All Hat No Cattle: Trump says drained Reflecting Pool will be ‘put back into service soon’

Trump says drained Reflecting Pool will be ‘put back into service soon’

...The 2,082-foot pool was drained again for repairs after the peeling paint and algae raised concerns around the project. Trump has alleged without proof that the pool was vandalized...“These Country hating sleazebags should pay a big price for the damage done. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”

Update from the reflecting pool! The pool has been drained, and there are no signs of the giant gash that Donald Trump has been lying about. No indications of major vandalism. Just a bad paint job. The only thing that’s been exposed is that Trump has been lying about this. - Jim Acosta

Poll: Support Growing to Send ICE Agents to Iran - Andy Borowitz

It's As Though Trump Uses A Dart Board For His Daily Iran War Decisions

The U.S. military conducted airstrikes against Iran for the fourth day in a row on Tuesday, targeting “emerging threats” from Tehran, a U.S. official, speaking on condition of anonymity, told The Hill.

The official said U.S. forces carried out a “few” additional strikes on military targets in Iran, kinetic action that comes just hours after President Trump announced he would nix his proposal from Monday for a 20 percent tolling fee on cargo transiting the Strait of Hormuz and would instead discuss trade and investment deals with Gulf countries.

Republican Shenanigans

You don't send 20 FBI agents to a residence for a "routine" check. You know they are clearing out Lindsey Graham's computers, correspondence, and personal notes. They are protecting this administration by wiping away any incriminating evidence. - Jamie Bonkiewicz

"I just want to find 11,780 votes,"
-Donald J. Trump
Isn't it ironic that the guy caught on tape trying to overturn an election is the same guy screaming about mass voter fraud?

Trump Won't Be Happy Until He's Dead.
Hunter Biden said he had his Secret Service protection pulled after right-wing influencer Laura Loomer shared a picture online of him with his family in South Africa...“And we were there for a day, and Laura Loomer put out on her X a picture of me and my son and Melissa in Cape Town and said, ‘This is ridiculous, this criminal still has Secret Service and they’re on vacation and we’re paying for it,’ and the next day, the president canceled the Secret Service, which is fine,” Biden said.

Biden said his parents will have Secret Service protection “forever.” Blanco asked Biden if he was the first person to have his Secret Service protection canceled.

“I think so,” Biden replied.
