BF Borgers, Trump Media & Technology Group’s independent accounting firm, was charged by the Securities and Exchange Commission on Friday with widespread fraud and accused of operating a “sham audit mill.”

The SEC imposed a severe penalty against BF Borgers, permanently suspending the firm from practicing as accountants before the agency effective immediately. The firm and its owner, Benjamin Borgers, also agreed to pay $14 million collectively in fines.

Question: Is fraud the only way these people know how to operate?

Yes, and started by Trump's Daddy who taught his son how to do it. But he had to prop a loser businessman to the tune of a half billion dollars to clean up the mess Trump made of the company business.

Long Answer: Remember Nixon? "Well, when the president does it, that means that it is not illegal" There is a reason Roger Stone has a Nixon tattoo on his back. There is a reason Roger Stone chose Trump to be President.

"These people" are not like us in ways that would never be apparent unless we spent time with them. They (used to anyway) carefully hide their extreme narcissism and immorality because they know others would be shocked by it, but it leaks out around the edges.

Jeffrey Epstein was definitely a part of that world.

Way, WAY too much in our society operates on good faith and the honor system. "These people" think good faith and honor simply means "You didn't watch me! HEHEHE!" Like a naughty kid. So they grow in the dark recesses, like mold. They hate oversight and bright lights and regulations like Glass-Stegall and the Fairness Doctrine. Chip, chip, chip.

We have been asleep at the switch, thinking everyone was basically "normal". Everyone is NOT "normal".

In short, yes. It is the only way these people know to operate.

What's more, 'those people' think that people who play by the rules or go fight and die for freedom and democracy against fascist regimes are suckers. 'Those people' have bone spurs where other people have a sense of civic responsibility.

There is a word for 'those people': "under-evolved."
