🧵 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):

🧵Are y'all ready? It's almost debate time! I'll be live-tweeting my observations and fact-checking Newsom (as best I can in realtime) in this thread. #NEWSOMVSDeSANTIS
Heeere we go....
Hannity says he's moderating the debate, not part of it. Is that bad for DeSantis? #NEWSOMVSDeSANTIS
🚨 From press conference about #PaulKessler death - nine search warrants approved so far, 60 (?) plus witnesses interviewed
(Thread will continue)
Ventura County DA Nasarenko said that criminal charges weren't a foregone conclusion but they went where the evidence led
Nasarenko: 2 felony counts charged, special circumstance on each that the defendant personally inflicted great bodily injury.. the special circumstances elevate the charges to being strike-eligible. So if Alnaji is convicted of those they go toward 3 strikes and he can go to prison.
🧵I'm not sick yet of being right, but I'm sick of my work being ignored. Reading the 42-page Reedley biolab report right now and, like I said from DAY ONE it is connected to the CCP. AND the M.O. is the SAME as the M.O. in the Peter Kuo story AND the Chinese prostitution ring story.
As I read through the report I'll be hitting the highlights in this thread.
In case you didn't see the Peter Kuo story... I'll get into it more later, but here's the link. He operates tech incubators that steal U.S. intellectual property for China and takes entrepreneurs on business trips where he tries to get them in compromising positions
You know, it's a good thing this lab was in a Democrat Congressman's district - I wonder if a Republican would have been able to get the federal and state officials to be of assistance? I kinda doubt it.
Costa: Reedley's "the last place you would expect to find a case like this." That's the kind of place they're looking for
ALL of these women have Deputy Ryan Clinkunbroomer's blood on their hands, to varying extents. I know Kathryn used to support law enforcement and still says she does. But she went along with the witch hunt over the last few years and ESPECIALLY THIS YEAR going after Palmdale.
Deputies in the AV voted a few months ago to not go out on traffic stops after Luna, Barger, Solis, Horvath, Mitchell, Hahn all decided they'd go after a deputy who had a use of force "incident" instead of looking at the totality of circumstances. Luna and the AV command...
...made it known that if there was use of force during a traffic stop or other apprehension, that the deputy would be on unpaid leave and the assumption would be that they were in the wrong. So those deputies decided they'd do a bit of quiet quitting, as RedState reported here ⬇️
🧵 Since @GavinNewsom thinks we're stupid or have no memory, here's a refresher of his autocratic, illogical, unscientific power grabs during COVID. In no particular order:
