So, people have been asking me my thoughts on Trump’s mishandling of the Lincoln Memorial Reflection Pool.
My response.
Why isn’t Trump in prison for sexually assaulting children on Epstein’s perverted island?
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.
If Joe Biden said he didn't know what he was signing in the Oval Office I think every right wing pundit would have botox melting off their face from the rage
This photo was published of the Prime Minister of Qatar, Vice President JD Vance and Jared Kushner. What’s the problem? Giving a foreign leader visual access to a USG laptop, while using someone else’s CAC to log in. Pure incompetence at every turn.
JD Vance one year ago today:
“I empathize with Americans who are exhausted after 25 years of foreign entanglements in the Middle East. I understand the concern, but the difference is that back then we had dumb presidents"
The Olympian that touched the reflecting pool water was held for 5 hours & never read his Miranda rights.
This is what the "Don't tread on me" Republicans have turned America into.
There is a 24/7 camera that shows the reflecting pool. If someone went into the pool and made a 250 foot gash, it would have been seen.
trump is lying again. Everyone knows it, but the people at @TheJusticeDept are randomly going after people to soothe trump’s fragile ego.
The World Cup tourists discovering how cool America is aren’t discovering the town you live in, MAGA, they’re discovering the big liberal cities that you hate and that hate you back. 😁
Yesterday the Hardrock casino in Fort Lauderdale Florida draped itself in the Juneteenth flag. For those who aren’t aware the hardrock is owned by Seminole Indians.
