" ... and replace it with a 100-story marble statue of himself. So sad ..."

The Great Pyramid in Egypt is only about 750 feet high so, yeah, the 100 story marble statue (~1000 ft) would be perfect in the flight path the National/Trump airport.

Everyone in this regime are all thirsty attention seekers with the mental and emotional IQ of a post and a 4 yr old child respectively. Shooting themselves in the foot daily.

"Instead, Chris LaCivita, who helped run the Trump 2024 campaign with Wiles told the Daily Mail: 'Whoever is feeding you this silly shit is an asshat.' [rude words restored by Yr Wonkette]"

And a poopyhead too also!

The former Kennedy Center used be the premier stage where talented divas sang their hearts out.

Now it is a mausoleum haunted by a grotesque ghoul eating his own heart out.

It's like a modern Phantom of the Opera, except stupid, orange, and even more decaying

Nothing exposes “strong leadership” like grown men fighting over mic time at a convention.

If your revolution collapses because someone didn’t get a primetime speaking slot, maybe it wasn’t destiny. Maybe it was middle school with better lighting.

The real tell is this: when proximity to power becomes the whole personality, exile to the Kennedy Center feels like Siberia.

Empire always eats its own. The popcorn is optional.

Mae’s sense now why the desperate ploy to add pedophile’s name to the center

"He dreamed of power and influence, but he ended up in charge of the Kennedy Center, where he’s had to settle for fighting with performers cancelling their shows instead of shaping world events."

Too bad there, Ric, but remember: There are no small parts, only small actors.

I really wish people would stop referring to us as 'trump's America'...it makes me ill.

This is hardly the worst of this administration’s many vile traits, but I am constantly amazed at their sheer pettiness.

I suppose we should be grateful. Every hour they spend hurting each other is an hour they’re not hurting decent people.

“[Grenell] served for a while as Trump’s incompetent director of national intelligence, setting a low bar under which Tulsi Gabbard managed to slide in the second term.”

We might be mistaking actual malice for incompetency in this case. I think that crazy 🤬truly hates America and is a Russian agent bent on its destruction.

Perhaps Ric (sic, JK) Grenell can reprise Bob Bell's (Bozo/WGN/Chicago) role as Andy Starr, elderly custodian of the Odeon Theater, showing "Three Stooges" shorts every weekday afternoon at 4 PM from 1959-1968, while the Kennedy Center is closed? He *is* qualified.

The Kennedy family is not without resources, so I do wonder what legal avenues they have explored toward protecting the Kennedy Center from being torn down or made unrecognizable.

Not only did Alice make that comment, but in the 1970s she kept a "salon pillow" in her parlor with the quote in needlepoint. I don't recall whether she made it herself or if it was gifted by an admirer, but she looks very pleased with it in this photo: https://stephenmballard.wordpress.com/tag/alice-roosevelt-longworth/

Aunt Robyn, Thank you for that link. I especially like the quote from Teddy Roosevelt at the very end. “I can be President of the United States, or I can control Alice. I cannot possibly do both." Classic!! Carter should used that one to respond to complaints about Billy.

Aunt Robyn's avatar

Yes! I love that quote also! One of my other favorite Alice tidbits is that as a 17-year-old young lady, she took with her to the White House her pet garter snake, Emily Spinach.
