Olipa kerran hyvä haltia, joka loihti taikasauvallaan herkullisen jouluaterian kaikille metsän asukeille. Siinä oli tarjolla jos jonkinmoista herkkua. Oli rosollia, silakkaa, kinkkua, laatikoita, graavattua lohta ja... Jaha. Juu, tämähän ei ollutkaan joulusatu. Tämähän olikin ostoslista. Ja se on pitkä. No, onneksi kaikki ainekset herkulliseen jouluun saat. S-Marketista. Joulu on ruokaa.

Did Donald Trump steal $17 trillion? And I'm not exaggerating. Donald Trump said that he received $17 trillion from tariffs and from other countries. But as far as I know, the Treasury Department doesn't have this money. We know from the budget committees and the appropriation committees and the finance committees in the House and the Senate that they don't have $17 trillion. Now we're in a government shutdown caused by Donald Trump and these MAGA Republicans. So folks, if there's $17 trillion out there, not only does it solve everything, but it improves everything. It makes everybody's life So much better. Look, we would really be in a golden age if there's $17 trillion. It would help the farmers. It would help health care for everybody.
It would help education for everybody. Remember when Donald Trump talked about those Doge rebate checks for $5,000 or the tariff rebate checks? Heck, baby, we give like extra dividends. If there's $17 trillion out there, let's give it to the people, right? I mean, this is what the talking point is from Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans and J.D. Vance. They keep on saying that they've been so great that they have $17 trillion and they're somehow connecting that to the shutdown, which is kind of counterintuitive to me because if they've got $17 trillion, that's the solve. Here, this is what, just to show you, this is Donald Trump saying it again. He says it every day, but here, play this clip.
And we have over $17 trillion, Albert. Do you believe these numbers? So Biden had less than a trillion for four years. We have over $17 trillion for essentially eight months. Pretty amazing.
Wow, $17 trillion in eight months. Look, that's great. But where is it? Where's the money?
Did Trump really claim he brought in $17 trillion and where is that money?
Is it in his own bank accounts? I don't know. I'm going to call in the Democratic ranking member of the House Oversight Committee who's just been crushing it there, Congressmember Robert Garcia. I want to talk about your other work, bringing out some additional Epstein file batches. I want you doing great work. That social media account you're running is amazing. But this is, I think, a serious oversight issue. $17 trillion is apparently missing right now, and we're in a government shutdown. Trump keeps saying he's got $17 trillion.
Where did it go? Who the hell knows? I mean, first of all, Donald Trump is living in a fantasy land. And if there is $17 trillion somewhere, the government doesn't know about it. None of our committees have access to it. Treasury has no idea what the hell he's talking about.
Why do House budget and finance committees say they don’t have $17 trillion?
And so you're absolutely right. We're in a government shutdown right now. Donald Trump could actually reopen the government back up, extend health care subsidies, fix America's public schools, provide some subsidies that should lower the cost of goods across this country. But we know that Donald Trump is a liar. He's either a liar or he stashed away some money somewhere in some magical way. And there's even more corruption happening. And so, look, the media needs to also get on the game here. Donald Trump is claiming that there's 17 trillion dollars somewhere. Why is he being asked the question of where that money is every single minute of the day? And so this this man is the most corrupt person to obviously ever be president.
He lies. He steals.
How could $17 trillion change the government shutdown and public services?
He cheats. Now there's apparently $17 trillion somewhere that nobody knows about. And so we've got to ask the questions. And I think that at this moment during the shutdown, the fact that Donald Trump wants to claim that things are getting better for the American public is a joke.
