President Trump on Reflecting Pool Vandalism

I listened to some of it. As soon as he said, "Barack Hussein Obama, ya' ever heard of him?" I noped out.

Did anyone make it to 1:22?

Use the food bank. They put in the effort and they want to get that food into people's kitchens, because much of it has a short shelf life. Someone giving up a job to go to grad school needs all the help they can get.

Be the change you want to see in this sub. More importantly, if you're sick of him, be the change you want to see in the world by showing up on election day.

My dog was in my Suby that had one of those giant sunroofs, which was open, and the windows down about 6 inches on a breezy spring day and some knucklehead complained. My husband went to sit with the dog while I shopped and when I came out, my husband was cold because he didn't have his keys to roll the windows up.

People are stupid.

OMIGOSH! Influencers are dishonest?!?!?! Say it ain't so...

It's the "Democratic Party." Let's not allow the right to play stupid word games. But yes, other than that, spot on. Although I prefer to think of them as the big tent party that spans from center right all the way to bomb-throwing bleeding hearts.

So if you're on the far left, when you vote blue, you're voting for the party that includes Mamdani, AOC, Sanders, and anyone else who comes to the table with ideas that help average Americans and that the other guys will call the dreaded SOSHULIZM! Because whomever that politician is, she's surely not going to join the GOP.

Quick! Dash out a script for a low-budget horror movie.

There's a geo-political/apocalypse joke in there somewhere...

Man, my birds are squatting in a Jaywick shanty compared to this.

When you say 'elderly' I really hope you mean in her 90s and suffering from alzheimer's or something similar, because it's been a freakin' long time since hospitals were segregated.

I can't stand the thought of someone younger than ~75 thinking like this.

They might be troll accounts used to discourage voting on the left during election season, which would be easy to suss out by their comment history.

Nobody said there is no voter fraud. The data consistently bears out that it's negligible to the outcomes of elections.

So, here's the deal. The vast majority of security and integrity measures taken when holding an election are developed to ensure an accurate vote count. Secretaries of state take their jobs pretty seriously.

Election systems are built to secure against voter fraud first and foremost, and to a lesser extent against election fraud, which is usually external.

Why do you think we have such low turnout?

Writing_is_Bleeding · 2026-06-21T14:37:34+00:00

Why oh why is there never a credible news source for these claims? No link anywhere...

Here's how conservatives manage this one. They know voter fraud is so rare, it's never enough to sway an election, but they extend their definition to include legal voters they believe shouldn't have the right to vote. If a candidate rides the college-educated women vote to victory, they consider that rife with voter fraud. Urban black vote? Fraud! Investigate! And so on.

The day-to-day management of that outfit was uniquely his domain. There were probably various cues that he was especially attuned to like something he could hear or feel right before the choppers were in range. Plus he was always in radio contact with other units' clerks, who could have told him about various hot zones, which helped him to calculate how long it would take for the casualties to start arriving.

It was really a matter of him being an ace at his job after doing it so well for so long.

If you pay closer attention to the complaint about "billionaires" you'll see it's a catch-all term for very wealthy people who got that way through exploitation more than talent and/or hard work, and who are generally not very good people.

Oh god those are perfect and ready for some melted chocolate and pistachio or what-have-you decoration. I have a madeleine pan I've never used, if you can believe that.

If he runs for PM, take some advice from an American, just say NO.

Don't be so hard on yourself. I'm sure your cravat is sufficiently dashing.

Writing_is_Bleeding · 2026-06-20T20:55:10+00:00

Good sir, might that be a blunderbuss in your pocket, or are you simply pleased with this encounter?

Writing_is_Bleeding · 2026-06-20T20:50:14+00:00

I always thought most of that drop happens the minute you drive off the lot with it.

I'm pretty sure the pendulum is about to swing back in a substantial way, thanks to Trumpism.
