. . . while I try to recover from the news that law enforcement officials in New York state are persuaded that Steve Bannon is a scamster and a crook.
Seriously, though, it's sort of funny how all the cultists got pissed when Hillary called them "deplorable" or whatever, but they're ok with being regarded as suckers and easy marks by the second-string grifters lining up on their side of the ball. "Send us money to build The Wall! It's a charity! We don't take anything for ourselves!"
LOL!
Every detail is hilarious. From the New York Times:
Mr. Bannon, working with a wounded Air Force veteran and a Florida venture capitalist, conspired to cheat hundreds of thousands of donors by falsely promising that their money had been set aside for new sections of wall, according to a federal indictment unsealed in Manhattan.
The fund-raising effort raised more than $25 million, and prosecutors said Mr. Bannon used nearly $1 million of it for personal expenses.
Despite the populist aura he tries to project, Mr. Bannon is known to enjoy the high life, and he was arrested at 7:15 a.m. on a $35 million, 150-foot yacht belonging to one of his business associates, the fugitive Chinese billionaire Guo Wengui, law enforcement officials said.
I hope the Twins have night games every day of the RNC so that I'm not tempted to watch as these bumbling a-holes expostulate about "law and order."
