Burger King does revenue on the order of billions. Fines for violating labor laws like this should not be so small that they are effectively just a line item. Treating this as a petty crime while throwing the book at shoplifters is crazy.
Multiple Burger King and Popeyes franchises across Massachusetts has been hit with over $2 million in fines for violating child labor law.

Nearly 2,000 workers under age 18 were being paid late, paid less than minimum wage, or were not paid at all.

Liberals complaining about propaganda should be angry at Biden for allowing Fox News to skate for knowingly spreading false information about the 2020 election as well as allowing near monopolies in local news and talk radio by Sinclair and iheartmedia, respectively.

Anti-trust is anti-propaganda!

I thought Biden might be too much of an institutionalist to even pardon his own son but this final act proves that his weakness on our behalf was always a choice.

When it is something he actually cares about, he’ll act.
