Holy #### they tore the entire east wing down. I thought they were just doing that one edge building. I don't think the White House has been this wrecked since 1812.

Nothing wrong with that. I'm also ripping out the east wing to add a ballroom to my rental.

Trump has pardoned Binance founder Changpeng Zhao, whose crypto exchange has been boosting the Trump family's own crypto venture.

Zhao pled guilty and admitted in 2023 to money laundering violations that allowed terrorists, drug traffickers and other criminals to move money

Zhao, along with figures like Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht getting full, unconditional pardons. Every super criminal it seems is being set free. It's as if Trump's so-called "War" on the cartels is simply muscling in on the international drug trade.

Always expect the worse.

Mobbed up felon pardoning other criminals isn’t a surprise.

It is astonishing that they're allowed to cover their faces. They are Law Enforcement. They should have a badge number, a nametag, everything.

Its like back in the day when Cops were going to crack some hippy skulls...they knew what they were about to do was wrong so off come the badges and nametags.

This is no different.

It's America, many things are assumed because "freedom!!" but in reality, it depends.

From a quick Google search:

- "Every suspect has the right to request that federal agents show identification. This does not mean that federal agents must comply with that request in all cases."

- "No law prohibits federal agents from wearing masks or plainclothes when making an arrest."

- "Federal agents do not need to disclose their identities when undercover or while undertaking certain investigative actions."

Any historians here interested to see the history of the White House building? You know, when building additions were added/changed, etc.?


Here you go. Scroll down to the Major Events timeline section and walk through a bit of history.
https://www.whitehouse.gov/about-the...e-white-house/


It seems lots of interesting building related things started in 1998.


America!

If I had been drinking something as I scrolled through it would have induced a legit spit take.

Who was the CP poster who used to post and after the election trumpeted: “the adults are back in charge”

Fitting quote on the top of the website’s contact page from everyone’s favourite President.

Quote:
“In everything we do, my administration will be inspired by a strong pursuit of excellence and unrelenting success. We will not forget our country, we will not forget our Constitution, and we will not forget our God.”

PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP – JANUARY 20, 2025

It's hilarious that he thinks he has class because he puts gold on everything but that couldn't be further from the truth. What a piece of ####.

In the tariff thread as well. Babyhands having a tantrum

Trump: The Ronald Reagan Foundation has just announced that Canada has fraudulently used an advertisement, which is FAKE, featuring Ronald Reagan speaking negatively about Tariffs. The ad was for $75,000. They only did this to interfere with the decision of the U.S. Supreme Court, and other courts. TARIFFS ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO THE NATIONAL SECURITY, AND ECONOMY, OF THE U.S.A. Based on their egregious behavior, ALL TRADE NEGOTIATIONS WITH CANADA ARE HEREBY TERMINATED. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DJT
