We’ll starve
Records obtained by ProPublica indicate that food banks across the country were expecting more than 27 million pounds of chicken, 2 million gallons of milk, 10 million pounds of dried fruit and 60 million eggs that never arrived.
Trump Canceled 94 Million Pounds of Food Aid. Here’s What Never Arrived.
ProPublica obtained records from the Department of Agriculture that detail the millions of pounds of food, down to the number of eggs, that never reached food banks because of the administration’s cut...

This resonates with me.
It’s far from the most important thing, morally right now, or in terms of the human stakes, but the ballroom thing is really breaking my brain.

Lots of US companies have done lots of dreadful things to Americans. But the symbolism of paying to destroy the White House is hard to top.
This is who is paying for the destruction of the White House East Wing, per @wsj.com

Mike Johnson lies shamelessly on CNN: "We have many ideas on how to bring down the cost of healthcare, to continue to do that, and we've already demonstrated it in the working families tax cut. We had real reforms to Medicaid that have brought down the cost and saved about $185b for taxpayers."
Trump only pretends to be on good terms with enough people to fill that ballroom. I don’t think many will want to attend his garish, pretentious balls. They did this crap back in the Middle Ages, when ballroom dancing was very popular. Foolish, selfish, and bound to backfire.
Us Citizens Not Safe in America!
#ICE is.the new Gestapo!
ICE/DHS, FBI, and local police on horseback, along with a secret police force in black tactical gear, were witnessed violently confronting the relatives of individuals abducted during a raid at a "Family Day" rodeo in Idaho. Among those who have gone missing are children and U.S. citizens.
#Ballroom insanity also criminal!
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.
From whom?!
Trump says destroying the east wing to build his giant $250,000,000 ego room is “getting incredible reviews”

A reminder that creepy racist insurrectionist pedo defender Mike Johnson is continuing to block the swearing in of Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva even though she was elected on Sept. 23rd. She would be the 218th vote needed for the Epstein Files discharge petition.
2025 The Year Trump Stole Christmas. 🎄🤶🧑‍🎄
Bravo! Standing against lies.
A reminder, trump isn't innocent. He didn't go to trial and a jury found him not guilty of the charges against him.

He is 100% guilty and the only reason he is not in jail is because he was elected president. I don't think taxpayers should give him $250 million for that.
#COLA for Social Security recipients should be 5% or more since #Trump continues to rob some of the poorest among us. #SNAPSWIPE

SNAP will run out of money in two weeks. As a former food stamp recipient, I know how hungry you get by the end of the month. This is cruel and unnecessary, and anyone who supports this should be voted out. #hunger #SNAP www.boston.com/community/lo...

Maybe this is obvious to everyone but…why does the White House need a ballroom? It has enough space for state dinners, no? Is this for dances? Weddings? Storing classified documents?

Just confused so the reason would be helpful thx
19 years ago today, Amy Winehouse released “Rehab.”
By now, it should be clear to your pet rock that #DonaldTrump cares nothing for the working class or anyone else who isn’t dripping in diamonds. We don’t have a President. We’ve been duped.
