This report will probably surprise few people.
I say this because most of you reading this believe the government is just as corrupt as I do.

“This seems egregious to me — could we ever charge a [18 U.S.C. §] 371 conspiracy to violate laws of the USA for misuse of such non profits to get around existing campaign finance laws + limits? … IRS Commissioner sarah ingram oversees these groups.
“Let’s discuss tomorrow but maybe we should try to set up a meeting.”
After the scandal, an internal investigation by the DOJ found, “Our investigation uncovered substantial evidence of mismanagement, poor judgment, and institutional inertia.”
And this is the man Merrick Garland put in charge of investigating Trump… the deck is stacked.
