This. It has always been this. A sitting American president did this. And because he did this, he should have been convicted and put behind bars. And the fact that we never held him accountable for these crimes will forever stain this country. And we may never recover from it.👇

I’m curious, if “eggs expensive under Biden” was newsworthy, how come “Trump intentionally caused every single fucking thing to be heinously expensive” isn’t a story?

Scoop with @dfriedman.bsky.social: Trump brought a statue of a slave owner out of storage & hired a contractor to build it a new pedestal in DC. Installing it took ONE day & cost $527K. The Gov't justified the high price tag w/ urgent need to finish by July 4. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Trump resurrected the statue of a slave owner. Its pedestal cost taxpayers $527k.
Contracting documents obtained by Mother Jones indicate the price was nearly double the government's estimate.
