FTA:

"In a motion filed Friday, inept National Park Service (NPS) lawyers blandly contend that the federal judge's order to suspend construction of the new facility poses a risk to Dummkopf Trumpf, junta apparatchiks, visiting mega-oligarchs and sinister members of the self-serving Trumpf Crime Family (TCF).

"Time is of the essence!" the lawyers beg, citing materials that will be installed to make a "heavily fortified" facility. The ballroom construction also includes bomb shelters, military installations and a medical facility, according to the filing."

"Time is of the essence!"

Really? Why is that? The threat of covert Iranian suicide bombers wearing nuclear backpacks?

Nope.

Because Donald "Uday" Trumpf Jr (48) wants to marry silver-spooned socialite Bettina Anderson (40) in that once completed garish White House ballroom to help establish the dynastic Trumpf Crime Family (TCF) as permanent overlords of the American people. Source: TCF is America's Romanov Dynasty

Albert Speer recalled going over plans for construction of Adolf Hitler's dream metropolis Germania, complete with Triumphal Arch, with him down in the fuehrer's Berlin bunker in April 1945 just before the Red Army showed up. That's narcissistic obsession for you.

It's a pox on our country that our only option at the moment with a national security threat is to vote it out of office

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming

And the sign said, "The words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls
And whispered in the sounds of silence"

I'd contend that continuing to allow Trump to do think9s26; b4allrooms,6 wars, etc. without Congressional ov4ersi7ght and approval is the biggest threat t4o7 our security.3 Have yo noticed? He's batsh*t crazy!

I'm surprised Trump hasn't issued an executive order to build his bunker yet.

Trump's actions are not of someone planning on leaving the presidency anytime.
