A note to my friends who still back Trump:
I am not here to dunk on you. I am writing because you have a working brain, and this story insults it.
The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool got a $14 million paint job. Shortly thereafter the water turned green and the new “American flag blue” coating started peeling off the bottom in sheets. Trump says vandals did it. He claims, without evidence, that someone took a knife and cut a 300-foot slit, a number that grew to 350 feet while he was still talking.
Back on May 4, Trump bragged about that same coating and said, if you had a knife, you could not even cut it, so strong, like powerful rubber. He cannot have it both ways.
And the green water?
A George Mason scientist tested it and found ordinary, non-toxic algae, the kind that blooms in any shallow sunny pool. To fight it, crews dumped hydrogen peroxide into the water.
Hydrogen peroxide is also a paint stripper.
That, not sabotage or vandalism, is the obvious reason the paint came off. They wrecked their own paint job, then blamed phantom vandals for it.
The lone "vandal" they paraded is a 67-year-old Olympian who touched a flap of paint already peeling on its own.
Here is the thing. If they will look you in the eye and lie about something this small, something you can see with your own eyes, ask yourself what else they are lying to you about.
Again, you have a working brain. People like Karoline Leavitt are counting on you to stay loyal instead of exercising independent thought.
Prove them wrong.
Folarin Balogun, USMNT striker and team leading goalscorer at the 2026 World Cup, when asked about his favorite player growing up:
“Alex Morgan. I model my game after her, she’s one of the greatest to ever put on the U.S. kit.”
"do you ever read anything serious?" GOOD GRIEF have you seen the state of the world right now??? lemme just enjoy my vampire romance nonsense in peace.
And another thing:
I don't give a single flying fuck if someone did or didn't pay for diapers. COPS SHOULD NOT BE SHOOTING AT PEOPLE OVER PETTY THEFT. EVER!
"OFFICER" HUNTER FOREST BELONGS IN PRISON.
copa masculina dá uma irritaçao pq eles roubam todas as glorias das mulheres o tempo inteiro
"o artilheiro das copas" não é, é a Marta
"o primeiro a competir 6 copas" não é, foi a Formiga (q inclusive jogou SETE)
"o primeiro a marcar em 5 edições" não é, foi a Marta tbm
The married at first sight season 18 episode 18 should be a FUCKING MOVIE. The drama, the editing, the music, the mystery, the cast, the lies, the paranoia, the investigation I WAS HOOKED START TO FINISH. Bravo. #netflix@MAFSLifetime
going to be that person because the ‘most fifa wc goals’ graphic is inaccurate & needs to be adjusted to say ‘men’s world cup’. if the graphic title were true, it’d include Marta who has scored 17 World Cup goals, more than any other player (men’s or women’s)
If you failed to get anything out of Cape Verde holding Spain to a 0-0 with a 40-year-old keeper having the game of his life against the odds, simply because it ended in a draw, I’m not sure sport in general is for you.
