And yes, the spoilsports put up tarps to ruin the fun for everyone of seeing the name come down.
Orange Snowflake needed protecting.

As America celebrates 250, we’re marking 254 years since bold RI colonists burned the dreaded HMS Gaspee and sparked America’s path to independence.
Happy celebrating, RI!

NEW IMAGE: Worker removes a letter from Donald Trump’s name on the Kennedy Center. There is a tarp covering the building at this time. His name had to come down last night after a court order.

Yesterday went by, and the MAGA DOJ/IRS filed nothing to defend the Trump slush fund/tax amnesty “settlement” in the Trump versus Trump case, hiding behind Trump lawyers’ bare-bones denial.
Now on to further proceedings.
Next filing in a week by the retired judges.

Countdown: Today’s the day!
Let’s see what the corrupt and misbehaving MAGA DOJ has to say under oath about its “fraud on the court.”
Who will sign the pleadings?
What will they say?
Will the investigation continue?
We’ll keep watch.

I asked her what it means to see the crowd gathered outside the arts venue today. Here’s what she told me @CityCast_DC:

DHS and ICE have deployed recruitment ads featuring white nationalist slogans, songs, and imagery while lowering recruitment standards—facilitating the hiring of agents with histories of violent extremism.

I wrote to @SecMullinDHS to ask what he’s done to ensure DHS has not been infiltrated by violent extremists, and who is responsible for this dangerous recruitment campaign.

We have a President who is petrified of the truth getting out about his long friendship with Jeffrey Epstein.
Many questions remain.

Even with all the attention on this, Trump’s DOJ is STILL not releasing to the public a number of docs related to this accuser: agents’ handwritten notes from the interviews, license records, and a law enforcement report. They never investigated “Suspicious Activity Reports.”

There are many outstanding questions about President Trump’s longtime close friendship with the sex trafficking pedophile Epstein and a possible Russia angle, and the American people deserve answers.
