We Will Bulldoze Trump’s "Rose Garden Club" and Restore It, Along With Everything Else He’s Broken DC floods the streets, Chicago holds the line, and Trump’s losing the narrative Scott Dworkin Sep 7 Before we start another week of the Trump regime’s chaos, I’m glad to have some great news for you today. I hope it gives you a break from the madness, even if only for a moment. Every day, The Dworkin Report takes a sledgehammer to Trump’s propaganda while mobilizing the resistance for the fight ahead. So if you believe in independent journalism that bites back, please join us as a paid subscriber: DC RESISTS There was a huge turnout for the “We Are All DC” march toward the White House yesterday, as folks demanded Trump withdraw the National Guard. Spanning several blocks, some estimated that tens of thousands were in attendance. CHICAGO RISES Massive crowds also showed up in Chicago to protest Trump and his unhinged threats against the city. IL Gov. JB Pritzker slammed Trump for posting a warning that Chicago is “about to find out why it’s called the Department of WAR,” along with the words: “Chipocalypse Now.” Pritzker said: “This is not a joke. This is not normal ... Trump isn’t a strongman, he’s a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.” PARTY SWITCH Oregon State Rep. Cyrus Javadi has pretty much been voting as a Democrat for a while now, but he’s finally made it official by leaving the GOP. Javadi stated: “I’ve had enough of politics as performance art. Enough of games designed to win elections instead of solve problems. Enough of leaders who’d rather go viral than go fix the roads.” I couldn’t agree more. MOMENTUM AGAINST BOB KENNEDY Members of Bob Kennedy’s family—including his sister Kerry and his nephew, former Rep. Joe Kennedy III—urged him to resign. Joe called him a “threat to the health and well-being of every American.” Even Trump’s former surgeon general Jerome Adams called on Kennedy to be fired. FOLLOW THE MONEY It was revealed that NBC is asking the courts to unseal names of two Epstein associates who received payments of $100,000 and $250,000. Of course, the DoJ is fighting hard to keep those names secret. I’ve covered Trump’s Epstein ties and pushed folks to follow the money trail since 2016. Hopefully, that thread is starting to unravel. There is more to come on this front. GROSS Trump launched “The Rose Garden Club” at the White House, and it’s one of the most grotesque things I’ve ever seen. CA Gov. Gavin Newsom’s press office had an appropriate response, slamming “Mike ‘Marie Antoinette’ Johnson,” saying he was glad Johnson had “time to toast the grand opening of the Predator Patio.” Ouch. One thing is clear—the next Democratic president must bulldoze this abomination. It’s just one of the countless things Trump has destroyed, which we’ll need to rebuild. I’ve run one of the largest social media operations against Trump for nearly a decade. Along with our reader-powered Contact Congress campaign, which has reached lawmakers more than 500,000 times since November. And we do it all while delivering our daily news briefs.

Oh for sure. And during the summer it gets so hot, no one is gonna wanna be out there John! I’m now calling it PREDATOR PATIO. Thanks Gov Newsom Trump thinks stealing the election means America was wrapped as a gift so he can play kick around and destroy. DC MARCH WAS SPECTACULAR. Rose Garden Club…hmmm…as ugly as the golden junk all over the white house…including the president! That gold is so tacky and tasteless  Predator Patio! Love it! Welcome Rep Javadi to the party of sanity and pro democracy ideals. Glad you joined us Rep Javadi. Does this mean we only need one more vote to get the Epstein files on the docket! No, he's a state rep in Oregon Scott, the only national news source I saw the protests covered in depth was on MSNBC. We also need to focus on the United States blowing up a boat in international waters! Who gave the POTUS to murder unknown people in our name? What nightmare are we living in with a demented psycho in the White House? We are looking into the boat attack as well! Thank you  The gauche gold gilt on the fireplace-we see the abomination when he hosts foreign leaders, and now this desecration of the rose garden. It should all be undone with press covering the restoration of the White House as a symbolic rejection of this awful man and his wretched base. The garden is as ugly as trumps presidency. Please give us the Rose Garden 🙏🤯 I joined thousands yesterday at the Free DC rally. It was a wonderful upbeat event! Wish I was there with you. Spectacular show of patriotism. What do you think about Trump’s “Rose Garden Club?” The Mrs. ruined the Garden when 🍊 was 45: She cursed those who were aggrieved when she took out generations of roses planted by more elegant and humane former First Ladies. Everything 🍊 plans at the White House shows he thinks of himself as a permanent resident there, and he can do what he wants, when he wants, on taxpayer's money, and let the poor be sick and starve, while he emboldens his coffers instead of helping them with Medicaid. This is the most eye popping thing I’ve read in awhile and that says a lot!Trump laundered Russian mob money? And made a $50 million profit? When Epstein wanted the property? Say it isn’t so. Of course trump turned Epstein in to the FBI with his insider information. This now finally makes perfect sense. Trump has always sought revenge on his enemies and his huge money earning never did make sense either. He may now try to claim hero status as he saved all the future young women from harm by turning in his frienemy who knew of his Russian ties and profit. And who did Epstein really call the day he died in a Trump administration prison? Or what did he say that was overheard? Does he seem like a guy who would kill himself after negotiating a fairly light sentence? Or was he also a malignant narcissist who was not inclined to harm himself on purpose? Maybe this ghost will haunt our collective dream and more of us will wake up. And turn our situation around with more truths seaping into public view. Dyno-might! This reminds me of how one drop of MTBE ruins the whole pond. This one drop of truth will poison the pool of public opinion. I pray! Mark my words…when we finally get a normal President and that President restores the gardens to their original glory, Fox News and all Republicans will be screaming that the Dems are throwing money away and stealing from the American people! Watch this space. The obnoxious and tawdry Rose Garden Club is so on brand for t-rump, isn't it? He makes it a "club," meaning that only some belong there. This is not t-rump's private property, yet if course he is acting as if it is. You are so right, Scott-- in the great bye-and-bye (as they used to say), we must undo, untaint, renew and reclaim this and so much more.
