“conspired to violate the law” by their illicit participation in Trump’s re-branding scheme, “and “they need to be held accountable, too,” says Sen. Van Hollen. And that incudes you, Ms. Second Lady Vance.
Sen. Van Hollen identifies that part of JFK’s achievement “was recognizing the importance of the arts in our culture,” whereas Trump “does not believe in the arts.”
Mary Trump reminds us that Trump |”and his administration have underfunded or defunded them.”
Whereas, even if he did it in large part at Jackie’s urging, JFK spoke up for the arts like no other president past or since.
Mary tells the Daily Beast that Trump “wants to turn every public space in America into some version of WWE or Ultimate Fighting, and it is just grotesque that he thinks that somehow this legitimizes him or gives him the same stature and standing as somebody like President Kennedy. But that’s partially why he’s doing it.”
And no, Trump’s redesign and interior decorating fetish are not “saving” the Kennedy Center, as his hysterical flaks insist. In reality, they are driving it to white elephant status: a bedizened, discredited, audience-free mausoleum honoring Trump’s disdain for the arts, his sclerotic, cirrhotic ego, his contempt for democracy and for the United States of America–will he soon it rename i”Trump’s USA”?
You darn well better come up to speed, Gov. Newsom.
Otherwise, no presidency.
when he tweets that:
“The Democratic Party is guided less by its stated values than by fear of angering lobbyists, special interests, consultants, and major donors. And yet the fear that should matter most, losing voters, is the one most consistently ignored.”
as Village Preservation documents that her term under Eric Adams was the worst for landmark preservation since the Landmarks Preservation Commission was established sixty years ago.
about Trump’s obscene rebranding of the Kennedy Center.
But are they going to do anything?
America’s cultural debasement marches on, as cultural commissar Donald J. Trump names this national institution after his vulgar, ignorant, anti-cultural self. Get ready for a complete boycott.
He’s treating the KC like one of his casinos–and we know how they turned out.
The Dems are going after rump’s KC on the basis of the unbelievable graft and nest-feathering his minions are getting away with there.
But wo will decry Trump’s cultural desecration? Who will stand up for American culture?
Brooks and Epstein were pals–NATCH.
As FAIR reports, it’s not just Epstein: the “news” department at the Times has been trying to portray Epstein’s surviving accomplices/clientele as the real victims.
P.S. Now the Times has scrambled together a statement explaining that Books appeared at an Epstein-spnsored conference in 2011–years after Epstein sex predation was public knowledge–so there’s nothing to see there.
Kinda like Peter Thiel’s admission that he solicited tax advice from Epstein during the same post-discovery time period.
Liza Featherstone at The New Republic describes how the Trump administration is determined to make our air, water, and soil as toxic as possible.
“The administration’s commitment to spreading the fatal disease is impressive.”
Where are the Democrats? Are they just too tainted by the prescriptions of has-been neoliberal operatives to make a stink?
Wouldn’t want to swing at this existential pitch, would we?
and trashed it with his sabotage of America’s COVID response.
He inherited Biden’s recovering economy and in less than a year has incinerated it.
The Democrats must repeat those facts over and over again.
If Trump’s manic, Hitlerian repetition of lies s could convince Americans that day is night and up is down, think what repeating the truth unceasingly could do for for the Democratic party?
