  • About that White House ballroom and the East Wing
    Piano*DadP Piano*Dad

    How much of that is elaborate kickbacks, one wonders, and inflated margins.

    I suspect a restoration, done accurately, could cost double that figure.

  • About that White House ballroom and the East Wing
    Piano*DadP Piano*Dad

    I'm thinking some smart Democrats are going to promise to demolish the structure in 2029, and they won't bother asking any commission for permission.

    In fact, a smart play is to tell the corporations that have funded this demolition of the East Wing and its replacement with this monstrosity that they will be expected to open their wallets again to fund the historical renovation of what was there. They will be told that the East Wing will be rebuilt and the grounds fully repaired. I suspect a complete and accurate replication of the East Wing will cost many times what the bombastic (but surely cheaply done) ballroom will cost. And those firms and individuals will likely agree to fully fund it, knowing that a refusal will have significant negative consequences for them. No one will need to spell out those consequences in plain language.

  • Where’s the thread about the peace deal?
    Piano*DadP Piano*Dad

    Yeah, I saw the same thing. Tell Netanyahu not to come to a deal because that would help Harris, and now he wants credit, a year later and 40K deaths later. Yeah, peace prize worthy!

    The war may restart in a few weeks when Hamas tries to reassert control over the strip.

    Ahem, "I" remember when his mother crowned him in Caernarfon Castle as well .....

    I was in Britain at the time, though not in Wales.

  • Covid, again.
    Piano*DadP Piano*Dad

    I got my booster last Friday, and then started feeling slightly ill on Sunday night into Monday. Hmmm. Last night I said, "damn, did I get Covid three days after getting the vaccination??? Bummer."

    Well, the test was negative.

    This thing we used to call the common cold seems to have gotten into me somehow ...

    Yeah, Maher was indeed "cancelled" by ABC under fire from the Bush administration. And he was cancelled for saying something arguably correct, that the people who flew the planes into the WTC and the Pentagon may have been scum but they were not cowards.

  • A New Watergate Every Other Day

    ... and then it's buried under the weight of more scandal.

    "We're at the point where Trump does something worse than Watergate daily, often multiple times a day. And none of it makes news; it's just normal now."

    IT'S JUST NORMAL NOW .....
