The funny thing is, the more famous you get, the more people probably give you free stuff even though you can afford to pay. He probably just asks everyone just because most of them will say “sure thing, Leo!”.

Leo would have reported this earlier, but he had other things on his mind ...

LOL! The clerk who stated the obvious was working with me as a summer job. She went on to become a barrister/judge in the UK!

I don’t understand this one, simple, obvious fact.

Politicians make lots (!) more (!) money in office than their salaries. Obviously, they get kickbacks in exchange for policy decisions and votes.

It’s like there’s just a general acceptance of this obvious problem.

Did Trump leave office with more worth than he started? I think not.

Based on this information, Trump should be arrested immediately.

American politicians…and many high level bureaucrats…become ridiculously, obscenely wealthy by selling out the American people. Mostly to foreign powers but also to big money interests internally.

This is the #1 reason that this country is terminally corrupt…and frankly is the worst, most detestable, most destructive and perverse government on Earth.

It is time for the United States government to cease to exist, in any manner that can be accomplished. It is now fascist. And this is basically the beginning of the reasons why that is now necessary.

Imagine how much more is being funneled through the drug cartels.

Keeping the border open is costly but the cartels have plenty of money.

Ng Chong Hwa, Roger Ng.

1MDB.

Roger Ng Previously Convicted of Conspiracies to Pay More Than $1.6 Billion in Bribes to a Dozen Foreign Officials, and to Launder Billions Embezzled from 1Malaysia Development Berhad

BROOKLYN, NY – Earlier today, Ng Chong Hwa, also known as “Roger Ng,” a citizen of Malaysia and a former Managing Director of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (Goldman Sachs), was sentenced by United States District Judge Margo K. Brodie to 10 years’ imprisonment for conspiring to launder billions of dollars embezzled from 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB), conspiring to violate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) by paying more than $1.6 billion in bribes to a dozen government officials in Malaysia and Abu Dhabi, and conspiring to violate the FCPA by circumventing the internal accounting controls of Goldman Sachs. The forfeiture amount will be determined at a later date. In April 2022, Ng was convicted by a federal jury on all counts following a nine-week trial.

Breon Peace, United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York; Kenneth A. Polite, Jr., Assistant Attorney General of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division; Michael J. Driscoll, Assistant Director-in-Charge, Federal Bureau of Investigation, New York Field Office (FBI); and Tyler Hatcher, Special Agent-in-Charge, Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation, Los Angeles Field Office (IRS-CI), announced the sentence.

“Roger Ng was a central player in a brazen and audacious scheme that not only victimized the people of Malaysia, but also risked undermining the public’s confidence in governments, markets, businesses and other institutions on a global scale,” stated United States Attorney Peace. “Today’s sentence serves as a just punishment for the defendant’s crimes and a warning that there is a significant price to pay for corporate corruption.”

Roger Ng could have gotten vowels from Pat Sajak for a heck of a lot less.

A "financier" more correctly termed an embezzler.

This is related to Jack Ma, the Chicom billionaire, issues.

Some state or local prosecutor needs to charge Obama with campaign violations!

Surely bambam spent some of that 'stolen' campaign cash in Red States. It seems that would be a good place to start. If he claims none of that was spent in Red State 'A' let him 'prove his innocence', right Piglosi!? Then it can move to Red State 'B', rinse and repeat. The process is the punishment.
