I'm with you Robin (but with poodle, not kitty--my fam is allergic to cats, alas). The NYTimes exposé is a great read--the ultimate Ponzi scheme starring our favorite cast of execrables, including Roger Stone. But it was not "interest free" as loans go: the suckers who did not read (or could not--it was really tiny) the small print paid a ton a fees for cancelling the weekly--sometimes daily--charges on their debit cards and the credit card companies paid millions for the hefty fees associated with clawing back the money. They should sue the Cheeto and his campaign leaders. What it reminds me of is the scams used by internet thieves who steal identities through fake PayPal accounts that they then use to drain unsuspecting people's accounts.
As for Murderous Mitch and his Malevolent Minions, bless their mendacious little hearts, my heart doesn't bleed for them. And my keenest desire is to see Gaetz and Greene stripped of their congressional positions and trundled off to jail. Maybe in a tumbril. That would be fun.

The guillotine, with Madame DeFarge looking on with her knitting...
Had to look up "tumbril", and laughed out loud when applied here. Thanks, Linda, for an early morning chuckle'
