Yeah it's the NYT but this has been talked about for a while

quote:

Nearly a million dollars went to right-wing operatives who claimed to have worked with Laura Loomer, a social media provocateur who has the ear of Mr. Trump, to advocate for Mr. Schwartz’s release. Another $100,000 or more was paid to a lobbyist who had a different set of connections to Mr. Trump — pro-Israel evangelicals.

Thousands more went to lawyers who had personal relationships with Alice Marie Johnson, Mr. Trump’s “pardon czar,” and David Warrington, the White House counsel, according to four people familiar with the effort.


The influencers are a cancer and that bubble needs to bust quickly

It's an ongoing issue. Wonder why NYT is shedding light on it now?

Did Biden pardon anyone? I haven't heard.

If there is a person making an important decision, that person is being lobbied and someone is paying them to lobby - and potentially paying the person making the decision.

This is true at all levels of government in every country in the world in all eras of human existence.

Lobbying in general is a cancer. It needs to be illegal if any $ changes hands

It is. A bigger problem is media being blind ans disinterested when one team is doing something unabashedly and suddenly get interested and must shed light when the opposite team does the same thing.

I agree with transparency. I appreciate the NYT bringing facts, if these reports are true. I despise the fact that their transparency only goes in one direction. In fact, I don't think they should be considered news and should lose their tax exempt status.

It's out in the open now on X. The Eric Daugherty and Gunther Eagleman types are basically paid lobbyists

no jetrine biden's as bad as it's ever been it the history of the presidency.

let's be honest ellie mae you don't care about biden, you're like my brother who i asked at our nieces wedding reception if he actually believed biden got 81 million votes, he promptly replied "no and i don't care trump had to go"

just admit who you are, own it! be proud of it!
