Or was denied one for him. It's the pits either way. Grifters grifting and leaving cleanup to a veteran with 3 limbs missing. MAGA ???

but at least he got a boat, an SUV, and cosmetic surgery out of the deal. $350,000 dollars diverted from the fund to his personal expenses.

I have no sympathy.

Hopefully Bragg nails Bannon.
