The Kennedy Center board has voted to close the center after a tense meeting in which President Donald Trump called in to berate a Democratic congresswoman who serves on the panel, according to two sources familiar with the matter. https://cnn.it/4iwrlJc
KENNEDY CENTER CEILING COLLAPSES

Security cameras caught a large section of the Kennedy Center’s Grand Foyer ceiling slamming onto the floor during a storm on September 4. It missed a security guard by minutes. Had a performance been underway, people could have been killed.

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick posted the footage and did not mince words. Failing roofing, collapsing concrete supports, and rotting steel have made the building unsafe. The entire complex is in the same condition. It must be closed and rebuilt.

The Kennedy Center has long run at a loss of $80 million to $100 million a year. Without a serious fundraising effort, it faces bankruptcy. Lutnick said only President Trump, as board chairman, can deliver the renovation on time and on budget while raising the money to keep the lights on.

Years of deferred maintenance produced this result. The video is a warning, not a surprise. The building should be shut down now and put in the hands of the one person who has shown he can actually get the job done.


Niote last month , Obama U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper ruled that the Kennedy Center's board does not have the legal authority to alter the institution's name without explicit congressional approval. Board had added Trump's name to the facade..
Who doesn't know Trump.likes his name emblazoned everywhere in gold wherever possible?

Oboy!!!
Terrible thing to happen ,althoughi suspect you want us to think the detainees are mistreated to the point of losing their babies.
Nit a single word from you about this.

As of early 2026, federal authorities have located or accounted for more than 145,000 unaccompanied migrant children nationwide. This total follows an intensified auditing and tracking effort by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to follow up on over 300,000 cases of children released to sponsors during the previous administration.

Those lost children ,many have been doing forced labour ,others were being pimped out .
Joe Biden ordered that anyone claiming to be a relative of the children did not need a DNA test to prove relationship with the children.
You most likely agree that's in the best interest of the unaccompanied children being taken away from detention centres by strangers to Shaytan knows where.

Leftists baying for the blood of the lone black juror who refused to acquit Lindsay.
His family has said they are afraid to leave their home.

#BreakingNews Hold Juror Says the eight not-guilty jurors were “activists."...He identified himself as a conservative and a Catholic.

Ray of Fugitive TV spoke with Michael, the holdout juror in the Lindsay Clancy trial (Michael was not on camera). Ray shared a recap of their conversation along with some related documents.

The following is based on memory of that recap and may omit a few details.

Michael stated that he did not lie on his juror questionnaire. He checked the box regarding his prior arrest and provided a written description of the incident as required.

According to Ray, prosecutors questioned him about that description during voir dire, after which he was still selected to serve.

Ray indicated that Michael’s ex-wife most likely did not testify in the related domestic-violence/custody matter due to possible citizenship issues, though this remains unconfirmed.

Michael told Ray that deliberations began with two jurors voting guilty, two unsure, and eight voting not guilty.

He described the eight not-guilty jurors as “activists.” He also noted that the juror who later gave an audio-only interview had initially voted guilty on the first day before changing her vote.
Michael said he voted guilty based on the evidence presented in court.

He identified himself as a conservative and a Catholic. He also addressed the exercise-band demonstration involving water bottles, explaining that he was attempting to show fellow jurors what the bands would have looked like wrapped around “little necks.”

Michael expressed that he feels attacked and reported finding a man snooping around outside his home earlier that day.

These teenagers were born in America and were heading to enlist in the marines to fight for America.

This is the assimilation you guys pretend to care about. These kids’ parents immigrated, raised them to value America and they decided to use their youth to join in the service of America and this is how they get treated. Simply for being brown.

Yet your concern is that California refuses to reward these thugs for their behavior. You sound lost honestly.

Why would I stop them if they want to study overseas.

The immigrant i hostile society is precisely that way because of the inherent superiority culture mindset of the white people and the fact that many immigrants engage in crime,giving them reasons to hate .

Change of Election rules isn’t the executive’s responsibility. Trump’s executive order is illegal.

Furthermore, no one changes the rules mid-game; it shows desperation. Trump overstepped.
The rules were to be changed over a year but the useless Republicans in the Senate refuse to pass the voterid Act.
Judges also delayed the challenges to ensure that it was impossible to have the rules be out in place

In SCOTUS ruling ,I believe they are being afraid of bring lynched by democrats.

Clarence Thomas and Alito dissented
Writing the dissenting opinion, Justice Alito (joined by Justice Thomas) fiercely defended the administration's policy:

Broad Postal Authority
: They argued that the USPS possesses massive legal power to regulate federal mail. They viewed the restrictions simply as standard mailing requirements rather than an unconstitutional takeover of state-run elections.

[i]The "Hail Mary Pass
": Alito dismissed the legal challenges brought by Democratic-led states, calling their lawsuits a "Hail Mary pass" that had very little chance of actually succeeding on the legal merits.

Preventing Fraud: They emphasized that the federal government has a "strong interest" in enforcing these rules to heighten ballot visibility and better detect potential election fraud.

Blaming the Courts for Delays: Alito openly criticized his fellow Supreme Court justices and lower courts. He argued that the court's own summer delays in processing the case were the primary reason the rules were being pushed so close to Election Day.
would [/i]

In any case the democrat states would have refused to comply ,with USPS on losing their judges would have declared the elections null and for every seat they lost.

If the democrats retake house they will switch to impeachment day one derikibg any meaningful bill .

The detention centre in my opinion was to encourage people to take advantage of the cash handouts to self deport.
The conditions there are verified by human rights groups and DOJ. Don't call them concentration camps, ,this is a democrat sound bite.
I think you live in a suburban neighborhood where criminal aliens aren't around. Which means you can proudly say they also have a spark of divinity in them while they havent eaten your goat.

Kilmar Garcia, I bet you he will.still be deported one day,, he is a human trafficker. Biden FBI ordered him released after he was caught ferrying illegal aliens ,the car owner has been imprisoned for ferrying undocumented persons. Kilmar is free because an Obama judge used every loophole and security of his tenure to impede ICE .

The choice of a detention centre is entirely upon Florida..Some of those who are held there are vicious killers who have committed terrible crimes back home.
Maduro didn't see the need to pay for prisoners upkeep so he freed them and sent them to Biden open arms.

You can virtue signal saying the illegal aliens should be held in luxury hotels until they rape your child.
The conditions at the detention centres are humane and not concentration camps you claim they are. This is a popular leftist talking point.

Your own state has passed a law banning anyone who has ever worked under Trunp 2.0 in ICE CBP or DHS immigration efforts from ever getting employed by California state bodies. A feeble mind interierts that as ICE, DHS or CBP are rogue terrorist bodies not statutory bodies enforcing laws Congress has passed.

Wow so noble of you.

You think an illegal immigrant (a civil offense btw) deserves to be harmed if they try to escape a concentration camp. I mean they tried to escape inhumane conditions as is a natural human response. What did they expect?

Aren’t you an angel?

You despise liberals? You’re inconsequential to liberals. I wish there were a liberal on earth who gaf what you think of them.

It’s only right for you to be held in the same conditions you wish for others. May what you want for others happen to you! If that doesn’t sound like a good thing to you, then maybe you need re-evaluate the deep hatred in your heart.

I already guessed this would happen
. Senate refuses toi pass the voterid Act ,the executive order would have been unnecessary.
An Obama judge has used every reason to make sure the order is time barred.

Anyway I'm.not an American although Im hoping democrats lose more seats than they hold due to AOC, DSA, Talarico et Al.

Democrats if they win the House can elect Ilhan Omar as the Speaher just to make her the third most powerful person

And there it is.. the SC grew some sense to arrive at this outcome.

The underlined is one key push back I had mentioned to basilico and benalvino3.

If you folks have ever managed an organizational change you would understand why hastily implementing Trumps executive order would have potentially led to chaos even for republicans..

Trump only thinks in one dimension. He never takes the time to assess the impact of his executive orders on many political and social drivers..

Nur Ilham Elmi Said Omar is officially under investigation.
Deport this DSA supporter , learing centres fraudster, antisemitic American hating woman.



She gained asylum.om fake documents ( as Omar not Elmi) and later married her brother .

AWH also confirms.


basilico:
Been proven right again. I've posted that IIlham Omar real names are Nur Ilham Elmi .
Her real father is called Elmi who.was a Colonel in Dictator Said Barre government. She and her sister came to America pretending to be a different family's child - the Omar family .
Her father joined her later. Her brother went on gain UK citizenship.
Nur Ilham Elmi married her brother for papers
DHS confirms she married her brother.

@bennyjohnson
🚨BREAKING: DHS Secretary Just Confirmed That Rep. Illhan Omar Did Marry Her Brother

“We know that she married her brother to try to bring him into the United States. There may be more to this, possibly some illegal activity."

I asked DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin about Omar’s further legal and immigration problems and his response: “Something’s Gonna Happen. This is an ongoing investigation.”

"When we move forward it's not political it's because you chose to break the nations laws. I don't make the law as anymore, Im in charge of enforcing the laws. I will not pick and choose which laws to enforce and which I'm not. We are going to enforce all of them regardless of who you are.”



Her brother was sent to America after adopting what appears to be a gay lifestyle in UK ..
Ilham also changed her year of birth from to make her younger than she was at the time of her naturalization.
If I was the house speaker I would demand her Omar surname be expunged .Would drive the left crazy.
Once again Basilico proven right
If Nur Ilham Elmi Said Omar is deported is that being racist.

Below are the Tweets of Talarico.. don’t mind that armed robber called Paxton..🤣🤣😅😅
"Every one of our neighbors with a uterus became the property of the state. And nothing, nothing, is more un-Christian than that."

Anyone with a uterus is a woman.

atheists and non-Christians are more 'Christ-like' than some Christian colleagues in the legislature."

Hostility to Xtian faithfuls?

God is nonbinary
What a faithful Presbyterian

Fix News.James Talarico, the Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate in Texas, once described parents who refused to acknowledge their children’s gender identity as potentially engaging in "abusive" behavior


He is likely a child groomer.
Foreign Affairs › Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by basilico: 5:36pm On Sep 14
We know FBI was targeting Catholic faithful as domestic terror threats.

So Talarico meant radicalized Catholics.
Or did he mean radicalized liberal white men like Tyler Robinson who shot Charlie Kirk.
Or the would be Trunp killer who was sentences to life in Florida.
Or Matthew Crooks the one who shit Trump.
Or Zachary Evetts ,Cameron Arnold and Bradford Morris who were each jailed for i 50 years for their armed attacks on an ICE facility.
Or Matthew Crooks who was shot dead after shooting at Trunp in 2024.



bayelsaowei:
Below were Telaricos words.. after reading it, please compare it with what that grifter wrote..

“Radicalized white men are the greatest domestic terrorist threat in our country.”

Take note of the adjective he used. He was specific about the kind of white men who pose the greatest domestic terrorist threat in the US.

He didn’t say “white men” in general.

You gerrit? If you don’t gerrit then forget abourit.

You guys are not ashamed. It is all these corner corner talks you want to deploy in debating Telarico? The old man Paxton is yet to agree to a debate to discuss pertinent issues affecting Texans.. shame on him.

I don't know which school taught you to make up stuff about what your political opponents must be thinking.

She jumped out of the window. If she thought she would die she would have killed the children by throwing them out of the same window. Makes sense, no? ( She absolutely knew what she was doing).

The lone black juror had been doxxed online. Ron de Santis has offered him asylum in Floridai.
Ultimate proof that the left is inherently evil .

A man was conscripted into jury duty by the government. He performed his civic duty and followed his conscience, refusing to acquit a woman who confessed to systematically executing her three children. The defense attorney immediately launched a public smear campaign against the juror. Soon several other jurors joined the campaign. Then the media. Even the defense attorney’s wife has joined.

Now they’re doxxing the man, digging into his past, contacting his family, showing up at his house. All of this both to punish him for refusing to go with their program, and to pollute any future jury pool by making it clear that anyone who votes to convict Clancy will have their life destroyed.

It’s truly one of the most outrageously evil things we’ve ever seen from the Left, and that’s saying something. A direct assault on the integrity of our justice system. They are burning down every boundary and standard in their path. And doing it all for the sake of a child murdering psychopath. Unfathomable
.


If there's a retrial the jury knows what verdict is acceptable.
If she's is found not guilty she will be renanded in a mental asylum until a doctor proves she is Okay to resume normal life. Her reason for killing was that a voice inside her head ordered her. How will a doctor know that one day that voice will not orddr her to do something crazy after 1, 5 or 20 years?
Those jurors should be forced to live with her for a year.
