“No no – the egg thing was for getting rid of Biden, we’re done talking about that now” – The Trump Admin, probably.
What do you mean “probably”? I can look up the exact quote if you need but what you said was pretty damn close to precisely what he said!?!
Oh wow, I didn’t know they actually said it! Lol, I tried to satire but didn’t go far enough 😆
When they go low… we bust through the floor to go even lower! (My bastardization of a quote from Michelle Obama.)
When they go low, start digging
When they go low, start waffle stomping.
Sixty percent of Americans living paycheck to paycheck and this twat is building a gaudy af stupid ballroom
You know they passed a law dramatically reducing social services and driving up the national debt with tax breaks for the rich.
Par for the course. Thank a right-wing neighbor.
He is turning the Whitehouse into Versailles
Choppy chop!
Called the White House State Ballroom, the addition will be approximately 90,000 total square feet, which is significantly larger than the 55,000-square-foot White House as it stands now.
The ballroom will be bigger than the entire White House by ~35,000 square feet.
Room for infinite number of Big Macs and large fries.
Whenever a Republican pretends to care about the national debt, they’re lying.
Trumps is paying out of his pocket and an
donationbribe from an unknown source.
My grocery bill is much higher than pre-pandemic. I don’t even notice the egg prices.
me neither. because i don’t buy 'em anymore. i don’t even go past 'em in the store.
You should do something to cheer yourself up. Ever tried to dance a minuet?
Sadly they are still some of the cheapest breakfast options. 3 eggs is about 1.50 for a meal.
1.50 buys you enough oats to feed you for the entire day
Yeah. While eggs have gone up a lot as a percentage, they’re still pretty cheap as an overall portion I n of the grocery bill.
Egg prices doubling isn’t as bad as all the items that cost 5x as much as eggs going up 30%.
Now that’s the kind of sensible spending that people voted for
“Fiscal Conservatism”
When you squint you’ll see that phrase is actually “fascist consolidation”
Doge here, looks like we are cutting USAID now we have money for a ballroom and a Qatari jet
never gets old
When does the leopard get full from eating so many faces?
That’s the neat thing. It doesn’t.
That’s why it looks like it’s for diabetus.
Release the Epstein files!
I seem to recall that the White House is considered a historic building, and renovations need to be approved by Congress. It’s actually been a problem, because there’s a lot of wiring and plumbing issues that need to be addressed. Was this somewhere in the Big Murder Bill?
Oh, right, I forgot about what Administration we’re dealing with. Of course he’s going ahead with it.
The supplier that supplies eggs for Aldi was found price manipulating and abusing chickens. Meanwhile local farmers were selling much better tasting eggs where you could see the chickens out in the fields happily foraging and unafraid of humans AND for lower prices.
The local farmer can’t supply eggs in the quantities Aldi needs, so Aldi prefers a simple supply chain with a couple of contracts with large-scale producers. Same as the other national/regional chains. Government stopped enforcing anti-monopoly laws, all the retailers consolidated to drive out the independents; the six remaining grocery chains forced all their suppliers to consolidate to national-scale production; the food packagers prefer to deal with factory-scale farms… We could really use a little competition in our ‘free’ markets.
Always support your local production! It’s better than feeding the mega-corporations that have an oligopoly in basically every single industry and market.
The biggest issue is that these “too big to fail” conglomerates are willing to take a loss to kill off local businesses, and then raise prices when they’re the only option you have left.
I’m leaving in half an hour to go to the Saturday market to get me some fresh free range (although not completely organic - near impossible if you want healthy birds) eggs. Cheaper than in the States and cheaper than Aldi, AH, Jumbo, all the big chains. I can see the farm on the map, with chickens outside, at least when google took that photo.
0.5c off if you reuse your old container. It’s possible, just difficult to overcome the big chains. And yes I’m dripping in privilege but I moved continents to get it it.
Good job! You’re doing your best!
We wouldn’t need to move continents to do it if we hadn’t destroyed the environment so dramatically :/
Oh look. Epstein distractions.
200 millions dollars for a fucking ballroom??? Is it made of gold? Ok, it’s Trump so with his shitty tastes, yeah it probably is at least plated…
It’s made of scam. Hire some discount jank company to do the job for 1/5 of that and pocket the rest.
650 people… adults or childs?
Teenage girls I assume
The childs are for eating.
I don’t think that’s what Trump and his friend Epstein were doing to the kids.
