🚨Trump just revealed the White House ballroom is MUCH more than we previously thought - He's building a straight-up MILITARY hospital, research facilities, military meeting rooms, 360 degree defenses, drone capacity, sniper capacity, drone & missile proofing and the ballroom protects it all.

💥 BOOOOOOM 💥
Sobering thought… if a sophisticated bunker is being built and paid for with private, non taxpayer money. Well, whose building is it? Legally, donations, so ours. Right? Not really. Not sure I favor this at all. A dance hall I am totally onboard… but this? Hmm
Well as long as the dims never hold an office there I can deal with it.
We just don't want it to fall in the wrong hands.
And I'm not a dancer....
It all depends on where the funds actually came from. They don’t necessarily need to be honest about where they got the money. So just because they told us it’s private donations. Doesn’t necessarily mean it’s actually Private Donations.
One example being Funds filtered through the accounts of front organizations and companies. Would appear on paper to be donations. Even though in reality it’s Military/War Department Funds from organizations/contractors that are set up to get around playing legalese and funding games with Congress.
You’re right, they don’t need to be honest. But I think they kind of are, but have not been forthcoming about the full scope of the project.
Judging by what I’m seeing, they’re building a $300 million ballroom with a $2+ billion military facility under it. I expect they have enough donors to cover the surface level ballroom, but the rest is coming from taxes.
Billionaires donate to pay for buildings all the time. They get their names on it, maybe a sign/plaque on the wall, and bragging rights. Most of the time they don't own them unless the contract they signed gives them rights.
Miami International Airport is renaming itself to Donald J Trump International Airport - airport code will change from MIA to DJT in June. His name will be on it but he doesn't own it.
Nice, but btw it's PBI (Palm Beach International) that is becoming Donald J Trump International (DJT).
(There was a bill in congress to make Dulles (IAD) into Donald J Trump International but unfortunately went nowhere)
Thanks - I knew that but was thinking about the stupid TSA beta program they are doing with TSA at MIA (and a few other airports) when I typed it. TSA is trying to get people checked in and searched outside of the airport - I guess they want to move the lines elsewhere and put people on buses? Too much is happening today.
If I was DJT I wouldn't want to be associated with Dulles anyway. Even though it was named after John Foster Dulles (former Secretary of State) his brother Allen Dulles was the longest serving Director of the CIA.
Got it - apparently they're piloting a "remote terminal" for Boston Logan for JetBlue and Delta passengers - you park your car and go through TSA at the remote terminal and ride an airside bus to the main terminal.
New York had this long ago, but no TSA back then - it's an odd throwback.
