Trump's Great American State Fair is "kind of rubbish"

Donald Trump's Great American State Fair, that 16-day celebration of all things America currently underway at the National Mall, kicked off this weekend not with a bang, but with something more akin to a whimper. The fair, which Jason Weisberger here at Boing Boing likened to a Spirit Halloween installed inside a failing megachurch, is currently limping along, according to many of the hilarious eyewitness accounts from folks who have suffered through a visit so that we don't have to. — Read the rest The post Trump's Great American State Fair is kind of rubbish appeared first on Boing Boing.

Billionaire Destruction From Reflecting Pools To Predators

Trump spent more than 16M trying to turn the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool blue—yet it's a green, algae-choked pond scum. Like Trump Tower...And instead of owning it, admitting he hired an idiot pal as a no-bid contractor (and took a taste himself?) so the usuals get rich, he's blaming vandals. Look in the mirror, prickless. If everything Trump touches gets worse, the new Trump Memorial is the proof. If only that were the worst thing he was up to. I sat down with investigative writer Ellie Leonard for a full hour on the people who built and protected Jeffrey Epstein’s machine. It is known, there is proof in many cases, but the DOJ is constipated by greed and ass-kissing, so they're still walking around: collecting checks, getting glossy magazine profiles. We need to ensure the authoritarian egg timer set to November. As all signs point to Republicans aiming a weapon of mass electoral destruction at themselves.
