He looks like a dimwit.
No mention that he needs to provide restitution.
Dimwit perfectly encapsulates this guy's look.
I think he looks like an angry toe.
Don't say fraud
So in today's GOP, this fills the prerequisite "Must Do Crime" box to run for higher office....

We need a nonprofit NGO that does tax investigation, if that were possible.
We have a problem though. The entity responsible for investigating these things is the IRS. The IRS is controlled by our politicians, and they are keeping it under-funded. Thus, the IRS does not have the resources to investigate if it has been defrauded, for as long as they can protect themselves from it.
So, one solution would be an investigative entity whose funding they cannot touch. One run and funded by donations.
they're all at least selling Snake Oil.. all the ones shouting about frog lasers and voting fraud and shit.. but most are dedicated criminals like this guy, stealing anything that isn't nailed down..
Good
