    Data released Monday by the Small Business Administration show that businesses owned by members of Congress and the law practice that represented President Trump were among the hundreds of thousands of firms that received aid from the agency.

    Why do you think trump kept this a secret? It was originally stated that the bigger businesses had teams of lawyers that were able to navigate the paperwork much faster than the businesses that were actually supposed to get the money.
    Once in a while you get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

    Sad fact of government corruption: Any opportunity to extract the wealth of the people and give it to the super-rich will be exploited.

    But it doesn't have to be that way:

    Personal Ignore Policy PIP: I like civil discourse. I will give you all the respect in the world if you respect me. Mouth off to me, or express overt racism, you will be PERMANENTLY Ignore Listed. Zero tolerance. No exceptions. I'll never read a word you write, even if quoted by another, nor respond to you, nor participate in your threads. ... Ignore the shallow. Cherish the thoughtful. Long Live Civil Discourse, Mutual Respect, and Good Debate! ps: Feel free to adopt my PIP. It works well.

    Anyone who has been paying attention knew that these pandemic relief programs were always going to be full of fraud...because Washington is that corrupt now....the intelligentsia have failed.
    I choose my own words like the Americans of olden times........before this dystopia arrived.

    Trump did not run these programs, he relied on corrupt experts to do that.
