You said that it’s, you know, forget 20 million, it’s 50 million and this is based on your documents that you’ve seen that we have not seen yet. So can you exp- is it still 50 million? Is it more now? I mean, what do you know?” Mace positioned: “Oh, it’s- it’s staggeringly high. It’s definitely- it’s definitely more than 50 million. It’s staggeringly high.” Mace cited Treasury reports: “I’m not allowed to share the confidential information in the suspicious activity reports sitting at the treasury right now, but the amount of money we are talking about is staggering.” Mace cited media: “And the fact that mainstream media has just ignored this, swept this under the rug and said, all of this is normal. This is probably the most corrupt president in U.S. history. And I don’t say that lightly.” Mace positioned political district: “I mean, I come from a very purple district, but the double standard here is very obvious. There’s a two- two different standards of justice in this country.” Mace closed with mugshot reference: “And, you know, Joe Biden ought to probably have a mugshot when this thing is said and done.
