... The Democrat is accused of stealing Federal Emergency Management Agency overpayments that her family health care company had received through a federally funded COVID-19 vaccination staffing contract, federal prosecutors said. A portion of the money was then funneled to support her campaign through candidate contributions, prosecutors allege. "Using disaster relief funds for self-enrichment is a particularly selfish, cynical crime," Attorney General Pam Bondi said in a statement. "No one is above the law, least of all powerful people who rob taxpayers for personal gain. We will follow the facts in this case and deliver justice." ...

OK, in this instance I agree with AG Bondi 100%.
Now, , current instance aside, if she would only focus upon Pres Trump, and fulfill her oath to the Constitution, instead of apparently being a toadie of Pres Trump ...

Original Sources:
USDOJ Press Release
Congressional Report
If convicted, US Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick faces up to 53 years in prison.
Are you kidding me?
How many years did Dummkopf Trumpf get for 34 counts of business fraud committed over a lifetime?
And Congress wants to censure Del. Stacey Plaskett (D-VI).
No surprise that Women of Color are under attack under the malevolent Trumpf junta.
On a different thread a drudge.com contributor used the term "white toxicity."
And how.

"No one is above the law, least of all powerful people who rob taxpayers for personal gain. ..." Well, Ms. Bondi, take a look at your fellow Cabinet members: you have your work cut out for you. No, wait, you got bought by Donnie the Perv for a measly $25K (that we know about). Fuhgedaboudit.

Trump should step in and pardon since he established there's nothing wrong with public corruption with his commutations/pardons for George Santos, Duncan Hunter, Steve Stockman, Rick Renzi, Rod Blagojevich, Duke Cunningham to name a few.

She's not without blemish
"The Florida Democrat has also been the subject of an ethics investigation into campaign finance issues and requesting community project funding, known as earmarks, to a for-profit entity, potentially in violation of House rules"

Really?
Lower level Nazi war criminals were finally released from Soviet custody in 1955 and 1956 after serving ten year sentences. Some went on to write memoirs of the Third Reich or their time in the gulags. The books which became movies about Der Fuhrer's last days in the bunker came from their testimony.
Moreover, the Immortal Bard didn't live as long as this potential sentence of 53 years for Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick.
William Shakespeare passed on 23 April 1616, at the tender age of 52.
