JUST IN: Trump administration argues courts lack grounds to halt White House ballroom project even if it was clearly illegal. DOJ attorney also contends no lawsuit could stop Trump from tearing down Statue of Liberty if he wanted to. w/@kyledcheney https://t.co/boxAzjGAEI
This is so insanely corrupt, I can’t even believe it.
More than half the donors to Trump’s $400 million White House ballroom just won over $50 billion in new federal contracts in six months.
And here’s the part that should make your blood boil.
Sixteen of these 27 donors were facing federal enforcement actions, antitrust reviews, labor cases, securities charges. Many of those cases have been quietly dropped or scaled back since Trump took office. You write a check, your legal problems disappear. That’s not a coincidence.
The White House won’t even release the full donor list. They’re hiding it on purpose, because daylight is the one thing pay-to-play can’t survive. A federal judge already ruled ballroom construction has to stop until Congress authorizes it.
Government is supposed to serve the people, not auction itself off to the highest bidder. When access goes to whoever pays the most, working families always end up paying the price.
We either end the corruption, or the corruption will end us.

@catturd2@Kicking_chicken@johnrich Or, hear me out, he could end our involvement in foreign wars, lower gas prices, take meaningful steps to stop fraud, back the release Epstein files, learn to use paragraphs, etc., so average Americans can have a 250 celebration for the ages.
Breaking news: The Pentagon is moving to recruit hundreds of troops to appear as spectators at President Trump’s UFC cage-fighting event on the White House lawn, and requiring those who attend to pay their own way and meet height and weight requirements. https://t.co/zOSM2ac8Kk
@jchristenson_@jdowningsardine I don't give a shit if @jamestalarico eats weeds, fish, tofu or beef. It has zero bearing on my life. I am voting for the guy because he isn't a pedophile protecting lying adulterer like Ken Paxson. He wants to bring jobs to Texans, get us out of forever wars and fix healthcare.
