@SenWarren You wanted it to fail and said it was a win……explain how it’s a win for consumers and the people who lost their jobs.

Spiking fuel prices from Trump’s war was the nail in the coffin for twice-bankrupted Spirit airline. FWIW, JetBlue merger failed because a judge, appointed by Ronald Reagan, said the deal was illegal. Republicans are desperate to shift blame from higher costs hitting families.

@ChurchillDowns My dad was a harness owner until the late 80s….Go For Gin is the first time I really started paying attention to the Derby and Thoroughbreds…..

Name the horse that got you interested in horse racing! ⤵️

@RepoleStable @KentuckyDerby Smart move bringing a priest!!! Good luck 🍀

Happy Kentucky Derby Day to all!!!!! Yesterday wasn’t our day, Zany lost the Oaks and we lost 3 others races That’s racing. Today….is another day. 7 horses in. 4 in stakes.

The cost difference doesn’t matter. Obama did have broader changes that were over $300 mil, as did other Presidents. The difference comes down to prior renovations following a process like getting Congress approval. That’s all I was looking for, but thank you for your smart ass comment thinking you are so smart….hope that made you feel good!!!

@74StevenDaSilva @grok @washingtonpost You want to know the difference between putting in a basketball court and building a ballroom for 2000 people and a bunker for President of the United States? Why not just compare the difference between a piece of gum and a can of caviar

The National Trust for Historic Preservation will continue its legal challenge to President Trump’s planned ballroom, rejecting a DOJ demand to drop the case because of the shooting this weekend at the White House correspondents’ dinner. wapo.st/4edHrFj

@MartyMonaghan4 @DougMetropolis @washingtonpost @grok If you think that’s what I’m trying to compare than you are the stupid FK...Obama didn’t just do basketball courts, Bush did renvoations…Do some research and don’t be so narrow minded…..point to legal challenges to any White House renovations. That’s all I’m asking…..

@DougMetropolis @74StevenDaSilva @washingtonpost @grok 50k you stupid fk 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 you desperate assholes really do try

The word “should” isn’t really relevant here. It’s not about assigning characteristics to a precedent — it’s about gathering the actual data and seeing what happened in past cases. Were there legal challenges? Was there a pattern where a precedent was established? If no legal challenge occurred, then there’s no precedent to point to in the first place.

@74StevenDaSilva @washingtonpost @grok In order to give context properly, what characteristic should the precedent have?

Funny how you jumped straight to insults. At no point did I say the situations were comparable — I was asking a question to understand prior precedent. I included past renovation as an example to give the AI more context, which clearly didn’t land. I’d expect anyone with a high school diploma to gather enough information before drawing a conclusion.

@74StevenDaSilva @washingtonpost @grok Someone ask Grok if anyone with at least a high school diploma thinks these two things are remotely comparable.

@grok @washingtonpost It’s hard to believe there have been no other White House renovations? Bush started did renovations to the West Wing and then expanded to the East Wing under Obama.

Obama's basketball court was a simple adaptation of the existing South Lawn tennis court (added hoops + lines). Privately funded, cost ~$50k max—no new build, no demolition, no lawsuits. Trump's ballroom is a large new East Wing addition, estimated at $400M (also privately funded via donors). It faces the ongoing National Trust lawsuit over missing procedural reviews. No similar legal challenges for past presidential White House renovations (Truman's full rebuild, etc.). This appears to be the first.

@grok @washingtonpost How much did it cost compared to the Ballroom? Have there been any legal challenges in the past for renovations driven by presidents?

No, there were no legal challenges from the National Trust or anyone else to President Obama's 2009 project. He simply added basketball hoops and lines to the existing outdoor tennis court on the South Lawn (built in the 1950s) so it could be used for both sports. No new build, no demolition, and no lawsuits.

@wingoz How much did that cost? I would have taken half to provide the same conclusion!!!

Breaking news… stimulants work

@CorieWhalen @JoshKraushaar MA has about 40% Republican. 0 Rs in Congress and Senate. This has been the norm….all both sides care about is power….the people are just in their way.

Just voted no on the most egregious ballot measure I’ve ever encountered—both in framing and outcome. The dishonesty of this question alone should probably render it illegal, on top of the fact that it upends constitutional processes and was brought up now simply so one political party can have an extreme partisan advantage during this year’s midterm elections. If this measure passes, Democrats will almost certainly win in 91% of Virginia’s congressional districts. Yet as currently drawn, the districts are split between six represented by Democrats, and five represented by Republicans—which is in line with the way Virginians have voted in federal elections. This whole exercise is a truly outrageous example of blatant corruption that should be rejected by any honest observer (if they can even interpret the ballot language, which is so dishonest and misleading that it’s virtually impossible to understand absent significant outside context). As an independent who has voted for both Democrats and Republicans, I never want to hear another Virginia Democrat (not to mention all of the out-of-state heavy hitters, including Barack Obama) say they oppose gerrymandering again. Same with their constant invoking of “democracy” and “fairness.” It’s all a lie. And this isn’t to absolve any Republican gerrymandering in other states—it’s to note that there are no honest brokers on this issue. Democrats cannot claim the moral high ground here, yet their language insists they’re somehow better on this issue and that their goal is lofty. But the nonsense is so easy to see through if you scratch the surface. I suspect I’m not alone as an independent in being tired of this.

@Polymarket Good luck finding another country to give you a better deal 🤣

@Verizon @VerizonSupport Why is it so hard to get what was offered when I switched from @ATT I’ve had to contact you 4 times due to device credits that were not applied on my account. Keep being told it’s all set won’t be a problem again. Service is worse, not keeping your promises, GenAI chat sucks, issues with number porting, couldn’t use Apple add on…..problem after problem…

@LisaMarieBoothe Not when they are giving you money 💰

I thought billionaires were bad.

@tracybeanz My money is on his billionaire opponent…..$$ talks in DC!!!

I wonder what Swalwell did to piss the machine off… none of this would be happening otherwise. The women would be pressured or threatened into silence. . . The left has no virtue, so let’s be real. There’s something else going on here.

@LisaMarieBoothe They were complicit as usual. The vote to suppress the individuals who have paid out of their sex harassment fund tells you everything…..

How long do you think the media and Democrats knew about Eric Swalwell’s indiscretions? I'd be willing to bet that if he were officially the nominee, we wouldn't be hearing about it. Strange how that works.

@LisaMarieBoothe Well, when one of your oppenents is a billionaire, you know he had the $$ to make this happen and buy all the dem leaders. It was like their statements were pre-written based on how quick they went out!!!

The coordinated hit job on this guy is extremely impressive. Brutal.
