Holy CRAP.

Trump ORDERS the United States Postal Service to NOT deliver ballots to any state that is hiding it's voter rolls.

The USPS is a federal agency under Trump’s control.

Very smart!

Washington, DC Has Never Looked Better: The Iconic Dupont Circle Fountain Flows Again in a Safer, More Beautiful Capital

Dupont Circle Fountain Returns to Life: Experience the Beauty, Safety, and Charm of Washington’s Diplomatic Heart

The iconic Dupont Circle Fountain is flowing once again, bringing renewed beauty and energy to one of Washington, DC’s most beloved public spaces. Located in the heart of the city’s diplomatic district, Dupont Circle has long served as a gathering place for residents, visitors, students, diplomats, and families from around the world.

Today, the restored fountain stands as a symbol of a cleaner, safer, and more vibrant capital city. By day, its cascading water creates a peaceful urban oasis. By night, the illuminated circle offers a welcoming atmosphere where young people, families, and visitors can enjoy one of Washington’s most iconic landmarks with comfort and confidence.

What makes this fountain even more special is its remarkable artistic legacy. The memorial fountain was designed by architect Henry Bacon and sculptor Daniel Chester French—the same legendary team behind the Lincoln Memorial and the iconic statue of Abraham Lincoln. Their masterpiece at Dupont Circle features elegant allegorical figures representing The Sea, The Wind, and The Stars, celebrating the life and service of Rear Admiral Samuel Francis Du Pont.

Surrounded by historic mansions, embassies, cafés, and cultural institutions, Dupont Circle remains one of the most dynamic and beautiful destinations in the nation's capital. The return of the fountain is another reminder that Washington, DC continues to shine as one of America's most elegant and inspiring cities.

💦 Fun Fact: The marble carvings on the fountain were executed by the Piccirilli Brothers, the same master artisans who carved the famous seated Abraham Lincoln statue inside the Lincoln Memorial.

Karmelo didn't cry when the jury heard the 911 call after Austin Metcalf was stabbed.

He didn't cry when Austin's twin brother, Hunter, could be heard screaming in anguish and praying his brother wouldn't die.

He didn't cry when the jury was shown Austin's autopsy photos.

He didn't cry when they saw the blood-soaked shirt used in a desperate attempt to save Austin's life.

But he cried when he was found guilty.

And he cried again when he was sentenced to 35 years.

The only tears the jury saw were for his own fate, not for the life that was taken.

Austin Metcalf was robbed of his high school graduation, he will never get another birthday, another chance to live the life that was stolen from him.

Thirty-five years may be justice under the law, but for many, it doesn't feel like enough.

Sometimes it’s the simple things.

The @NatlParkService has replaced 10,000 feet of wood slats and restored more than 1,000 benches as part of the larger effort to Make D.C. Beautiful Again.

Before and after: decline is a choice! 🇺🇸

[Remoulade Sauce @Remisagoodboy]

This is literally the cutest thing that I have seen today!!

Vice President JD Vance and Second Lady Usha Vance, were photographed with one of their new chicks and at the brand new Chicken Coop at the Vice President’s Residence. 🇺🇸

Mrs. Vance is wearing maternity overalls by Hatch. 🐣🩷🐣

The only thing that stops violent monsters raping our women are more violent men unwilling to accept such a reality.

To complete President Trump's "Triumphal Arch" by the time he leaves office, the National Park Service plans to have construction take place 20 hours per day over the next two to three years, according to planning documents. https://t.co/HxOrxLmhzP

Way to go, Vance family!

We love our Carolina coop! It’s taught our kids responsibility and the importance of being close to your food source. My eggs taste better than factory farm eggs! @CarolinaCoops @rcamposduffy

@Interior @NatlParkService I think this is so wonderful!!! ❤️

[Éire Álainn @Eirealainn2024]

I started work at 5.30 am this morning and I'm home since 9pm

I'm fucking shattered

I'm not young anymore

I'm now having a drink to try and unwind before I get up and do it all again tomorrow

Why doesn't this pay off ?

Why can't this pay off for my children ?

Why are my taxes going towards making the lives of men who have no connection to me,my family or my land more comfortable and better ?

I hate the left
I hate self loathing Irish people with no pride
I hate corrupted appeasing NGOs
I hate Irish politicians
I hate what my country has become

I love Ireland
I love Irish people
God bless
🇮🇪🇮🇪

Was Stephen King body snatched?

[US Department of the Interior @Interior]

You could say they nailed it. (And also sanded it, painted it, and rebuilt it.)

@NatlParkService staff from across the country are working hard to make DC safe and beautiful, installing and repairing more than 1,000 benches this year.

Their work may happen behind the scenes, but the results are on display every day in the shared spaces that help to tell our nation’s story. 🇺🇸

The best discovery of our road trip has been a musician called Ella Langley. We had never heard of her before, but after hearing her on pretty much every country radio station, we’ve become big fans. She’s basically the soundtrack of our trip.

Update on Stephen Ogilvie.

Please say Prayers for Stephen and his Family at this time ❤️🙏🏻

[Basil the Great @BasilTheGreat]

This is heartbreaking 😔
All this poor man has ever known is suffering

Stephen Ogilvie, the special needs man who was attacked in Belfast a few nights ago suffered an attack years earlier.

Mr Ogilvie, 44, moved from Belfast to Scotland to live with a man who offered him to flat share in 2001, but the man who was also a drug dealer, tried to kill Stephen.

The man gave Stephen the date rape drug GBH then stripped him, poured aftershave over him and torched him alive.

Vulnerable Mr Ogilivie, who is understood to have learning difficulties, later woke up to find his body on fire.

The sickening ordeal was captured on video by his torturer. He then fled back to Belfast.

The man responsible was jailed for 14 years at the High Court in Edinburgh in April 2003

Fcking hell.
Poor bloke.
