College co-fled: Lori Loughlin's daughter Olivia Jade skipped her first week of classes at USC [tr]
UK Daily Mail ^ | March 15, 2019 | Chris Spargo

Lori Loughlin and her husband Mossimo Giannulli brought the horse to water, but it just would not drink.

The embattled couple is currently facing up to five years in prison for falsely presenting their daughters as crew recruits at the University of Southern California and then allegedly paying over $500,000 in bribes to guarantee that both teens would be admitted to the school.

There were early signs however that the investment made by the two might not yield great returns, especially when their younger daughter Olivia decided to skip the first week of her freshman year and fly off to Fiji.

So, in The United States Of America, under President Donald Trump, federal law enforcement investigates and prosecutes rich white people.

Hmmmmm.....

Could be worse, a billion dollars goes a long way.

Does anyone seriously think these spoiled brats were going to attend classes and work on a degree? College for them was just a party stop and neither would ever have graduated. Ditto for the Obama girls.

We have only scratched the surface of this scandal. If the FBI peels the onion (and it is so corrupt it is more likely to take a bribe than an admissions officer) this should uncover payoffs that might even equal those paid to the Clinton Foundation.

761 families supposedly paid the money.

Heard Joe Montana was one but not verified yet.

Likely some other big names to come.

Yes, this is a shiny object which has the potential to distract the American people for a LOOOOOONG time.

Which I suspect is EXACTLY what the FBI wanted.

Overnight she has gone from a college student making upwards of seven figures a year to an unemployed drop out.

If Mummy and Daddy can afford a half mil to get her into school, she isn't going to starve. Still, that's a pretty rough end to an evanescent social media career. 24 hours from star to non-person. They'll be photoshopping her face from the ads like that old Stalin pic...

Could be.

But our President didn’t tell the FBI to look the other way because rich white people were involved.

Seems like we had a previous President who DID do that.

Oh yeah.

Obama and the Clintons.

Do you see the difference?

The contrast?

Obama tried to let the rich white Clintons get away with their crimes.

That Obama, he never met a dollar he didn’t like.

Does she really have "OJ" in her college dorm room? The same college where OJ Simpson the double-murderer went?

Her name is Olivia Jade.

But what a coincidence!

Skipped a week?

Why wasn't her admission rescinded?

She’s best friends with one of the daughters of one of the big wigs at USC. She was on their yacht when all this came down. She was probably in line for Valedictorian. If you can buy an SAT score, you can bribe the professors. You can get people to write your term papers.

I wonder how much the Clintons paid to get Chelsea into college.

She never struck me as very bright.
