John Cornyn

September 30, 2020 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

John Cornyn has often gotten into trouble for taking questionable political contributions and by questionable, I mean from crooks.

Now I don’t know if that’s because everybody in the Republican Party is a crook or that crooks are just naturally attracted to John Cornyn.

Back in April of last year, a man named Harry Sargeant gave Cornyn $5,600, the legal limit.  The limit was legal but Mr. Sergeant isn’t.  He owns a company named Sargeant Marine.

Sargeant Marine and its affiliates, through its employees and agents, concealed bribe payments to Brazilian government officials by creating fake consulting contracts and fake invoices by using cash payments and by wiring millions of dollars from the United States to offshore bank accounts held in the name of shell companies of bribe middlemen.  As a result of the Brazilian bribery scheme, Sargeant Marine and its affiliated companies earned profits of approximately $26.5 million.

They plead guilty last week and agreed to a $16.6 million dollar fine.  That means they only came out $10 million ahead, which certainly makes bribery a little bit unattractive.

Thanks to Alfredo over at the Dairy Queen for the heads up.

    Mr. Cornyn follows the path of the rest of these crooks. It is like a malignancy. Total silence for the obvious reason to impeach. So many other law breaks along the way by President Trump including latest taxes paid and not. I dont know what it will take to get these thugs to stop shaking in their boots. Instead of trying to pass legislation presented by the House to help people he is more worried about his own campaign for re-election and rushing to confirm a Supreme Court nominee who will assist in making sure we ladies become handmaids and destroying health insurance and going back to the 1950’s. I can only hope kharma gets them all.

    [Hell, I sometimes worked in Leander, TX while MJ was attending Leander HS, how time flies.]

  3. PS: Texas is a –very– expensive media market.
    Donate to whatever Texas Democratic candidates that you can or wish to, we could flip this place this election.
    I am seeing many hardhitting Democratic teevee ads, far more than in previous elections. It takes $$…

    Cornyn has one skill and that’s getting money from rich Texans. He can’t give a speech or write legislation or work parliamentary procedure. He’s no good to Texans for any of the ormal funcrions of a Senator.

    I am a proud contributor to MJ Hegar and several other
    blue candidates to get rid of the Republican guard, regardless of where there are. F*ck Mitch McConnell too, I contributed to his opponent!

    These messed up campaign finance laws allow big corps., rich people and organized groups to game the system, well us poor folk can fight back. Contribute around the country wherever it’s needed. Get these dinosaurs out of office !!!
