That’s also how I tourist when I’m on the mall. I find a police officer and run at him. Definitely very just tourist things. The gallows, I admit, are a little hard to bring on metro, especially at rush hour, but I make it work for my love of tourism and free museums. |

“The founder and president of the Patriot Freedom Project, Cynthia Hughes, encouraged people to vote for Trump at one of the group's events held at Trump National Golf Club Bedminster in August 2023. Because the Patriot Freedom Project is organized as a nonprofit charitable organization under section 501(c)(3) of the tax code, it is "absolutely prohibited" by federal law from "directly or indirectly" taking part in partisan political campaigns or endorsing or opposing candidates.”

Vince McMahon, longtime Trump friend, donor, and husband of Trump’s head of the Small Business Administration.
“A woman who received a payout from WWE boss Vince McMahon has accused McMahon, the company and a former executive of sex trafficking in a new lawsuit that raises questions about the breadth of an internal company probe conducted by a law firm last year. Janel Grant, a former employee at WWE’s headquarters, said in a lawsuit filed Thursday that she was abused and sexually exploited by McMahon while he was chief executive. She alleged that McMahon lured her with promises of career advancement, and then he allegedly exploited her and trafficked her to other men inside the company. Grant signed a nondisclosure agreement in 2022 in which McMahon agreed to pay $3 million for her to not discuss their relationship or to disparage him.” https://www.wsj.com/business/vince-mcmahon-accused-of-sex-trafficking-by-wwe-staffer-he-paid-to-keep-quiet-0b19b21c |
