Millions for toilet paper, but not a cent for two worthless PR positions.

I'm glad they are going to do individual votes for toilet paper and trash liners. Jeff is one heck of a President.

Barr's FEMA update with the financial report should be interesting!

Of course it's covered by FEMA! It's a disaster.
