This is Linda Martin. A few years ago, the FBI seized her life savings: $40,200.
The kicker: She was never charged with a crime—and the government couldn’t tell her why it took her money.

ICYMI, today the WH Press Secretary announced she and her cronies will pick the WH Press Pool from now on. She assured major media it would still be allowed to participate—the "for now" was implicit—but said New Media will also be chosen.
