Blanche bribing Senators with payola from slush fund of our tax dollars


Now Blanche is bribing Republican Senators behind closed doors to sign the $1.776b “slush fund”


How? Republican Senators can be paid from the fund!!!

A summary says the fund was created to help people "who were victims of lawfare and weaponization," including millions of Americans "whose online speech was censored at the behest of the government, parents silenced at schoolboards, Senators whose records were secretly subpoenaed, churchgoers targeted by the FBI, and so on."
