Pennsylvania lawmakers spent $2 million on food over 2.5 years
🚨 Democrat Senator Vince Hughes from Philadelphia spent almost $80,000 just on catered Tuesday lunches
He bought coconut chicken tenders with mango apricot sauce, baked salmon, boneless pork chops and assorted cheesecakes for himself and staff. $80,000 worth….
“On at least 7 of these days, Vince Hughes also got reimbursed through per diems for meals, which Senate policy prohibits”
“But here's the thing. There's no actual limit on food spending at the Capitol, as long as it serves a legislative purpose, however you want to interpret that — Experts say lawmakers should be more careful with their food spending”
But it doesn’t stop there, I found a bunch more examples of this insane spending on food that taxpayers are paying for
Sen. Rosemary Brown spent $11,100 on a hosted brunch
Congress House leadership and conferences spent over $122,000 on Chick-fil-A alone in recent years
California politicians burned through campaign donations on luxury hotel stays, overseas trips and high-end meals. In one year tracked, over $1 million went to fancy restaurants and entertainment like steak dinners, wine and more
Michigan lawmakers and officials received close to $500,000 in free lobbyist-paid food and drinks in a single year
Members of Congress used leadership PAC funds for lavish meals at spots like Joe’s Seafood Prime Steak & Stone Crab and Charlie Palmer Steak. They spent tens of thousands on upscale seafood, steaks and more in just a few months

IF YOU HAVEN'T HEARD WHAT ACTRESS AND FILMAKER JUSTINE BATEMAN SAID ABOUT REP. RASHIDA TLAIB - YOU SHOULD.
Here’s the full text of Justine Bateman’s Twitter/X response:
"These people are ridiculous.
They have lost all tethers to a sense of self. Their entire identity now relies on this treasonous hate of America. They make up fantasies of how horrible America never was to justify their need to “fight tyranny.” They have no identity but this. And they cling to it with a death grip, because they have nothing else.
None of it is true. Not the fantasy about America about which she is shrieking, not her identity of believing herself to be some “hero” in a movie about an oppressive government, and not the resulting congress-free, senate-free, President-free, childish (and completely chaotic) future she sees for this country.
She is an infant.
She and others like her will not get their way. Not even close. If you have a modicum of common sense, it’s time to let your line in the sand about tolerance be made known.
Myself, I have a limit to tolerance.
I have a limit to patience.
I know there is a limit to free speech.
If your plan is to tear down the United States of America, if your plan is treason, I will not tolerate you, I will have zero patience for you, and I will not defend your right to free speech."
Taxpayer-salaried Rep. Seth Moulton didn’t say a WORD when his state of Massachusetts issued a CDL to the Haitian illegal who mowed down a Pennsylvania state trooper two weeks ago - just one of countless Americans who’ve lost their lives to illegal aliens.
But he’ll spew profanity and go to war for citizens of other countries who violate our immigration laws and target our federal officers.
Because that’s who he cares about. Not you.
🚨 IT'S OFFICIAL: Lindsey Graham's sister Darline Graham Nordone officially named interim US Senator from South Carolina after her brother's passing
She just walked up to the podium to accept it 🇺🇸
"Lindsey has always been there for me. Now, I will be there for him."
The Odyssey gets a racial rewrite while Moana must be “authentic.” Funny how a culture should be respected and celebrated…unless it’s white.
And there’s a reason for all of it.
