Aside from the obvious “What a _fucking idiot_” factor, I thought that the vandals he described got pardons, high-level jobs in the Administration, and potential access to a share of a nearly $2BN reparations fund? Huh. Wrong again, I suppose. ---

The Reflecting Pool is fine except we have to fix it now that the “criminally made algae” is gone. > [@Trump at Truth Social](#): > > The Reflecting Pool is now in full use after suffering great damage from Criminal, Radical Left Vandals, people that truly hate our Country. They cut the lower surface of a very expensive and strong waterproof padding, in the color of American Flag Blue, and put their hands underneath the surface, and ripped it. Likewise, they cut and butchered a 350 foot long strip, with many 1 and 2 foot individual cuts, creating great damage to this beautiful piece of art that was, last week, 100% free of leaks, and any of the other problems it has had since its building in 1922. It never worked properly until last week and, right after July 4th, when we will drain the water to treat the damage caused by these “animals,” it will again be in perfect shape. In the meantime, it is working well, the criminally made algae is gone, But enough about that! Let’s get to what really matters. > [@Trump](#): > > Most importantly on today’s visit, however, was the Secretary of the Interior, and his people, together with me and my staff, studying the dilapidated, worn out, and very dangerous and outdated Golf Course known as East Potomac Golf Links… > > …it was determined that, on this fantastic site, with water and unparalleled views of D.C.’s Monuments, we will build one of the Greatest Golf Courses anywhere in the World [Donald J.

> [@Trump at Truth Social](#): > > they cut and butchered a 350 foot long strip, with many 1 and 2 foot individual cuts, Donald really did learn the lesson that Roy Cohn taught Joe McCarthy back in the 1950s: when you’re making stuff up, provide **specific** numbers.

They gave him Washington DC as a binky. The District doesn’t deserve it. None of us does. The world doesn’t. The one thing that seems appropriate about the binky, though: Trump sucks. ---

Cassidy, a licensed physician and chair of the Senate HELP panel, had the power to block Kennedy’s nomination before it left his committee. > > Cassidy told CBS’s _Face the Nation_ that it was “pretty clear” and “easy to surmise” that Kennedy had lied about his intentions to pursue an anti-vaccine agenda when he met with the senator to secure his vote. > > “If you build public health upon a foundation of lies, then you’re going to have the absence of adequate public health,” added the senator, who said that promises made to him “have been violated” in the months since Kennedy took office. > > “At this point, the commitments that were made to me have been violated. When commitments are made, trust is destroyed. It’s difficult to have effectiveness,” he said. But he denied that he thought Kennedy had committed an impeachable offense.
