After a botched Chinese proverb (http://www.npr.org/2018/06/12/...he-proverbial-author), it gets reported that Jared and Ivanka managed to eek out a living while serving as the president's closest "unpaid" advisors. http://www.npr.org/2018/06/12/...-last-year-filings-sho

82 million for our little nepotistic free workers. It's ironic. Those who said it couldn't be done were lawyers and ethicists explaining conflicts of interest and the emoluments clause. But they did it. They profited spectacularly. In no small part from the Chinese, which is probably why Ivanka thought her botched quote was Chinese. It's a perfect metaphor for their obstruction and profiteering. "Those who say it cannot be done should not interrupt those doing it." It really epitomizes the trumps, even down to the incorrect attribution.

Ironically, people in sensitive jobs can't have ZTE phones, even as personal phones.  LG, Samsung, Motorola...all are A-OK but not ZTE.  

And Trump wants to save ZTE.

Go Figure.

Kim Kardashian West explained that she was able to get her newest friend pardoned by the President because she called Ivanka and talked about, like, women's issues and stuff and a week later the woman sentenced to life in prison for her first offense drug trafficking was freed. Now Kim is pursuing other causes. This is the world of the celebrity apprentice president. He was wooed by a celebrity and his daughter, both of which he is attracted to.

Why in hell was a first offender given a life sentence?!

That should never happen in the first place. Free all non-violent offenders and bring down the prison industrial complex.

She was in the federal system, she did not cooperate and she was probably charged with more and higher level offenses every time someone else in the conspiracy flipped on her. She was genuinely naïve in a place where naiviete can get you a life sentence.
