Long version: I did a screenshot from Bluesky. The original post on Bluesky is a video. I did not try to link the actual video.

In news that surely is unrelated to Trump’s idiotic fued with the Pope…

And this after Donald SPECIFICALLY said that he liked Leo’s brother better than he likes Leo.

The MAGA idiots apparently found that too difficult to parse.

Here’s another action for the Christian MAGAs to ponder:

> The Trump administration has abruptly canceled an $11 million contract with Catholic Charities to shelter and care for migrant children who enter the U.S. alone, ending a relationship between the Catholic Church and the U.S. government dating back to the first arrivals of Cuban exiles in South Florida.

Wonder what Little Marco will say about this?

Talk about absolutely no class:

> I was told to pack up my stuff that day, although at least my exit was more dignified than that of a colleague from the development office, who, a couple of months earlier, **had been terminated while conducting a tour for donors**.

(Bolding mine.)

That must have been humiliating for the employee, and I’m sure that’s a _great_ way to build confidence in donors.

The obvious answer is that the current administration has finally had the wisdom and courage to _correct_ the erroneous government policy toward migrant children and Cuban exiles that has existed in Days of Yore _heretofore_! (Rhymes! 😉) Finally we have a president who isn’t afraid to “Just Say No!” to undesirables who want to take over this country and drain us of our Precious Bodily Fluids. Preserve American fluids, Donnie!

That’s probably what the Christian MAGAs would come up with.

When is the opening? How many portraits of trump can he turn out in that amount of time? All the “new art” is going to be of and about him, right?

I expect a bunch of AI-created stuff. Maybe some of his old NFTs blown up and stuck into portraits.

There’s no way this can actually be built before he leaves office, is there? If so, I look forward to the next President going directly from the inauguration to ceremonially detonate the explosives.
