During Memorial Day weekend at Dulles International Airport, U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers seized nearly $100,000 in unreported cash from two separate groups of travelers.

In the grand scheme of things, does naming an airport after a soon-to-be convicted felon and widely regarded as the worst president in our nation’s history seem like a worthwhile endeavor? Rep. Gerry Connolly’s suggestion to name a federal prison after Trump seems far more fitting given the looming legal troubles he faces.
The airport currently bears the name of John Foster Dulles, a figure who played a significant role in American history during the Cold War era.… Continue reading
Naming an airport after Donald Trump? Seriously? The mere thought of it is enough to make my skin crawl. I mean, let’s be real here – the man is a walking disaster, a disgrace to the office of the President, and an all-around despicable human being.
