@ProPublica

How very fucking corrupt of them.

@ProPublica escorted to the Waldorf instead of serving a 45 year sentence that was too light relative to what he done did.

And nobody knows where he went.
So long and thanks for all the cocaine I guess. Was he Jr's dealer's source or something?
And good fucking gravy the guy #joshsmith Trump put in charge of prisons was convicted of drug trafficking.

Worst season of narcos ever.

@ProPublica Clarification: Trump stole our hard-earned tax dollars to send this fucker on his merry way.
@ProPublica The real question is how much did he pay trump for the pardon?
@ProPublica Hitler must be setting up his old drug cartels again
