Video of Trump
Dangerous Liberty has the video of Trump's Senate testimony (thanks for the trackback!). It is substantially longer than the audio and contains this tidbit at 27:53 in the video: out of a proposed budget of 1.2 billion dollars, an additional 471 million dollars is set aside for "contingency and professional fees"!
You heard right. The UN is expecting a 40% cost overrun with no plans, specifications, or budget in place on a project that shouldn't cost more than 700 million dollars according to the Donald. Listen to the whole thing; if it wasn't so infuriating, it would be hilarious.
