Wheels of Fortune for Veterans

Leave it to Florida to turn all the patriotic support for veterans into something corrupt. Florida gambling laws state that parlors with slot-type games, bingo, and the like are only legal if the majority of the proceeds go to charity. So a group called Allied Veterans of the World ran about 50 parlors around the state under the guise that they were raising money for veterans charities. But a five-year investigation found that of the $290 million the group made, only $6 million made it to charitable organizations. And even in Florida, that’s nowhere near a majority. Then-Lt.

We think one of the most humorous “parts” of this scandal is Anthony Weiners handle that he uses online: Carlos Danger. Really?

Seems Anthony Weiner just can’t keep his fly shut. In August 2016 his third sexting scandal reared its ugly head and his wife announced she would leave him — finally.
