    Morris Dees and $PLC certified deplorable, David North, on SBA.GOV

    | We now turn to the work of Matthew Bonness, a volunteer activist
    | with White-Collar Workers of America, whose research shows us that
    | the SBA made $1.8 billion worth of PPP loans, many subsequently
    | forgiven, to a grand total of 2,164 H-1B-dependent employers (those
    | in our Circle 5).
    |
    | But it's worse than that. Two of the eight on the current debarred
    | list in Circle Six, Business Intelligence Solutions ($265,860) and
    | Invensys ($225,700), got PPP loans and perhaps even grants. The
    | ever-cautious Labor Department does not provide the addresses of the
    | debarred employers, although the listing carries an "employer
    | address" space that is left blank.

    Does Marty Walsh believe employers of scab workers should receive
    subsidies?

    hosted the Log Cabin award ceremony in Mar a Lago) supports race-
    based investments and the Fairness for All Act, which would
    effectively criminalize traditional views of sex and marriage and
    codify gender ideology. https://t.co/dV7lJ4iDyf" - Pedro Gonzalez <URL:https://twitter.com/emeriticus/status/1458083777314529290>
