Donald Trump’s former White House aide is under fire after a video showed him claiming to distribute fake money to homeless people so that they will be arrested when they spend it.

Johnny McEntee, formerly the White House Presidential Personnel Office under the former president, posted a video on TikTok in which he discusses the purported scheme to “clean up the community.”

“So I always keep this fake Hollywood money in my car, so when a homeless person asks for money, and I give them like a $5 bill, I feel good about myself, they feel good,” said McEntee, also a senior advisor to Project 2025. “And then when they go to use it, they get arrested, so I’m actually helping to clean up the community and get them off the street.”

    What does it matter if Trump wins or not.

    Us politicians are already bought and sold by capitalist pigs out of control.

    Its only a matter of time that inflation keeps getting worse and worse and China is going to keep undermining US economy.

    The CEOs have already secured their lifeboats, and the future of capitalism out of control is that it will hollow out the economy.

    The USA has entered a death spiral of poverty by capitalist design, the CEOS are too blinded by greed to see what they have done. And the politicians are in there pockets.

    It will keep getting worse and worse.

        George Carlin said it best. Its a big club and you and I ain’t in it. Red or blue the outcome is controlled by those that control the narrative and both red and blue are their subjects.

        Systems ens come and go, yours is being dismantled internally.
