You know what is probably a spot that will see a lot more traffic…the overpass on 66
Plus you could bring a chair an just attach the sign to the fence
I'm putting the Pro back in protest
edit…I guess this is a part of a bigger Arlington protest

I live near the Surrender Dorothy bridge. Lots of people on the bridge and honking cars on the beltway.

Your partner seems like a pussy.
And btw tell her to read up on autism and stop bandying the word like an insult when referring to you. It’s pretty pathetic and offensive actually. Tell her to call you a retard.

Not remotely true. I believe things can 100% get better right now. I don't even think it's that hard! And it doesn't even take much to get my vote!

Saw many out today for No Kings
None on the bridge I suggested, but many on other overpasses along 66 and 50 as
a fairly big gathering in McLean at old d

The parade featured soldiers marching with Fortune Son playing in the background

I’m sure it’s only a matter of time for this
It was the biggest most successful military parade in the history of this great country, I’ve never seen anything like it. Even Sleepy Joe Biden the worst president in the history and his paid agitators couldn’t dampen the enthusiasm felt across this great country which is getting greater every day. Thank you to the attention to this matter. MAGA

WTAF??
Trump Organization announces mobile plan, $499 smartphone
it will sell a “T1” smartphone, which appears to feature a gold-colored metal case etched with an American flag.

oh supposedly 100% manufactured in the US (for $499 retail…I doubt it)
interesting with all the tariffs on phones, this one will surely be exempt
a good response from AI
In Summary
The Emoluments Clauses are theoretically powerful tools for ensuring public officials don’t profit improperly. But in practice, they’ve proven difficult to enforce, largely due to legal gray areas, procedural hurdles, and political constraints. Trump’s presidency exposed how underdeveloped and untested these constitutional safeguards really are.
