    No. This guy quit ICE in 2019, started his own company, then became a member of Bidens transition team, THEN went for this $87 million contract and then was found to have a conflict of interest due to this $87 million deal that was done immediately following his stint on the Biden Transition team. It’s all laid out in the article. Nothing to do with Trump other than the fact he had continued to work for ICE(since 2008 )during Trumps admin.

    From the article you didn’t read:


    While on the transition team, Lorenzen-Strait was the managing director of Lorenzen-Strait Consulting Services, which he launched after leaving ICE in 2019. The firm is described on his LinkedIn page as providing clients “with seasoned consulting services and government relations in the practices areas of homeland security, health and human services, and federal procurement.” However, Family Endeavors was a client during Lorenzen-Strait's time on the transition team, which began in September 2020 and went into January.

    He was named Family Endeavors’s senior director for migrant services and federal affairs on Jan. 20. As such, he acquired government contracts for Endeavors, which, up until this point, had received no more than $2 million in a single contract for tasks.


    I wouldn’t worry too much though. Seems a lot of people just jumped to bash Trump and didn’t read the article either.

    One wonders how the great art talent of Hunter Biden went undiscovered for so long.

    Show below are two art works. One by a Hunter Biden and one by the famous artist Congo (a chimp). Not that obvious which is which.

    Did you miss the fact that the Administration didn't bother getting bids from other sources?

    Or how about, he is only banned from working on ICE.

    Selective reading much?

    So it’s bad to give contracts to people associated with a transition team? You sure about that lol

    Biden. AFTER he was awarded a no competition contract, as a separate contractor and the amount was 12 times as much as it previously was.

    Your selective reasoning is showing, again.

    Seems like Biden caught a grifter..... and he's being cancelled instead of rewarded, like under the previous administration.... I'm fine with this...

    No, 'Biden' did not. Read the actual article. In addition, the banning is for future contracts.

    The attempts to actually factually change the article from what it is, really explains a lot about the people who respond. Please don't be one of them.

    The first one looks like wallpaper from a movie set in a cheap movie.
