"Navarro served a four-month prison sentence after being found guilty of misdemeanor charges for refusing to cooperate with a congressional investigation into the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.

He is also appealing his conviction in that case, maintaining he couldn't cooperate with the House committee because Trump had invoked executive privilege.

Former White House adviser Steve Bannon also served prison time after being convicted of misdemeanor contempt of Congress charges."

Navarro is a Made Man now in the Trump Mob.

Yeah, the WH is For Sale again.

At least the Dems who are for sale don't advertise it; the Trumpers all think they should be billionaires, too, and that if they fall in with the Mobster system of bribes and payoffs, they will be!

For a while. These things have a way of evening out.

Big Sales are always popular, and DJT and America are For Sale to the highest bidders.

Make the Swamp Open Again!

This will stop as soon as DJT realizes he can't hire any dishwashers and gardeners at his motels.

"... GOP investigators have touted Smirnov's claims for months."

Trumpers love them some lying witnesses. They'll now just pretend that they never made him the center of their political trial.

Well, and then after conviction Trump will just Pardon him... if he can come up with a significant donation.

And people wonder why President for Life Vlad is his Super Hero.

Zwiefelhofer will qualify for Trump's Cabinet after he's Pardoned.

"There's that capitalist meritocracy mythology at work.

This quietly self-defeating ideology is championed by many who have been failed by both of our major parties, and those concerns have been particularly exploited and manipulated by Republicans who have traumatized them into believing that liberalism, and not capitalism, is the source of their ills; that liberalism is why they work and work but never even break even, much less get ahead.

Lest there be any confusion:

I am a capitalist, because entrepreneurship and innovation best advance in free markets. I have to acknowledge that I believed many of these myths and felt that my own misaligned rage, which seems to be even more acutely experienced today by MAGA devotees, was justified; I see now that this was rooted in ignorance."

A good read by a recovery MAGA-ite.
