On Aaron Rupar’s Bluesky page the commenters are trying to figure that out, but there’s no consensus yet.

The convicted felon is finally correct on something.
The Reflecting Pool has had a rough week. Just after a $14 million refurbishment , the water turned green from algae , and chunks of blue material were seen peeling off the bottom.
Now, President Donald Trump is chalking up the problems to “vandalism.”
“We’ve cleaned, renovated, and beautified over 45 Monuments and Memorials, 28 Statues, and 22 Fountains in Washington, D.C.,” the president wrote on Truth Social Friday evening. “However, we’ve had some real problems with Vandalism at the beautiful Reflecting Pool.”
He’s the one vandalizing so much of America: museums, historical sites, constitution…
The felon thinks he got Iran into an unconditional surrender.
President Donald Trump is revealing new details about the United States’ negotiations with Iran just days after both countries signed a memorandum of understanding calling for the war to end.
In an interview with Axios’ Marc Caputo published Thursday, Trump weighed in on the 14-point MOU between the two countries and pushed back on claims that the agreement is not the same as an unconditional surrender from Iran.
“Well, it really probably is unconditional surrender,” Trump said.
“Is it?” Caputo questioned.
“I think so,” Trump replied. “Look, they have no military. They’re all at the bottom of the sea — 159 ships. That’s what they had.”

Federal agents have arrested hundreds of immigrants off New York and New Jersey streets in recent months in a stealth enforcement campaign that disproportionately targeted people from Latin American countries, according to an investigation by the City Reporter based on a review of more than 1,200 lawsuits.
More than 93% of the people grabbed off area streets who filed suit were from Latin American countries, although Latinos make up only 66% of immigrants without legal status in the region.
The arrests have rattled Latino neighborhoods, as people disappear in moments as mundane as buying milk, walking their dog, taking out the trash or picking up their children from soccer practice.
Street arrests are different from other types of immigration enforcement in that they unfold in minutes, often on quiet residential streets and out of public view. Many immigrants who had no expectation of being detained were targeted at the sole discretion of agents in the field. In some accounts of the arrests, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents said they stopped people because they looked similar to someone they had a warrant for, then realized they had a different subject, but apprehended the person anyway.
The surprise encounters often left immigrants stunned, as they feared they were being kidnapped. Some ran in terror from the masked agents. Other encounters turned violent as officers deployed Taser guns and smashed car windows. Agents at times shouted racial epithets, for example, allegedly calling one immigrant a “maldito Mexicano” – “fucking Mexican” – during the arrest, according to one lawsuit filed this January in federal court.
Felon-in-chief sidekick is contradicted in real time.
JD Vance was boasting about the opening of the Strait of Hormuz on Fox News just as news broke that Iran had actually closed the all-important waterway.
Asked by the Fox & Friends panel if the Strait was open, Vance said that it was.
“We got 16 million barrels [of oil] out of the Strait of Hormuz in just the last 24 hours, that is basically to where it was before the war started, and so that suggests that the straits really are open,” he said.
He put forward a theory that a ship may have been prevented from entering dangerous waters, but was adamant that the waterway was open to commercial traffic.
“Now what I would believe is that if a ship is going near a minefield, either our navy or another country’s navy—there are a lot of countries other than Iran who are in the region—might say ‘no, don’t go there because there are mines there,’” he said.
He then doubled down.
“No, we’re not seeing any evidence that the Iranians are still closing down the Strait of Hormuz,” he said. “It is going to take some time to clear those mines, though.”
Around the same time, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy declared the strait closed in a statement , saying the waterway was off limits because the United States failed to prevent the Israeli military from operating in Lebanon.
Fickle Felon!
US President Donald Trump declared that he “fell deeply in love” with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El Sisi during a meeting at the G7 summit in France. The remarks came as the two leaders sat together for a media briefing.
Seated beside El Sisi, the 80-year-old recounted their first encounter ahead of the 2016 US election. “I met him early in the campaign when Crooked Hillary and I were running against each other, right, and I was told that the president of Egypt is here,” Trump said. “So he was in a hotel, and I met him, and we fell in love. Deeply in love.”
I guess there’s one Muslim the felon loves.
Y’all remember the felon outsourcing his concentration camps overseas? Here’s an update.
JUBA, South Sudan (AP) — A Vietnamese national deported to South Sudan by the Trump administration under its controversial third-country deportation program was repatriated to Vietnam on Friday after spending more than a year in detention.
South Sudan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced the repatriation of 44-year-old Tuan Phan at a press briefing on Friday.
“We are grateful that while in our custody Mr. Phan was very disciplined, joyful, and importantly, he remained healthy,” said spokesperson Agok Anyar.
And by grateful he means absolutely astounded given the conditions in that country.
The choice of South Sudan as a receiving nation was particularly controversial given its exceptionally poor human rights record, high levels of corruption and growing political instability. Armed conflict displaced more than half a million people in 2025, according to the United Nations.
Monty:
“maldito Mexicano” – “fucking Mexican”
Nitpick: maldito is not fucking , maldito is damned , or cursed . Mal = bad, -dito , from decir = to talk. I put an evil spell on you, you Mexican.
And, of course, in my remembrance of Spanish (taken from two years of study over 30 years ago), the adjective actually comes after the noun. So it should be “Mexicano maldito.”
Both are correct. Malditos roedores was the favourite curse of Mr.Jinx when Pixie & Dixie got on his nerves. I guess it shows how old you are if you still say it.

Trump must have Googled ‘Pretty blonde woman on phone’. It looks like he got some random picture from the mid 80’s. There is some blanket on the couch that looks like it might be a seal of a state. So maybe she’s some congressperson or something.
What is that even supposed to mean? He lost it long ago, and is getting worse.
And congress twiddles their thum(b)s, and looks the other way.
WTF?
I heard the pump don’t work, 'cause the vandals took the handles.
From the “Trump is dying” thread:
Plus the cabinet but that’s par for the course with them.
I remember the season 4 episode on Madam Secretary where section 4 of the 25th amendment was invoked after the President’s erratic behavior including a totally out of character inappropriate remark about her appearance and firing SecDef after he refused to attack Russian satellites in response to an unverified sonic attack on an embassy.
Turned out it was a brain tumor pressing on something important and surgery restored him.

Perhaps we can get an ‘Abby Normal’ brain for Trump. That would certainly improve things.
Even with it pickled in formaldehyde.
Spoons:
I remember that cartoon!
I guess I’m old now.
Me too. I don’t recall Jinx saying anything in Spanish, though.
I was just about to say, I don’t recall Mr. Jinx being Hispanic.
In Spain they dubbed the original into Spanish, they gave Mr. Jinx an Andalusian accent (he often claimed he was a Gypsy) and made “marditos roedoreh!” (swapping the l with an r and ommiting the plural s was supposed to be Andalusian) his signature phrase.
Okay, “ridicule” and “alarm,” sure, but why “disbelief ”?? Haven’t these people been paying attention?
I just want to say that your posts about the nuances of language add immeasurably to the discussions on this board.
Das stimmt! (“That’s for sure!”)
You are very kind, thank you.
