Financial Fraud Kingpin Pardons Fellow Financial Fraud Criminals

Another recent Drumpf pardon that gives the lie to his and Republican claims that they sincerely give a flying fuck about Medicaid/Medicare fraud.

If Drumpf and MAGA care so much about Medicare fraud, why is he pardoning and commuting prison sentences of people who have committed this criminal fraud, and who where rightly sent to jail for it?:

"A South Florida man sentenced to 50 years in prison for ripping off tens of millions of dollars from Medicare was among the more than two dozen people whom President Donald Trump granted clemency to this week. Lawrence Duran — the former co-owner of American Therapeutic Corp., a Miami-based company that ran seven healthcare clinics between South Florida and Orlando — pleaded guilty in May 2011 to multiple felonies, including defrauding Medicare, healthcare fraud and money laundering.

Duran and his girlfriend, Marianella Valera, the co-owner of the company and one of its therapists, filed 866,000 false claims with Medicare and received more than $87 million from their scheme, according to court records. Their case was part of a much larger probe that included 22 other defendants, including senior company employees, psychiatrists and patient recruiters. In all, the scheme involved $200 million in false billings. At the time, it was the nation’s largest Medicare therapy rip-off scam in history."

The party that claims they unleashed Elmo's slash and burn hellhounds on Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, VA Benefits, SNAP and any other government agency that helps improve the lives of ordinary Americans who aren't billionaires because of rampant fraud, sit silent as their orange spray-painted, convicted felon leader pardons actual people who were convicted by actual American juries in actual American courts in front of actual American judges for their actual crimes of fraud against these agencies.

This is why I don't believe a goddamn word out of the mealy, dissembling mouths of these morally bankrupt Republicans and their convicted felon, rapist leader, nor should anyone else.
