Yeah and he has a top secret clearance…different set of rules for our special brand of corrupt oligarchs.

He has top secret clearance and openly does ecstasy and cocaine and a bunch of other recreational drugs. That’s normally a thing that prevents you from getting a security clearance.

The DoD has had companies send out reminders that CBD isn't federally legal so people with clearance should steer clear.

They should put an asterisk below the reminders **does not apply if your net worth is in excess of $3M or whatever point at which your lawyers outsmart the IRS annually

That he’s walking around without consequences does in fact show he can just ignore it. Actually have him suffer the consequences of his actions please.

[–] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 49 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

7 or 8 years from now this will be done and he will be fined a couple million.

Protection money paid to racketeers by racketeers.

I like that new style of headlines!

"Court to Elon" tastes so much better than the former tradition of "Elon said"
