US Park Service gave $17mn *no-bid undisclosed* contract to the same company that does the East Wing. To fix *two* simple fountains.
To the initial estimate, they added ~25% *twice* for "inflation" and then added 50% for "urgency".
No #corruption at all. 🙂‍↔️

#NYT: #Ukraine is thinking of naming a part of #Donbas “Donnyland” and give control over to Trump's "Board of Peace".
So, Trump can turn around and sell that land to #Russia? 🥺
At this rate he *is* going to end up a trillionaire. 🙂‍↔️

"The president’s East Wing plan upends the symmetry of the White House"
The obvious solution is to tear down and rebuild the West Wing to match.
(Just you wait and watch.)
