A nursing-home exec who defrauded the government of $38M paid MAGA lobbyists $1M to seek a Trump pardon—and Trump granted it.
While Americans struggle to afford their bills, Trump is focused on protecting his rich allies that have profited off the backs of everyday people.

The entourage of LEAR supporters are in the hallway claiming they can arrest people without the sheriff right now. This includes defendants.
It’s wild to listen to.
Time mark 1:50 PM for my future public information request.
I wonder if the cameras have sound here. 🤷🏼♀️

No seats left at the criminal hearing for the town hall this morning. The KCRCC showed up for this one.
Today we’ll be hearing a motion to dismiss from the defendants (LEAR security guards). The judge has also handed out jury instructions in the event that the case moves forward. #idpol

Media literacy is down, so to be clear, when the WSJ writes “Ultimately, the fact pattern Meta relies on to meet its conflicting objectives strains credibility” about your accounting practices and runs an accompanying flowchart, that is the equivalent of a 500-foot neon sign reading “FRAUD”
This feels like one of those stories you're going to look at a year from now and say to yourself, "Why didn't I move more of my portfolio into cash?" **
