Unending Slime

      I have to say just how much it galls me that the Commissioner of Social Security is a man as deficient in character as Frank Bisignano. Within a few months of leaving his old position as CEO of Fiserv, the new company management accused him of what amounts to a “pump and dump” scheme netting him hundreds of millions of dollars. In any other Administration Bisignano would have been forced to resign. In the Trump Administration it’s just another in an unending series of stories demonstrating how slimy many of Trump’s appointees are.

If you can see that… and I can see that… what is wrong with 35-40% of Americans that they cannot? Explain it to me because those folks have tied a heavy rock to our leg and we’re all going to drown together

Charles, you’re giving slime a bad reputation.

Frank is a crook and has spent his entire career embellishing his accomplishments. Ssa employees need to come to terms with the man running the agency is a liar and can’t be trusted

Sounds like the perfect COSS and CEO of the IRS to harm the 99% and benefit groter 1%

He likes the corruption and deficiency of character. He recognizes it.

He claimed in a meeting he was knighted by the pope. A quick Google search tells you popes don’t knight people.

With the Trump administration, becoming a pump-and-dump near billionare is a badge of honor. In Trump's world, this means he isn't a "looser" because he got away with getting rich by fleecing the lower classes.

Hopefully, the lawsuits will still be ongoing into the next presidency so he can get his comeuppance. Though, even that isn't likely since the ultra rich in this country are immune to consequences no matter who is in the White House.

Funny, didn't bother you that the president you supported took bribes from a Ukraine energy company, from China and other foreign governments and entities. If we go back further, bet it didn't bother you that Hillary's supposedly charitable foundation was taking in gobs of money from foreign governments. The fact that those dried up immediately when she lost the election should give you a clue that they were buying influence. Oh, there's so many things about these folks that should bother you. So please spare me your indignation about the current administration. You have supported and voted for much, much worse.

12:55, learn to use Google. Papal knighthoods have long existed, tracing back at least to the Knights Templar in the 12th century, and several Pontifical orders exist to this day. A cursory Google search shows Bisignano was named a Knight of the Pontifical Equestrian Order of St. Gregory the Great in 2015.
