Right after Michael Jackson died, they released a movie showing him prepping for a tour. In one bit, he’s crying because the environment will be destroyed in nine years and there’s nothing we can do about it! Ten year anniversary of his death coming up and all’s well.
Shouldn’t pick on Mikey, though. Ted Danson said the oceans would be dead in ten years. That must have been twenty years ago now.
And before Ted, it was Mike Farrell with the idiotic predictions.
BTW, besides socialism (gag)....Bernie and AOC have a lot in common.
AOC’s COS used to be Bernie’s....wait for it....."Director of Organizing Technology."
AND THIS--Saikat Chakrabarti, is a proven tech expert.
(A) He co-founded a web design tool,
(B) He built up the product team at the payment processor "Stripe".........
(C) He then came to the Sanders campaign after (cough) growing disillusioned with the tech world.
Saikat Chakrabarti was Bernie's Director of Organizing Technology. Even old man Bernie knew enough to hire a tech expert.
So, I guess (smirk) Chakrabarti's tech skills musta come in mighty handy when donations to Bernie were wire-transferred to the DNC
and ended up in Hillary's account. Debbie W/S headed the DNC at the time and was ousted b/c of her bias for Hillary. Course, none of us heard about any of this, but.....
<><> Chakrabarti-the-tech-whiz did find out about the DNC theft, didnt he?
<><> Chakrabarti did speak to D/W/S about it, or to Debbie's tech expert, Imran Awan, didnt he?
<><> Chakrabarti did tell Bernie he was fleeced, didnt he?
<><> Chakrabarti WAS working for Bernie, wasnt he?
===============================================
Now the details about that FEC complaint: The FEC complaint asserts that AOC's COS, Saikat Chakrabarti,
early on established two PACs that raised big bucks for AOC's campaign:
<><> the Brand New Congress PAC, and,
<><> Justice Democrats PAC.
After mucho money was raised, Chakrabarti systematically transferred $885,000+ in PAC contributions to his private companies with similar names:
<><> the Brand New Campaign LLC, and,
<><> the Brand New Congress LLC.
NOTE: Saikat Chakrabarti's private companies, unlike PACs, are exempt from reporting all of their significant expenditures.
Keep in mind it is a much-used criminal act to open bank accounts using similarly named entities as Chakrabarti did.
It's easy to siphon off money for oneself by putting checks into the new accounts with similar names, depositing checks that were made out to the original entity.
Even your bank advises you that if the check-writer "mis-spelled" your name.....to just endorse the check with the correct name.
AND PRESTO: a check made out to AOC's Brand New Congress PAC, is deposited in AOC's Brand New Congress LLC account.
==========================================
ANALYSIS --- Chakrabarti's companies appear to have been set up for the sole purpose of obscuring how AOC's donations were used. The arrangement skirted reporting requirements and may have violated the $5,000 limit on contributions, according to the FEC complaint filed by the National Legal and Policy Center, a government watchdog group.
Campaign finance attorneys described the arrangement as “really weird” and an indication "there’s something amiss." They said there was no way of telling where the political donations went — meaning (A) the donations could have been pocketed, or, (B) used by the LLC's to pay for off-the-books campaign operations.---SNIP---SOURCED FROM FR.
===================================
JUST WONDERING .....does Chakrabarti have a reputation among Democraps for facilitating the conversion of campaign donations?
Maybe we should ask Bernie (/s)?
Simple....Trump needs to issue an EO that prohibits illegals from having driving license...and all drivers license of non citizens are cancelled.
Where’s the ice age we were promised in the winter of ‘77-’78? It was imminent, inevitable, and all the fashionable scientists were swearing to it.
Danson’s “prophecy” about the oceans was 30-ish years ago...
