... if and when Trump gets around to doing that too (you know... "Christian Nation" and all that.) Your thoughts?




The original 1902 McMillan Plan for Washington, D.C. proposed a large, cruciform (cross-shaped) reflecting pool stretching between the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial. However, to avoid unstable soil and the high costs of excavating around the monument's foundations, the design was altered, and the cross arms were omitted, resulting in the long rectangular pool seen today.

1. Didn't The Handmaid Tale's have something like that?

I immediately thought of The Handmaid's Tale when I saw the topic.

"Through visual special effects, the showrunners removed the traditional pointed apex of the Washington Monument and added a horizontal crossbeam, turning the historic American obelisk into a permanent symbol of Gilead's totalitarian religious rule."

Thank you for finding it.
