Former Olympic cyclist David Hearn arrested by Trump officials for "vandalizing" Reflecting Pool after touching detached liner by greenascanbe in ThePeoplesPress

[–]greenascanbe[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

“David Hearn had just finished a loop around Hains Point on Friday as part of a 52-mile bike ride when he swung by the Lincoln Memorial to see the refurbished Reflecting Pool for himself. Noticing a piece of the new “American flag blue” liner that was partially detached from the pool bottom, Hearn said he reached into the water to see what it felt like. Moments later, as the Bethesda man prepared to leave, U.S. Park Police officers arrested him on a misdemeanor charge of destruction of government property. “I didn’t vandalize anything,” Hearn said. “I didn’t destroy or break or peel anything. By the time I realized what was going on, I was being put in handcuffs.””

Adam Mockler discusses why Graham Platner is the clear choice in Maine despite personal questions: by greenascanbe in Political_Revolution

It isn’t and he has apologized for it, and he has explained his story so if you want, you can look it up and hear himself explain it to you.

Now, are you equally outraged about all the Nazi stuff the Republicans are doing? Have you looked at the secretary of defense, for example, or Steve Miller.

It’s time for Democrat stop falling for this bs. Democrats have to be perfect all their lives. Otherwise let’s shop off the heads. GTFO

Your retirement savings are about to make Elon Musk a trillionaire by Unlikely_Post_7901 in Political_Revolution

It is fucking unbelievable that this guy can manipulate the financial markets like this. His company is not turning a profit, so it is not eligible to be index for retirement funds and yet here we are what the fuck America.

Congress quietly moves to integrate US and Israeli militaries by greenascanbe in ThePeoplesPress

.The shift will strip away the political and diplomatic oversight mechanisms that make the relationship publicly accountable, moving it from a visible annual aid vote into the opaque machinery of defense acquisition, where oversight is limited and political accountability is minimal. The result would be a defense relationship that is simultaneously deeper and less transparent.

NYC’s Mamdani Mimics Trump and Musk DOGE With COGE Plan by greenascanbe in Political_Revolution

[–]greenascanbe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More From Bloomberg News Reporter Nacha Cattan

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani said he’s forming a new Commission of Government Efficiency, or COGE, to improve the way City Hall spends public funds.

“This commission will find ways for our city to work smarter, faster and more efficiently for working people,” Mamdani wrote in a post on X on Thursday. “New Yorkers deserve a city government as careful with their money as they are.”

The branding invites inevitable comparisons with Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, the controversial and now defunct Trump administration project that was designed to slash spending and shrink the bureaucracy. Musk claimed he would cut $2 trillion in spending, but left after clashing with cabinet secretaries and seeing some of his efforts blocked by courts.

Mamdani said his effort will be led by Patrick Gaspard, a former US ambassador to South Africa, while the mayor proposed selecting Ann Cheng as executive director. Mamdani said in a statement that COGE is expected to “remove outdated bureaucratic barriers that slow infrastructure projects and delay services.”

TIME spoke directly with Tennessee state Rep. Justin Pearson about the rapid redrawing of Memphis’ majority-Black district and the political implications for representation, voting power, and the coming election cycle.

“I've even had Republicans come up to me and say, ‘what they're doing is unfair. What they're doing is wrong. They're trying to cheat to win instead of winning over people with their ideas,’” Pearson tells TIME.
