In addition to bribery and conspiracy, the couple face charges including wire fraud conspiracy, acting as agents of foreign principals and money laundering. If convicted, they face up to decades in prison and forfeiture of any property linked to proceeds from the alleged scheme.

They were officially taken into custody Friday... 2 days ago.

That soft spot on the top of your cranium never solidified, did it?

Yeah, see the difference is that libs here are saying let's let the law take it's course and see what happens.

As opposed to Trump Cultists who say he couldn't possibly be guilty of... anything.

Those two things are not at all the same.

This might be a good time to shill for my "Public Trust Act".

I believe any person, once granted the public trust, if found to be abusing it, should be sentenced to three times the maximum sentence for that crime, and serve at a real prison, not a Club Fed.

This would go for elected officials, bankers, pension trustees, government procurers, etc.

The Cuellars are the reason. They should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
