Just a question [1] ['Greg Dworkin', 'Thom Hartmann', 'Bill In Portland Maine', 'Meteor Blades'] Date: 2026-06-15 Our illustrious bronzed leader, a self proclaimed successful developer has recently ‘redone’ Washington’s famous reflecting pool. Besides the result looking like its meant for lap swims (and questions of kick backs from his ‘pool guy’) it is now plagued with a massive algae growth -hopefully it just smalls bad and there is no toxic cyanobacteria involved. So, what do you think – is this growth symbolic of this administration or simply highly ironic? We'll get straight to the point: The financial hardships that Daily Kos is facing this year are tough.
