    Sorry, it seems the article summary omitted which cabinet position Trump is appointing her too - does anyone know off hand?

      Woah, I was going to say that instead of prison, Trump should snap her up since she’d fit right in with the rest of the picks, but clearly reality already got there first and it’s not a joke.

          Bahaha ok, thanks. So @xmunk beat me to it and things are so whacky that I just assumed, yeah ok I guess it’s real! Probably should have read the article ;). But hey there’s still time for Trump to tap her, it still might happen.

            Yes this is crazy times. Trump might want her for some financial position. She must be good, she can sell nothing for $200 million.

            It was a good one too. 😋
            The joke where voters elected Trump however, I’m not so sure I like.

      A hispanic woman? Too non-white, non-male for a Turnip cabinet pick.

    She must have ripped off some wealthy people. Rookie mistake. Only steal from the poor, then the justice system doesn’t care.

    In 2021, investors in MJ Capital filed a lawsuit accusing Wells Fargo Bank of aiding the fraud scheme by failing to follow its own anti-money-laundering policies. The bank in March 2023 agreed to settle the suit for $26.6 million.

    It would be nice, since corporations are people, if corporations could be criminally prosecuted and sentenced to prison. Like, Wells Fargo should get, say, five years. During that five years, all of their assets are frozen, and they’re not allowed to do any business whatsoever. You know, pretty much like what would happen to any criminal.

      No the criminal acts are committed by people, criminals shouldn’t be able to cover their crimes behind a company, and have only the company punished.
      It’s way to often the case that management suffer no consequences of criminal acts, and the company is merely fined. It’s disgusting IMO.

          Yes absolutely, any financial gains should of course be confiscated, and the company should still be fined. But the people who ordered the criminal acts, should be punished personally too. Possibly banned from management positions the same way child abusers can’t work with children.

      Wells Fargo would serve its sentence in its office with a little ankle bracelet and it would be business as usual.

    It’s good to see women taking over roles traditionally run by men.
