Adam Schiff: Celebrating Swamp Day in Washington DC.

Link to tweet

In Washington, DC, Trump celebrated Swamp Day by:

1.) Making July 4th an ode to himself;

2.) Diverting $2.5 million in Park funds to pay for it;

3) Taking $750,000 in fireworks from a donor; and

4) Postponing tariffs on China the same day, as the donor wanted.

Happy 4th!
