At best, they are gag shirts that you wear to your office on casual Fridays to show you have a sense of humor, but you really do not and everyone laughs at you not with you.

Hey, maybe their slogan should be the shirts that make people laugh at you, not with you.

He even looks a little bit like Francis. A fat, pasty white, rich kid with nothing to offer.

I would think if I looked like that, I would not want to draw attention to myself with a loud shirt. Ugh, money is wasted on the wrong people.

Dec 2017

Wyatt Koch has filed suit against Ivie Gabrielle Slocumb, his ex-fiancée, saying she failed to return her $250,000 engagement ring once their relationship ended, The Daily Mail reported Wednesday.

According to the Palm Beach Daily News, Koch bought the ring for $180,000 at Manufacturing Jewelers on New York's Madison Avenue in March.

Koch is the 31-year-old son of the billionaire William Koch, who broke away from his brothers in the 1990s and hosted fundraisers for Donald Trump during his presidential campaign, according to Fortune.

the question is whether or not you would give two shits about the likes of Wyatt while doing so.

Living on Palm Beach? Yeah...not cheap.

Other parts of Palm Beach county? Completely doable.

Those two produced some bad eggs who wear suits and apparently do a lot of their parents' and grandparents' foot work these days, grooming for taking over. The Koch brothers fully intend to go after Social Security and Medicare in 2018, the way they are the ACA now. They're extremely dangerous.

We don't know how many people who count their wealth in the hundreds of millions and billions are in that alliance, but over 700 personally attended the meeting when Obama was inaugurated. Carefully selected agents of those people are holding most cabinet positions now and being appointed to the judiciary at all levels, including Gorsuch.
