Aww, tiny puppet man thinks he's a hockey player.
Get shifaced, eyes go back to normal.
I don't know about you, but if I was recorded getting trashed at a hockey game during a work trip, I'd be fired immediately.
Why?
My work trips usually involved my bosses buying me beers
We are told that we represent the brand on work trips. It's also a state institution with lots of federal grants, so we can't do anything to make it seem like we are wasting taxpayer money partying.
He should be arrested and made to pay back all the cost of all his leisure activities that he has enjoyed at taxpayer expense.
It's kind of weird seeing him with an expression other than the one he has in literally every other photo of him
I am outraged that the hockey players would associate with a traitor actively betraying the US, seeking to kill the republic in all but name and fix elections for the worst people in the country to rule by unending reigns of terror, literally modeling themselves on Hitler.
They know or should know what he is doing too. Those hockey players are traitors, ignorance is no excuse at this point, and I bet they know, how can you not? Fixing elections is unforgivable, and an existential threat to the republic and all of it's people. They should be shunned. Ostracized.
no consequences
I think hockey has a maga problem.
Gotta be real chief, I'm gonna oppose the crowd here and ask it: What's the big deal here?
Like, its definitely not a good look, but is this really significant enough to devote any mental energy to?
Just garden variety corruption: partying after flying over on a taxpayer-funded private plane.
Kinda like seeing ICE Barbie flying around and doing cosplay and weird videos on horses and later hearing about her 70 million dollar bang plane.
This kind of waste, fraud and abuse won't make much of a dent in the budget and won't really change the everyday experience for most Americans, but.....still. It's infuriating to watch. It's almost like they are rubbing our noses in it.
That's kinda what I'm trying to get at. Like yeah, it sucks to see, but between being worried about this v.s. an additional 10% tariff globally, one of those will impact my life much more substantially.
All these things need to be talked about. Fraud and possible illegal use of funds can’t be ignored because there is a more significant problem.
People need to know all this stuff, it will help turn some of their supporters away and if there ever is a miracle, there might be some accountability in future administrations.
The FBI being utilized to help the party steal elections is something more substantial, and that's what's going on. So yes, any way to damage the cynical piece of shit traitor betraying the republic and it's people should be used.
Well, when people are having their health care ripped away, after Donvict had lots of other government employees lose their jobs for no reason and people are having an affordability crisis, as Donvict's illegal tariffs cost them an additional $1000 last year, seeing this little troll flying off to Italy and doing this is a real optics problem.
Sure, does this in particular really change anyone's life? No.
Yeah, how is this "drawing outrage" from folks? I can see it as a dumbass using his position's power to force his way inside an event, but the article didn't seem to indicate that was the reason for the outrage. Do they care that it was 'wasting taxpayer money' on a business trip that clearly wasn't?
uh, oops. after realizing there was a jump in the text that my browser didn't load: yes, the 'outrage' is about using money for personal reasons. I didn't remember the sessions firing, so yay, we have precedent! (as if it would ever be used)
