Good morning from Camp Reflecting Pool

@replamonica.bsky.social showed up for her community. Now she's facing 17 years for doing her job — conducting oversight and holding this administration accountable. Let me be clear: targeting elected officials for doing their jobs is what authoritarians do. LaMonica, I'm with you in this fight.

REPUBLICAN SEN. TILLIS: “What Freakin’ parallel universe did I wake up in? You’re telling me — if it’s true — damaging the reflecting pool lining is something Pirro wants to prosecute… yet they’re releasing people who pled guilty to assaulting officers?”

According to our Constitution, we should have overthrown our government by now.

Under Biden, milk at Aldi cost me less than $2. I spent $3.25 for milk this week at the same store. Which is still lower than $4.75 at our local DG.

Announced at the "Prime Video Presents: Building the Future of Adult Animation" panel, Genndy Tartakovsky and Cartoon Network Studios are developing a CONAN THE BARBARIAN series for Prime Video. #AnnecyFestival

THIS 👇 HERE IS TRUE......👍🏼

It takes 1.28 seconds for a message to reach us from the Moon. It takes as little as 35 minutes from Jupiter. It takes as little as 4.5 hours from Pluto. It takes at least 6-12 months from NYT reporters, plus $35 for the book containing it.

Reminder: Under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, the Department of Justice was legally required to make the files public by December 19, 2025—which was 187 days ago. That is 187 days of ignoring the law.

Zohran Mamdani and AOC aren’t the main reasons democratic socialists are getting elected. Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Donald Trump and Mike Johnson are the main reasons democratic socialists are getting elected. Eventually, people start to realize who’s keeping them poor.

🗣️ HASAN: "I wish they'd stop calling me a terrorist, a radical — None of these (winning candidates) are radical... They want to end 🇺🇸 militarism, spend 💰 on roads, infrastructure, schooling, healthcare, rather than 💣 overseas."

👇🏽WTF America?

we want our fresh water and real jobs, not artificial intelligence

Here’s the full video of his speech! youtu.be/hEfnuYIBDEw?...

People calling leftist candidates radical are acting like abolishing ICE, taking on corruption, and stopping genocide are a bad thing

Please remove this idiot from office.

Ossoff: "The other thing that is really bothering people is that while Americans are paying record high prices for just about everything, the first family is becoming billions of dollars wealthier, sweetheart deals all over the world. The president is literally building a monument to himself."

He’s putting a fence around Lincoln’s reflecting pool so you can’t see all the algae and chemically dissolving paint and dead ducks. Tomorrow he’ll make it illegal to photograph the pool from behind the fence. The next day, illegal to post memes about it.

AOC on the Reflecting Pool: They talked a bunch of smack. They said they had to repaint the pool, and now they’ve turned it into an actual swamp.

Reminder that Musk literally shared Russian disinformation to justify his USAID cuts

But God forbid one of these cowardly male reporters speak up when orange ass-hat demeans a female reporter...

💔 Heartbreaking. ProPublica reports that more than 776,000 kids just lost SNAP benefits under the Big Ugly bill. Families can’t buy groceries. Kids are starving. Republicans’ priority? Funding masked thugs who terrorize our streets. Shameful. #RepublicansStarveChildren

There’s a reason Trump is so angry about his failure in the reflective pool and blaming everyone else…. He knows it does damage to his reputation. So, let’s keep reminding people. The reflective diarrhea pool is his doing and his alone

Later...

A worker making $50,000 a year contributes to Social Security on 100% of their income. A CEO making $20 million a year contributes to Social Security on less than 1% of their income. Instead of raising the retirement age, we should scrap the Social Security tax cap.

Epstein Files:

Found the vandals! 🤭🤣

Hey hey... @turbokat42.bsky.social

Well done; Mother Nature! God-tier trolling.

We have a new message for Democrats: attack attack attack. Trump is corrupt, he’s butchered the economy, and his DOJ operates like mob lawyers. And every voter knows it. So stop looking backward. Stop with the endless focus groups. This isn't complicated. He’s weak. Finish him.

Dustin Nolan, Emmy winning anchor at KWQC TV6 in the Quad Cities, quit live on air Friday. "We have to be more than sanitized news because it makes people feel uncomfortable. The facts matter." He did not name his reasons. He did not have to.

If you see this, post a female superhero! ❤️💙🤍

"The story the White House expects Americans to believe is that Trump and his team are impervious to pressure. The president does what he wants when he wants. The narrative, however, isn’t true. The Republican administration regularly reverses course under pressure..." www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

Fox Corporation is buying Roku for $22 billion. Roku sits in more than 100 million global streaming households. Fox owns Fox News, Tubi, and NFL and MLB broadcast rights. Fox now controls the hardware in your living room, the platform you use to access it, and your viewing data. Follow the money.

The Jeffrey Epstein situation isn’t the only monstrous crime ever committed in the United States. We’ve had cannibalism and mass murders. However what distinguishes this from other heinous crimes is that the government is choosing to protect the wealthy and powerful. This is clearly not justice.

"President Donald Trump launched an unnecessary war against Iran and destroyed the economy, but he's mostly focused on deploying the National Guard to protect the renovation of the reflecting pool he completely botched" is a sentence that would have gotten you involuntarily committed 20 years ago.

The woman was just sitting in her home.

I’m old enough to remember when the Department of Justice used to prosecute crimes instead of commit them.

BREAKING: Donald Trump is reportedly furious that the annual ranking of US presidents by a committee of 50 top presidential historians was released today, and the committee almost unanimously ranked Trump’s second term as the worst in US history… Cry harder, ASSHOLE! 😎✨
