This whole thing stinks like a dead mackerel! Gawd, I am so effing sick of the gazillionaires and their machinations, and the way Trump is their "useful idjit"!
It is totally corrupt in appearance. What seems off to me is whether Trump would 'settle" for a paltry one million for an asset and revenue generation stream that extends decades into the future.
Fabulous post explaining why the Gordie Howe International Bridge hasn't yet opened. There are so many good lines here. Here are two of them: "Maybe somewhere in a government office there is a binder labeled “Outstanding Issues” and inside it are ten extremely boring reasons involving signage, customs booths, and the emotional needs of traffic cones. That could be true, but the public hasn’t been given that binder."
Just as the Congressional Republicans all heralding a bipartisan bill aimed at improving housing affordability, upending a celebratory moment for Republicans and Democrats. Of course the Republicans vying to keep their Congressional seats come this November’s election this was something to “toot their own horn” on that fabricated word “affordability” for the American people. All them ad the “eager beavers” to promote the measure as evidence they were trying to bring down costs.
Yep in comes Trump and his announcement that declared the bill to be “of minor importance”… You see Trump said in a social media post that he would not sign the legislation until Congress passed an unrelated law to impose new restrictions on voter identification and mail-in voting, the SAVE Act…. Totally unrelated…
Rarely do we see true bipartisanship in Washington, yet this week, Congress managed the impossible: a meaningful, 380-page housing bill designed to lower costs for struggling families. It was a rare, tangible 'win' that even the White House initially championed.
Then came the pivot. By abruptly conditioning his signature on unrelated voting restrictions, Trump once again has effectively taken a hammer to that progress.
This isn’t governance; it’s hostage-taking. To prioritize a partisan campaign agenda over a solution to the housing crisis—a crisis that is currently squeezing the life out of the American middle class—is a profound dereliction of duty.
Trump’s choice is always clear: he would rather preside over division than deliver an accomplishment that doesn't center on his own political ego, his own accumulation of wealth, his own cronies making the millions. You see he doesn’t benefit, there is absolutely no “quid pro quo” involved.
We are watching the machinery of government be deliberately smashed simply because he refuses to do one thing that will benefit anyone other than himself. It doesn’t matter if it’s infrastructure, national security, going to war, invading another sovereign nation or threatening our allies, or even a stinking Reflection Pool…. It is exhausting, it is cynical, and for millions of families counting on relief, with this bill it is a betrayal. Opening and even using the Gordie Howe bridge, or taking a walk along the Reflecting Pool that now is impossible because there’s a six foot fence around it, a tarp still draped over the Kennedy Center after his name is removed, just all of what has occurred since January 20, 2025 has been a pure mass of shit that not one American deserves to endure, not one.
This is “our country” not his or anyone who follows him proclaiming anyone who doesn’t follow him doesn’t love this country… What’s exhausting is that “We do love this, our country and we are tired of this crap because he doesn’t give a rats ass about anyone or anything other than himself!”
So tired of an 80 year old man constantly lying, playing some victim and running around proclaiming “What’s In It For Me!”
Thanks for bringing attention to this. Still trying to find one thing this Administration has done to benefit the American people.

This is <chef's kiss>. If only it weren't so infuriating.
What we need now are three billy goats gruff. Trolls identified and located.
