An optimistic concept that mercenary groups are subject to laws. An idea that has bled into politics. Unless laws are actually enforced, there are no laws. lawfareblog.com/what-laws-cons…
Like America's ultimate mercenary, enforcement of for profit groups might come down to "Hey....did you pay your taxes?" vanityfair.com/news/2021/03/d…
The last four years have seen bizarre and rogue mercenary operations conducted by players who keep assets off shore and use proxies to hide their financial involvement. theintercept.com/2020/04/13/eri…
Some of these crimes were conducted in plain sight and then later hampered, slowed down or frozen by William Barr. Yes, Trump's top law enforcement officer may have been a crook. nytimes.com/2020/09/17/us/…
The amount of repair and damage control currently conducted by the Biden administration is vast. Much of it being done quietly and quickly as four years of fuckery, criminality and vandalism are unwound. Now we wait to see where and when the first hard knock occurs.
Even the "Abraham Accords" were a mercenary operation. Slush funds controlled by Jared Kushner went to a who's who of rogue operators and killers. The UAE and Saudi Arabia bought our foreign policy. Israel continues to try to drag us into war with Iran. Africa is being attacked.
I am not sure if we will ever discover how much deceitful work was done by Pompeo, Kushner and the band of gollum-like idiots that surrounded Trump. We just know that when the indictments start, America will need to figure out how to keep criminals from running this country.
If we view Trump as a mercenary who rented out our troops, reduced our military footprint to trigger hiring proxies, sold weapons to dictators and used Kushner as his bagman we can now focus on where his money is. We now know Kushner spent $1.2B of Gulf money on unrelated items.
We know Trump's crew included Manafort, Bannon, Prince, Broidy, Nader, Rudy and many others ran amuck in countries known for money laundering and criminality. We know that Trump is transactional. So where is the money? Who are his proxies? This is the way to stop criminals.
Without evidence, we still know a broke ass casino carney hired a criminal gang to make money as fast as they could and two criminal families obliged them if they would just let them take out their enemies. It was actually the very first foreign trip that Trump took. #GitDatCash 
With evidence provided by law enforcement we have seen clear evidence that election fund raising, quid pro quo deals, foreign bagmen, social media hustles and fake outrage scams fueled the Trumpsters. He tried to pardon them but prosecutors want justice. huffpost.com/entry/steven-b…
A vast scope of criminality was uncovered by Mueller..until Barr shut him down. This summer Biden American should appoint a special prosecutor to unravel how much money Kushner and others hid for Trump and what other criminal acts were conducted. vox.com/2019/4/19/1848…
The only similar event (and much simpler) was perhaps Iran Contra. The President circumventing the government to conduct foreign policy. At least Reagan had a noble concept as his goal. Trump and his crew just wanted money. brown.edu/Research/Under…
