The attorneys for three-time U.S. Olympian David Hearn have issued a powerful statement after D.C. attorney Jeanine Pirro announced a felony charge against Hearn for touching the Reflecting Pool water, in an attempt to blame others for Trump's failures.

"Davey Hearn is innocent. These charges are outrageous and should be alarming to every American. This indictment reflects the Administration's effort to shift blame for their own failures. On the eve of our nation's Independence Day, Americans should be deeply concerned by the misuse of government power against an ordinary citizen based on a concocted narrative. The justice system exists to determine facts, not to provide political cover." - Norm Eisen, Democracy Defenders Fund & Mary Dohrmann, Washington Litigation Group

Congratulations you incompetent old fart!

DONALD TRUMP IS WEAK ON ALGAE. THANKS TO ME, CALIFORNIA HAS BEEN ALGAE-FREE FOR 2000 YEARS. PEOPLE CALL ME CRYING, "THANK YOU FOR WINNING THE WAR ON ALGAE!" MANY SAY TRUMP FEARS ALGAE BECAUSE IT SOUNDS LIKE ALGEBRA. HE HAS SURRENDERED AND WILL TURN US INTO UNITED STATES OF ALGAE!

Hydrogen peroxide alone does not dissolve or strip a polyurea or polyurethane coating, which is what was just added to the Reflecting Pool. However, applying industrial-strength peroxide can degrade the polymer structure, leading to swelling, discoloration, or delamination if the coating was improperly applied. So it's safe to assume the coating was not applied correctly to begin with. The substrate must be completely cleaned, dried, and properly primed before applying polyurea/polyurethane.

The damage is not the work of left-wing vandals. The damage was caused by the people who were paid $15 million for a job they are not qualified to do. This is a mixture of incompetence and ignorance. But hey, the pool guy was a Trump donor, so he got the no-bid government contract based on his donations, not his skill or knowledge.

Scientists in Atlanta were stopped from criticizing the Trump admin at a scientific conference, so let me do it here:

Trump is destroying biomedical research in America, and it will take decades to get back on track. 

Spread the word. Stand up for science.

Proud of her for speaking up against Trump and the hate he spreads. 💙
Would you still support Taylor Swift even though she is against Trump?

A disgrace.

[Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein]

This is not a joke.

This is actually the reflecting Pool in Washington DC today.

Donald Trump wasted $10 million of our money on this.

No wonder why he bankrupted multiple casinos.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

I thank all our people who are fighting for Ukraine, working for our state, and helping defend our national interests. And I thank all our partners in the EU and every leader personally for this strong step for the sake of Europe. Ukraine is defending itself and, in doing so, all of Europe – the idea that European nations can live united, free, and in peace.

As we have said, Ukraine is doing what is necessary, and it is important that the EU is also keeping its word. The opening of the first cluster is significant political and moral support for our state and our people.

We also thank Europe for all its other support – support that shows true leadership and helps us protect lives. Everything has also been done to open the next clusters. We also congratulate Moldova on this step, which we are taking together.

NB8 (Nordic-Baltic countries) is emerging as a new powerhouse within the Western allied space. The meeting of heads of government held today in Tallinn marked a new chapter in the cooperation of eight like-minded and strong democracies. An integral part of this is the defence of Ukraine’s sovereignty. The presence of the President of Ukraine at the meeting was highly significant. 🇪🇪🇱🇻🇱🇹🇫🇮🇳🇴🇮🇸🇸🇪🇩🇰🇺🇦

Trump threatened to have me hanged over a 90-second video I made. I'm a sitting United States Senator and spent decades serving this country, and it didn't matter. Keeping your head down will not keep you safe. Staying quiet will not keep you safe.

President Putin, the path to peace is clear. End this war. Withdraw Russian forces from Ukraine. Respect Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity. Uphold international law.

I delivered the Nordic Statement on Ukraine at the #UNSC.

Zelensky was told that the Kremlin thought his open letter was “rude”.

His response: “they should’ve seen the first version “

[Meanwhile in Ukraine @MeanwhileInUA]

Ukraine isn't testing the SKYNEX air defense system anymore. It's using it - and the results are rewriting Europe's defense orders.

All four SKYNEX systems pledged by Germany have been delivered and are operational. Developed by Rheinmetall, each unit combines a 35mm automated anti-aircraft cannon with radar-guided targeting and a networked battle management system - designed specifically to intercept Shahed-type drones before they reach their targets.

Ukraine's Air Force called the results "impeccable." Rheinmetall is now planning to scale production to 400 systems per year by 2027 - a decision driven directly by what Ukraine proved in combat.

The drone war created the demand. Ukraine created the proof of concept.
