Ah right, it's the dems that are stopping this from happening. /s
It's one of the big campaign promises of Bernie and the party shut him down twice. I wonder why.
This kind of is 🤣
would be cool if they locked him up there as well 😄
The move comes just days after House Republicans introduced a bill to rename Washington Dulles International Airport after the former president.
Ah, this is supremely petty from both sides. Utterly american this shit.
Like a TikTok fight between upper class white tween wannabe gangsters.
Trump should demand they rename DCA after him instead
It actually is the job of the House to submit names for federal buildings and such.
For everyone saying it's a waste of time by the Democrats, there's more serious work to do, etc, etc - until a Democrat becomes Speaker, Moscow Mike is going to continue to prevent any real work from getting done.
The House passes normally over 400 bills each year, post WW2. Last year, it was barely 30. Most of those were "culture war" bullshit symbolic bills.
As long as the Republican chucklefucks run the House, nothing serious will get done.
Because obstruction and stochastic terrorism is all they know how to do, there’s no plan for improving anything in citizens’ lives. We had the same problem during Obama’s administration, everyone with an R by their name gleefully announced they would block any and all progress just to spite the libs. We should be building more guillotines
Remember the Republican platform in the 2020 election. It was one page that said, "We oppose Obama." That was their entire platform.
They've definitely earned the victory lap, with justice having been so thoroughly served!
Oh wait, they're fucking morons. Do your jobs and leave this nonsense to Fox News.
There's the landfill dump site on the turnpike just south of Glades Rd. Lets get that named "The Trump Dump".
"The Trump Hotel"
Reminds me of The Samuel Alito's Mom's Satanic Abortion Clinic.
If a prison is named after a Trump, does it go bankrupt?
Only if it’s a for-profit prison and not a state/federal one.
I was making a joke about his track record
This is the hoity toity substance less bullshit that is disenfranchising liberals.
I see what they did there.
Conservatives, and Trump, LOVE the idea.
The troll doesn't work if the target wants the troll. And the move shows they are spending time resting on their laurels and being snarky instead of supporting their constituents.
A law reducing incarceration for petty crimes? No. Ensuring proper nutrition and Healthcare for the incarcerated? No. Putting another notch on Trumps belt to inflate Trumps ego, increase his visibility, and fire up his army of dolts? You betcha!
But it was totally meant to be ironic and won't totally backfire on them.

did you see the article about the lady that had fallen out of her prison rack bed (while sleeping,), broken her neck and they were like 'oh, naw. she faking' for three days while dragging her around and being like "why you no move?"
Troglodytes treat their prisoners better.
I saw that.
I have been inundated with TikToks as of late of Americans sharing their stories as Millenials suffering from life threatening conditions and/or crippling pain conditions and doctors saying "I don't believe you" when they really meant to say "you have no hope of ever affording that level of treatment".
No wonder both sides can unify on banning unfettered sharing of life experience, taking SuperPac donos in the process, instead of doing their jobs and giving us medicine and humane living conditions.
The for profit prison industry just ramps that shortfall up a millionfold.
But prisons have lobby firms to bribe politicians, and Healthcare "providers" have lobby firms to bribe politicians.
But hey, what can you do. Citizens United says "a dollar is a vote" and as long as that stands, no matter the ink mark we make on the ballot, none of them will overturn Citizens United.
Silent sit ins and peaceful inactive protest has a long history of having an impact against greed and vitriol of those who spew hate and inflict hate on those not represented by governing bodies.
TikToks
Ew.
Maybe he'll be staying there? They could call it "Mar-a-Uh-Ohh"?
I feel like he would love his name on a prison
Mar a Lagoon
I mean, I'm no fan of Trump, but it's not like John Foster Dulles was a saint.
Lmao truth, the Dulles brothers did more to fuck this world over than most.
