing is sacred. The entire Republican party is solidly behind him. It makes me sick.
How abt the msm stick a microphone in every one of their faces and get a statement ON THE RECORD…?😡
According to Eric Swalwell,(D) there are 100 Repubs ready to defect from Trump when the Epstein files are released. Jaime Raskin concurred. https://m.economictimes.com/news/international/us/epstein-bomb-about-to-explode-100-republicans-ready-to-flee-trump-swalwell-claims/amp_articleshow/124423304.cms
But do they have the balls to do it publicly?
Well I think if they want to save any dignity for themselves, yes. I mean they not have even that left in their repertoire…
I call BullShit
We need to turn up the heat.
The first casualty was the Rose Garden - and he got re elected, so there’s that… 😓
I wish I could remember who described the former Rose Garden as now looking like the outdoor food court at Chipolte.
😂😂 Well, thats accurate!!
🤣🤣😂😂
But catered by McDonald’s.
Where have all the flowers gone - long time passing. PP+M.
The DC Metro police need to arrest the demolition crew. They committed a crime and Trump's say-so was not an excuse. We may not be able to arrest Trump at present but we should let all his accomplices know that they do not share his immunity.
It’s like he sent the backhoes to the White House as a way to tell the whole country: “Do you get it now?”
he's so ghastly in every respect - how he's worshipped and feared and supported is something I just CANNOT understand
You've captured it. My heart is cracked.
Trump doesn't own the White House. We, the people, own the White House. He is merely a temporary resident. And how did that extra $50 million slip in? When he first started jabbering about a ballroom, he said the price was $200 million. Now it's $250 million. He should be impeached, convicted, and imprisoned for his many crimes against the American people, including this abominable desecration of a historic landmark.
It'll go up to a billion, without a doubt.
Of which he'll pocket $750M
Roberto, let’s see the price quotes (should be 3) itemized. One million dollars is still a lot of money and start the cuts now.
Identify the contractors doing the illegal work and make this their last job. Stop the job and leave the gaping destruction as is for all time to remind us of the madness we’ve allowed to happen. The National Trumpocaust Museum of Shame
At least two have been identified on Threads: ACECO LLC & Clark Construction.
Isn’t this “destruction of federal property”? Can’t these companies be held liable at some point (assuming we get to the point where this could happen)?
They need to be arrested, not at some point, NOW.
they'll get stiffed - who would work for trump?
They won’t get stiffed. He’s paying them with OUR money.
Gina, there will be no stiffing and which mafioso is ‘doing the job?’ .
No trace of this rutting pig can remain.
On another substack, someone wrote that they believe this is the preparation for a Orange-Pedophilic-Sadist-Tower replacing The People's House. I was horrified. Then I realized it's a real, ghastly possibility. As MzNicky wrote, "who's going to stop him?"
This is what I've been wondering—how long before he brings in the demolition crews to take down the rest of the White House to replace it with one of his godawful towers.
At this point, only death.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
His Big Ugly Beautification Plan includes demolishing the Social Security Building, which also contains historic murals, to make way for his Arc de Trump. What's missing? Oh yes, a Coliseum for his bread and circuses followers.
There might be an accidental mishap with the bulldozers. It would not surprise me at all.
Eh, if anyone gets hurt they're just bury THEM under the ballroom, too.
Ya think?
🤬🤬🤬
I think he wants one on the land Florida wants to donate for his "presidential library".
Excuse me while I puke.
Well up until now, the wrecking ball Trump was using on our country was metaphorical (which certainly was horrific). But now it’s quite literal. How in the fuck can this asshole make the unilateral decision to destroy America’s house? Our HOA board has more rules than Congress and SCITUS put together.
Right?!?!?
No doubt! I need permission to install a fence!
We need permission to change our screen door.
Will people please take a hard look at the demolished East Wing and finally get it through your heads that this is NOT TEMPORARY. Everyone living in La-La land who believes the next vote will make anything go back the way it was, do you get the picture now? The Trump damage is permanent.
Yep. He’s never leaving. He’s trying to recreate DC in his own image.
Everything of value hollowed out to make room for tacky ego stuffing.
The Project 2025 plutocrats from the perversely-named Heritage Foundation also want to monumentalize their obscene wealth and power. This is their legacy.
He's leaving, one way or the other.😡😡
I completely concur with your assessment. I hope that I am wrong, but do think the next vote will not happen or the outcome will not be honoured.
I don’t know but I suspect it will make January 6 look tame. He has his own armed militia now and most of the sane people who were in charge of voting have been fired or left in fury and disgust.
Also Dominion voting machines have been sold to a Republican. So trust level of the machines now?
Vote on a hand marked paper ballot. I request one every time I vote. Never vote on a machine.
If the Supreme Court allows him to send troops to American cities, we can kiss the midterms goodbye.
It looks like it's been bombed, which was probably King Shitheads original plan.
When the regime is dead, the next POTUS must fix the Oval Office, demolish the vanity ballroom and rebuild the proper East Wing and demolish the proposed "Arc de Trump" whenever it is inevitably built.
