Igor Fruman, a former associate and close ally of Rudy Giuliani, has been sentenced to a year in prison in a case involving illegal campaign contributions from a foreign national.

Fruman was charged with Lev Parnas, another foreign-born Trump donor, who also promoted unsubstantiated corruption accusations against the Bidens before the election.

Biden defends his first-year record as agenda stalls: 'I didn't overpromise''I will make a prediction,' says pollster FrankLuntz. 'I will say at this point it is pretty clear that the Republicans are going to recapture the House and the reason why is that the expectations have not met the reality.' FrankLuntz Partisan hack FrankLuntz We Americans won’t punish Joe B for his 1st year anniversary n office. It’s not a light switch where one can turn of a failed Trump admin and Covid and easy money fro Fed. I reward his efforts amid all the Republican sh*t he step in. FrankLuntz I hope you are wrong and more people understand inflation is global because of this pandemic. You and the “cancel student debt”folks with “we are going to punish the Dems in midterms”y’all really don’t realize that’s punishing yourself & your family & all of us. It’s NOT a game!

Thursday marks 2 years since first COVID-19 case reported in WashingtonIt has been two years since the United States was rattled by its first COVID-19 case, which was reported in western Washington. This is why I dont trust 'facts'. I personally know 4 people in Seattle who had COVID in Dec2019. 2 years and the population LEAST effected by the virus is the one being denied their rights, their childhoods and mental health the most. People need to wake up and see what these policies are doing to kids, it makes no sense.
