The East Wing and Trump's Ballroom: What Trump Said in July vs What's Happening in October

Anyone upset with the redesign of the Cracker Barrel logo or who's singing at the Super Bowl but not the destruction of The White House can go GFY.

Food shortages in poor communities leads to ppl engaging in survival tactics. The State frames this as senseless crime. They criminalize poor, hungry folks for trying to live. They send in troops and put folks in prisons, lining the pockets of private prison owners.

Wash, rinse, repeat.

Health insurance costs jumped for workers & employers in 2025.

This will get worse if the GOP refuses to extend ACA subsidies.

Meanwhile, the seven largest health insurance companies made a combined $71B in profits in 2024.

Still not sure we need Medicare for All?

FYI :“Destruction of federal property is a federal crime. 18 U.S. Code § 1361 defines the crime as willfully injuring or committing any depredation against U.S. government property. If the damage exceeds $1k it is a felony with a fine, up to ten years in prison or both.”

Awaiting law enforcement.

I’ve reintroduced fish sticks into my life over the past year or so. One of my better decisions in these trying times.

Now why would this all be needed if they weren’t planning on hurting Americans?

Senator Chris Larson @senchrislarson.bsky.social · 1d

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase.

The President is building an army to attack his own country.

Could someone explain to me like I'm the simpleton I obviously am...

How even the most ORNATE BALLROOM imaginable could cost TWO HUNDRED & FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS to construct?

It's a fucking BALLROOM.

Are there secret hallways lined in PLATINUM?

Seriously, WHERE THE FUCK IS THE MONEY GOING?

One word: Profits

When healthcare is for profit, success is measured in dollars instead health outcomes.

Every company involved wants to increase their profits, so the additional costs are passed on to you.

Insurance isn’t healthcare, and healthcare shouldn’t be for profit.
