To be fair,
Just how many American congressmen/women are not corrupt thieves?
🚨 The mainstream media is suspiciously quiet after a Democrat has been deemed guilty in one of the most brazen acts of corruption in modern congressional history 👇
Some Government/Public Sector Media Contacts:
Department of Justice: press@usdoj.gov or (202) 514-2007.
Department of Commerce: publicaffairs@doc.gov.

She’s in the club, there will be no consequences.
What a tortured top line, didn’t Breitbart at least 10 allegations of fraud proven?
Always with the bogus headlines that just confuses people.
Don’t bet on that.
She’s facing prosecution in court in a few weeks.
Oprah?
There are multiple stages here. She actually has to be prosecuted, she has to be convicted, and she has to be sentenced.
I will believe each one of those has happened after it has happened. If she actually is convicted of anything, will she receive appropriate punishment? I doubt that.
Separate from all of the above comment is she actually going to be removed from Congress?
Trial is in Florida with a federal prosecution. She’s not going to walk away.
Status Summary
Criminal trial: Pending in federal court (Southern District of Florida). No exact date locked in publicly right now—watch for updates from the DOJ or court docket in the next few weeks/months.
You don’t get to use the term “crackdown”, until someone goes to jail.
Otherwise, it’s just a conversation about fraud.
“You don’t get to use the term “crackdown”, until someone goes to jail.”
Wrong.
Louisiana Supreme Court SUSPENDS License of BLM Lawyer After Federal Indictment
Federal prosecutors say Ruffin stole about $250,000 from a client’s family. They say she lied to them many times about why she needed the money.
Prosecutors say Ruffin told the family they had to pay a New Orleans police officer for fake injuries the officer never suffered. They also say she claimed she made a “mutual non-disclosure agreement” with the Orleans Parish District Attorney’s Office and the officer. She told the family the agreement forced them to stay quiet about a false financial settlement.
Investigators say the agreement never existed. They say Ruffin spent all the money on personal and unauthorized expenses and did not give any of it to the officer.
If convicted, Ruffin faces up to 20 years in prison, up to three years of supervised release, a fine of up to $250,000, and a $100 special assessment.
