On May 11, 2017, Brown was convicted of 18 of her 22 felony criminal charges,
including filing false tax returns and conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud,
in relation to the non-profit charity, "One Door for Education Foundation". She
was sentenced to five years in prison and ordered to pay restitution on December 4, 2017.

Corrine Brown wasn't doing anything the Clintons didn't do. She just did it on a much smaller scale and wasn't nearly as good at it.

Keep your chin up Corrine and "GO GATAS!"

Who does she think she is, Hillary?

And why isn’t Hillary Clinton headed to prison for the same reasons related to the Clinton Foundation

You know, I trash some Blacks for pulling the ‘Race Card’ all the time. Here, they seem to have what one might refer to as ‘a slam dunk’ unequal justice claim.

Hillary walks free, as Corrine gets ready to do serious time.

Sing it Corrine! This is a Conservative that will back you on the claim.

Put Hillary in the cross-hairs. I double (sized) dog (Hillary) dare you.

President Trump ought to commute Brown's sentence just on principle.

I get your symbolism, but it would render any claim against Clinton mute. “But wait Trump, you said Corrine’s conviction for the same thing was a nothing burger.”

We have to be careful how crafty we are. Sometimes we can be too smart by half.

There’s no telling how much contraband they’ll find her trying to smuggle in her wig.
