“…Under conditions of mass popular opposition to the war, which is being used by the Trump administration as a pretext to cut food stamps and other social services, the position of the Democratic Party is not ‘Stop the war’, but ‘Win the war!'”
–Andre Damon reporting at the WSWS, 07.22.2026

Here, Gomer, let a pro show you how we did it in Korea, Cuba, Vietnam, Yugoslavia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Gaza and Ukraine. We’ve been a war party since the Lord was a corporal.

(Full title: “Proposed Iran War Memorial Wall With Off-Ramp Bouquet”)

There’s something stiffening out there right now, but it sure as hell isn’t Pete’s “resolve”, if you know what I’m sayin’.

Along with this particular concept, I’m thinking of something a bit broader in scope, perhaps with the Wall as the centerpiece of a Donald J. Trump Iran War Memorial Park, with the Wall as a centerpiece overlooking a large Reflecting Pool in the shape of the Strait Of Hormuz and, in the Pool – in the spirit of JFK’s Eternal Flame – an Eternal Algae Bloom in loving memory of the 18 (at the moment) brave troops who laid down their lives for Democracy™ or affordability or some shit.

Then, maybe, on the other side of the Reflecting Pool, a small marble amphitheater with a UFC cage for celebratory matches on Veterans’ Day, Fourth Of July, Memorial Day…?

As I post this, we’re still waiting to hear if the Nazi tattoo-wearing, woman-harassing, domestic violence-committing ex-Abu Ghraib prison guard DNC Senatorial candidate is going to stay in the race, or if the DNC will have to drag Susan Collins out of her oxygen tent.

More sexual harassment and abuse revelations about a politician who guarded Abu Ghraib and already had a history of harassment and domestic violence?

Well-lll, shut my mouth.

When I first peeped that aerial shot on Reuters, it wouldn’t leave my mind.

On the one hand, it’s another bucket of your garden-variety shallow-ass Liberal pearl-clutching at seeing the Evil Orange Man giving the job of restoring the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool to a company which contributed heavily to his campaign and which promptly turned the project into a National Lampoon movie.

On the other hand, though – the part that wouldn’t leave me after seeing that Reuters foto – on a much deeper level than simply Trump doing his usual nouveau-riche alcoholic country-club vulgarian shit, it was much more symbolic of an empire in rapid decline, possibly even already at the point where the Emperor is appointing his horse to the Senate. It doesn’t so much say something about Trump specifically as it does about American society, culture and institutions in general.
