Absolutely. But that was the original saying. Going back to ancient Rome. ROMA was notable graffiti on Roman pillars. Not as praise for the state, but for as an acronym for: Radix Omnium Malorum Avaritia. ~ Root-All-Evil-Avarice. Older usage traces back to the Bible. Money = symbol of greed.

Crime Syndicate. No Justice. Last DOJ was warned repeatedly this would happen, and failed to prosecute ANY coup ringleaders! Ignored many other crimes. bsky.app/profile/chri...
DOJ never had a full plan. ZERO ringleaders prosecuted in 4 years. Not even a public presentation before elections. 2024 Election needs Investigation after 8yrs of election crimes w/ Russia. America deserves better.

Trump rages that Henry Cuellar didn’t pay him back for a pardon by switching parties, blasting Cuellar for a “lack of LOYALTY.”
In other words, Trump admits he was trying to use his pardon power to buy Republicans a House seat.

Hegseth’s own “fog of war” excuse fully contradicts this new excuse, which they have clearly just come up with to try to keep him out of the Hague
EXCLUSIVE: Pete Hegseth ordered the U.S. military on Sept. 2 to kill all 11 people on a suspected drug-smuggling boat because they were on an internal list of military targets, the commander overseeing the operation told lawmakers, according to multiple sources.
Admiral told lawmakers everyone on alleged drug boat was on a list of military targets
Adm. Frank Bradley said U.S. intelligence had identified the 11 people on the boat and determined the military was authorized to kill them as part of Trump’s campaign against alleged drug-smuggling vessels.
