Mercenary Biden donor gets 12 years
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Imaad Zuberi pleaded guilty to charges of tax evasion, campaign finance violations and failing to register as a foreign agent

  • He was ordered to pay nearly $16 million in restitution and a nearly $2 million fine

  • Federal prosecutors described Zuberi, who reports to prison May 25, as a 'mercenary' political donor who gave to anyone he thought could help him

  • Sentence comes after former President Donald Trump pardoned others who had been convicted or pleaded guilty to similar foreign-influence-related crimes

#1 To borrow and convert an obscure phrase from the 1970's:

"Its Zebart OR Rust"

'Its Zuberi or Rust"

Your in for/to Rust, Mr. Zuberi.

Congratulations, You win the prize.

#2 Federal prosecutors described Zuberi, who reports to prison May 25, as a 'mercenary' political donor who gave to anyone he thought could help him

Obviously he should have been more selective and generous in his giving.

#3 "Well, win some and lose some..." sighs Perry.
"I hope prison isn't too scary,
Imaad, but that's bellum."
"Hell, someday I'll tell 'em
On tall stacks of vellum --
And way oversell 'em! --
The Not-So-Rich Years of Zuberi."
