🚨BREAKING: Trump hired a private pool contractor to fix the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool for an estimated $1.5 million to $2 million..
the same pool the National Park Service was quoting over $300 million to repair..
that's a $298 million gap.. for a pool..
and the wildest part..
the pool had a full renovation in 2012.. the government spent the money.. did the work.. and it was still covered in algae and goose droppings for years after..
this is the same playbook every single time..
a government agency quotes $300 million.. a private contractor quotes $2 million.. and the only reason you find out is because someone finally got mad enough to call a pool guy..
Trump inspected it in April 2026.. said it was filthy and leaking.. announced a blue coating project.. and work was already underway by May 2..
your tax dollars funded a $300 million estimate for a pool that a contractor is fixing before the Fourth of July..
the system worked for someone today.. just not for you.
I’ll make another post later and trust me, you don’t want to miss it. Turn on notifications, this is important.

@MickamiousG Value science. Value fairness. Value equality. Not a fan of creeping religion in politics - a hallmark of the right.
The things you've listed there are lazy tropes.

🇦🇺 Labor have rigged the voting system
They have shored up their voting base with immigration, bloated public service, & more & more people reliant on government largesse
A system doomed to fail
Vote the commies out

On January 1, 2026, the European wind industry implemented a self-imposed landfill ban on turbine blades.
This has left many countries scrambling silently for solutions. Landfill has become the next unwanted crisis, yet it's the conversation no one wants to have. Germany, Finland, and the Netherlands have banned blade landfills, and so for a time they are being exported to countries like the UK or France, where they can still be buried.
Banning waste like turbine blades doesn't make it vanish though—it just puts it on a truck to a neighbour's backyard. Low-scale solutions are often cited as the answer, like turning blades into noise barriers, bridges or playground equipment.
How do you turn 43 million tons of blade waste from turbines into park benches and koala crossings? How many park benches does one planet actually need?
Modern recycling for glass and carbon fibre often requires pyrolysis (high-heat chemical decomposition). To recycle a 'green' blade, you must burn an immense amount of energy to break down the resins.
We are trading a physical waste problem for a new energy demand problem. People love a quirky solution that highlights the absurdity of the problem—like the image of a massive 80-metre blade being used as a single, very long bus shelter.
Even 'green' solutions have a physical footprint that can't be wished away by a spreadsheet.

Seems #OneNation is making its presence felt on electoral scene. Almost a quarter of vote in Nepean by-election. Big test is #Farrer next Saturday where #PaulineHanson is making huge effort. Am hoping that Independent candidate Millthorpe edges them out.
