I guess we could have bids put out to convert it into a Coliseum-like thingy.. just import some TEA Party Patriots and BLM gladiators and let’em battle it out.
Not sure how the stinky tourists would feeeel about it buuuuutttt,, Harry Reid would be OK as long as his family gets a piece of the action.
Bring in the Mexicans , and they can do it for $15 million

When the rest of us have to repair something, something else is cut to provide the budget. About time the Congress quit running wild with the checkbook.
Sorry about that funding, now if it was for muslin outreach or weapons for terrorists....................
“Acid rain”!?! The `70s called. They want their phony trumped up environmental crisis back!
“$60 million is chump change”
The imposter and his brood of grifters probably cost us that much before noon each day.
GOOD I HOPE THE WHOE DAMNED THING FALLS IN ON THEM!!!
No kidding! Their vacation budget would have done the job a few times over.
The leading candidates for a possible congressional relocation are Charlotte and Memphis, both of which have long sought a major organization to raise their national profile. San Francisco civic leaders have also lobbied hard, offering to finance a $4 billion Pac Bell Capitol Building using a combination of private corporate funds (40 percent), a county sales tax (35 percent), and a local cigarette tax (25 percent). Dallas, Seattle, and Toronto have also been mentioned as long shots.Demonstrating its commitment to "stay in Washington if at all possible," Congress has invited more than a dozen architectural firms to submit proposals for a new D.C. capitol. Among the early favorites is the ambitiously titled "Halls Of Power," a retro-futuristic design by the Kansas City architectural firm of Hellmuth, Obata, and Kassabaum. The Halls Of Power would feature a retractable rotunda for daytime sessions, a Dancing Waters fountain in the front courtyard, and 55 more luxury boxes than the current building.

King Fubo won’t be happy until they turn it into a mosque.
We’re going to lose it?
A little surgery is needed to save Isis’ or some other goddess’ womb...and they will spare no expense.
Let it crumble.. and take the phallus, er, washington monument, of Osiris or whatever other sun gods man parts it’s supposed to represent with it..

Let me make a prediction. Congress will pass a bill that appropriates money
to fix the Capital dome.
However, within that bill, pork will stuffed in for Senators in many states
that have nothing to do with fixing the dome.
A visual representation in the physical world of the true spirit of our Washington government.
Don’t a number of state capitols have domes? They seem to be able to maintain their facilities okay.
The one outside the White House? Yeah not a lot there. We hit all the monuments except Jefferson and FDR. Loved Vietnam and MLK. Although Lincoln is my favorite. As a family we took turns reading lines from the Gettysburg Address. Great moment.
I hate the guy in the Whitehouse ( last time I was in DC was under Carter) but the city and the history is great. Everyone should go.
I am positive-mental-imaging a Debt of Honor scenario.
