It’s doable if you’re not constantly changing the plans. The issue appears to be that he keeps changing things about it. Every plan or rendering they’ve released is different and it keeps getting bigger with each iteration.

politics @lemmy.world•The White House ballroom will never be built
221·26 days agoI wonder what a demolition crew does if you don’t pay them. Other tradies will typically just rip out their work, but it’s not like a demo crew can easily rebuild something they tore down.

politics @lemmy.world•The White House ballroom will never be built
1211·26 days agoI’m actually amazed how he keeps finding new suckers after decades of doing it in the private sector and almost 10 years of doing it as President. The only ones that really came out ahead are the criminals that bought their pardons. Everyone else gets screwed one way or another.

News@lemmy.world•ICE Accidentally Publishes A ‘Watch List’ Of Immigration Lawyers, Which Is Definitely A Normal Thing For The Government To Do
20·29 days agoProbably attached it in the CMS and didn’t upload the file as private even if the page itself was, or something like that. Users mess up permissions all the time.

politics @lemmy.world•Man who documented Uyghur camps in China may face removal from US after ICE arrest
21·1 month agoBetween this and how they treated Afghans that collaborated with them, this is going to be a long term issue for future recruitment efforts.
Still not sure if it’s deliberate, but Trump is taking the exact steps one would take to dismantle the American Empire.

World News@lemmy.world•Putin should have accepted Trump’s deal. Now Russia’s collapsing economy could lead to his downfall | Simon TisdallEnglish
42·1 month agoManpower is a bigger issue for Ukraine compared to Russia. Ukraine is at least not doing human wave tactics and doing more to keep their guys alive, but Russia can last longer in that aspect as well.
I do agree that Putin can’t stop the war for anything less than complete victory, otherwise people will start asking questions about why this was necessary as you said.

83·1 month agoYeah, they are still able to trade with China (which happens to make everything anyway), and as opposed to most countries, Russia can still draw on a lot of the remaining Soviet infrastructure that was specifically built because Russia needed to be self sufficient during the cold war.
As long as Putin can manage to remain in power Russia can keep this war going.

49·1 month agoYeah, the original post sounded very much like the typical fake story you see on Reddit.

Technology@lemmy.world•Israeli society is truly gone so outrageously far right that translation from Hebrew is now disabled on X (#Twitter) as of Nov16English
71·2 months agoYou have to keep in mind that ever since Elon took over Twitter, nobody’s left that actually understands how it works, so whenever they implement a change they do it in the most hamfisted way possible, usually in the presentation layer.
Disabling translation was just the easiest way to do this, as banning Israeli accounts for their actual hate speech was going to get the ADL on Elons ass.

News@lemmy.world•Trump administration will require SNAP participants to reapply for benefits
9·2 months agoThe SNAP system would probably be even cheaper if anyone could just apply for a card no questions asked. It’s a farm subsidy anyway, so just make it ‘the government will pay a chunk of your grocery bill so nobody has to go hungry’.

News@lemmy.world•Trump says he'll issue $2,000 tariff dividend to all except 'high-income people'
101·2 months agoThat’s weird, because the COVID checks were insanely popular and just giving everyone a $2000 check with his name on it would be great politics. I guess it’s good they’re doing it differently.

politics @lemmy.world•Man who threw sandwich at US federal agent found not guilty of assault
10·2 months agoIt took 3 grand juries to even be able to bring the case, it was always going to end in acquittal. Sure, it’s technically assault, but nobody was going to convict for that.

12·2 months agoI was kind of hoping the defence would produce a receipt that confirmed it was a BLT without onions, hence proving the agent committed perjury.

politics @lemmy.world•MAGA blame game erupts after Republicans suffer nationwide losses
1·2 months agoI feel like that stuff might be horrifying to most, it’s exactly what his base wanted. I guess it might peel off the ones that just believed his economic ‘message’.

11·2 months agoI mean, when he was on the ballot last time he did win. He has a way of drawing out his voters that luckily doesn’t easily transfer to other Republicans.

News@lemmy.world•Zohran Mamdani wins NYC mayor's race, capping a stunning ascent
573·2 months agoSome of the shit I’ve seen was honestly disgusting. Especially tying 9/11 to him somehow. Like the racism that’s traditionally coming from Republicans was coming from Democrats too.
Not implying he was President during the Biden years. I guess I meant as a prominent politician.
