ACT and their Atlas Network operative leader, David Seymour, are the tail wagging the National ACT NZF coalition. Luxon conceded pretty much everything ACT required from National.

The privately funded National Trust for Historic Preservation last week asked the U.S. District Court to block Trump’s project.
“No president is legally allowed to tear down portions of the White House without any review whatsoever
— not President Trump, not President Biden, and not anyone else,” the lawsuit states.
“And no president is legally allowed to construct a ballroom on public property without giving the public the opportunity to weigh in.”
Trump had the East W…

In 1863, at the height of the Civil War, two Baton Rouge photographers captured an image of a former slave's horrifically scarred back that shocked white Americans across the Union.
Now that photo is among dozens of exhibits about slavery at several national parks, which have reportedly been ordered removed by the Trump administration.
