Trump hired January 6th rally organizers to run failing 68 million dollar state fair
What was said
"In order to put on this celebration, Trump is using $68 million of taxpayer money. At least some of that money is being paid to a company called Event Strategies Incorporated. It's run by a group of Trump allies, and it's the same company responsible for organizing Trump's Ellipse Rally on January 6th."
Donald Trump awarded a $68 million no-bid contract to Event Strategies Incorporated, the same company that organized his January 6th Ellipse Rally, to produce the Great American State Fair for America's 250th birthday. The event has been plagued by failures including extreme heat with no shade, one ride, structural issues with the main arch leaking sealant foam, and temporary closure due to dangerous conditions. The revelation connects taxpayer-funded celebration planning to the organizers of one of the most controversial political events in recent American history.
