Govt Attorney: "Respectfully, I don't think you need to find a study. You should just defer to the military opinion."

Oh she's so done. So, so done with this guy.

Final decision on restoring the Palace of Westminster will be delayed until 2030s

Final decision on fate of crumbling UK parliament delayed to 2030s
It’s a fire-hazard that’s prone to tumbling masonry — but fear of a public backlash is again delaying repairs to the world famous building.

i am finishing up the book REGIME CHANGE and the only real takeaway from it should be that the president is legitimately delusional and that the entire White House is structured to feed and defer to his delusions
It's a scandal that the president of the United States is out of his damn mind.
It's also a scandal that major news media aren't telling you that, loudly and often.

When the topic turns to "what comes next" and "what should we do," we should defer to historians in the same way we defer to doctors on vaccines, lawyers on criminal defense and military generals on strategy and tactics.

Gonna spend the next two years spamming every elected Dem about the concept of "damnatio memoriae." Chisel his name off every inscription. Build over the various Trump Towers like they're Nero's Golden House. Remove him from physical memory, not to forget but as a sign of disrespect to the man.
The seven-member body, whose ranks are composed of Trump appointees, was expected to approve the arch. The proposed monument strongly resembles Paris' Arc de Triomphe, but almost 100 feet taller. n.pr/3O5czfK

SCOTUS: would it just be simpler if we just decided that “Chevron deference” means that we defer to Chevron
The demise of Chevron is being widely interpreted as an expansion of judicial power. It is that, but it also and more profoundly an expansion of power of moneyed interests.
