Former Rep. Corrine Brown, D-Fla., who pleaded guilty in May to one count relating to fraud, announced she is running for Congress again,

she should be locked up...so it's appropriate she'll be in Congress...see what i did there?

 
She was locked up for 5 years. I am surprised she is allowed to run. I believe she did only part of the sentence.
The Constitution does not outright bar convicted felons from serving, but it's up to the House or Senate to decide whom to seat. Florida law I believe says different I am not sure if it relevant here. But a county commissioner here was convicted of felony and barred from running again.

What does Brandon have to say about this? Has the President denounce Ms. Brown yet? Or doesn't he have the courage?

Why not? What's good for the goose

The Trump Organization and its CFO, Allen Weisselberg, face felony charges for an alleged 15-year scheme of conspiracy and criminal tax fraud in the state of New York. “When you read through the indictment, through all 15 counts and the 24-page indictment and the stunning level of detail, it really presents a sweeping tax fraud case.” Norman Eisen examines the severity of the charges against the Trump Organization, and evaluates former President Trump’s risk for potential future indictment.

Is good for the gander.

Frighteningly it seems she can do it. Alcee Hastings is my fav.

Oh so she served her time? That's better than Trump

Donald Trump's family business misrepresented the value of some of its biggest assets by hundreds of millions of dollars, according to documents filed by the New York attorney general.

Letitia James accuses the Trump Organization of using "fraudulent or misleading asset valuations" to get loans, insurance and tax breaks.
It is Ms James' strongest language yet, as she tries to get Mr Trump to testify in her civil investigation.

Mr Trump had inflated the value of his assets to banks when seeking loans.

Mr Trump's lawyers are trying to stop Ms James from questioning the former US president and his children, and he has sued her to try to halt the probe.

Ms James's civil case is separate to an ongoing criminal investigation in Manhattan into the organisation's business practices.

Her latest court filing on Tuesday is the first time the allegations being levelled at the Trump Organization have been detailed with specific examples.

For example, his large property in Westchester county, north of Manhattan, was valued at $291m however an appraisal valued it far lower, at just $56m, the court filing says.

The attorney general also alleges that Mr Trump's lavish three-storey penthouse in New York's Trump Tower was valued based on a size of 30,000 sq ft (2,800 sq m), but it is in fact 11,000 sq ft.

At least two false statements were made to the (IRS) that "substantially overstated" the value of two properties to get a tax break.

The Trump Organization "used fraudulent or misleading asset valuations to obtain a host of economic benefits, including loans, insurance coverage, and tax deductions."

Now I know you don't care if Trump breaks the law but we do. I say don't vote for Trump we won't vote for this woman. Deal?

And you wonder why people entered the Peoples House on January 6th.

The possible future indictment of President Trump isn't the same as an actual convicted felon like Ms. Brown.

Not seeing an issue, if her constituents want her to represent them, then they will vote for her. She served her time.

I vote policy :) I did voteTrump for that reason but he has some work to do before he gets my vote again.
 
Whatever. That's not because he's innocent you scumbag.
hahah yes, he is innocent....I know maybe in your demafacist utopia you can simply round people up that you dislike for political reasons and lock them up....but in the USA, still...in this Republic...people are innocent until proven otherwise.

The Star Chamber that is the Jan 6th Committee can't change that.

I understand Hitler's policies were better than the former President of Germany before he took over. Their economy was in a recession. Inflation was high. So ....
 
I don't consider National Socialism a good policy. So I would have been a democrat over there as well. And kept a low profile. '' I understand Hitler's policies were better than the former President of Germany before he took over. Their economy was in a recession. Inflation was high. So ....''

You're an idiot. He lied to the IRS. Trump will tie it up in court for years then settle and you'll say he wasn't found guilty.

And you complain that things are unfair in America. The rich are treated better. They get away with shit. Only you ONLY care when it's Hunter Biden and $1 million dollars a year salary, not when it's Jared Kushner and the Saudi's paying him $2 billion. Yea, nothing to see there.

But when we show you how the rich get away with shit you'd never get away with, you defend them. Lapdog.
