Rep. Chip Roy stated, 'We aren't getting the job done. Part of that is because we are bound by this big, broken, fake filibuster of 60 votes. But part of it is you gotta have the willpower to do it.'
The tragic love story between Jack and Rose was built on luxurious travel, raucous parties, and secret nude sketches. This monument honors the bond between Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, a friendship seemingly built on luxurious travel, raucous parties, and secret nude sketches.
The American public volubly aired its opposition to US president Donald Trump's plans to build a $400m, 22,000-sq.-ft ballroom on the site of the demolished East Wing of the White House in an hours-long online meeting of the National Capital Planning Commission (NCPC) on Thursday (5 March). Led by White House staff secretary Will Scharf, who previously worked as Trump's personal lawyer, the commission is the final procedural hurdle the project needs to clear before construction can begin.
The Baltimore Museum of Art landed her highly anticipated exhibition, 'Amy Sherald: American Sublime,' after the painter pulled her show from the National Portrait Gallery due to concerns over censorship. The exhibit has been a significant hit at the BMA: It was completely sold out by late February.
"The object of the Museum is to acquire power," announces a crusty old archaeologist in Penelope Fitzgerald's 1977 satire, The Golden Child. It isn't a goal he respects. He wants the museum where he's settled into semiretirement to genuinely devote itself to educating its visitors. Instead, he correctly charges, its curators act like a pack of Gollums, hoarding "the art and treasures of the earth" for their own self-aggrandizement and pleasure.
She'd pulled on rain boots, driven about an hour and trudged through the mud of what her tour guide called "an industrial dump" early Saturday with dozens of other tourists to see "The Presidents Heads," a private collection of every ex-POTUS's sculpted likeness from Washington to George W. Bush. They're arranged in haphazard rows, with Andrew Jackson occupying a prime front spot simply because the owner likes his hair. The vibe is Stonehenge-meets-"The Walking Dead."
Hidden from all visitors, the current location is no different than the basement the plaque was kept in for years. Senators unanimously passed a bipartisan resolution in January directing the architect's office to prominently display' the memorial in a publicly accessible' part of the Senate wing until it could be permanently installed on the building's western side, as required by a 2022 law signed by former President Biden.
Donald Trump envisions his pet project as a sculpture park with 250 life-size, "realistic" statues made of marble, granite, bronze, copper and brass depicting a hodgepodge of historical figures-George Washington, Frederick Douglass, Kobe Bryant and Alex Trebek are all on the list. The president has said that the project will be completed in time for the US's semiquincentennial in July, but this seems increasingly unlikely, especially given that the sculptors who will create the garden's statues have not yet been announced.
Speaking to donors at a White House dinner, he revealed several scale models, inspired by Paris' Arc de Triomphe earning the project the nickname, 'Arc de Trump.' When asked by a CBS news reporter who the arch was for, he reportedly pointed to himself saying 'me,' adding that it would be 'really beautiful.'
"A lot of people said it was a dark day for democracy," Tillis said about Jan. 6, 2021, describing his memory of hearing the thousands of people "thugs," he said lay siege to the Capitol as Congress was tallying the 2020 election results. He said that because of the work of the law enforcement officers, it instead became a great day for democracy. "We came back and completed our constitutional duty to certify the election," he said.
The action happened swiftly, with brief debate, in floor action Thursday. Republican Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina had announced during this week's fifth anniversary of the Capitol siege that he would seek to ensure the plaque is installed, partnering with Democratic Sen. Jeff Merkley of Oregon, who was also working on the situation, and Democratic Sen. Alex Padilla of California. No senators objected.
"It was interrupted by a thing called the Civil War, and so it never got built," Trump said aboard Air Force One as he flew to Florida last weekend. "Then, they almost built something in 1902, but it never happened."
With a ring of massive columns and seating for more than 70,000 people, President Donald Trump may be getting the football stadium of his dreams. Renderings have just been released of the proposed design for a new stadium for the Washington Commanders NFL team, and the aesthetic is right in line with an architectural style the Trump administration has been championing with increasing passion.
