From June of last year:
Two Democratic lawmakers, including one running for president, are calling on the company that operates the Homestead detention center for unaccompanied migrant children to disclose details on how Gen. John Kelly President Donald Trumps former chief of staff and ex-secretary of Homestead Security landed a spot on its board of advisers.
The inquiry to Caliburn International on Thursday comes two months after the Miami Herald reported on Kelly being mysteriously spotted at the South Florida shelter on a golf cart in early April.
About a month later, the Herald revealed that Caliburn quietly had gotten a new, $341 million no-bid contract from the Department of Health and Human Services, which falls under DHS, and that Kelly had joined the companys board before the contract was awarded.

If he draws attention to himself, it might fuck up his grift of making sweet dollars off the backs of children and babies

(13,903 posts)all of them are sell outs to one degree or another. From Sessions who is willing to beg and grovel to get re-elected and lets Trump shit on him...to Mueller who did as little as possible and then folded like a cheap suit when Barr took office.
None of them of have the character and the balls to take a stand against Trump himself.

(90,763 posts)I've been posting about this since this issue came up a few days ago. Look at Kelly's Wikipedia page for details. They are about to go public and issue stocks valued in the nine figure range. I wonder what his cut of that will be.

As a Marine Corps brat (Daddy served 32 years), Kelly has done not one thing that exemplifies the spirit and values of the Corps, according to me
