Website already changed and if you do a domain name search all of the combos were purchased on December 8. It’s been in the works for a couple of weeks, at least. Timed to be announced on or about December 19! Hmmmm, I wonder why?

Yeah we've been hearing that for 10 years now. The GOP is full of spineless jackals who will never take any risk whatsoever. Don't expect them to save us any time soon.

I totally wasn’t viewing this as saving us.

Right? Installing Vance counts as 'saving us'?

What a damn shame.

Who cares? The next Dem president can rename it.

It hasn’t been renamed now. Need Congress to actually rename it.

The website has already been changed.

Exactly. People really need to stop saying “he can’t do that!”

He’ll do it anyway. The rules have been thrown out the window. We will literally not survive this presidency if people can’t wrap their heads around this and organize accordingly

^he has figured out that you can simply change websites and building exteriors to ram a new reality into being while the courts take a year sussing out whether or not it is “allowed.”

We really really need better mental frameworks and counter strategies for these things

They already added Trump's name to the facade. Unbelievable.

Kennedy Center: President Trump’s name was already being added to the performing arts center in Washington early Friday, just a day after its board moved to rename it the Trump-Kennedy Center. The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts was built as a living memorial to the 35th president, and it has been generally understood that the power to change its name lies with Congress, which has not acted.

+1 Same with the destruction of the White House. By the time the National Trust for Historic preservation got around to telling Trump that he wasn't allowed to change the East Wing, it had been demolished for weeks.

Btw Wikipedia has remained one of the last few democratized informational lines of defense as this admin alters reality - the Kennedy Center page (at least now) correctly notes that the name has not been legally changed, and the name hasn’t been changed there

Please consider donating to Wikipedia as they’ve been struggling in the age of AI

What do you mean? Why would they have been talking about this in 2015? Or during the Biden years?

Was just discussing what would make an apt memorial to Trump in the way that the Kennedy Center feels like an apt memorial to JFK (and, really, Jackie) and my suggestion was a giant gold toilet. I can't think of anything that better encapsulates the Trump ethos.

Snake exhibit at the zoo.


The Donald Trump Federal Prison has a nice ring to it.

He really does remind me a LOT of Stalin, but Stalin was a self-made man who actually sort of accomplished something as a young man (not something good, but still) whereas Trump mostly just pissed sway his dad’s money.

Yes, Kash Patel wrote a children's book called The Plot Against the King. It's one of the reasons he was selected to head the FBI.

Here is the cover of the 3rd book

Those random colons are so discouraging.

Is Kash casting himself as the Merlin figure here? That’s so pathetic. Who is the woman in the green dress supposed to be. This is all so not normal. It’s like they read 1984 as an instruction manual.
