“Irrefutable“ = “No Evidence At All”

"Irrefutable evidence!”
They voted for Trump to clean it up and he is cleaning it up everyday.
More irrefutable evidence! Of really disgusting racism and fear of a brown planet. But I repeat myself.
Americans built, sustained, and powered this country for two and half centuries.
When the real Americans got here and displaced the natives and exploited the poor and brought slaves from Africa and made and kept racism as American as violence and cherry pie.

I mean, every time you think he can’t get lower, he gets a bigger shovel. I’m just waiting for him to start talking about final solutions.  Until then, we have the Administration “corrections” of history:
Under pressure from the Trump administration, the National Park Service (NPS) removed historical context from signage that explained the role women played in the creation of the Muir Woods National Monument and highlighted the racist ideologies of some of the men associated with the site.

A ranger for the monument confirmed that the information removed last week originated from an initiative by NPS officials called “History Under Construction” that filled in gaps in the timeline of the park to offer a more comprehensive history of the monument in Marin County, California, which is known for its old-growth redwood trees.

An article on the National Park Service (NPS) website explains what new information park officials had added to the interpretive signs in 2021. This had included highlighting the work of a women’s club, called The California Club, which launched the first campaign to save what was then known as Sequoia Canyon.

The updated text also detailed the racist backgrounds of otherwise celebrated men associated with creating the monument. For example, it added the political views of William Kent, who was credited with buying and later donating the land that would become the national monument to President Theodore Roosevelt. The additions referenced that he worked on anti-Asian policies during his time in Congress, which laid the groundwork for Japanese mass internment during World War II.

It also pointed out that important conservation figures of that time like Gifford Pinchot, who was appointed chief of what is now the U.S. Forest Service in 1898, was also a eugenicist who believed the human race could be improved by “selective breeding.” He served a 10-year term on an advisory council of the American Eugenics Society.

The additional text also highlighted the original caretakers of the land, the Coast Miwok and Southern Pomo tribes, as well as pointing out that their lands were stripped from them and later became places like the national monument.
And what’s everyone paying attention to? Hunter Biden on a podcast.
And if they aren’t talking about that, NYT and WaPo and CNN and Politico are talking about how Trump has turned the tide with MAGA on the Epstein files. Funny thing about that:
The Times cited "Stephen K. Bannon, a former White House adviser to Mr. Trump and influential leader of the MAGA base," who told the paper that "the Murdochs’ bizarre assault on the president galvanized his base" and that "we are united as Trump goes on offense — against the Murdochs, the courts and the deep state." (The Murdoch family owns the Wall Street Journal.)

The Washintgon Post cited "Stephen K. Bannon, Trump’s former adviser who hosts a daily talk show popular with Trump’s MAGA supporters," who told the paper that "MAGA is now united, because they can see there’s a common enemy," which he described as "the Deep State, with their media partners, led by Murdoch."

CNN cited a certain Steve Bannon, identifying him as a leader of the MAGA movement. "'We are finally on offense,' Bannon, Trump’s former aide and a leader of the MAGA movement, said via text message to CNN. 'President Trump has had enough and is fighting back – against his real enemies.'"

Politico cited and reprinted the quote that Bannon gave to the Washington Post.
What do they call that? “Herd mentality”? Or is it “irrefutable evidence”? The House will be in recess from August 2nd to September 8th, in accordance with the Legislative Reorganization Act of 1970. And so we’re back where we started: Or at least distract the cultists at NYT, and CNN, and WaPo and Politico.
