USAID is under the umbrella of the State Department, but is an independent agency. The Secretary of State has no say in it’s decision on who gets a grant.
One last thing, none of the suits against Laureate Education has been successful. The DOJ investigated Laureate and concluded in 2021 there was no there there.

He went to jail for that. If he is now saying the opposite of what he said then that seems a good indication he is now telling the truth.

No one likes Cohen, grand jury is not going for it and is why it has not happened.

No he doesn't. He made good on a slew of campaign promises after he became president.

‘Totally Exculpatory’: Trump Reveals Cohen Attorney Letter He Says Will Undercut Manhattan DA’s Case
https://www.theepochtimes.com/totall...m6lh%2BhGK0%3D
Hmm...I wonder if this little story has anything to do with that airhead DA postponing the grand jury.

Difference is, Trump lies about knucklehead stuff.
In the reality of things, TRUMP DELIVERED.
Nothing else matters.

I can think of two campaign promises Biden kept.
1. No more America first.
2. He will have the most diverse cabinet ever.
Neither of those good, what are the others?

True that America will never be the same if they arrest Trump.
It will be BETTER!

Two entirely different things. Trump paid hush money. Clinton settled a lawsuit and did it publicly. Everyone knew Jones’ allegations before during and after the lawsuit.
As to where he got the money, $475,000 was paid by his insurance. The rest from a blind trust from Hillary.

mostpost normalizes everything wrong from Dems, and demonizes everything normal from Repubs and Trump.
And that right there is how election 2020 was completely rigged even if every vote was 100% legal and counted 100% accurately.
Because that's what media and the intelligence agencies did as well.

yes, focus on minor charge
the biggies are-
Hillary had a private server that she used to conduct pay to play transactions with people all over the world including hostile countries (being secretary of state)
the Clinton Foundation does not follow any of the laws and rules for non-profits. Those that donated millions to them and took tax write-offs stole from the country. The Clintons were on the 'board of directors' which is not allowed for what they claimed their organization was.
I do not know much about 'book sales'. but I doubt many make the suthors $60 MILLION. I suspect few books have that much if GROSS sales, and yet the Kenyan mulatto and his America hating wife got that. Was that payback for something they did in office?
