Holy shit!! There are huge chunks of blue paint coming off the reflecting pool already…
It seems the peroxide loosened things up, yikes!!

THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IS A COMPLETE AND TOTAL FAILURE.

The Trump administration is pulling a working $368 million ocean monitoring system out of the water.

Equipment taxpayers already bought and paid for, removed right as record temperatures and a possible collapse of Atlantic currents have scientists alarmed. There is no savings analysis. The gear is already paid for. And the same people killing the monitors want to mine the deep sea, destroying the only tools that could measure the damage.

They are smashing the gauges while the engine is on fire. You cannot see the damage if you break the instruments first.

When the reflecting pool becomes a metaphor for everything wrong with the Trump administration.

People ask how will we pay for childcare & healthcare?

We are producing more wealth than ever before. Take it from the guy who represents all that wealth.

If I can stand up to the billionaires & trillionaires to pay for childcare & education, why can’t 434 other house members?

JFK gave best speech of his life, this week 1963, at American University:
“If we cannot now end our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity. . . .We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children's future. And we are all mortal."

Musk is the leading example of an illegal immigrant living off public welfare in human history and the man spends every day pretending the real problem is a woman cleaning motel rooms in West Murfreesboro

Our species has let this evil man prosper and we will pay the price for it

BREAKING: This Is A Pretty Stunning Claim.

Marjorie Taylor Greene says Donald Trump once told her that some of his friends would be hurt if the Epstein files were fully released.

Greene pointed to new reporting alleging that the biggest obstacle to broader disclosure was not the Justice Department.

Not the FBI. But Trump himself.

Think about the significance.

For years, the debate centered on what was in the files.

Now the debate is shifting toward who wanted them released and who didn't.

The controversy is no longer just about Jeffrey Epstein.

It's becoming a fight over the handling of the information itself.

The DOJ is keeping the part of Trump's IRS settlement in place that shields Trump, his family and his businesses from IRS audits

This is outrageously corrupt. Don't let it fly under the radar.

CREW President Donald Sherman breaks it down.

The Strait was already opened for free before he got 13 American troops killed and paid Iran $ 25 billion (that we know of).

Looks as if someone is sensitive about the fact that the new Iran deal isn't as good as JCPOA (or as good as what was offered by Iran in January, before we spent tens of billions of dollars to create a global mess).

HEGSETH: “The document says Iran will never have a nuclear weapon.”

BRENNAN: “(Obama’s Iran Deal) said that too.” 🎯
