Book deals are how payoffs/bribes are hidden now. Bush Jr did the same thing. Halliburton bought thousands of his books and lit them all on fire.

Pearson Publishing was paid for Commoncore but Penguin Random House Publishing did the Obama book deal. But there is commonality with the two:

From Wiki:
Penguin Random House was formed on July 1, 2013, upon the completion of a £2.4 billion transaction between Bertelsmann and Pearson to merge their respective trade publishing companies, Random House and Penguin Group. Bertelsmann and Pearson, the parent companies, owning 53% and 47%, respectively.

In July 2017, Pearson agreed to sell a 22% stake in the business to Bertelsmann, thereby retaining a 25% holding.

Quid Pro Quo

Same as Obama’s stance on net net-neutrality benefited Netflix, now Netflix hires Obamas to produce their “Higher Ground” shows to the tune of millions.

Was this on purpose to benefit some other countries like China or India? The latest data from 2018 shows the US is 38th in math in the OECD countries. I would be curious what the standing was prior to 2008.

it's funny in light of all those mass murder shooting rampages where the main problem was usually about money deep down at the source, but oh well you seem to enjoy living in a bullet swarm, as you've become accustomed to dodging the bullets and also seem to take great pleasure (completely understandable) from watching people being gunned down wholesale like turkeys in a pen.

Since 2011, Pugh received $500,000 selling her illustrated paperback series to the University of Maryland Medical System, a $4 billion hospital network. Pugh sat on the medical system’s board of directors for about 18 years.

Criticism of UMMS and of Pugh has lately been intense. The Washington Post’s editorial board recently asserted the UMMS had a “get-rich-quick program” for many of its board members, with Pugh’s involvement painted as an egregious case of “political sleaze.”

I told people this back when Netflix gave $30 million to the BOZO....he also helped ease Netflix access to non-US markets and this was the payback.

NO ONE and I MEAN NO ONE is just given $30MIL or $65MIL just because they were the prez unless there is a QUID PRO QUO....


FYI Piglosi's son and Horse face Kerry's sons were also on the take from Berisma and other Hunter deals...

and YES OBOZO is the one that allowed Joe to make those deals.

Kamala Harris is not a Natural Born Citizen. She's illegally running.

Used by the Founders...
Book I of The Law of Nations, Chapter XIX, § 212 (Joseph Chitty numbering) – “Citizens and natives”
reads: 'The citizens are the members of the civil society; bound to this society by certain duties, and subject to
its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. The natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in
the country, of parents who are citizens. As the society cannot exist and perpetuate itself otherwise than by
the children of the citizens
, those children naturally follow the condition of their fathers, and succeed to all
their rights.' 1758 Emerich de Vattel

America must have 4 new Constitutional Amendments...
1. Drug Tests and Mental Evaluations on all politicians and judges randomly five times per year.
2. Term Limits for Federal politicians and judges.
3. Mental and health standards for Supreme Court Justices and retirement age set.
4. A 'Star Chamber' of elected Natural Born Citizens (no attorney's) to ivestigate, try, and prosecute the politicians and government employee's as they see fit.

What a surprise, Obama and the Demonrats stealing American tax dollars and passing it to a friends company all so it can be washed and secretly divided up to all the corrupt thieving a-holes involved in the con.

But the lefties don't care about this abuse and theft.
That behavior is just normal and an expected perk by these corrupt scum as they feel that we the people and taxpayers are the servants while are they are Royalty above the Law and us all.
