When Rats Run

"Finger-pointing + outrage
follow tRUmp’s pardon
4 USC father
in college admission scandal"

"Prosecutors allege
Zangrillo paid assocs of
Rick Singer,
mastermind of admissions scheme,
2 finish his daughter’s
HS+ community college classes."

U.S. attorney 4 MA,
Andrew E. Lelling,
took swipe at Zangrillo
4 “having his own daughter
knowingly participate in scheme 2 lie 2 USC,”
+ said the pardon demonstrated
“precisely why Operation Varsity Blues
was necessary in 1st place.”

"White House said the pardon was backed by several businesspeople, including L.A. developer Geoff Palmer, but also investor Thomas J. Barrack, a USC alumnus and a university trustee"

Tom in a Jam

“I hope it’s true that a USC trustee, with a fiduciary duty to the university, played no role in securing a pardon for a wrongdoer whose actions have done so much harm to USC’s reputation.”
