in the Hotel barroom, right? At least that's Mr. Prince's story, and he's sticking to it. Nothing to see here, comrade. Continue with the spreading of Polonium onto sandwich materials, Da?

..... to tRdump is akin too owning the winning billion dollar ticket.

Prince has all sorts of schemes where he fits in with the admin where he can cash in and make a shit bucket ton load of money.

Erik Prince is like G. Gordon Liddy, Roger Stone, and Oliver North rolled into one - all genuine Fascist slimeballs - then out to fleece and plunder America's coffers with personal self enrichment schemes.
