” improperly steered federal contracts to friends and former colleagues “

‘Improperly’, meaning, ‘he got caught’.....

just the other day I stated to some mixed company (meaning there were suspected left-O-crats in the room) that there is not one person in the current administration that is not tied in one shape or form to corruption and crime.

it's like a friggin game to these people. Like that gangster flick where the kids gets busted and goes to court and all the bent noses are outside to cheer when he gets out.

I guess he’s a ring knocker who really didn’t take that, “I will not lie, cheat or steal or tolerate any who do” line to heart.
