    This is gonna be what sinks Trumps reelection bid, once all of the corruption comes to light he and the Republican party is sunk.

    now I see why McConnell and everybody else in the Senate has been silent they are all grabbing the money.

    What should be especially falling is that they don't even have the shame to adequately cover their tracks.

    The biggest bombshell that will come after the Trump presidency is not gonna be collusion it's gonna be the naked money grab that his election started.

    Problem is there is no enforcement right now. Trump selected the DOJ lead, the Republican Senate approved him, and we’re stuck with it.

    Trump and Republicans can run around and do whatever they want and are flaunting it. Until the public removes them from office and demands changes to the laws, we’re stuck with it.

    They can be voted out and this is an issue that will penetrate the electorate at a very digestible level.

    Amazes me how so many of trump's circle find it so easy to outright lie to the American public...

    btw, trump is spending the day at his golf course, trump's 195th day at a Trump golf club and 261st day at a Trump property as president. Keep that in mind when you read this article...

    Trump gets millions from golf members. CEOs and lobbyists get access to president

    And...

    Did Secretary of State Pompeo Made Security Detail to
    Get His Chinese Takeout and Pick Up His Large Adult Son ?


    details as provided by the whistle blower;


    In April, for example, an agent was asked to pick up Chinese food—without Pompeo in the car. The whistleblower said this led agents to complain that they are now serving as “UberEats with guns,” which has created a buzz within the department, according to multiple congressional aides who cited the whistleblower.

    On another occasion, the whistleblower told aides, a Diplomatic Security special agent was given the job of picking up the Pompeo family dog from a groomer.

    Diplomatic Security was asked by a person in Pompeo’s office to pick up his adult son from Union Station in Washington and bring him to the family home.

    [Secretary Pompeo] takes wife on ... trips, has separate meetings, requiring control officers, motor pool assets, security, and time. It was especially brazen during the shutdown when people were actually called into the embassy while furloughed. Just one more thing killing morale at the department.”
