U. S. Capitol Attacker May Have Suffered Head Trauma From Playing Football, Family Says
Trump Scammed His Supporters Out Of $64 Million, And They Want Their Money Back
As the election neared, the Trump team made that dis- claimer increasingly opaque, an investigation by The New York Times showed. It intro- duced a second prechecked box, known internally as a “money bomb,” that doubled a person’s contribution. Eventually its solicitations featured lines of text in bold and capital letters that over- whelmed the opt-out lan- guage.
The tactic ensnared scores of unsuspecting Trump loy- alists — retirees, military vet- erans, nurses and even experienced political opera- tives. Soon, banks and credit card companies were inun- dated with fraud complaints from the president’s own sup- porters about donations they had not intended to make, sometimes for thousands of dollars.

scammed his supporters out of tens of millions of dollars to keep his campaign afloat. According to The Times, at its peak, one-third of all fraud complaints to banks were from supporters of Trump’s campaign who were scammed. The campaign had to issue refunds to 10.7% of its donors.
The deranged driver who fa- tally rammed a police officer before being gunned down outside the U. S. Capitol on Friday may have suffered re- peated head trauma during years of playing football, his family said Saturday.
Noah Green, 25, was “not a terrorist by any means,” the family told the Washington Post.
Green had been studying for his master’s degree in busi- ness administration — but also suffered from “depression and potential mental illness,” the family said.

Green had a history of trou- bling behavior, and was quickly unraveling the night before the attack, his brother Brendan said.
Noah Green’s brother Brendan said his brother was very ill the night before the at- tack and sent him an ominous text Thursday, according to The Washington Post.
“‘I’m sorry but I’m just going to go and live and be home- less,” Brendan said his brother told him in an omi- nous text sent the day before Friday’s tragedy, according to the Washington Post.
“Thank you for everything that you’ve done,” the text con- tinued. “I looked up to you when I was a kid. You inspired me a lot.”
She Quit Her Job, And Then Earned Over $10 Million From Her Trade And Travel Course On Teachable
Matt Gaetz Is Said To Face Justice Dept. Inquiry Over Sex With An Underage Girl
Teri Ijeoma announced that she was the top course creator on the Teachable plat- form in 2020, earning over $10 million in revenue for her Trade and Travel course.
“You don’t become one of the top-selling courses on Teach- able by marketing. The course actually has to get people re- sults. You guys have seen the testimonies of my students on my page. These are real people, having real results. That’s what makes our course great.”
She adds, “Now just imag- ine, making money from one of your businesses and then knowing how to trade to mul- tiply the earnings! That’s legacy building!”
Before Ijeoma started her full-time trade and travel jour- ney, she was working as an as- sistant principal at an elementary school. Although she was great at what she did, she knew the vision for her life went beyond the constraints of
quit her job, travel the world, and use her trading income to fund her lifestyle. A few months later, she found herself teaching others how to trade all over the world.
“I didn’t seek to start a class,” Ijeoma shared on the David Never Sleeps show. “I just wanted an exit strategy. While I was traveling, people started asking me to teach them how to trade. I did my first class in Thailand. The people loved it and asked me to do another one. I did my second class in Vietnam.”
When she returned back home to the United States, she received more requests to teach others how to trade. She started off selling tickets for less than $100, attracting more people to her classes than she expected. When her training equaled her teacher salary, Ijeoma knew she wanted to continue teaching others how to trade stocks.
REPRESENTATIVE MATT GAETZ
The investigation into Repre- sentative Matt Gaetz, Repub- lican of Florida, was opened in the final months of the Trump administration under Attorney General William P. Barr.
Representative Matt Gaetz, Republican of Florida and a close ally of former Pres- ident Donald J. Trump, is being investigated by the Jus- tice Department over whether he had a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old and paid for her to travel with him, accord- ing to three people briefed on the matter.
Investigators are examining whether Mr. Gaetz violated federal sex trafficking laws, the people said. A variety of federal statutes make it illegal to in- duce someone under 18 to travel over state lines to engage
in sex in exchange for money or something of value. The Jus- tice Department regularly prosecutes such cases, and of- fenders often receive severe sentences.
It was not clear how Mr. Gaetz met the girl, believed to be 17 at the time of encounters about two years ago that inves- tigators are scrutinizing, ac- cording to two of the people.
The investigation was opened in the final months of the Trump administration under Attorney General William P. Barr, the two people said. Given Mr. Gaetz’s national profile, sen- ior Justice Department officials in Washington — including some appointed by Mr. Trump — were notified of the investigation, the people said.
