The saga continues:

https://rollcall.com/2024/06/03/jord...r-trump-cases/

Quote:
House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan on Monday recommended using the congressional appropriations process to curtail prosecutions against former President Donald Trump.

...

Jordan also recommended the appropriations committee include language that would “eliminate any funding for the FBI that is not essential for the agency to execute its mission, including rescinding prior appropriations and prohibiting new taxpayer funding for any new FBI headquarters facility.”

One proposed policy rider would prohibit funds in the Financial Services and General Government funding bill from being used to build a new FBI headquarters in Greenbelt, Md.

Earlier this year, Congress passed a fiscal 2024 funding package that included $200 million toward a project to build a new FBI headquarters. Another rider proposed Monday would rescind that $200 million.

That Tokyo pic is so ugly I've just now developed an appreciation for dilapidated brutalism.

If you've ever looked at an Asian website they tend to be very busy compared to western ones. Seems Asians like their environments busy busy.
