One of the most common beliefs in politics is that powerful people always get away with it.
History suggests the answer is more complicated.
A brief look at politicians and public officials from both parties who faced investigations, indictments, convictions, and prison.
Do politicians always get away with it?
Today’s lesson:
So You’ve Been Indicted!
A brief educational film on plea bargains, cooperation, and why prosecutors are often interested in more than one person.
I’ve prayed in churches.
I’ve prayed in temples.
I’ve prayed with people who believed very different things.
After all these years, I’ve learned one thing:
Darkness is still darkness.
A Muslim woman who is on stage with people on stage who admit to throwing Molotov Cocktails to advance the Islamic cause and who say America is not our friend and never will be is now going to be a NY State Senator.
The GOP is missing in action of course, because they can’t bring themselves to saying anything critical of Islam.
Insanity.
You literally can’t make this up
Land O'Lakes butter “Took well over $100 million dollars from USAID. Guess what for? To help other countries like Georgia and Egypt with food safety”
Apparently it pays big to be woke and support cancel culture. $100 million dollars to be exact
Land O’Lakes, Inc started as just a farmer butter and cheese brand. They then started a nonprofit and did development work overseas
If you add up all the government grants it totals about $100 million. Right before the Woke era they were sent a huge amount of money for overseas “development work” in 2018
Just 2 years later they go woke and remove the Indian branding
If you go along with the woke agenda you get filthy rich by having the government launder our tax dollars to you
Personal News: I am writing as a mother and living organ donor.
Twenty years ago this month, our youngest son Peter received a life-saving liver transplant at UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh @ChildrensPgh
With Peter’s permission, I’m sharing a photo taken with his older brother a few weeks before his 2006 transplant, when he was in liver failure.
Four years later, he won gold at the U.S. Transplant Games in Madison, Wisconsin. And here he is today—healthy, strong, and thriving.
What I didn’t fully appreciate in 2006 was that Peter and I were part of pioneering research aimed at reducing the risk of organ rejection in pediatric patients.
Even though I donated a segment of my liver to Peter—and as mother and son we are genetically similar—the new testing protocol still helped lower his chances of rejection.
Peter and I participated in a research project that developed a simple blood test called Pleximmune @plexision
It predicts the likelihood of rejection in pediatric patients by analyzing the unique immune chemistry of both the child and the donor.
The test also helps doctors determine exactly how much immunosuppression a child needs to keep rejection at bay.
Our family knows firsthand how valuable this early warning system truly is.
When Peter hit his growth spurt in his early teens, like so many pediatric transplant recipients, he needed increased immunosuppression.
The Pleximmune test predicted this need months in advance, giving his doctors time to adjust his care before problems arose.
The threat of rejection is a cloud that hangs over every transplant patient and family.
This test is making a real difference. It helps prevent rejection and can save tens of thousands of dollars for families and insurance companies.
This is where common sense matters.
In early July, the research team is preparing an appeal to Medicare @MedicareGov to price the Pleximmune test "fairly and consistently" with similar diagnostic tests.
Right now, only a small percentage of the cost of the test for pediatric patients is being reimbursed.
As the team told me, “Fair pricing is the lifeblood of a company’s ability to provide patients with more informed care and continued innovation.”
Today, Pleximmune has been used to test roughly 10% of children under age 21 who have received liver or intestine transplants in the U.S.
If you want to support this important work and help more pediatric patients and their families benefit...
Send a note to your senator, let them know to escalate the matter with Medicare so the appeal gets a fair hearing.

@realMaalouf Once the Muslim Call to Prayer begins, it's only a short time until outdoor prayers blocking traffic & calls to outlaw pork & dogs in public.
You are in Jihad Phase 2.
Residents in a neighborhood in Brooklyn, NY, are complaining that they are forced to listen to the Islamic call to prayer 5 times a day, starting as early as 5 a.m.
What should be done in this situation?
This is:
Jihad against the United States government:
Zohran Mamdani’s intern Hadeeqa Arzoo Malik explains that electing the jihadist is part of a Holy War and jihad:
“This is all jihad, this is all ibadah, this is all counted by Allah. How committed am I to this? What am I willing to sacrifice for this noble cause?”
📝 Ibadah, servitude, or submission to Allah—acquire 72 virgins or in her case 72 dicks.
Elon Musk is right. Our “aid money” being sent overseas is actually just being stolen and laundered
Billionaire Dan Pena reveals that all the money pledged to impoverished countries “gets stolen”
He says the wealthiest countries get together every year, “They pledge between $100-$500 million. How much money has been given (to those in need)? $0.”
“We could solve poverty in the entire world with the stroke of a pen. And you know why they don't do that in Africa, Ethiopia, wherever? Because of corruption”
“it's because of the c word, corruption, but nobody talks about it. Nobody talks about it. Everybody knows it, but nobody talks about it”
“Almost none of the money's gonna get down to where it belongs.
Remember, Marco Rubio exposed 88 cents of every dollar day was sent overseas was stolen by NGOs
This means they have stolen hundreds of billions over the last decade to enrich themselves instead of proving the aid it was meant for
We work every day to pay taxes to pay that money back. Foreign aid is a scam. It’s all money laundering
Seattle homeless couple says all the money that’s given to the NGOs for housing doesn’t go to housing Americans
She says noncitizens always take priority for housing
They name multiple nonprofits that get money and the money disappears, they’ve tried to get housing but can’t
“You have all these housing people and they do nothing. They leave you out there. Right now I sleep in a tent — everybody's coming to our country and they all get everything they need, but the people that were born here aren't getting it.”
She specially names Catholic Community Services. This is a big one because they are affiliated with Catholic Charities through the Catholic Church’s social ministry network
Remember, Catholic Charities was one of the main NGOs used by the Biden Admin to send money and prioritize bringing illegals into America and giving them benefits and housing over Americans
It’s all connected
Did you know that the death rate from measles declined by 98% BEFORE the measles vaccine was introduced?
“This is all on the CDC website… That decline had nothing to do with vaccines.”
So, if vaccines didn’t do it, what caused that decline from 1900 to 1963?
The answer is better nutrition, better sanitation, clean water, etc., according to Attorney @AaronSiriSG.
Yet “science” wants you to believe that vaccines saved the day.
But that’s not even the biggest vaccine deception. It’s what happens before they approve these shots for human use. 🧵
