Lobbyists for two major prison companies—Corrections Corporation of America and the Geo Group—are serving as top fundraisers for Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.

The implication is that laws governing crime and incarceration will deliver more inmates and profits to private prison companies if Clinton is elected.

This woman is un-fucking-believable, literally.

i hope to hell BLM button-holes Hillary about THIS^ .. if they don't they are giving her a free ride, ignoring
her lying contortions and endless flip-flopping, whenever it suites her, principles be damned. Consistency be damned.
