🧵 As I go through @GOP's financials since my exclusive report last year... @GOPChairwoman why are you still spending so much on limo services? We've only got $7 million on hand, yet you spent $256,635 on limos since 10/21/22???

And about those floral arrangements - these are NOT marked as being part of any fundraiser events. Just floral arrangements. More than $70,000. WHY?

And let's get to your DRY CLEANING. You are very well-paid. So why are donors paying for your dry cleaning? $8,750.

And then we have "Media Preparation" a/k/a doing your hair and makeup for TV or events. Many of us do our own because we can't afford hair & makeup artists and our employers don't pay for it. Or, people PAY THEIR OWN. (Novel idea.) $22,389. So we're up to $30k for you, tax free!

Granted this $615,000 in donor mementos is not quite the $17 million total of the 6 years prior, but it's still a MASSIVE AMOUNT. The best donor memento is, IDK, winning?

Some curious things on office supplies, Ronna. Over $3,000 to an artist in Texas who does custom watercolors. I'm sure they're lovely; I'm just. not sure donors needed to pay for them. And $4k for coffee supplies for the office?

And $43k in Instacart to the office? That's not including all of the little lunches and muffins and cupcakes billed to "catering" or the food billed to "travel expenses." Does anyone buy their own lunch around there?

Bergdorf Goodman was listed as a "Travel Expense" and $1600 at Carhartt for Office Supplies... ummmm....

Something still stinks with RNC expenses. 💩 I'm happy for Ronna or her lackey Emma to correct the record.

In case you missed my EXCLUSIVE report last year (@GOPChairwoman is still pissed about this; her minions are still talking s**t abt me):
