I'm sure it was an honest oversight.

Wait, isn't wine haram to her religion?


I guess illegal campaign money counteracts stuff like that.


Did she also dabble in pork futures in the stock market?

Yeah, no kidding. They are all getting bribed. We lost our high ground to criticize it when we made excuses for the Trumps taking a billion dollar airplane, having weddings paid for by foreign oligarchs, and raising billions in investments from foreigners trying to influence the President.

Omar’s husband, Tim Mynett, with partner and top Democratic operative William Hailer, has paid millions to settle a fraud lawsuit related to investments in the winery. And the pair still face another lawsuit.

Is this investigation also under RICO?
This could be FUN!

When gambling sometimes it is called "shooting an air barrel" when someone makes a bet without any money in hopes that they'll win and just steal some money. It's an offense that will get your arse beat in a pool hall.

This is exactly where that phrase comes from, isn't it?

Stfu. There is no “we” and there is no moral high ground.

Damn clown needs to be quiet.
