Little Angels Spreading The Goodness of Trump.
Please meet Karyn Turk. She’s what Fox News calls a “conservative commentator.”
Fresh from hosting a fund-raiser for the legal defense of Republican operative Roger Stone, conservative media commentator Karyn Turk on Friday admitted she stole her 83-year-old mother’s Social Security checks.
Looking relaxed and unperturbed, Karyn Turk pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court to a single charge of Social Security fraud. Turk, who was crowned Mrs. Florida 2016 and touts her involvement in charities, faces a maximum one-year jail term and possible $100,000 fine when she is sentenced on Dec. 13.
Her mother is in a nursing home with dementia.
Turk explained that this is a misdemeanor so she won’t lose her right to vote – a right she described as “very important to me.
In court papers, guardian Amy Nicol accused Turk of using her mother’s Social Security checks to promote her dream of appearing on “The Real Housewives of Palm Beach” and to garner publicity
We all gotta have a dream, y’all.
So when Fox has a political commentator, you know where they find them.
Thanks for everybody for the heads up.
There aren’t enough scumbag ex trump staffers looking for a gig on Fox “news”? I forgot, they’ve got to be young blonde women. My bad.
1Real Housewives. Is that what Fox Not the News is calling their porn star ‘commentators’?
2What an amateur! She only took $17,000 of her mom’s Social Security and Medicare benefits. Simpson-Bowles Cat Food Commission attempted to take billions from the elderly. It is a Republican leisure time recreational activity that bluedog Dems just can’t resist.

Well it probably wasn’t home-made jam on muffins she was spreading around to get a job with FAUX Noose.
4Wally @3, RE: SS and Medicare attacks.
Here’s a most excellent Forbes article describing what the Republicks have in mind for our some of retirement. It’s basically the same eighty-year old shit as always, but they are constantly getting slicker at it; and the media gets dumber.
Not just tRump needs to be expelled, but also as many of the Rs as possible before it’s too late.

Papa @4, Errrm, I think that I could warp your “home-made jam on muffins she was spreading around” to show that’s ‘zactly what the grifter was doing, given her obvious.. assets…
Apart from that, with a quickie errr pardon, yeah pardon, she’s gotta be on the fast-track to the West Wing.
5“Conservative commentator” must pay pretty well if she can throw fundraisers for poor Roger Stone, yet she needed her mother’s meagre checks (take if from me, I’m on SS)? Conservatives have the morals of a honey badger.
Speaking of which, Texas has lost another Republican. Mac Thornberry of the 13th says he won’t seek re-election. Who does that leave besides Screwy Louie?
6Stealing mom’s social security checks? I guess that makes her a thief and a socialist. Not to mention the detail about “honor thy mother and father…”
7Sorry but those age numbers don’t add up unless Karyn was adopted. An 83 year old with a twenty something daughter???
8Stealing your mom’s social security checks/ Yikes, how low can you go? Oh, wait, she’s a Republican…
9Looked at some photos of Karen Turk. She’s WAY over “twenty something”.
10@pablo – You’re right; she is 46 years old. And there is one real American Housewife that doesn’t think much of her – although it could make an interesting plot line for “reality TV”.
