Well, that’s a good find. Use the funds to build the wall.

Oh my, Steven.

That's a lot of derp money the Attorney General is seizing. Is that in accordance with an Executive Order? The January 1st one? I'm not too knowledgeable on the EO thing. Above my pay grade and whatnot.

This reeks of Sessions, though.

PERKINS COIE TAPPED for $2.9 MIL in BACKPAGE case

Interesting. It appears that Backpage's activities were so nefarious that the government "clawed back" payments that Backpage made to numerous lawyers, including Perkins Coie. The funds that Backpage "earned" were so tarnished that they weren't even fit for lawyers.

Thanks for posting this. Saw it on a video but could not get it to save.
