On Tuesday, Senate Republicans said that they are aiming to secure $1 billion in funding for the Secret Service for security-related aspects of the East Wing renovation, including the ballroom project, as part of a broader funding package for immigration enforcement.


Based on this ABC article Trump didn’t request funding for the ballroom. The GOP is trying to secure funding for hardening the east wing including the ball room.

quote:

That April 27 filing also said the upgrades would include "bomb shelters, a state of the art hospital and medical facilities, Top Secret military installations, structures, and equipment, protective partitioning, and other features."


Ever consider this isn’t a ballroom that includes some security upgrades but security upgrades that include a ballroom (100% paid for by donations BTW).

None of that changes my opinion on it being a need. But I do appreciate you sharing the information. Just go to Camp David if you think shite is hitting the fan. How often are modern presidents even in the white house? 20% of the time?

1 group isn't. This was always what this was going to look like. The goal was to take away Irans ability to make war, especially with nuclear weapons, that is done for the foreseeable future....

Regime collapse is a side item....

This is your X source for the Trump airport story?

If it's done why are the negotiations still revolving around what they will do with their uranium?

It’s it sourced so why should I believe an X post from Kamala’s media team?

Kamala’s media team?




Problem with modern media is they give us such poor choices


2004 Bush vs Kerry (both were Yale Skull & Bones)
2008 Biden vs Palin (Delaware corporate vs Big oil)
2012 Obama vs Romney (Berkshire Hathaway vs Amway)
2016 DJT vs Hillary (both cray cray)
2020 DJT vs Biden (2 too old guys)
2024 DJT vs Kamel woman (both cray cray)

Say what you will about the old choices ...

Bush Sr was CIA director
Nixon scared the crap out of Russia & China (tho paranoid)
Carter was the most true Christian POTUS we ever had
Kennedy gave us global glamor and a space race
IKE was a "get er done" Republican
Truman gave us the A bomb and no fear to use it
Roosevelt gave us the WPA

Yes I did too and Kamala’s media team is lying.

Trump is saying that if they sell anything with his name it has to be through an approved vendor. Which I fully understand given the hate and his brand. Would you allow just anyone to sell shite with your name. Plus, and this is not a source in favor of this, the author states:

quote:

Airport retailers that want to sell airport-named merchandise must buy from Trump-designated entities. Trump-linked entities cannot themselves profit from airport sales of Trump airport merchandise – but they can sell and profit from it off-airport.


So at least this one gotcha is a big nothingburger and attempted smear by Kamala’s zoomer media team.

You’re correct and the difference is the PTB figured out they could manipulate adoration or hate in the weak minded using coordinated propaganda and install anyone they wanted.

Think about it. The Dem party last year singlehanded kicked the incumbent President to the side, skipped the primary and chose their candidate….and the Dems went right along with it. She would’ve won too if she wasn’t so obviously weak and idiotic.

Say what you will about Trump but we know damn sure the voters picked him….not party leaders in a smoky room (Obama).

Apples to Apples

Obama did not mind the "citizenship" issue as it deflected his moms banker family in Kansas who was pals with Warren Buffet.

DJT had the Italian mob and Russian mob behind him, same way Joe Kennedy got his kid elected.

The actual rank and file Americans picked neither of them, just got to vote for them after somebody else picked them. We need a clean out of the whole thing and go back to the basics, maybe last seen in "The Greatest Generation" hitting middle age. Back then Democrats and Republicans wrassled with each other but they were the UNITED states of America when it came to folks from the outside stirring the pot.

My people in NYC knew his daddy.

You have no idea how the world really works.

The generation above me are all dead now, but DJT was on the "do not date" list back as a youth. Same Sicilians and Russians that became household names, and not in a good way. How you think his daddy built things without the "cement tax", "glass tax", "shipping tax", etc etc

Just like the bootlegger daddy (Joe Kennedy) got his son in the White House, so did it repeat with DJT. Do your homework, not that hard to put 2 and 2 together. Stick your head in the sand all you want, but start with this guy.




He first gained fame as a prosecutor of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg in their trials (1952–1953) and as Senator Joseph McCarthy's chief counsel during the Army–McCarthy hearings in 1954.

In the 1970s and during the 1980s, he became a prominent legal and political fixer in New York City. He represented and mentored Donald Trump during Trump's early business career.

Roy Cohn understood the political value of wrapping himself in the flag. He made good copy. He knew how to manipulate the press and dictate stories to the New York tabloids. He surrounded himself with gorgeous women. There was always something of a nefarious nature going on.

Cohn's legal representation of various mobsters including John Gotti, Tony Salerno, and Carmine Galante


TL : DR mash this link


Not like this is not out there, you just are too stubborn to read the truth. I grew up around this stuff when with my old man's family in NYC and Philly.

I would question that because in 2016 he was essentially a joke and nobody….especially HRC and the Bushes …thought he would win.

They may have gotten behind him in 2024 but he’d already done his thing. And I’m not a Trump fanboy as much as I was as he doesn’t have the discipline, focus or political acumen to get the things done that he promised.

DOGE was our last chance to try and turn it around. Just by bringing smart people in to ferret through spending using modern tech, they uncovered so much shite all of DC went into panic mode and they neutered the effort with haste.

This was the one time the Dem and Pub base shouldnt have rallied as that whole thing is an assault against all of us….but the sheep are too divided by their handlers.

None of that has anything to do with Trump becoming president. The first time or the second time.

I am aware of the environment in NYC in the 70's and 80's where the mob had control of the labor unions, and without payola, your project wasn't getting done. So I'm not denying that Trump or his father had to pay to play, like EVERYONE doing business in NYC at the time. That doesn't make Trump a "mob guy". Nor does it make his father one.

Giuliani took down the mob in NYC and Trump hired him as his personal atty and advisor.

That doesn't sound like something a mobster would do.

Your shite is all fricked up and your mind is poisoned by bullshite, and perhaps old age.
