More PPP Fraud...
Don V. Cisternino, 46, of Chuluota, pleaded guilty Tuesday in Orlando federal court to wire fraud, aggravated identity theft and illegal monetary transaction, according to court documents. His hearing is scheduled for Jan. 5 where could face up to 32 years in federal prison. As part of a deal with prosecutors, Cisternino has already agreed to forfeit the money from the fraud, as well as any assets connected to the crimes.
According to the plea agreement, Cisternino fraudulently secured more than $7.2 million in emergency funds through a Paycheck Protection Program loan in May 2020. Cisternino’s PPP loan application falsely claimed that his business, MagnifiCo, had 441 employees and monthly payroll expenses in 2019 of more than $2.8 million. The company actually had no employees other than Cisternino. Along with his loan application, Cisternino submitted false W-2s, many of which listed the names and Social Security numbers of real people who had not authorized him to use their identities. After receiving the money, Cisternino spent it on a Lincoln Navigator, a Maserati, a Mercedes-Benz and a 12,579 square-foot (1,168 square-meter) home in Seminole County, Florida.

Turkey Interior Minister Suleyman Soylu has called LGBTQ people “perverts.” In 2020, President Erdogan defended the head of religious affairs after he claimed homosexuality “brings disease and causes the generation to decay.” While championing his long-held belief that the identities of women are rooted in motherhood and family, the Turkish leader last year urged people to dismiss what “lesbians schmesbians” say.
Interesting these were absent from the GOP agenda, pre-Trump. And I'm not a Trump fan but there's no doubt he has brought the GOP to heel on some major policy issues.
- Fight inflation and lower the cost of living by cutting government spending, lowering taxes, and deregulating industry.
- Maximize American-made energy and move supply chains and manufacturing away from China
Damn shame he had his other 4 years stolen. Would be awesome to see what the economy, stock market and energy prices would be doing today had he remained in.Interesting these were absent from the GOP agenda, pre-Trump.

I like it, but I missed the part about invading Mexico and taking over control of their ports, where the fentanyl perusrors come in from Chyna.There's some other stuff I'd like to see in here but this is a decent start.
A lot of people need to go to prison or worse over Covid as well.
House Republicans just laid out their agenda if they win bigly in the midterms. Here's the rundown.

- Fight inflation and lower the cost of living by cutting government spending, lowering taxes, and deregulating industry.
- Maximize American-made energy and move supply chains and manufacturing away from China.
- Secure the border by increasing funding to law enforcement, hiring 200,000 more officers, ending catch-and-release, requiring legal status for jobs, targeting DAs who refuse to prosecute crime, and fighting the import of fentanyl that's killing thousands.
- Establish a Select Committee on China to counter the growing threat of the CCP.
- Advance a Parents' Bill of Rights, protect women competing in women's sports from transgender ideology, work on legislation to curb censorship and privacy invasion by Big Tech.
- Uphold constitutional freedoms including free speech, the rights of preborn children, religious liberty, and the right to keep and bear arms.
- End proxy voting in Congress, push for voter ID and accurate voter rolls with fair observer access to polling sites.
DOJ and FBI are what they are- A COMMUNIST GOON SQUADI was going to put this in the Roe vs Wade thread but figured I'd post it here just to see how deranged the left has become and how they've infested the DoJ and FBI. I'm certainly not condoning the defendant's actions. If he broke the law, he should be punished. But this is more of a political statement by the DoJ/FBI.
But more concerning is the manner in which this defendant was arrested at his home. 25 to 30 FBI agents with long rifles? Take a look at the video and tell me the left hasn't infested our federal law enforcement apparatus. And this isn't the first time. This tactic has been used on more than one occasion and usually when arresting conservatives.
Is this what the FBI SWAT team is funded for? To be deployed against conservatives and former Presidents? Against non-violent citizens? Who in the FBI chain of command thought this was a good idea. And I wouldn't be condoning this if it was a liberal defendant either. And I'm listening to the arresting agent(s) give verbal commands and it's down right embarrassing. Cowardice actually.
This type of raid for violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act (of 1994) should never have been approved UNLESS the defendant had a history of real violence . This crime carries a maximum penalty of 1 year in prison (for a first offense) and this guy won't get that. This is despicable and cowardly actions from federal law enforcement.
