In our Let's Cut Some Spending series, ForAmerica chronicles the many ways Washington wastes YOUR tax dollars - and as you’ll see, the list is endless.

Today’s offering: $700,000 for White House tap-dancers who support Black Lives Matter!

According to Open The Books, the White House spent this amount on the group going back to 2021.

The Daily Mail had more details about the dance troupe:

The dancing troupe commissioned by First Lady Dr. Jill Biden for a Christmas video are Black Lives Matters activists who promote far-left policies, including defunding the police. 

Dorrance Dance, a tap dancing troupe from New York City, performed a 'playful' interpretation of The Nutcracker Suite through the halls of the White House. 

The group openly support controversial activist group Black Lives Matter as well as advocating on their website for 'prison abolition'. 

The 'take action for justice [and] change' section of Dorrance Dance encourages readers to sign petitions in support of defunding the Minneapolis Police Department, defund and redistribute the NYPD and 'get them out of public schools.'

Other suggested causes range from 'more protection for Black trans women' and 'stop the illegal export of riot equipment to the United States from the UK'.

It's no surprise that this White House would be so cozy with entertainers who hold such radical views.

But did that $700,000 come out of Joe or Jill Biden's pocket? Slim chance.

The American taxpayer is forever on the hook for something. In this case, in addition to spending money we don't have on things we don't need, the government also insults us by presenting far-left radicals to celebrate one of the greatest holidays.
