Today in Fascism

Man I should have been a politician.

After Benny
@bennyjohnson
went digging on Illan Omar, I went digging a little bit on "the squad".

Rashida Tlaib is a broke ass mf'r btw.

However, Ayanna Pressley (MA-07) has some interesting things going on.

Her husband is pulling in $1M/yr from "government funded" sources.

So I dug through her congressional financial disclosures and used AI to break some things down.

Let's go.

THE NUMBERS:* 2018 net worth: -$12,500 (per OpenSecrets)* 2024 net worth: ~$8,000,000

That's an $8 MILLION increase in 6 years on a $174K congressional salary.

How'd that happen?

THE TIMELINE:*

Jan 3, 2019: Pressley sworn into Congress*
Jan 8, 2019: Her husband Conan Harris resigns from his $92,500/year Boston City Hall job*
Jan 15, 2019: He registers "Conan Harris & Associates" - a DEI consulting firm* Wayback Machine confirms http://conanharrisassociates.com went live in 2019.
What a wild couple of weeks, eh?

THE CONSULTING GRIFT:
Per her financial disclosures, his firm's income:*
2021: ~$300,000*
2024: $100,001 - $1,000,000
That's a MILLION dollars a year from a consulting firm launched the week his wife entered Congress.

THE CLIENTS:
His client list reads like a government funding directory:*
City of Bridgeport,
CT (municipal govt)*
City of Framingham (municipal govt)*
MassHousing (state housing finance agency)*
Meet Boston (tourism bureau, receives public funding)*
The Boston Foundation*
Justice Resource Institute (social services nonprofit)*
Obama Foundation

Pattern: DEI consulting for entities that either ARE government or depend heavily on government grants.

THE CONFLICT:
Pressley sits on:*
House Financial Services Committee (MassHousing = housing finance)*
House Oversight & Government Reform (government contracting)

Her husband's firm gets paid by government entities and nonprofits dependent on government funding - in policy areas her committees oversee.

THE ETHICS WARNING:*
The Boston Globe reported in Feb 2019 that before leaving City Hall, Harris used his government email to pitch staying on as a $50K/year consultant.*

State ethics laws bar using official resources for personal gain.*
An ethics expert warned they'd need to "be mindful to avoid any potential ethical and political pitfalls."

REAL ESTATE:
Her 2024 disclosure shows spouse-owned assets:*
Martha's Vineyard rental: $1,000,001 - $5,000,000*
Boston rental #1: $500,001 - $1,000,000*
Boston rental #2: $500,001 - $1,000,000*
Boston rental #3: $250,001 - $500,000*
Fort Lauderdale rental (sold 2024): $250,001 - $500,000
Total real estate: $8M

Remember, in 2019 they had ONE rental property and were underwater on it.
THE BACKGROUND:*
Before his city job and consulting gig, Conan Harris spent 10 years in federal prison for drug trafficking.*
He went from dealing drugs → city job (while his wife was on City Council) → million-dollar consulting firm the week she entered Congress.

BOTTOM LINE:*
Net worth in 2018: negative*
Net worth in 2024: $8 million

The day his wife became a Congresswoman, Conan Harris quit his city job and launched a consulting firm that now pulls up to seven figures annually from government-funded clients.
She sits on committees overseeing housing and government contracting.
He consults for housing agencies and government-funded nonprofits.

The swamp doing swamp things.

So much of this going on. The Left needs many more “martyrs” to distract from the level of corruption the they are involved in.

The amazing thing is...they all cry and claim T is a fascist and a threat.

And yet what do they say? When Rs are out of power they will pursue them with shall we say a vengeance. They want to prosecute and jail those that they disagree with.

The Left has a problem with the mental illness they cultivated among their expendable base. It’s hard to control. It very much reminds me of The Bee parody where the Devil is meeting with Leftists and tries to tell them to tone it down - and they weren’t having it. 😂😂😂😂😂 This public, voluntary broadcast of individual unhinged behavior will not play well among people who still are capable of critical thinking.

SCHUMER THREATENS SHUTDOWN TO PROTECT CRIMINAL ALIENS

Chuck Schumer is holding up $91.8 billion in DHS funding - blocking ICE, Border Patrol, TSA, FEMA, and counterterrorism operations - all to force a "rewrite" that guts immigration enforcement.

These convicted criminals (homicide, rape, child abuse, weapons charges) are exactly who ICE should be removing. Instead, Democrats want federal agents working unpaid while violent criminals stay on our streets.

Shutdown brinksmanship has failed every single time - 2013, 2018-2019, 2025. Democrats get zero concessions, cause pain for federal workers, then cave.

So why do it again? Because the show must go on

Here is a Dem gov saying that despite billions being spent...not one house in PA has been connected.

Where did those billions go?

Gov. Shapiro Throws the Biden-Harris Admin Under the Bus“They got that infrastructure bill passed to provide the BILLIONS of dollars that were needed to … connect everybody in Pennsylvania. Do you know how many people have been connected to high speed, affordable Internet thanks to President Biden? … ZERO.”

I came to understand this when the Dems were eager to shut schools and biz because they wanted to feel safe from covid. That despite evidence that covid only affected a rather small and easily identifiable portion of the population.

Your politically directed stance on safeguarding a vulnerable population is well documented.

I saw it. He went full karate on the taillights and spit in the face of ICE Police. He should have been arrested and probably be alive today. ICE knew this guy was packing and watching him like a hawk. Gun free zones to pop off little kids at schools but these Lefty lunatics are now all about gun rights😷
