42. You are correct.

Thursday

I am saying exactly that.

The OP said we should call our representatives and ask what's being done about the asbestos being spread around the White House and surrounding area. Well, so far, we have absolutely no evidence that there is asbestos being spread around.

The logical path would be to find out if permits were issued, if inspections were done, and if asbestos was found, etc. and then go from there.

It's like accusing D.R. Horton of building a home on top of a sink hole with no evidence that a sink hole even exists.
