Can you imagine the response from the liberal press if Trump were president while Hamas held Americans hostage?
There has been zero press pressure on the dithering fool currently residing in the White House while Americans are being slaughtered and held hostage by terrorists.
He’s right! The thing that worked here for so long was that we enforced our immigration laws so a limited number came in, people that came here could not use social services for 5 years, they integrated and were productive.
Is he wearing his special shoes?
GREAT!!

As the White (House) got bigger, did government get better?

George Washington lays the cornerstone of the White House
On this day in history, October 13, 1792, George Washington lays the cornerstone of the White House. President John Adams would be the first American president to live in the presidential mansion in Washington DC. Today’s White House, however, looks very different than the building that was originally constructed.
After Congress decided to locate the federal capital along the Potomac River in 1790, Pierre Charles L’Enfant was chosen to design a plan for the federal city. Part of the plan included space for a massive mansion, five times the size of the house that was eventually rebuilt.
In 1791, a public request was put out by President George Washington for potential designs for the president’s mansion. Irish architect James Hoban’s design was eventually chosen. Hoban had designed the Charleston County Courthouse in Charleston, South Carolina, a building Washington had seen when he visited there. Washington liked the courthouse’s design and Hoban’s plans for the presidential house looked very similar.
On October 13, 1792, Washington laid the cornerstone for the White House. The original home did not have the circular south portico or the northern drive under portico that Americans recognize today. Instead, both the north and south sides of the White House had only a series of eleven windows on 2 floors.
After the White House was burned in 1814 by the British, the building was mostly reconstructed. The familiar rounded south portico was added in 1824 and the north portico in 1830. The White House’s West Wing was not added until 1901 by President Teddy Roosevelt for more office space. President William Howard Taft built the first Oval Office there in 1909. The East Wing was first added by President Roosevelt, but has gone through several iterations, including time as a greenhouse and a cloakroom.
The White House was entirely gutted during the administration of President Harry Truman. A steel frame was placed inside the outer walls and all the inner walls were replaced. Today, the White House has six stories, 2 underground, a ground floor, the State Floor, Second Floor and Third Floor. The entire White House complex also has the East and West Wings for offices, the Blair House for guests and the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, which houses more presidential offices.

Then the idiot tries to make some kind of stupid funny move at the end to make it look like part of his schtick.
*hug*
Thanks for that link, Sis!
Glad you are better today!
Hubby is up on the roof working on a crack in the chimney.
He has a climbing harness on, so that’s good-and we
did a “safety point check” before he went up there.
Still make me nervous!
I’m sorry to say that my back is still the same.
I don’t think it will be better until they inject
with some medicine to calm everything down.
Doing okay otherwise, and just had a lovely shower!
Felt so good uder the water, that I didn’t want to come out!
*evil grin*

He doesn’t have the votes either!
Bannon said Jordan got around 150 so yes, he is short for the floor vote.
The House recessed till next Mon. or did he say Tues?
I saw that too. 😡🤬
Fiddling while the ship sinks.
Yeah, like “I meant to do that!”.
Good Lord, he won’t make it to Jan. 2024, let alone Jan. 2025.
And they’re going on break! Lock them in the room!
If they worked in the private sector, they wouldn’t take off.
That happened here too,CB.
Gas is down to $2.999/gallon this week.
