About that wall...

Hours earlier, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said that a short-term spending bill to reopen government “would only work if there is a large down payment on the wall.”

Neither Sanders nor the president offered any details about  how much money constituted a “large down payment.” In December, Trump scuttled a continuing resolution to fund the federal government through February because it didn’t have an appropriation for the wall.

When asked by reporters about Trump’s proposal for a large “prorated down payment,” Pelosi responded, “That is not a reasonable agreement.”

Trump also told White House reporters he would support a “reasonable agreement” between McConnell and Schumer, but was mum on specifics.

“If they come to a reasonable agreement, I would support it, yes,” Trump said.

Pelosi, however, made clear that she wasn’t interested in giving the president more money for a wall.

“The president just said that if they come to a reasonable agreement he would support it. I hope that that doesn’t mean some big down payment for the wall,” Pelosi said. Asked by reporters if she knew what Trump meant by a “large prorated down payment,” she said she didn’t. “I don’t know if he knows what he’s talking about,” she said. “Do you?”

What A Drag “Several years ago, I began showing my photos of New York’s drag scene of the 1980s and ‘90s in a narrated slideshow, which is also titled ‘The Drag Explosion'. I’ve presented mostly in New York, but also in Los Angeles, San Francisco and Copenhagen. It’s generated a lot of positive feedback and I thought it would work as a book. But it wasn’t until earlier this year when art director David Knowles, who I had worked with a little before, approached me about putting out a book through his new publishing company ‘Domain Books’. We both put in a lot of work, including me writing the text, and I’m really happy with how it turned out.” - Linda Simpson. New York’s momentous drag scene of the 1980s and ‘90s reigns again in this volume of photos by Linda Simpson, who spent the era in the middle of the action taking just-for-fun snapshots. The vivid images capture wild nightlife, queer activism, pop culture moments, and colourful characters galore as they joyfully pushed the boundaries of gender expression, including Lady Bunny, RuPaul, Lypsinka and Leigh Bowery. The Drag Explosion is a tribute to a golden age, when drag transformed from an underground art form into a mainstream sensation, and paved the path for today’s drag renaissance. ‘The Drag Explosion’ Author, Linda Simpson, Published by ‘Domain’. #neonurchin #neonurchinblog #dedicatedtothethingswelove #suzyurchin #ollyurchin #art #music #photography #fashion #film #words #pictures #neon #urchin #wigstockthemovie #dragtime #parisisburning #channel69 #pyramidclub #mycommrade #magazine #dragscene #drag #davidknowles #domain #photographer #lindasimpson #thedragexplosion (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPXv7T-FOoi/?utm_medium=tumblr
