| Rep. Cory Mills, a Florida Republican, allegedly held
| weapons contracts with the federal government while serving
| in Congress, according to a report from the Office of
| Congressional Conduct, the nonpartisan entity tasked with
| receiving and reviewing ethics complaints against sitting
| House members.
| ...
| Under federal law, lawmakers cannot contract with the U.S.
| government, with some limited exceptions. The OCC report
| said that several entities that appear to be owned by Mills
| have been awarded contracts from the federal government
| since 2019. Mills was sworn into Congress in January 2023.

Trump pardon in 3......2.....1.....

It wouldn't entirely surprise me, but maybe a little. I don't think the majority
of elected Republiscums/QAnon would look on it favorably. On the other hand, a
majority of elected Republiscums/QAnon also didn't look favorably on Trump
pardoning the violent insurrectionists, and they didn't say much of anything
when the Orange Fat Fuck, aka the Felon, did it anyway.
