What never happened before Trump:

-Every president who lost has conceded except Snowflake Donald.

-No President has ever sold watches, fragrance, phones, and crypto WHILE president.

-No US President has ever made $1.3 billion a year AS president.

-No President has EVER been so unhinged as to add his name to a memorial of another president.

-No President has ever destoryed a third of the white house to build a gold dance hall.

-No President has ever forced taxpayers to pay for his war on algae, then lose the war.

-No President has ever been broken by late night comedians and pop stars.

-No President has ever forced the IRS to give him an official right to never pay taxes.

-No President has ever started a war just to hide his connections with a pedophile.

-No President has ever lost a war that he started just to hide his connections with a pedophile.

Is anyone else crying at the beauty, diversity, and unity of the Grand Opening of the Obama Presidential Center? Jennifer Hudson moved me & filled my head w/ the prayer that we can take back our country & live amicably, prospering together. #JenniferHudson #ObamaCenter #HopeAgain

Dear Joe,
I wish I could sit down with you face to face and explain why so many of us were offended by the UFC fight on the South Lawn of the White House.
For me, it had nothing to do with the UFC or who showed up for the fights. The brand you and Dana have built is a bona fide American success story. More power to you. As for the fighters, in my book, anyone brave enough to put it all on the line in the arena is remarkable to witness. Their dedication and discipline inspire me. I don’t understand anyone who can’t admire that.
And as for the people who attended, I, for one, love Shane Gillis. I think he’s hilarious and brilliant. It was a show. A once-in-a-lifetime spectacle. I can’t blame anyone for wanting to witness it firsthand.
My problem is that I believe some of our public spaces are sacred. And unlike many of the great powers that came before us, these American monuments belong to all of us. Not to whoever happens to hold power at the moment.
The White House does not belong to Donald Trump. It does not belong to any President. It belongs to the people. To treat it as Caesar treated the Colosseum is antithetical to everything our founding fathers fought for.
This is not Rome. Presidents are not emperors doling out bread and circuses for the peasants. The White House is the People’s House. This “celebration” could have happened in any stadium within a stone’s throw of the South Lawn. No one would have had an issue with it.
But that was obviously Donald Trump’s whole point. By holding the event on the South Lawn, what he was saying to the rest of us is:
“This is my house. I own it. I will do with it what I please. I’ll build a colosseum and have the gladiators fight under my gaze. I’ll tear down the East Wing. I’ll pave over the Rose Garden. I’ll cover everything in gold and marble. I’ll erase the names of all the men who came before me.”
The fights were an exhibition of imperial domination, not a celebration of our 250th anniversary as a democracy.
The White House is not Buckingham Palace. It is not the Palace of Versailles. It is not the Forbidden City of Beijing. It does not belong to an emperor, or a king, or a commissar.
The White House belongs to us. All of us. The person who sits behind the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office is nothing more than an honored guest. A temporary caretaker.
The President is our servant. Not our Caesar.
Respectfully, Hunter

P.S. Cage match between me and Don Jr.? Your call on the venue. Anywhere but the South Lawn.

It's only Tuesday and Trump has fucked up a pool for $14 Million, lost a war agreeing to pay Iran $300 Billion, and ballooned his already expensive ballroom budget by another $200 Million.

Where are the Republicans screaming about "waste, fraud and abuse"?

[Bill Madden @maddenifico]

This is fucking insane.

The Trump DOJ just stood in federal court and said with a straight face that the authoritarian regime could bulldoze the Statue of Liberty tomorrow — and there's nothing anyone could do about it.

When a judge asked point-blank: "If the government decides to destroy the Statue of Liberty before anyone can sue… nothing can be done?" The DOJ lawyer answered: "I think that's right, yes."

Let that sink in.

They're openly admitting they believe Trump has the power to erase one of America's most sacred symbols — the literal beacon of freedom for millions of immigrants — and the courts can't stop them in time.

This is authoritarian, dangerous, un-American bullshit.

The Statue of Liberty isn't their property to demolish on a whim. It belongs to the American people.

Wake the hell up, y'all!

[KB in the PNW-Resisting since 1964 @KirstyBain65]

Did anyone in the know ever follow up with this grand theft from the White House last year?! Seems to me someone should know where that historic desk now sits and if it’s in the gilded but moldy Mar A Lago mausoleum it should be brought back IMMEDIATELY!

We need SCOTUS reform!

[Jenni @hashjenni]

The Supreme Court is apparently only there to remove the rights of women and minorities, at this point.

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

🚨MAJOR BREAKING: Rep. Pat Ryan just revealed that Pete Hegseth ordered military members to an area in Kuwait with an ACTIVE WARNING they had ZERO defense against drone attacks and he IGNORED IT.

Six were then KILLED. Survivors blame Hegseth.

This is even WORSE than Benghazi.

[Kindness Matters @paywithkindness]

WTF?

She's overseeing the Epstein files.

She says she has no conflict of interest.
