At a time when the U.S. Department of Agriculture was slashing aid to schools and food banks in the name of fiscal responsibility, newly confirmed Secretary Brooke Rollins elected to spend thousands of dollars to purchase massive banners of President Donald Trump, one of which now hangs outside her department’s headquarters in Washington, DC, according to documents obtained by Salon.
In May, visitors to the nation’s capital noticed two, 31-foot additions to the USDA’s building on Independence Avenue, ostensibly intended to mark its 163rd anniversary: a banner featuring President Abraham Lincoln, who signed the bill creating the department, and another featuring Trump, both featuring the tagline: “Growing America Since 1862.”
Give that photojournalist all the awards.
Go team hamberder!
Shortly before noon on 7 July 1994, Kim Il Sung collapsed from a heart attack at his residence in Hyangsan, North Pyongan. After the heart attack, Kim Jong Il ordered the team of doctors who were constantly at his father’s side to leave and arranged for the country’s best doctors to be flown in from Pyongyang. After several hours, the doctors from Pyongyang arrived, but despite their efforts to save him, Kim Il Sung died at 02:00 am PST on 8 July 1994, aged 82.[102] After the traditional Confucian mourning period, his death was declared 34 hours later

Mao’s policies resulted in a vast number of deaths, with tens of millions of victims of famine, political persecution, prison labour and executions, and his regime has been described as totalitarian.
In 1976, Mao died of a heart attack.
Only a matter of time…

LOL. Yeah, this is some dictatorship shit, but in the absolute cheapest way possible. No carving, no painting, just a temporary banner that I am sure will not weather well.
Totally not cult behavior at all.
Dictator portraits are now available.
