It’s totally sickening how much of our taxpayer funds are being stolen like this, the ballroom, for things not authorized or appropriated. Does it make law-abiding citizens feel like paying taxes just to have them used as this administration’s personal slush fund?
I can just hear the MAGA, "let me have sum that gubmint money".
They truly believe every non-white successful person is result of largess against them and justifies their right to our tax dollars. We have a damn color problem in America that I naively thought was in our rear-view mirror. It's really sad though that none are actually interested in bettering themselves with education or other endeavors to grow - just "give me the money".
Where is congress and the law? Where is our Appropriations Act, and Anti-Deficiency Acts?
"The Antideficiency Act (ADA) (31 U.S.C. §§ 1341–1351) prohibits federal employees from obligating or spending government funds before they are appropriated by Congress, or in excess of allowed amounts."
Oh, ... that's right the corrupted gop congress ignores their job.
Norm, why can’t the American people participate in a class action law suit to hold the government responsible for misuse of our taxpayer dollars for this graft and corruption? I’ll be the first to sign on.
When historians of the future begin to add up all the 'costs' of the tramp regime, these costs will /must include the financial destructions that donnie has brought, the costs of diminished international relationships, the costs to the American democracy in terms of trust and the failure of the political institutions. 'Cost' is never only in terms of money, it's always accompanied by blows to the very nature of our historical and institutional expectations. Once again, as much as I detest everything that tramp has done to bury America's democratic institutions and the American people, I truly despise the Court's primary role in creating and continuing this ongoing failure. Ms Rikleen's synopsis above is a good start in learning about and then taking a means to address this cesspool of corruption.
"The president, his two sons, and The Trump Organization have sued the Internal Revenue Service — an agency the president oversees — for $10 billion, alleging the IRS disclosed confidential tax information to the media."
Before any settlement is considered, just what was confidential? Just because it was claimed does not make it so. Also, what part of the information was what Trump promised to divulge as a candidate?
Trump has entered the realm of Forgotonia relating to the document raid at Mar-a-Lardo. He was given the chance (twice) to return them; that they should never have left the White House in the first place was forgotten. The FBI had a warrant and executed it. Lies and specious arguments abound.
So where are the champions of restitution for the capital police-the real victims of January 6th??? At a minimum any remuneration for the rioters should be reduced by the governments’ insurance, medical, and loss of service costs for police attacked in service of their country.
That our government plays fast and loose with our VERY hard-earned money is an abomination. And that the members of that government that we elected to serve our interests have given way to and even approved the appointment of Trump’s selected grifters and goons is unacceptable. Every caring American must contact their elected folks and tell them”stand up for our rights and our interests or we are voting you out at the nearest opportunity.
Michael Flynn is owed nothing by the government. He got his pardon. Anyone else who had intentionally lied to the FBI would be prosecuted and looking inside a jail cell. Nobody but Flynn made that decision. To think that taxpayers are paying for his lawsuit against the government is completely obscene. Maybe it’s also time to limit pardon power.
The egregious pillaging of honest citizens on the orders of Thief In Chief Trump by “his” Department of Jackals is the price we pay under MAGA. The Red Court, the Invertebrate Congress, and the rapacious attention seekers in the Cabinet are a life lesson about assuming the Government can be run on autopilot. Greed, desire to control the lives of others, desire to hurt others, and lust for being worshipped and feared, yes, they are all here. We will take our Nation back. There will be handwringing and claims of unfairness by MAGA, but we will recover and MAGA will make restitution for its evil deeds. Trump and his allies will see the insides of prison cells for their evil deeds as well, unless they flee to a welcome in another dictator’s country. America will have a new Birth of Freedom, until the next time.
This theft of our taxpayer dollars makes me very mad: let’s hope we get into the position of being able to imprison every one of these bad actors for life.
Trump continues to put the POS into POTUS. He is nothing but a demented, low IQ crook! How, in the world did this country elect this guy as President?! TWICE!!!!!!! What does that say about our electorate? Nothing good, that's for sure!!!

STOLEN is correct.
I can just hear the MAGA, "let me have sum that gubmint money".
They truly believe every non-white successful person is result of largess against them and justifies their right to our tax dollars. We have a damn color problem in America that I naively thought was in our rear-view mirror. It's really sad though that none are actually interested in bettering themselves with education or other endeavors to grow - just "give me the money".
And those people would get the money and be bankrupt within 12-18 months.
They would buy a new pickup that gets 1 mile per gallon, and lose the rest through online gambling.

The American Bar Association (ABA) is hosting a webinar titled "Blowing the Whistle: False Claims Act Litigation in the Age of Tariffs" on June 3, 2026. This session will focus on whistleblower and False Claims Act (FCA) litigation stemming from recent developments in tariff and trade law. https://americanbar.my.idaptive.app/run?appKey=686fb634-f16b-4bdc-8159-d9692bc9fa67&customerId=AAV0093&auth=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsImtpZCI6IjNmZTQ1ODViLTc4ZTktNDg0MS1iMjEwLTEzMjI0Y2Y2MTU4YiJ9.eyJTZXNzaW9uSWQiOiJiYjM5N2UzMC0xMTExLTQ2ZGMtYjM3My0wOTNmMGI3YmIwYjgiLCJleHAiOjE3ODU0MTEyODAsIlVzZXJVdWlkIjoiZmQ4ZWQxY2MtNTI0NS00M2IxLTkxYWEtNzIxYzk2ODhiNjEyIiwiVGVuYW50SWQiOiJBQVYwMDkzIn0.FIu1__oUeABrT67Ns4N9f0bBTl7O6xBpvEo_Y2vwuGM&login=

Very unfortunate that you'll be the first to sign on Karen but I'll be happy to be at least, the second...😉
I have a correction to make.
Todd Blanche is not "Trump's former defense attorney". He still is but this time we are paying for his services. How much lower can they go?
Best not to ask the question 'how much lower can they go'. We have seen that there is no apparent bottom.

tRump's Inferno: The circles of Hell
1. Will you lie for me?
2. Will you go to jail for me?
3. Are you loyal to me above all others especially including the US Constitution?
4. Are you part of my family who is not on my enemies list?
