Ben Meiselas 0:04
That right there is from the city of Sumy in Ukraine. I share that video with you to show you that there's a lot going on in this world that we need to be paying attention to. But what Donald Trump is focused on while you have international affairs events like that taking place within the past two weeks and as you have Americans starving here in the United States is Donald Trump threw a great Gatsby Halloween-themed party today. The theme was called A Little Bit of Partying Never Killed Nobody, a roaring 20s theme party. And you can see what they were doing right here, an entertainer at Trump's Halloween party. Here you have dancers surrounding Donald Trump and his cabinet party. at the halloween party at mar-a-lago i mean they're quite literally laughing at you as they starve you to death i mean you see it right here trump cabinet members marco rubio and others here are more guests heading into the event meanwhile at mar-a-lago tonight you have this stuff uh taking place and look i'm all for you know uh a good time you know i'm all for you know a party here and there you know sure but like you're the supposed to be the leader of the president of the united states there's a government shutdown

The food bank lines in cities across the United States have never been this long ever. You had these SNAP benefits almost about to expire. You have 20 million Americans about to get kicked off of health care. Americans can't afford their rent right now. Nothing is affordable here. And that's what you're doing. A roaring 20s theme party. A little bit of partying never killed nobody.

How was Trump’s Mar‑a‑Lago Great Gatsby Halloween party depicted and why does it matter?

Ben Meiselas 1:42
As Your theme, you know, and the Trump family members were literally dressed as money. Eric Trump's family, they dressed as money while they mocked the peaceful No Kings protests. It's just that's not what we want as the leader, I think, of this country. Just putting it bluntly. Here's Donald Trump with some of his guests enjoying the return to Mar-a-Lago. Also this morning, Donald Trump was making a bunch of just very kind of odd posts. He was posting these photos with him and Erica Kirk. I'm not really sure why he was posting this. This event happened a long time ago, but it seems that it was in response to J.D. Vance's photos with Kirk's widow surfacing. These photos right here, more of these photos, just strange.
Ben Meiselas 2:27
I mean, bizarre way to like hug somebody. The whole thing is just... Odd. What's going on with this MAGA movement? More posts from Donald Trump today attacking black judges, black New York attorney generals, black politicians. You know, more of the same from Donald Trump just trying to divide us. I don't even want to read his social media posts because they're so disgusting and despicable and filled with lies. Then, of course, you have the post that he makes about, oh, we found out again that the cartels are putting bounties on ICE agents. And the president of Mexico says, we have no clue what you're talking about. Share with us the information if you believe that cartels have put bounties on ICE agents.
Ben Meiselas 3:14
And let's be cooperative and collaborative. But, of course, the Trump regime never shares information. You recall what they did. Two weeks ago, right in the Chicago area, regarding this claim about the bounties on ICE agents, they took a video of young black men and they manipulated the text on the video. Then they posted it from the official Homeland Security account. So the actual text on the video was, you've seen what we can do. Don't say something that you can't finish, Iran. We already united. We all stand with America. We want all the smoke. That was right around the time the B-2 bomber struck those. Said they were striking them nuclear facilities in Iran, but didn't really destroy them. And Iran is able to keep most of its nuclear capabilities.
Ben Meiselas 4:05
But Donald Trump declared success just like the way he lies about everything. But anyway, there was like a trend at that time where TikTokers would post, we're coming for you, Iran. It was actually like a patriotic message by these young black men.
