How about Trump start delivering on his campaign promises. America sure doesn't feel great right about now. And maybe let's not let foreign bad actors influence us into starting unnecessary wars you don't have the stomach to finish. Eff the ball room.
Brian supported: WHCD Attack Makes It Clear: Support President Trump's Call For New East Wing BallroomNationals Park is lying to Media about the conditions and cooling options available for the Stray Kids Concert on June 23, 2025. They were not allowing any outside water bottles into the park-- factory sealed OR empty for refilling. There were also NO misting fans for those in the pits who were waiting since 10am in the 100°+ heat.
Additionally, it was the artists on stage who were checking in with the concert goers and asking for medical help repeatedly because no one was acting with any urgency. Eventually, the artists themselves decided to give the audience time to get water and cool down somewhere because dozens of people were collapsing and fainting or even having seizures.
This is when we discovered that the only water available was on the first level of the stadium or all the way out by the gate. The concessions on the other 3 levels were closed and no water was readily available. This is unacceptable and risky behavior considering that the venue KNEW about the dangerous heat levels a week in advance, as did the fans who were traveling in and doing everything they could to stay hydrated and prepared. Yet the venue, who knew how many tickets were sold, did nothing to make sure the people attending an event at their stadium were safe.
A lot of staff were rude and unprofessional and there are reports of people being laughed at by staff in the midst of their medical episode or flat out being ignored.
Another issue is that the price of water went from $6 a bottle up to $8+ a bottle depending on which water line you got in, when we were given a break by the band.
There was not a single moment throughout the experience at Nationals Park that I or any other concert goer that I have spoken with felt as though the staff or venue cared about the health and safety of those in their care.
It should not fall to the artist performing a show to advocate for basic human decency-- especially when you are a well known venue who took on this event.
So many people spent SO MUCH MONEY and time and suffered through the heat, sustained injuries etc. to be able to attend and enjoy this potentially once in a lifetime concert, yet because of the venues mismanagement and complete disregard to basic human needs and preparation for a heat wave they knew was coming-- 40,000+ people were left disappointment and some even in the hospital.
This behavior is NOT okay and lying to the media to cover your buttons is also unacceptable. I truly hope there are consequences for their dangerous behavior.
All of this is on top of the band members repeatedly asking for urgent help for the fans clearly having medical emergencies and no one acting with any kind of urgency. The band had to give out their own waters to try and keep fans safe.
Kylie supported: Partial Refunds for Stray Kids’ DC Concert on 6/23/25Not only the fires, mudslides, homeless, traffic, lack of infrastructure, but the entire legal system. Lost my beautiful 30 year old son in a DUI hit and run in Ventura, and the defendant served three months is a county jail. Similar stories abound. Newsom sets the tone and the tone is tone deaf.
Bella supported: Recall California Governor, Gavin Newsom9/11 will forever be etched in our minds and hearts. I almost lost my mom on that day. She was in the heart of the chaos. It was scary and I felt like I lost my breath knowing my mom was right there and witnessed the towers dropping. It was devastating. I'm lucky because she is here with me, but my heart breaks for all those who weren't so lucky. So many who did survive but died shortly after due to illnesses. My heart goes out to the survivors who are dealing with health and mental trauma from that awful day. My prayers for the families who will never forget their loved ones who are no longer here. Our flag is a symbol of freedom and it should be appropriately placed at WTC so future generations understand the life-changing impact 9/11 left on us all. It allowed us to unite, to help one another, and to remember what this country is built on...strength, resilience, and freedom for ALL people. I support this effort and would personally want to see this flag at WTC so I can show my mom that her and everyone affected by that day didn't happen in vain.
Dara supported: Install a Giant Permanent American Flagpole at Ground Zero - NYCThis is a monument of great significance. This needs to be a reminder to those who were not alive in 2001. For those of us who experienced that day, we can’t forget, for those who didn’t the story needs to be remembered.
