How Bernie Sanders Used His Extra Cash

As CBS News reports, “Bernie and Jane Sanders, under FBI investigation for bank fraud, hire lawyers“.  We may now have an idea what Bernie and Jane did with all that cash.

Bernie and Jane’s New Ride

Politico Magazine first reported the Sanders had hired lawyers to defend them in the probe. Sanders’ top adviser Jeff Weaver told CBS News the couple has sought legal protection over federal agents’ allegations from a January 2016 complaint accusing then-President of Burlington College, Ms. Sanders, of distorting donor levels in a 2010 loan application for $10 million from People’s United Bank to purchase 33 acres of land for the institution.

According to Politico, prosecutors might also be looking into allegations that Sen. Sanders’ office inappropriately urged the bank to approve the loan.

I can see it now. Bernie and Jane on the run in their new ride.  The Chambers Brothers playing  at full volume and Bernie shouting,”Give it some more cowbell, Janie”.

Now the time has come
Nowhere (place) to run
Might get burned up by the sun
But I’ll have my fun
I’ve been loved, pushed (put) aside
I’ve been crushed by tumbling tide
And my soul has been psychedelicized

The Chambers Brothers – “Time Has Come Today”

Trump Street Art

From The Guardian, “I think leftism is a disorder’: is this artist the rightwing Banksy?”

In the Trump era, the right, however, has its own guerrilla artist: Sabo, a former US marine who works from an apartment-cum-studio in Los Angeles beneath a sign that says “Fuck Tibet”. Another says “Fuck peace”.

 

Under cover of darkness, he peppers public spaces in LA with images and slogans targeting liberals, whom he associates with “pot-smoking lazy bums” hostile to western values. He puts the same images and slogans on posters, T-shirts and pins which he sells from his website and at Republican party gatherings across the US.

“I think leftism is a mental disorder,” Sabo, 49, said in an interview at his home. “I truly believe I’m fighting the good fight.”
