From Smapti’s link:
That’s fraud. It’s basically the definition of fraud, making a statement, which is false, which you know is false, having others believe it is true, and getting those others to give you money based on the false statement.
Only if it’s one of the upscale ones that has an in-store McDonald’s.
Ours used to have an Auntie Anne’s and I had no idea how great I had it.
Is that the pretzel place?
Yep. We didn’t always go there, but we could smell the pretzels throughout the entire store. Mm-mm!
Ewww! You could catch some nasty spine-eating bacteria from that!
Wait…what??
I don’t think Elvis’ sweat-towels went for that.
It’s the equivalent of buying your own books to boost the NYT listing. Or, she owed him 100k for following her wish to tank the economy over the debt limit. I’d like to see her have to account for the origins of the cash she’ll pay.
Or you know, she just had really chapped lips, and the Capitol gift shop was out.
She also gets to attend a dinner.
Well, if she can’t kiss Trump’s ass directly, this is the next best thing.
If it really were about integrity, the news Representative Swalwell just released this statement regarding the Bipartisan Ethics Committee’s finding on his Twitter account would get Swalwell reinstated to the committee. I’m not holding my breath.
I can’t think of a law that was broken. However, this story was at least partly promoted to raise donations for the YIT Foundation and anybody who donated money to these bozos would have grounds for a class action lawsuit for fraud.
I think I just chundered a bit! Pictures of McCarthy’s chapstick lubricating Trumps sphincter, and…no, no, no, I shall not go there.
When I saw that in my Twitter feed, I immediately posted:
An unkind person might mention why she needed Chapstick so much.
How did chapstick even come into the equation?
Guy: “Mr. McCarthy, you got anything you’d like to donate for charity?”
McCarthy: “I don’t know, let’s see. [fumbles through pockets] Oh here you go. [throws half used Chapstick at guy].”
Seriously, who even thinks like that?
The cuckoos have fled the nest and now they are just shitting on everyone.
And pushing out the eggs of normal politicians for their own cuckoo babies. Or something, I’m not a bird-ologist!
Oh my.
A Republican-led investigation on Wednesday accused Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton of committing multiple crimes in office — including felonies — during an extraordinary public airing of scandal and alleged lawbreaking that plunged one of the GOP’s conservative stars into new political and legal risk.
Well, if it’s anything like the other laws he’s been accused of breaking, it’ll be years and years before he sees the inside of a courtroom.
