Your tax dollars. And yes, for those asking. This is 100% an ethics violation. This is not de minimis use. Congress should also be required to sit through the ethics training ANNUALLY like other public employees. #stopwastingtaxdollars #votethemout

Canada needs to stop trying to emulate America. We already have a monopoly on the idiot market down here. Please let the USA deep south hold that title. We need a smart Canada to help us when we're done fixing our problem with fascism.

Analogy: Kid Trump runs into a room of people playing chess in a tournament. KT wants the prize but can't play chess. So he screams "dodgeball tournament" and hits a guy in the head with a ball. Claims he won, tries to take the prize. Then yells chess is illegal and calls everyone criminals. #FDT
