I think this is what NYC must have felt like during the events seen in the documentary Ghostbusters

Gas is $6, nobody can afford a house, and we just kicked starving people off SNAP so they now have to pay $8 for cereal. Why are we even doing this at all right now?

My best guess as to why this makes me so mad is the symbolism of it. We, the American people, own that house. Without any say by us, he tore down history for purely personal reasons. It's so clear he has zero respect for anything but himself.

It's clear from today's AP photos that Trump has entirely demolished the East Colonnade—added to the White House by Thomas Jefferson in 1805—and restored by Theodore Roosevelt in 1902. The East Colonnade didn't occupy the footprint of the Trump "ballroom"—its demolition was completely unnecessary.

What happens to the District when the federal government shrinks significantly? We looked at the last time it happened: the 1990s. ora-cfo.dc.gov/blog/lost-de...

How are we monitoring the federal downsizing and its impact on DC? This week’s blog post dives into the data we are monitoring and the dashboards we built for DC and Nationwide to track these impacts. ora-cfo.dc.gov/blog/federal...

The image shows two maps for federal civilian continued unemployment claims and state unemployment claims for US states with a color that indicates states with more or fewer claims. This image is a scree capture from a nationwide dashboard built by ORA to track impacts from federal downsizing.

Nearly 8 million Americans work in industries targeted by tariffs that other countries have imposed in response to President Trump's — and the majority are Trump voters, a New York Times analysis shows. nyti.ms/4iRoCH2

A graph of the U.S. where foreign governments are answering President Trump's tariffs with tariffs of their own. The majority of the U,S, workers affected are Trump voters, a New York Times analysis shows. The headline reads: "Trade War Retaliation Will Hit Trump Voters Hardest."

Not great financial news for D.C.: The CFO's quarterly revenue estimate shows that for FY26, which starts in October, D.C. is expected to take in $325 million less than it expected back in December. And that repeats in the following years. A big cause: federal layoffs.

The federal government spending money on pediatric cancer research is good, actually.
