Out of the $18.8 million, $18 million will go to consultants, non-profits, lawyers and kickbacks to state and local politicians. $800,000 will go to actually clean up the properties.

That’s OK though.

All of these millions will go to democrat Party Liners. Democrat lawyers, present and future Democrat Party Liner real estate owners.
