Dan Diamond@ddiamond.bsky.social · 5d agoA Washington Post analysis earlier this month found the Reflecting Pool errors were likely due to contractor errors. Turns out the Trump administration had documents that privately agreed, even as they publicly blamed vandals and touted arrests.

Mike Masnick@masnick.com · 2w agoWait. They all shake hands at the end? What are we even doing here? He's the US President suing you for $20 billion for reporting on the birthday card he sent his friend the pedophile in which he drew a naked girl & mused about secrets. And they all shake hands?
