There’s a lot of historical precedent for wealthy pricks getting away with heinous shit. Like, look up the Johnstown flood. That one radicalized me at age ten after doing a book report on it.

But also… there are a LOT of examples of that just not working out so well in the end.

Hmmmm, a couple people who benefited by emigrating to the US & then had children to a US citizen come to mind:

Ivana Trump & her children, Don, Eric, Ivanka

Melania Trump & her son Barron.

And Miller benefited when his g-grandfather emigrated to US & built a successful business in Johnstown PA.

Sometimes the best view is through a stone archway. Johnstown Castle looking majestic in monochrome this time last year. The symmetry of that reflection is so satisfying! 🏰🇮🇪

A vertical black and white photograph looking through a tall, narrow, dark stone archway. In the centre distance, a large Gothic revival castle stands illuminated by soft natural light, framed perfectly by the dark foreground. The castle is reflected symmetrically in the calm waters of a lake below. Above, the sky is filled with textured clouds, creating a dramatic and moody atmosphere.

After Storm Chandra last night, let's just breathe and have a moment of calm courtesy of this lake at Johnstown Castle! 🌿✨

A scenic landscape photo taken from the shore of a lake. Dark, silhouetted tree branches and rhododendron leaves frame the image in the foreground, creating a natural tunnel effect. In the centre, a bright sunburst shines through the distant treeline, reflecting on the calm, silvery water. The scene is high contrast, with deep shadows and bright highlights, conveying a serene, crisp morning atmosphere.

He started a store in Johnstown PA, Glosser Bros. I grew up there & Glossers was very popular dept stores. It grew into different chains, Gee Bees was one, a Kmart kind of store.

His gg-parents must be rolling over in their graves that he became as evil as what they escaped.

There quite literally needs to be memorials to the fallen in Minneapolis. This is a resistance worth memorializing in the most literal of ways.

The winter light at Johnstown Castle is something else. Even on a hazy day, the water manages to shimmer. The silhouette of the winter branches frames the lake perfectly. 🌿💧

#photography #EastCoastKin #Wexford #WinterLight #NatureMood #IrishLandscape #LakeView #Silhouettes #TeamPixel
A vertical shot of a serene lake viewed through the dark silhouette of overhanging tree branches. The sun is high and hazy, creating a bright, silvery backlight that reflects off the rippling water. In the immediate foreground, golden-brown reeds and grasses rise up from the bottom. Across the lake, a line of dense, dark trees forms a horizon against a pale, washed-out sky. The overall mood is quiet, atmospheric, and high-contrast.

The way the light hits the towers at Johnstown Castle... absolute magic. The water was so still, it felt like a mirror portal to the past. A perfect spot for a crisp walk in County Wexford. 🏰✨

#Wexford #Ireland #Castle #Reflection #Nature #EastCoastKin
A majestic grey stone Gothic revival castle illuminated by bright warm sunlight, framed by dark tree branches in the foreground. The castle features a large round tower with battlements and intricate arched windows. It sits behind a calm lake which provides a near-perfect mirror reflection of the building and the surrounding trees. The scene is peaceful and historic, with deep shadows in the foreground contrasting with the sunlit stone.

The weather couldn't quite make up its mind at Johnstown Castle last week, creating this incredible, misty atmosphere on the water. It’s rare to catch the rain glowing like this! #photography #EastCoastKin #Wexford #JohnstownCastle #Mood
A vertical, atmospheric photograph looking out over a calm lake. The view is framed by a natural arch of dark, leafless winter trees in silhouette. Bright sunlight bursts through the branches in the upper right, illuminating falling rain that creates a misty, ethereal texture across the scene. The water reflects the silver light of the sky, contrasting sharply with the deep blacks of the foreground vegetation. The image evokes a feeling of quiet drama amidst the beauty of a sun shower.

Johnstown Castle is an absolute treasure trove for photographers in the south-east. Whether you want gothic architecture or serene ornamental lakes like this one, it’s worth the trip. I loved these backlit branches. #photography #EastCoastKin #VisitWexford #IrelandTravel #NatureWalks
A moss-covered tree trunk stretches horizontally across a calm, dark lake, creating a textured foreground. Behind it, a bright, hazy winter sun shines directly through the intricate network of bare branches, creating a dramatic backlit silhouette against a pale sky. The entire scene, including the complex branch patterns and the sun's glow, is reflected perfectly in the glass-like water below, evoking a peaceful, crisp winter atmosphere.

It is rare to catch the water quite this still. The Lower Lake at Johnstown Castle was absolute glass yesterday, perfectly doubling that crisp tree line. A moment of pure zen in the sunny southeast. #photography #EastCoastKin #Wexford #reflections #nature
A vibrant landscape photograph featuring a calm lake acting as a perfect mirror. A deep blue sky with wispy white clouds fills the upper half, while a line of trees with bare winter branches and patches of green holly sits along the bank. The water below reflects the trees and sky with flawless symmetry. The lighting is bright and sunny, illuminating the textures of the woodland.
