Earlier today President Trump signed some executive orders relating to control of the federal workforce and measures to combat foreign import trade manipulation. During the event President Trump gave an update on the Washington Mall reflection pool that is nearing completion. At the conclusion of the signing, President Trump takes questions from the press pool. [Prompted]
.
Gee whiz I thought he suffered a stroke.
Bunch of sick bastards
People (Moonbats) posting on X that he’s not been seen for 8 days. Clowns!
That epic beatdown of CNN/Kaitlyn Collins was worth the watch.
They took their que from Ted Liu. So full of hate
Democrats to a man or woman are all full of vitriol and incivility.
What we are watching with these useless hearings is a preview of what to expect should, God forbid, they manage to take control of either the House or Senate…or both. And brother, these repellent creatures mean to deliver.
This performance should shake all sane voters to their core, lest they decide to protest vote or not vote at all.
I pray disaffected MAGA voters will think about this good and hard…
“Rise like lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number –
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you.
Ye are many – they are few.”
~Percy Bysshe Shelley
At least these hearings allow the world to witness the dems evil lunacy.
This…and only this much is true.
And yet, aren’t you embarrassed for out nation by the grotesque spectacle?
I certainly am.
What I also realized watching the crazed loons during yesterday’s Marco hearing (in the House), is that our adversaries learn exactly who to pick for nefarious action. They know exactly who to target for Useful Idiots operations. How easy to approach these emotionally impaired, extremely low IQ politicos incapable of earning a living by any other means to draw this ilk into their nefarious orbit. Its really very concerning.
It’s beyond the pale, beyond comprehension that these people would rather the country fail than do well.
My dear friend we’re watching people who disregard their own and their own children’s and families’ future.
How does a sane person respond to such insanity?
Be well Betsy, may you and yours prosper and increase in wisdom.
How do we respond, dear Monti?
Honestly, I haven’t commented on any of the other threads because I haven’t been able to reconcile how far we’ve fallen, if this…not who…holds our Republic hostage to their vanities and vulgar emotional instabilities.
And I do worry for my children and now 10 (as of 7 pm this evening) grandchildren. As you do yours. As all Treeper do for theirs. I guess the memories of four horrendous years between President Trump’s first and third term are forgotten (or dulled) for too many.
In the end we must ask for God’s patience and mercies…and divine assistance… which I’m sure are sorely tested.
Bless you, dearest friend…I’m now off to rejoice over the safe delivery of our newest granddaughter, which will go a long way to blotting out the scenes we witnessed today…
My fourth grandkid is due in a couple months. Enjoy my friend with whom I share the same air.
My best to you neighbor.
Congratulations! It is indeed an occasion for rejoicing! I pray for your grandchildren, and mine, that God may yet have mercy on this country…and that they may grow up in a world that is amazing, beautiful, filled with opportunities, and surrounded by family and friends who will love and nurture them every step of the way!!
Congratulations dear Bet! Grandchildren are God’s reward to us for not killing our children. 😆
And today is our oldest granddaughter 26 birthday. Last month we had her wedding at the ranch. ❤️😘
Blessings be upon you.
Joy.

My daughter, 47 years, gave us two grandsons, now 19 yrs and 13 yrs. My son, 42 years, gave us two grandsons now 13 yrs and 9 yrs. I have always wanted more and better for our children. But the grandchildren are dreams I never expected and still have difficulty believing. I hope it is as good for you as it has been for me. Congrats to you…bill
Congratulations Betsy jones! May you and your family all live long and prosper.
Wow! Ten is such a wonderful number! Congratulations, dear heart. I hope she looks just like you!! 💕
Quite a few of these demons are childless. They want to destroy civilization.
IN Their Own Way they HAVE helped destroy civilization – thru Abortion – Murdering the Yet UnBorn into THIS World
and in the various ways making SURE they Do Not Reproduce

I was watching it yesterday. That guy comes across as ‘central casting’ (as PDJT likes to say) for the stereotypical Chinese communist conducting a typical kangaroo inquisition: Tyrannical, full of rage, developmentally arrested – it was all on full display with this wack-job. I’m a little surprised Beverly Hills voted for someone so easily triggered and seething.
I used to have about 6 chickens who laid the most beautiful and delicious eggs. But they were very MEAN to each other. They would peck at each other on the back of their necks until their necks were bloody.
Kaitlin Collins is a hen in the CNN chicken coop. That whole “news network” remind me of my former chickens.
I don’t think she knows how to deal with the Rooster that President Trump is. Basically the Rooster rules the roost. Too graffic to explain.
Trump aint a rooster — he’s a frickin’ Eagle!
Eagles don’t eff hens, they eat them as food.
Male eagles mate with female eagles — alphas in their own right — like Ivana and Melania.
Federal District Court Judge appointed by Obama rules the pool is longer but the skyscrapers are wider.
Good one!
I believe he followed up with an order to widen the reflecting pool.
A day filled with epic smackdowns of loony leftists. Sweet!
*orders more popcorn*
So good to see Peter Navarro there!
I pray that the Executive Branch stays focused. I’ll leave it at that based on that despicable House vote. God is watching.
… apologies for posting nearly the entire article, but each paragraph truly is informative …
Exclusive: Burgum Debunks Leftist Freak-Outs over Reflecting Pool Restoration
… informing listeners that prior to these fixes it leaked 45,000 gallons of water per day.
“This pool is eight acres,” Burgum said, explaining that one could put the Washington Monument on top of the Empire State Building to reflect the enormity of the pool, which spans over 2,000 feet.
Former President Obama’s administration closed the Reflecting Pool for two years and spent $38 million attempting to repair it, to no avail.
“The fix didn’t work. It’s been leaking ever since they decided it was going to be a green project. They’re going to save on city water. They put water in from the Potomac. It got an algae bloom.
If you look at aerial photos from – again what this thing looked like when we inherited it, doesn’t look blue. It looks green,” he pointed out.
“I mean, completely green on the aerial photos, because it was just filled with algae,” Burgum said.
An international visitor brought the dismal state of the Reflecting Pool to President Trump’s attention, and the rest is history.
“He said he wanted it clean. We started digging into this thing,” the Trump administration official explained.
The project is immense, including draining it, sand blasting, repairing all of the pipes, bubblers, and more.
Further, the Interior Secretary explained, the bottom surface had turned gray. Burgum also explained that it was a much darker color 100 years ago, because it was meant to reflect.
“If you have a swimming pool, you want a light blue bottom. You want to be able to see down into the bottom, whether it’s three feet or 10 feet, safe to jump in. But on a reflecting pool, you want it dark. President Trump chose American flag blue, it’s the same exact blue that’s in the American flag. It is going to be perfect for reflecting,” Burgum said.
He noted that the establishment media – namely, the New York Times – freaked out when they put down the primer, which is a much brighter blue.
“Some storied journalists from the New York Times effectively almost lost their minds and started, you know, talking about the color, and it wasn’t even the finished color, it was the primer color of the epoxy before this industrial liner went down,” he said.
Burgum explained the project involves “two and a half miles of expansion joints.”
“When you have something 2,000 feet long – and in D.C. it’s 90 degrees in the summer and zero on a few days in the winter – it’s over six inches of expansion and contraction that we have to manage in this construction project to not have it leak. And this thing was leaking – before we started this project two months ago – 45,000 gallons a day,” he said.
“We had to have water continuously running into it, just to keep even. All of that’s going to be taken care of, because we’ve got the master builder,” Burgum said.
“We’ve got President Trump. You know, he’s the only guy that’s ever occupied that office that’s done the level of complex construction projects. And he loves construction workers. He loves construction, and he knows exactly what he’s talking about on these projects.”
Thank you Nim !!
One of the EOs:

Moving some civil service positions to “employment-at-will” where employees can be fired “for a good reason, a bad reason, or no reason at all”.
The list of affected positions appears to include many that are not “senior” or supervisory.
https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/2026SchedulePolicyCareer.eo_.APPENDIX.pdf
So once again, we are being lied to. (It is not just “mainly senior level positions” as claimed.)
And it may expand.
The intent seems to be cementing absolute top-down control overriding obstacles to planned monolithic authoritarianism > totalitarianism.

There’s always more than one goal with the machinations.
In this case, another goal will be revealed by the impact:
Psyop: Further degradation of the government workforce as part of degrading government.

” A physiologic stress response may be evoked by fear or perceived threat to safety, status, or well-being and elicits the secretion of sympathetic catecholamines (epinephrine and norepinepherine) and neuroendocrine hormones (cortisol) to promote survival and motivate success.
Cortisol is a potent anti-inflammatory that functions to mobilize glucose reserves for energy and modulate inflammation. Cortisol also may facilitate the consolidation of fear-based memories for future survival and avoidance of danger.
Although short-term stress may be adaptive, maladaptive responses (eg, magnification, rumination, helplessness) to pain or non–pain-related stressors may intensify cortisol secretion and condition a sensitized physiologic stress response that is readily recruited.
Ultimately, a prolonged or exaggerated stress response may perpetuate cortisol dysfunction, widespread inflammation, and pain”
DOGE was the preconditioning. This EO a next step. To be further expanded.
Hahaha. I was going to upvote you until I read your last point. There is nothing wrong with at-will positions. In fact, I’d argue that at-will employees tend to be more conscientious in many respects.
The amount of money that Qatar is dumping into the US economy was published yesterday: https://www.fdd.org/analysis/2026/06/03/mapping-qatars-400-billion-footprint-in-the-united-states/. How concerning is this infiltration of Muslim Brotherhood policies into our economy, education, industry, etc.?????
“Our pool is bigger than skyscrapers”,
Thank you for the chart picture Sundance!!!
Love, love love President Trump’s love of our country and all the history, monuments and huge effort he takes to care for them, for generations to come.

Also take note of the POTUS’ E.O. to save electricity generation and energy sources. I.E. coal mines.
POTUS: “Today, we’re officially invoking the Defense Production Act to save 13 coal plants in West Virginia, Kentucky, North Carolina, Indiana, Tennessee, Arizona, Arkansas, Oklahoma, North Dakota, and Wisconsin.”
A side-benefit is recovering Rare Earths from the leftover dirt from those mines. Almost like Alchemy, turning dirt into high-tech Rare-Earth strategic minerals.
Even Senator Joe Biden was once in favor of clean coal, here’s the vid:
