Note: Erik Prince founded, but doesn't currently run, Constellis. It's unclear whether he still has any stake in the company, which is now owned by Apollo Global Management.

Constellis subsidiaries awarded contracts under Trump's DHS:

Okay, so maybe not a good idea then. Thank you for educating me. I have been wondering what politics were like in Puerto Rico and what their ideologies were like a few days ago, I will look more into it.

She could make Puerto Rico a state where they can participate in USA democracy maybe. How would that affect the USA I wonder. 🤔
