At this point stay the fuck away from the national mall if you can help it or D.C. entirely. Place is a total shit show.
Or america, stay safe
I try
Arrest a bunch of random people with great fanfare in order to preserve the optics of his claim. Then quietly release them with no media attention because there's obviously no evidence because it's all clearly covering up for incompetence.
Here's where that's troubling...
It's a very small step between releasing them and making them disappear so that they don't talk to the media afterwards
Exactly. Tyranny.
It will be interesting to see the algae "disappear" with the next round of wasted money.
With how his cult is, making them disappear is probably just too much trouble. His audience is gullible enough they likely don't even need to make arrests, though.
Rape children - no worries. Touch algae pond - believe it or not, straight to jail.
Rape algae pond? Straight to the Cabinet.
If it makes you feel any better, DC juries will laugh this out of court if the judges don't first.
That's if they even make it all the way to trial.
I guess they better hope they're afforded due process then. Not a guarantee anymore in the US.
I wish I had this kind of confidence in our criminal justice system
They've been pretty consistent so far, refusing to indict in a few similar cases and then acquitting the ham sandwich guy.
Anything they can do to try and take peoples minds off the Epstein files.
While he gears up for even more war crimes as a big distraction (and the next wave of stock market manipulation). This is a small one blown sk far out of proportion.
This further fans the flames of the demise in U.S. tourism. What a bunch of idiots, no plans to ever go down there ever again.
I think there is a market for tourists who want to show their support for TEAM ALGAE!!
I say this as someone who longs for the day when Trump is a thing of the past like when someone brings up Covid these days. Also I have nearly 30 years in the water treatment business and algae is a nemesis during the summer months. To have such a problem with algae so soon after refilling it is odd. I don't buy the idea that it was living in pipes that weren't cleaned. If true high phosphate levels are suspicious. The water evaporation claim is BS too.

Oh, you sweet summer child. I don't want to burst your bubble, but Coronavirus is still detectable in the sewage systems of america and worldwide, which means people are still getting infected.

One dead baby duck was caught floating in the pool over the weekend, though the cause of death was unclear.
Did they charge it with vandalism too?
No, with pterorism
No, RFK Jr just put it in his freezer for later.
It possessed preen oil, a common antifa material for Molotov quacktails
Considering how many chemicals they dumped in there I'm surprised they found only one.
The rest of its brood had already dissolved.
Officially charged with wading and abreading
Duckling was actually there to Row but that got overturned and it had to Wade.
250 foot long gash? This claim sounds pretty sus. Wanna bet they’re arresting people who are ripping off the peeling rhino liner for souvenirs?
They're arresting people who just stopped and touched a piece to inspect it.
He has also designed boats, paddles and other waterproof products, and said he was curious about what materials had been used to paint the pool. The 67-year-old said he only touched the material briefly before he was told by one of the park service workers helping to clean the algae from the pool to stop.
Yeah, that sounds about right.
When I saw people ripping off the floating liner, I immediately thought “they’re going to try to blame the bad work on these people”
lol I think you are right.
Of all the stupid shit…in a few weeks these people will be in court with the judge laughing everyone out of the room.
Meanwhile they'll have lost their job, with it their health insurance, possibly their apartment,...
Well , not for something like this. The olympian was held for five hours and released. Hearing date is July 9. If he even has an employer (he may be retired), his boss would just laugh if he said, “Yeah, so I got arrested, and this is why…” (Now, if he’d been arrested on suspicion of murder or something, that would be another issue altogether.)
You can beat the rap but you can't beat the ride
And it turns out the ride fucks you over more then the rap could.
They should be arresting Donvict and his pool boy.

This is the guy lol
They did, and they convicted him with 34 felony crimes, and yet...
Somehow the child rapist returned
Pics or it didn't happen.
