The big cheese
Yes, someone gave Andrew Jackson, a 1400 pound block of cheese for Inauguration, which he left in the White House entrance for two years, and then let people come in and eat it, www.whitehousehistory.org/photos/paint….

Cry for private health insurance
โA single-payer universal health care system could cover every American, save more than 100,000 lives a year, and still cost $1 trillion less than the system it would replace, according to a new preprint study led by researchers at the Yale School of Public Health.โysph.yale.edu/news-article…
Dump site
I was thinking the other day how those not in DC (I'm not) aren't hit as clearly with how Trump has turned the White House grounds into something between construction site and waste dump. Genuinely upsetting. Far from the worst thing he's done but among the most tangible and graphic.

Life is hard
One of my closest friends lived like this. Recently, her son was accepted into a residential care home and she has some degree of freedom for the first time in 25 years. There were many time when I wondered if she’d make it out alive.
The burden is enormous, and they’re given bandaids.
Just like Reagan
Trump is living in a WW2 movie.

Pretty sure courts won’t find it binding, but still
Turns out this was satire but it sounded real enough!
I totally saw this coming, but it still pisses me off beyond belief. This man is the most evil, toxic person to ever walk the earth.
