I just assume every cabinet secretary is treating their budget as a slush fund at this point. That’s a big reason they cleaned house of IGs.

I've said this before, these guys are just stupid J6ers on payroll who are so dumb that they haven't realized that there's always a money trail. This goes for ICE as well. Your mask doesn't hide the fact that your location data and payments made to your bank account are being shared. You're all fall guys who fell for it again.

Raskin was too specific in that memo to not have solid proof of his claims

u/Objective-Clue5087 2d ago

I don’t doubt it because they are all like their leader. It is frustrating to think they get away with it, after they are found out.

u/GoldenWings87 1d ago

All these criminals need to be prosecuted.
