Biden's infrastructure plan takes center stage...

Jun 04, 2021 8:01 pm

President Joe Biden met with key infrastructure Senator Shelley Moore Capito yesterday.


Seems the talk went well. But there's still no real progress, as Democratic Senators Joe Manchin and the fraud from Arizona still won't vote for it.


One sticking point is how the hell to pay for it. The GQP won't budge on "raising taxes." Fuck Grover Norquist.


In other news(!), Don McGhan will be rendering some bullshit interview after stalling for two years on a Congressional subpoena.

And then this:


FBI investigating Postmaster General Louis DeJoy in connection with past political fundraising

The FBI is investigating Postmaster General Louis DeJoy in connection with campaign fundraising activity involving his former business, according to people familiar with the matter and a spokesman for DeJoy.


FBI agents in recent weeks interviewed current and former employees of DeJoy and the business, asking questions about political contributions and company activities, these people said. Prosecutors also issued a subpoena to DeJoy himself for information, one of the people said.


That person, like others, spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe an ongoing and politically sensitive investigation.


Mark Corallo, a DeJoy spokesman, confirmed the investigation in a statement but insisted DeJoy had not knowingly violated any laws.


“Mr. DeJoy has learned that the Department of Justice is investigating campaign contributions made by employees who worked for him when he was in the private sector,” Corallo said. “He has always been scrupulous in his adherence to the campaign contribution laws and has never knowingly violated them.”


Finally, some good news! Oh, and watch Bagman. Look it up on the Google machine.
