Scavenger hunt, gov’t-edition— If you visit a USG facility (base exchange, gift shop), please check if they’re selling any Trump merchandise. Yes/no reports both useful. Photos that show proof of location a huge plus. DMs open. Also z_everson@protonmail.com or 202.804.2744 (Signal/mobile). 6/

Good catch, @kendeuel.bsky.social! Slight difference here in that NPS stores are run by contractors, while CGXs are gov't managed. 7/
I don't want to yuck anyone's yum, but at least as far back as 2017, Shenandoah National Park was featuring Trump wines in the two main dining lodges. Though I do think due to actual market forces, the concessionaire rotated them out a season or two later before the end of his first term.
