The White House, through an outside event production company called Harbinger, is soliciting corporate sponsors for this year’s Easter Egg Roll, which is prompting major concerns from ethics experts and shock from former White House officials from both parties.

The sponsorship offers range from $75,000 to $200,000, with the promise of logo and branding opportunities, according to a nine-page document sent to potential sponsors and obtained by CNN.

I want fucking sponsorships everywhere. I want ads on the eggs, President Mumps clothing, ads all over the White House, the lawn, on the Secret Service agents outfits, EVERYWHERE. If it's got space for an ad, it gets an ad.

I want sponsor breaks and the eggs named after sponsors.

Let's just straight up show how corporate America can just buy the White House.

Got it. The antichrist is doing Jesus things with a harbinger. I see only good results coming from this.
