Don’t worry, considering how they gutted the EPA you’re gonna go back to the 80s pretty fast. And it won’t even have the fun parts like funky music, disposable income and drugs.


I always found the story of that so fascinating.
The British commander that took Washington wanted to take the city peacefully and entered the city under a flag of peace but some Americans in the city opened fire and wounded his horse and killed some of his soldiers. That made him change his mind and he ordered the burning of all public buildings in the city. And his orders were followed so only public buildings such as the White House, parts of the Capitol, the Department of War were burned. The only government building that survived unscathed was the Patent Office because the guy in charge of it pleaded with the British and they listened to him.
The general also wanted to burn down some newspaper that was printing negative stuff about him but some women convinced him not to do it as the fire would likely spread to their houses. He instead ordered the soldiers to take the newspaper building down brick by brick and then ordered the printing equipment destroyed so they can’t write more about him. I always found that to be hilariously petty.
Also another story I heard was that President Madison was so sure that the British wouldn’t take the city that he had a dinner party prepared for that evening. When the British sappers came to burn down the White House they ate all the food and drunk all the wine prepared before starting to burn the White House down.
After sometime a big storm came and put out the fires and even a tornado landed in the middle of the city. The British decided to get out at that point as the storm caused a lot of damage to the city and casualties to their troops and civilians. As they were pulling out the general asked some woman if this is the kind of weather they get in these God forsaken lands. The woman told him the storm was sent by God to save them from their enemies and the general retorted that the storm actually helped them finish destroying the city.


I think he wanted to clarify it wasn’t because of their weight.


A shoebox? In this economy?


The FBI sells merchandise?


He’s blatantly robbing the American taxpayers. People should be out in the streets for this.


I wonder if he’s paying them from taxpayer money.


They’re all going to get pardoned.


Can’t wait until food gets more expensive because land that was used for growing food is going to be used for bio-fuel.


Trump doesn’t even know how to play regular chess.


I wonder if their government is subsidizing them in some way. But also looking at it most of them are on apartment buildings so it may just be that every tennant in the building chips in to a common fund to get them installed so they get lower electricity costs. Pretty smart investment since those panels last for decades and the cost will be covered way before they reach end of life.


Is Trump going to be the first president to divorce while in office? Maybe someone should tell him no other president did that.


A lot of concern and no consequences.


I mean if the Daily Mail found it then you can be sure that foreign intelligence found it way earlier. There’s a reason you’re supposed to do background checks and vetting for high level government officials. Since Trump doesn’t give a shit about all that I wouldn’t be surprised if more of his cronies aren’t actively being blackmailed.


Why would they do that. Trump has been great for them.


Pete’s Warriors just need a little bit of help. Warriors ask for help don’t they?


Because it went great for the Roman Empire when the Praetorian Guard were the ones choosing the Emperor. You don’t really want to open that door.


Studies in the 50s also said that asbestos was a good material to insulate your house with.
You use a livestock carrier. People already ship thousands of live cows and sheep with those. The largest ones can ship up to 7000 heads of cattle.
