Schoen lost Stone's case. Trump then pardoned Stone.
Schoen seems like an interesting guy.

Epstein was planning to hire Schoen in the days before his death. Schoen met with Epstein for several hours in prison.
Trump's other lawyer, Castor, is the guy who decided not to prosecute Bill Cosby despite substantial evidence of his guilt and then, when another prosecutor pressed charges in 2016 testified that he had promised Cosby he would never be charged. A judge ruled that wasn't binding.

1. Among Houston-area @kroger workers, there have been 347 COVID cases — and 2 deaths — since December 28

It's much more hazardous for workers now, but Kroger refuses to bring it back

@kroger 2. @kroger has been enjoying record profits: $2.9 BILLION over the first 3 quarters of 2020. That's $1.2 BILLION IN EXTRA PROFITS compared to the first 3 quarters of 2019.

So how is Kroger spending this windfall?

3. In September, @kroger announced it would spend $1 billion in stock buybacks. This will increase the stock price in the short term, increasing compensation for corporate executive that are paid in stock grants and options.

1. @Publix heiress Julie Jenkins Fancelli gave $300K to finance the January 6 event that turned into a riot.

That was the bulk of the funding.

Publix is saying they have nothing to do with Francelli.

BUT Publix that isn't the full story.
@Publix 2. @Publix is one of a handful of companies that has said ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about whether their intend to keep donating to the 147 members of Congress who voted to overturn the presidential election.

They've ignored our inquiries for WEEKS.

3. In the 2020 cycle @Publix donated $3000 to Senator Rick Scott (R-FL), who voted to overturn the election, and $2500 to Senator Tommy Tuberville (AL), who also voted to overturn the election.

Publix refuses to say anything at all about these donations
