This piece is part of our weekly Prime series on corruption and the Trump Swamp, but it has been moved outside of the paywall while we cover COVID-19.
Ah Katie Porter is going to rip Kathy Kraninger a new one if the House ever comes back into session.
We gotta wonder as to just what degree Organized Crime is involved in payday lendingâŚ
Wherever you see a Trump donor, you will see a cesspool of corruption. Itâs blatant pay to play; to the point they donât even try to hide it.
With this Administration, decency, integrity, or tradition donât matter. If they perceive no one will stand up to them or stop them or that there will be no consequences to their actions, no rules or standards or behavior will stop them from depravity. This is apparently what weâve signed up for.
Because nothing says you care more about the vulnerable among your citizens than unleashing predatory lending scammers from laws designed to protect the public.
If this keeps up people are going to think theyâre running a corrupt Third World kakistocracy.
Color me surprised. As they say on SNL: âainât nothin gonna happenâ. At least not until we put Democrats back in charge.
That would be the Trump Administration, yes.
Well ⌠if weâre a little bit charitable about the âorganizedâ part, that is.
Of course they did after all a company that charges 350 percent or more interest is the Merican dream firm.
Pay day lenders have been running Republican policies since Obama was President. I know this because my worthless Congresswoman Wagner has been a champion to pay day lenders. Her first term was 2013.
A great big one, I hope!
Along with the Trump organization they are no doubt involved up to their eyeballs . . . at the very least.
An âexplosiveâ memo? Nah, itâs more like setting off a cherry bomb in the middle of your townâs Independence Day fireworks display. This latest evidence of the Trump administrationâs corruption will hardly make a splash.
I adore Katie Porter.
OT for the late shoppers among us âŚ
Sorry, kids. Itâs real.
There is no end to the marketing genius of Ronna* [maiden name (Romney) deleted] McDaniel. Indeed, her genius has no end (or beginning, for that matter).
*The reality is Ronna is little more than a littler Hamhock Huckabee wearing a smaller catering tent.
Gee, itâs almost like the content of a DNC campaign ad is just writing itself for them.
Hey, as long as it gets liberals mad, why worry, right?
Itâs early and I need my coffee⌠but I read this as Orange-ized Crime⌠same difference I guess
So did these folks need bribes to do this kind of work, or are they just salaried members of the team?
We used to have laws governing âusuryâ. Religious folk decried the money lenders in the temple. That was yesterdayâs GOP.
Payday Lenders are the scum of the earth. Period. Full stop.
