    I am just so sick of the PoPo.  They ruin peoples lives with this bullshit and it’s just an entitled power trip.

    OK. now that makes sense. That is at least reasonable standard.

    No, I think you what you mean is Bribery is a form of Honest Services Wire Fraud. Which... doesn’t quite seem to match the affidavit. They claim the wire-fraud is the mere act of falsifying the college application.

    uh... Stacey Abrams was Minority Leader of the Georgia House of Representatives. Beto was in congress for 6 years and served on the El Paso City Council for 6 years before that.

    Two tiered system? You don’t think people with buildings names after them at Harvard are actually sending their kids public school do you?

    Abrams / O’Rourke 2020!

    Whether I have a ;aw degree pr not isn’t really germane. The vast majority of people with law degree are not prosecutor or criminal defense attorneys.

    So the problem I keep having is, I don’t think this is fraud. Like if this is fraud people who cheat on their tests in high school and people who pay other people to write their admissions essays all that shit is fraud too. Which like causes me to arrive back at the whole everyone is guilty place.

    How Stringer Got His Grove Back?

    I was totally with you.

    There it is! Others have already clearly articulated to you the legal basis for the charges

    Yeah everybody who has announced so far is pretty garbage though.

    I read what you wrote. You did not provide any reasoning which justifies a distinction between paying a bribe to the development office and paying it to the soccer coach.

    Ok, go on then explain yourself. What’s the difference? Gievn that if these people had paid the bribes to the development office then the bribes would have been tax deductible?

    I don’t know what to tell you. I just drscribed 90% of my life. I work at a university, I went to prep school with people just like these who cheated all the time, I may at some point provide private college counseling services... though my focus was on going to college for free not paying extra money.  There is no…

    Because the parents should have paid their bribes to the Development Office instead of to the soccer coach?

    I mean, there was some of that. I think it basically evolved anecdotally from stories about world war II. Notably the people who were telling me this shit had never actually been to France.
