MAGA after Trump solves a problem he literally caused in the first place
The White House@WhiteHouse
Oil is flowing and gas prices have begun tumbling down, now BELOW $4 per gallon nationally.

@KaneBragg92316 @61Devlin @kfame70000000 @_sn_n Yeah? Did pissy liberals pour 12% hydrogen peroxide into the pool causing the bottom to peel up too?

@TheBritLad @HonestAlways2 Because that's a very stupid and obvious lie
English
@HonestAlways2 Why hasn’t anyone ever been convicted?

Americans, I have a question for you.
How was Joe Biden the president of the United States for 4 years??
He is the most incompetent person I’ve ever seen.
English
@actingliketommy It doesn't even really matter. It's just a very clear and obvious metaphor for his presidency. Cronyism, incompetence, waste, fraud, abuse and ego
English
MAGA... no one REALLY cares that much about the reflecting pool. It's only getting attention because Trump ignored everything else.
He started a war, tariff'd us to shit, and failed on every single campaign promise. He made the reflecting pool his gem... AND FUCKED THAT UP TOO

@wtfahhh0 This is what happens when the only interaction men have with women is through porn
English
@robertgraham This *shouldn't* be happening, period. This is what happens when you give nobid contracts to cronies. They do shoddy work. But instead of this happening at some gaudy and ugly hotel he owns, he did it to a national monument
English
It's not clear the new paint job is actually "falling apart", or merely a few "bad patches". Journalists shouldn't jump to assumptions.
The next time they drain the pool and clean it (likely next March), they'll presumably repair any bad patches.
ABC News@ABC
ABC News' Jonathan Karl reports from the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool where workers continue to battle algae – and the new paint job appears to be falling apart. The Department of Interior did not immediately respond to a request for comment. abcnews.link/aBAOLif

@BrilynHollyhand It's almost like when you spend months bragging about a project and something this embarrassing happens people notice and talk about it. Weird, huh?
English
The reflecting pool has gotten more coverage than:
- Somalian daycare fraud
- Laken Riley’s murder
- Biden’s mental health decline
Combined…
CBS News@CBSNews
Paint was seen peeling from the floor of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool in Washington, D.C. on Thursday, weeks after a $14 million renovation that included a new color President Trump called “American Flag Blue.”
English
@LeighWolf Absolute embarrassment how you lot will bend over backwards to defend this admin. Trump gave a nobid contract to his personal friend which ended up costing 10X the original bid and the bottom is peeling. And instead of having issues with fraud and abuse, you're mad people noticed
English
Absolute embarrassment how much time journos are spending to cover minor (and fixable) issues with the reflecting pool.

Went back to the reflecting pool with a waterproof camera. Here’s what it looks like underwater where a section has peeled up and was removed.
English
The bottom of the pool is not "paint" but polyuria/polyurethane.
Hydrogen peroxide is not a paint remover. It's a bleach that will stain things, but not remove it.
What you see in the picture is that while the bottom is green with algae, the water is actually pretty clear. The ozone filtration system seems to be keeping up.
There were criticisms when they were applying the coating that they weren't doing enough to prepare the surface. These criticisms appear to have predicted this problem.
NASA Watch@NASAWatch
Advice for future space colony life support system designers: Hydrogen peroxide is effective for killing pool algae but it is not a permanent fix on its own. Also: be careful how you clean your solar powered algae bioreactors. Hydrogen peroxide is not the best paint remover - but it does remove paint. #chemistry

@TwitCensors @actingliketommy @johnnymaga The AI source is fucking Facebook dude. Please, for the love of all that is good and holy, follow up on AI and actually confirm sources so you don't look like a mouthbreathing dipshit

Park Police reportedly arrested a man at the Reflecting Pool for cutting through the blue sealant.
Two layers of industrial grade polyurea doesn’t just “fail” like this down to the concrete—esp when the edge is still in tact.
They’re vandalizing our capital to “own Trump.”
Andrew Leyden@PenguinSix
A second area of the reflecting pool is peeling up, this time on the opposite side from the original piece that lifted up yesterday.

@Knuckle_HeadTV @MohammadMAbbas @Trooper9851 I love Vader. I love his redemption. Killing Ahsoka would do nothing for me beyond never having to see her again, which would be awesome
English
@MohammadMAbbas @Trooper9851 Maybe actually think about what I’m saying before making a comment like that. Never said it would tilt the scale for him morally speaking. How things land with viewers is every bit as important.
English
@Knuckle_HeadTV Dude literally slaughtered a room full of children. Killing Ahsoka by comparison is nothing
English
The best iteration of Ahsoka is Ashley’s matured performance in Rebels
Also Vader killing her would’ve made him far more unlikable and undermined his redemption in ROTJ

To open the $850 million Obama Presidential Center today, Barack needed:
-Bruce Springsteen
-Stevie Wonder
-Bono
-Oprah
-Spielberg
-Tom Hanks
-And THREE former presidents
That's a lot of star power to distract from the fact that the building looks like a giant concrete trash can — and that subcontractors STILL haven't been paid.
Thank God I don't have to pretend to like that hideous monstrosity.

@retneysholocron I dont wanna see that shit again as a baby. I don't mind the character, but he's so damn annoying at this point
English
@berganza1616 @RobertPolvado They dishonored themselves when they put on the uniform of another country and fought against the US. Cry harder loser
English
@RobertPolvado The Confederate soldier was just as much of an American as the Union soldier and dishonoring them is a more traitorous act.
English
There is no real point in being anti confederate other than to signal you are anti white and pro minority.
