A fountain sat dry and broken for 19 years.

And nobody is talking about what it actually took to fix it.

🚨 🚨 🚨 THE COLUMBUS CIRCLE FOUNTAIN JUST REOPENED AFTER 19 YEARS — AND THE REACTION IS BREAKING THE INTERNET 🚨 🚨 🚨

Built in 1912. Dry since 2007. Nineteen years of cracked marble, dead plumbing, and managed decline in the capital of the most powerful nation on Earth.

Trump signed an executive order. Called it "Making the District of Columbia Safe and Beautiful." Interior Secretary Doug Burgum and Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy showed up for the ribbon-cutting on May 28, 2026.

And a woman from the area walked up and lost her mind.

THE FOUNTAIN:
→ Christopher Columbus Memorial — built 1912, a national landmark
→ Dry since 2007 — 19 consecutive years of zero water flow
→ Marble so degraded locals had stopped noticing it was even there
→ Plumbing completely rebuilt from scratch
→ Stonework and white marble fully restored
→ New paving, landscaping, and security improvements added
→ Water now runs so blue it reflects off the marble like glass
→ Total project cost: nearly $12 million

THE REACTION:
→ "This is CRAZY. I'm from this area. NEVER seen it like this."
→ "It's so blue, it is bouncing off the white marble."
→ "I've NEVER seen the marble this CLEAN before."

THE MATH:
→ 19 years × 12 months = 228 months of bipartisan neglect
→ Multiple Republican AND Democrat administrations walked past this
→ $12 million to restore a 114-year-old national landmark
→ Funded entirely through National Park Service recreation fees — zero new appropriations

Read that again.

💀 The fountain was dry for the entire Obama administration
💀 The fountain was dry for Trump's first term
💀 The fountain was dry for the entire Biden administration
💀 It took a second term and an executive order to turn the water back on

⚠️ This is now part of preparations for America's 250th anniversary
⚠️ The 2026 FIFA World Cup is coming to DC — the world is about to see this
⚠️ The same "Make DC Safe and Beautiful" order is tied to broader restoration across the capital

They're showing you a fountain.

They're NOT showing you what 19 years of "deferred maintenance" actually means — a deliberate choice by every administration that came before to let a 1912 national landmark rot in the middle of the nation's capital while billions flowed to other priorities.

You don't let a fountain sit dry for 19 years by accident. You let it happen because nobody decided it mattered enough to fix.

Until someone did.

Process that.

Most people won't see this. RT to change that. 🔥

I'll keep you updated. Turn on notifications. 🚨

E. Jean Carroll has accused 7 men in the past of sexually assaulting or raping her.
Not one police report exists of any of these incidents.
George Conway and Reid Hoffman found a habitual liar to attack Trump.

🚨JAMES TALARICO — THE DERANGED TEXAS LEFTIST FREAK — SPENT THREE FULL YEARS IN SCHOOL PRETENDING TO BE A GIRL NAMED “JEANNINE” BEFORE TRYING TO SUE THE SCHOOL TO SEAL THE RECORDS!

Follow @RedLivesMatterQ

From 6th through 9th grade, this vegan gender weirdo went full “Jeannine” Talarico mode at a small K-12 outside Austin. Multiple verified classmates just dropped the receipts.

When the truth started leaking out, the little cross-dressing bitch tried to legally bury it like the pathetic fraud he is.

This is the same radical soy boy now pushing every insane gender ideology on kids while hiding his own twisted past.

No wonder he’s such a deranged Democrat — the guy’s entire personality is built on mental illness and deception.

The Democrats really scraped the bottom of the barrel with this one.

Share this everywhere and expose every last gender-weirdo fraud in office!

The 13th amendment (abolished slavery) was passed with 100% of Republican support

77% of Democrats voted against it!

The 14th amendment (gave blacks citizenship) was passed with 94% of Republican support

100% of Democrats voted against it!

The 15th amendment (gave slaves the right to vote) was passed with 100% of Republican support

100% of Democrats voted against it!!

This is good info to have the next time you vote...

And this is:

George Hill, an FBI agent and whistleblower who worked at the FBI Washington, D.C., field office:

— He testified under oath that the FBI would not allow over 11,000 hours of J6 footage to be released because it would expose undercover agents and confidential human sources committing crimes inside the Capitol.

— Additionally, over 5,000 FBI agents were forced to fabricate charges against American citizens.

— And virtually every single FBI whistleblower who came forward was retaliated against.

🚨E Jean Carroll caught in deposition claiming she “totally forgot” billionaire Reid Hoffman was funding her entire lawsuit against Trump.

Just completely slipped her mind who was bankrolling the whole operation.

This entire case was a coordinated hoax from day one.

[Art @ZarkFiles]

The E. Jean Carroll case against President Trump is one of the strangest civil cases in American history. The foundational problem is this: Carroll could not identify when the alleged incident occurred — not even the year with any precision.
That should have killed the case as dead as a skunk on the road right there.
Without a temporal anchor, no defendant — regardless of guilt or innocence — can mount an alibi defense. Trump, who has maintained detailed calendars and staff records for decades, was denied the most basic tool of self-defense: the ability to establish where he was. That is not a technicality. It is a due process violation at the constitutional level.
Then Carroll produced the one piece of physical evidence she claimed corroborated her account — the dress she wore during the alleged incident. It was subsequently established that the dress was designed after the incident could have occurred. The sole corroborating evidence falsified her timeline.
The case proceeded anyway.
The resulting verdict was then weaponized in a defamation suit — where Trump was held liable for denying the allegation, while being procedurally barred from defending against it, because it was already "proven" in another court, regardless how flawed the procedure was. He was punished, in effect, for asserting his own innocence.
Compounding everything: coordinated professional and physical threats so thoroughly intimidated the legal community that attorneys refused these cases regardless of available fees. When you systematically destroy a defendant's ability to retain counsel of choice, you forfeit the right to a legitimate verdict.
An allegation is not evidence. Process without substance is not law. And a verdict produced under these conditions carries no legitimate authority — whatever its formal status.

Not only is it the right move to investigate Carroll, but every other person involved as well. Trump is owed serious damages here, and there may be a few people who belong in prison for their roles in the case.

Barbara Walters writes:
Unfortunately, many have forgotten and still countless others have never known how Ms. Fonda betrayed not only the idea of our country, but specific men who served and sacrificed during the Vietnam War.
The first part of this is from an F-4E pilot. The pilot's name is Jerry Driscoll, a River Rat. In 1968, the former Commandant of the USAF Survival School was a POW in Ho LoPrison, the "Hanoi Hilton."
Dragged from a stinking cesspit of a cell, cleaned, fed, and dressed in clean PJ's, he was ordered to describe for a visiting American "peace activist" the "lenient and humane treatment" he'd received.
He spat at Ms. Fonda, was clubbed, and was dragged away. During the subsequent beating, he fell forward onto the camp commandant 's feet, which sent that officer berserk.
In 1978, the Air Force Colonel still suffered from double vision (which permanently ended his flying career) from the Commandant's frenzied application of a wooden baton.
From 1963-65, Col. Larry Carrigan was in the 47FW/DO (F-4E's). He spent 6 years in the "Hanoi Hilton". . . The first three of which his family only knew he was "missing in action." His wife lived on faith that he was still alive. His group, too, got the cleaned-up, fed and clothed routine in preparation for a "peace delegation" visit.
They, however, had time and devised a plan to get word to the world that they were alive and still survived. Each man secreted a tiny piece of paper, with his Social Security Number on it, in the palm of his hand. When paraded before Ms. Fonda and a cameraman, she walked the line, shaking each man's hand and asking little encouraging snippets like: "Aren't you sorry you bombed babies?" and "Are you grateful for the humane treatment from your benevolent captors?" Believing this HAD to be an act, they each palmed her their sliver of paper.
She took them all without missing a beat. . . At the end of the line and once the camera stopped rolling, to the shocked disbelief of the POWs, she turned to the officer in charge and handed him all the little pieces of paper...
Three men died from the subsequent beatings. Colonel Carrigan was almost number four but he survived, which is the only reason we know of her actions that day.
I was a civilian economic development adviser in Vietnam, and was captured by the North Vietnamese communists in South Vietnam in 1968, and held prisoner for over 5 years.
I spent 27 months in solitary confinement; one year in a cage in Cambodia; and one year in a 'black box' in Hanoi. My North Vietnamese captors deliberately poisoned and murdered a female missionary, a nurse in a leprosarium in Banme Thuot, South Vietnam, whom I buried in the jungle near the Cambodian border. At one time, I weighed only about 90 lbs. (My normal weight is 170 lbs.)
We were Jane Fonda's "war criminals."
When Jane Fonda was in Hanoi, I was asked by the camp communist political officer if I would be willing to meet with her. I said yes, for I wanted to tell her about the real treatment we POWs received. . . and how different it was from the treatment purported by the North Vietnamese, and parroted by her as "humane and lenient."
Because of this, I spent three days on a rocky floor on my knees, with my arms outstretched with a large steel weight placed on my hands, and beaten with a bamboo cane.
I had the opportunity to meet with Jane Fonda soon after I was released. I asked her if she would be willing to debate me on TV. She never did answer me.
These first-hand experiences do not exemplify someone who should be honored as part of "100 Years of Great Women." Lest we forget. . . "100 Years of Great Women" should never include a traitor whose hands are covered with the blood of so many patriots.
There are few things I have strong visceral reactions to, but Hanoi Jane's participation in blatant treason, is one of them. Please take the time to forward to as many people as you possibly can. It will eventually end up on her computer, and she needs to know that we will never forget. See less

[Pat Stedman | Dating & Relationship Coach for Men @Pat_Stedman]

On January 6th I followed the crowd into the Capitol and shouted. Police stood by the whole time, hanging out with us and sometimes directing us places.

At one point near the House Chambers I was walking downstairs when a trio of some special section, secret service looking men started pointing guns in my direction.

Confused and annoyed, I walked the other way and when I saw a normal police officer asked him why they were doing that.

He informed me a protestor (Ashli Babbit) had been killed, and advised me to leave the building.

I walked towards the exit and after a short rest on the bench I left.

I harmed nobody and damaged no property that day and complied with all police orders.

What I received for that was a pre-dawn raid at my parents house, where my 1 month post-partum wife and I were staying, on Biden's first day in office. His DOJ had signed the order to arrest me 3 hours after his inauguration.

In the subsequent weeks I received death threats online and harassing phone calls, something that would be ongoing for the next few years.

I was banned from Meta and Paypal. My wife and I were both debanked by PNC and banned from Airbnb. My wife was detained at the airport for hours with our newborn daughter.

I was charged with 4 misdemeanors and the 1512 unconstitutional felony. The government offered to drop the misdemeanors if I pled to the felony. The felony was a lie, so I refused and went to trial.

At trial the prosecution for 2 days straight was allowed to show footage to the jury of things that occurred around the Capitol I wasn't present for "for context." When we asked to put forward footage that contradicted the prosecution's "context" we were not allowed. They could show what they wanted, we could not.

Police officers were then put on the stand for the next 2 days who cried about their experiences. I had no idea who they were. They admitted they never saw me or interacted with me.

Nevertheless like every other J6er, I lost, and was sentenced to 4 years and $22k in fines and restitution. Yet even after the Supreme Court overturned the felony, the judge would not let me out until my misdemeanor sentences of a year were maxed out. Because she can't count she actually kept me in longer - to the extent she intervened at the last minute to make the prison release me on a Sunday, something that is against BOP rules. My family sat outside the prison gates the Friday before practically the whole day waiting in vain because of this pettiness.

But the government wasn't satisfied with their pound of flesh: after my release they took me back in for resentencing, to attempt to have me resentenced after the fact to my misdemeanors consecutively, so I'd be taken from my family again and have another 1.5 years behind bars. This time I won, as they had no legal precedent and it skirted on violating double jeopardy since I had served my full prison time. Even still, it cast a cloud over the holidays and cost me another 20k my family couldn't afford.

People ask whether prison was bad, and yeah of course prison sucked. It was a hard and violent place. I was present for a stabbing, and was lucky to avoid two fights and a race war.

But dealing with Biden's DOJ and the DC Judiciary was the real trauma - they would grind down your spirit by weaponizing the legal system and use the endless procedure to bankrupt you. I had nightmares for months after release that I had somehow been hit with new charges.

By the time I was pardoned by President Trump, I had spent literally every single day of Biden's presidency either in prison or under some form of supervision. I had incurred over $300k in legal fees and over $1 million in lost business.

It was a reign of terror, and yet it was a mere foreshadowing of what they had planned for anyone else who opposed them under Kamala. The country should never forget it.
