American banks have been refusing to transfer money for Somali refugees for the last year.
So they’ve been moving it out the fashion way, in paper bags.
Called hawalas, those using the Seattle-Tacoma airport (Sea-Tac) have drawn attention with the amounts they handle, “couriers carrying as much as $2 million board commercial flights at Sea-Tac.”
A former Seattle cop did some digging on the hawalas who moved the most cash and discovered “All ten of them on welfare benefits. DSHS benefits…It’s fraud. Straight up fraud- every one of them.”

New York’s Gabriel Sherman is reporting that in addition to being a ratings and financial failure, Megyn Kelly’s interview with Donald Trump has resulted in her losing most of the leverage she had in her upcoming contract negotiations.
Fox executives were willing to consider 9 million viewers a success, but Kelly’s supposedly mainstream appeal didn’t translate to the parent network, and she only netted 4.8 million viewers. It was, as one Fox insider told Sherman, “not good for her at all.”
In fact, her boss Roger Ailes was apparently so tickled by the fact that he would not have to pay her a reported $25 million to remain at Fox News that he was heard “snickering” in a Thursday meeting when the special was mentioned

But it’s illegal for American citizens to carry around lots of cash?
The fuckin cops can confiscate it and the citizen has to “prove” it’s clean.
We’re living in Bizarro World.

Wow! Welfare benefits are better than I ever imagined…
Ah, that’s going to hurt them now that all the criminals know that they have huge amounts of cash in their possession. I see headlines coming soon: Somali refugee robbed of huge amount of cash, beaten by homeless mob.
