The rich, paying blue collar folks to bend the system so their own parties can get that national wide CCW under LEOSA.

This is nothing new. There was that whole PD in Nevada I think it was that has been doing this for years. How do you think all these clowns in California got armed private security prior to Bruen?

End of the day, the rich do what they want.

"During a meeting on July 31, 2019, Jenkins, Individual 1 and Rahim met and discussed Rahim’s desire to get his gun rights restored and become an auxiliary deputy sheriff, the indictment states. About five weeks later, $6,000 in cash was deposited into a joint checking account held by Jenkins and his spouse, the indictment states."

Campaign contributors are exempt from constituent services?

Well the the "political contributions" allegedly went to the sheriff's personal account and were not disclosed as contributions by the campaign. That's where it starts looking suspect.

In campaign finance reports filed with the Virginia Department of Elections, Jenkins did not report receiving any contributions from Rahim or any business associated with him, the indictment says.

It's been a bad year for Sheriffs named "Jenkins" in both MD and VA.
