petesouza Shame on Donald Trump for using a photo I made to try and justify yet another one of his lies.⁣
⁣
⁣
He posted this photo yesterday on Truth Social with the caption, “Biden sitting outside with Lisa Monaco, second in charge of DOJ, probably working on future Plots and Schemes against Republicans.”⁣
⁣
This photograph is more than TEN years old. I made this image on May 1, 2013. Joe Biden was then Vice President. Lisa Monaco was then President Obama’s homeland security advisor. ⁣
⁣
To give this more context, this photo occurred after the president’s morning intelligence briefing. The VP and Lisa are sitting outside the Outer Oval Office at the edge of the Rose Garden (note that no trees have yet been cut down). President Obama was departing the next day to meet with the President of Mexico. The Boston Marathon bombing had occurred two weeks before.⁣ Donald Trump was then a failed businessman seeking attention by saying President Obama wasn’t a U.S. citizen.
⁣
We posted this photo on the White House website the next day as our “photo of the day.” We also posted it on the White House Flickr photo stream on June 20, 2013, as one of the photographs in our monthly albums (for May 2013). The original caption: “Vice President Joe Biden talks with Lisa Monaco, Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism, in the Rose Garden of the White House, May 1, 2013.” ⁣
⁣
I used a Canon 5DM3 camera, with a 24-70mm lens, with exposure of 1/320 at f/5.6 at ISO 200.⁣ The original file was transferred to the National Archives on 1/20/2017.
⁣
Thanks to all those on Twitter who brought this to my attention last night. And to those who took the further step of replying on Truth Social with a “Fact Check,” and link to the photo on Flickr. They were then banned from Truth Social.⁣
⁣
I await Trump’s apology to President Biden and Lisa, and for misusing this photograph I made.⁣

=====
tfg is such an a-hole. Please hurry and Lock Him Up.

1. The Slobfather is an effin lying deceitful

Piece of shit.
Rec

[llmart]

4. There is nothing that piece of shit won't lie about.

We could fill an encyclopedia set with all the lies he's spewed.

[Stuart G]

11. THE ...'SLOBFATHER' is in a 'PIECE OF SHIT" THAT HE NEVER THOUGHT HE WOULD BE IN

HURRAY FOR OUR SIDE..!!! . ... :

[malaise]

21. That too my friend

😀😀

[spanone]

34. He's absolutely shameless...

He's shits shit.

[malaise]

37. Seriously

He’s a monster and that barely touches the surface

[Boomerproud]

2. Hit him with the truth Mr. Souza.

He put everything detail in that message.

[SergeStorms]

3. What a lying scumbag.

But every human being with more functional brain cells than can be counted on one hand already knows that.

I'm sure the MAGAts are gnashing their teeth about it though.

[Blue Owl]

5. K&R for exposure

And go fuck yourself tRump you fucking fat sack of shit

[sheshe2]

6. Thank you, iluvtennis.

Thanks for the facts. Pete Souza is one remarkably talented photographer. Horrifying that tfg makes it something dirty.

I have posted OPs about him. He is amazing.

[iluvtennis]

12. Just posted Pete Souza's facts. You're welcome for the post. n/t

[electric_blue68]

7. Trump is a bag of sewage. At least twitters Alerted Mr Souza

and commented back on TSocial.

Then Mr Souza give the correct info.

[riversedge]

8. k

[LakeArenal]

9. Someone gave him that picture. Trump is no researcher.

His cult makes up lies for dump to tell.

[iluvtennis]

13. + agree. n/t

[Alexander Of Assyria]

14. Artificial stupidity is more dangerous than artificial intelligence.

Politicians with Ivy League law degrees even abandon intelligence to embrace stupidity because….?

The spreading of artificial stupidity was given a dose of super serum by social media…and can now be manufactured and spread as easily as a virus.

Just need a super spreader host…

[LakeArenal]

22. Artificial stupid news from most news outlets.

[maxsolomon]

46. He likely gave it 10 seconds of thought.

None of those seconds involved understanding the context.

[mercuryblues]

10. To the cultists this just means Biden was planning this back then.

[TheRickles]

15. I'm surprised Trump didn't say he could read their lips in the photo, and it proves his point.

[LittleGirl]

16. Netflix has Pete's documentary

about his time in the White House. It was amazing. I laughed and had tears for those memories. Hubby bought me his book about his years too. It’s a keeper.

[Wednesdays]

17. OT, but that is a strange shutter speed to me

Maybe I'm not up-to-date about cameras, but I always learned that shutter speeds were 1 second, then 1/2 second, 1/4, 1/8, 1/15, 1/30, 1/60, 1/125, 1/250, 1/500, 1/1000, and so on.

1/320 is news to me.

[teamster633]

27. His shutter dial was set to 1/3 stops instead of 1/2 stops.

It's a more granular setting you can choose in the custom settings menu.

[Recycle_Guru]

18. I love it! Pete Souza always brings receipts

and never misses an opportunity to mock the orange skinned clown

[Wild blueberry]

19. Context

Thank you.

[iluvtennis]

20. Context ?? Here is tweet with tfg's post and Pete Souza's Instagram reply that I posted above.

Link to tweet

[Lonestarblue]

23. Trump isn't smart enough or savvy enough to find photos like this. I wonder who is really

his brain behind these kinds of lies. Does Stephen Miller still work for him, or has he gone on to become the stand in for Vampire of the Year?

[LymphocyteLover]

40. Yes, I was wondering that too

maybe some Russian troll passed it onto him on Pravda Central

[Joinfortmill]

24. Trump is a lying machine.

[Upthevibe]

25. Kick. N/T

[70sEraVet]

26. There is no ethics, morality, decency, or even laws that Orange Slug respects.

That's why he got along so well with foreign dictators.

[2naSalit]

28. EVIL INCARNATE.

[LymphocyteLover]

41. he is truly possessed by some evil demon

[Cha]

29. That MotherFucker! Lying POS Asshole.

Good on Pete Souza Calling Assface OUT.

TY

[Mblaze]

30. A lot of people misinterpret the concept of irony

I’m no expert but in my opinion, being banned from Truth Social for telling the truth is a great example of irony.

[niyad]

31. Stroke out already, you F'n, murdering, orange, RAPIST, TRAITOR**.

[Rural_Progressive]

32. Waiting for an apology from TFG

I certainly hope he has something else to occupy himself and brought snacks, that's going to be awhile.

[Calista241]

33. i have the exact same camera setup, and it's awesome.

[a kennedy]

35. tRump just lies, that's all he does. Lies, lies, and more lies.

[calimary]

36. Well? That bastard trump LIES. He LIES. Repeat: trump LIES.

So anything - and I do mean ANYTHING - that trump posts will inevitably be a lie, or based on a lie.

That's all anyone ever needs to know about the trump schmuck.

That whole "lips moving/lying" thing holds true as ever with him.

[usonian]

38. No good deed goes unpunished.

[czarjak]

39. Self-professed "great Christians" never are.

[Bo Zarts]

42. "The devil can cite scripture for his own purposes."

Shakespeare - “The Merchant of Venice”

[llashram]

43. everything

from this dangerous clown are deception and outright lies. 75 years on this mortal coil and we are at this stage in our 'growth' as a country. He must face justice.

[allegorical oracle]

44. Each day, I hope that verdicts against tfg rule him unfit to ever again hold public office. nt

[FakeNoose]

45. I wish that Pete Souza could sue Chump for copyright infringement of this photo

... but I guess he can't because his photos are in the archives at NARA. That would mean they are government property rather than privately owned.

[Niagara]

47. Donnie lies about the most asinine things.

I'm sure his cult followers are eating up his lies, like usual.

[aggiesal]

48. The Irony of ''Truth'' Social ...

They're Irony Deficient.
