To be fair I don’t think I could handle working in the Trump White House unless I was completely fucked up on benzos

@NBCNews: The White House Medical Unit had “severe and systemic problems” with their pharmacy operations and provided health care to ineligible staffers before the Biden administration, according to a scathing inspector general report. https://t.co/AcDXSz0rpe

I feel that pervitin would be more "on-brand" for the Trump White House.

LSD, it might almost make sense.

Explains the ketamine for sure

Mike Pence is online!

Blame the good doctor Jackson for all those prescriptions.

Get up at 6am, say the mantra,

Annnd, GO!

Waging War On Drugs by trying to take them all.

So is it possible the white house cocaine story from last year was a baggie the trump admin left and didn't clean up?

laurianw.bsky.social•409 days ago

And the disturbing part is in a house of sociopath addicts are the status quo.

Once again, see NAZI Germany

Channeling Snorty McOrange’s Addarall thru intermediaries maybe

I was in the hospital once and they had me so blasted on Ativan that I had absolutely no memory of what happened to me for a couple of days.

So yeah, I can see where that would help.

maliburek.bsky.social•409 days ago

Hell, I feel that way at my current job not in the White House. Stupid end stage capitalism.

sashiebgood.bsky.social•409 days ago

Right? At least Brave New World had Soma. It's no wonder everyone is on fentanyl these days

The one thing that sucked about being Gen X is we were born too late for Quaaludes but just in time for HIV. How messed up was that?

derek.bsky.social•409 days ago

Barely made it through his presidency without considering the same to just cope.

deesevere.bsky.social•409 days ago

I can see the utility of Adderall. Benzos do make you chill but also stupid and forgetful. The original 45 win (+ other stressors)gave me really bad panic attacks so was on them for years, and it's really disturbing how many holes my memory has 🙁

I would need LSD

wiredog.bsky.social•409 days ago

Oh god no. Can you imagine being an hour in and Trump walks in? Worst trip ever.

legendinmyownmind.bsky.social•407 days ago

Depends where you are going. Actually, I was an attorney at a Trump deposition and it was kind of like you were on something.😂

shawnconnery.bsky.social•409 days ago

In all fairness, this explains so much about the huge crowds Sean Spicer kept seeing.

angel-ponders.bsky.social•409 days ago

At this point I’ll need Bezos just to keep up on Trump news itself

mwgore.bsky.social•409 days ago

fair point

naughtykyuubi69.bsky.social•409 days ago

I can see the staff being completely effed up on a drug cocktail mixed with a lil bit o' Jack D's to keep them sane enough not to jump out the window

nooneletgo.bsky.social•409 days ago

Question is, how fucked up would you need to be, and on what, to take the job in the first place?

malaclypse.bsky.social•409 days ago

It was clear at the time they were all death-of-Stalin levels of intoxicated 24/7.

danielsand.bsky.social•409 days ago

You do a line with Jr or you are not allowed into the cabinet room for a meeting.

calizaybak.bsky.social•409 days ago

I would have to have all my blood replaced with tincture of opium.

jaymarose.bsky.social•409 days ago

Takes a little TLC,
Thorazine
Lorazepam &
Clonadine.

leemeade.bsky.social•409 days ago

Yup. That’s one reality that needs altering.

hammeringman.bsky.social•409 days ago

I'm no trump fan, but how much has this gone on in other administrations and just not been reported?

jefft.bsky.social•409 days ago

"had systemic problems" is a very polite way to say "shelled out insane amounts of prescription drugs for obvious recreational abuse to thousands of ineligible people... And the cherry on top was they overpaid by orders of magnitude to only use name brands."

abracadocious.bsky.social•409 days ago

Shout-out to the individual with the foresight to save taxpayer money by receiving 2000 generic Zolpidem 5mg instead of the name-brand Ambien.

jefft.bsky.social•409 days ago

Lol fair, it's like the tiniest part of their overall looting operation.

It does strike me as a little extra evidence this was recreational: people basically walking up and saying "give me Vicodin" rather than a doctor writing a prescription.

notorious.janedmercer.com•409 days ago

i have good news for you!

aleggra.bsky.social•409 days ago

You have to think like a woman — flirt & flatter Trump while going behind his back, snitching to all the Dems & reporters.

Plus, drugging his Coke machine with as many mind altering drugs you can get your hands on 😊

differentmatt.bsky.social•409 days ago

I'm not mad that the Trump WH docs were handing out Ambien like it was Halloween candy. I'm mad that they weren't slipping it into the cafeteria food and water jugs, then turning up the building heat and bringing everyone complimentary pillows.

mike2000.bsky.social•409 days ago

Don't sleep on Provigil. I had a prescription for two years. It's pretty amazing.
