I stood at this pool, at both monuments and saw both reflectionsâŚ
Heâs a God damn idiot, as are the fools that support him. The âReflection Poolâ wasnât designed by American architect Henry Bacon a hundred years ago to look like a swimming pool. Itâs designed to have a darkened characteristics that has reflective qualities to reflect the monuments.
That way, the Washington Monument is reflective to you when at the Lincoln Memorial, and when at the Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial is reflective to you.
Itâs designed to enhance the grandeur of monuments, create an illusion of reflection, and inclusion of expansive space of unity.
Heâs a tacky vulgar person that vulgarizes everything he touches. America isnât becoming great, itâs becoming vulgar.

What will you do when you have taxed all the rich people and they have nothing.
They always demand.
What will we do when Energy, Food, Housing, Healthcare, Banking...
Is all cheap?
Because the only reason it is expensive is to pay them.
Had to work until she was 68, never saw a cent from her invention.
None of the billionaires are inventors they are all the crooks that stole from the inventors.
The first reporter who fires back at Trumpâs âYouâre a terrible reporterâ with âYouâre a terrible presidentâ deserves a Pulitzer on the spot.
Raise your hand if you agree â.
.@wesstreeting is wrong to say new North Sea drilling will not ânecessarilyâ mean cheaper energy bills - Itâs an un arguable fact that it wonât. It can't because global markets set the price of oil and gas, even when we produce it here. Wes offers equivocation where certainty exists - thatâs unhelpful, it could deceive people into thinking why not give it a go. On the question of more tax revenue from more drilling he offers certainty where equivocation is needed - itâs far from clearâŚ
Take Rosebank for example, it needs nearly ÂŁ3 billion of tax subsidies to get going and may never pay tax. Our North Sea is all but empty and politicians jumping on this bandwagon are doing the public no favours - Tony Blair included. This is a fossil fuel crisis, we won't solve it with more fossil fuels - we need 100% green energy ASAP and to âbreak the linkâ for real. The link that prices our own wind and sun according to the global price of gas - a ridiculous mechanism that strips enormous value for our economy and impoverishes millions of us.
Ed faked it, we need to actually break the link.
Nigel Farage hasn't bothered to vote in Parliament for the last 11 weeks.
During that time he will have collected about ÂŁ50,000 in wages and expenses.
But he will tell you Disabled People and immigrants are the problem.
No, it's rich lazy parasites like him.
Thereâs a reason The Conservative have made drilling the North Sea their No.1 topic, falsely claiming that 2% more Oil and Gas is some economic and social game changer for the UKâs problems.
Since privatisation, water companies sold off 25 reservoirs without building a single major one.
Now they want bill payers to fund a few new projects. Too little, too late.
Privatised greed is putting us at risk during a climate emergency. To build resilience, we need public ownership.
And yes. We want power.
For all of us.
Power for rent controls, for wealth taxes, for action on the climate.
Power for citizens assemblies and reinvigorating democracy.
Power to end Rip Off Britain - together.
BREAKING: @NYCMayor just announced COGE (Commission of Government Efficiency) and he takes a shot at Elon Musk in the process.
"COGE, COGE, yes. Now, Elon Musk manipulated the fact that so many people across this country want to see a government that is more efficient. He used that as a justification to simply slash and burn so much of the services that Americans rely on. What we are speaking about is a sincere fulfillment of a vision that ensures that city government is operating with the same level of focus that a working class New Yorker is when they're trying to balance their bills. And that means looking at the processes we have, that means looking at the procedures of city government, and that means looking at anything we can do to deliver a more efficient and more excellent government... It's just the name and what it should have been. I think government efficiency, these are words that somehow have been understood as if they are Republican priorities when in fact they are the priorities of anyone who believes in the public sector. And yet Elon Musk took that language and used it to cut as many jobs that were as critical as possible for so many of the neediest people across the country and across the world. Ours is going to be a focus on actually delivering efficiency, not as a byword for cutting services, but actually a sincere commitment to efficiency."
Britain has gotten poorer over the last decade. Brexit didn't work.
Disposable income has fallen more than in other European countries and certainly more than in the US.
They cut their nose off despite their economic face, a populist, nationalist, emotional decision, and now they're stuck because you can't get the same deal with the EU you once had.
People are done with both parties and they want to throw the bums out.
Now Farage is rising. I've met him and think heâs a con.
Go read his economic proposals â some of them are hate-based, some are tribally based.
Farage's broader economic proposals are populist noise that will make the country weaker and hurt the very people supporting him.
