Some of the frivolous September purchases made under Secretary Pete Hegseth's stewardship include a $98,329 Steinway & Sons grand piano for the Air Force chief of staff's home, $5.3 million for Apple devices such as the new iPad, and an astronomical amount of shellfish, including $2 million for Alaskan king crab and $6.9 million worth of lobster tail.
RFK Jr. says you can more easily afford groceries if you start eating liver instead of beef. If grocery prices are cheaper like Trump says, then why is his administration constantly telling you cut corners or go without?

Trump doesn't care about fraud, he's the king of fraud.
Dude he just fired Kristi for doing something Stacey Abrams did, and Abrams did it for 2 Billion dollars.
You, Clownshack, you don't care about fraud.
As if the "troops" ever got a taste.

You got TrumpRot, he's eaten your brain.
You know I'm no fan of Hegseth. And there's PLENTY to hit him on. He's disgraceful.
But paying for lobster and steak is not some frivolous DoD expanse. Same with ice cream and doughnuts.
It's a standard way of taking care of troops and giving them a nice meal to boost morale"often during a long deployment. Like the USS Ford that is gone for 11 months:
And there are ~4,500 personnel just on that one ship. And there are many ships deployed right now"and they have been for much of the last year.
A good meal is one of the few nice and celebratory things for them to look forward to.
They're missing countless birthdays, weddings, funerals. Deployments are hard. Food is often a rare highlight. And not frivolous.
