14 | Anton, Michael | White House, Office of the National Security Advisor | Assistant to the President and Deputy National Security Advisor for Strategic Communications and Speechwriting | view form | In reference to Sources of Income: Writer for Claremont Review of Books. In addition to pieces attributed to his given name in the Claremont Review of Books (CRB), Anton wrote four pro-Trump pieces under the pseudonym "Publius Decius Mus" (sometimes shortened to Decius) including the widely-circulate provocative essay, "The Flight 93 Election." Anton's authorship of the Decius pieces was not revealed until Feb 2, 2016 when he was outed by the Weekly Standard (http://www.weeklystandard.com/the-anonymous-pro-trump-decius-now-works-inside-the-white-house/article/2006623). Anton, under the Decius pseudonym, was also a "senior contributing editor" for the website "American Greatness" (https://amgreatness.com/staff/) until January 2017. He was also one of the founding contributors. The American Greatness website footer claims copyright from 2012-2017, but the site launched in late 2016. It appears to be a relaunch of the pro-Trump blog, "The Journal of American Greatness"(http://journalofamericangreatness.blogspot.com/) commonly refered to as "J.A.G." or "JAG." JAG began sometime in 2016 (likely February). The blog stopped posting in June 2016 and locked their archives. The "JAG Recovered" blog (http://jagrecovered.blogspot.com) reputedly provides the JAG's back catalog from cached pages. A September 2016 post includes of work attributed to the original blog owners post-jag includes links to Decius's contributions to the American Greatness site and the CRB. More investigation is needed to determine if Anton shared ownership of the blog or site, if the blog/site provided revenue through sponsorship, merchandising, etc., and if those revenue streams would be over $5,000 for each involved party. At present, the CRB contributor page for Michael Anton lists 13 articles(http://www.claremont.org/crb/contributor-list/49/). His contributor page may have been unavailable at time of review (https://web.archive.org/web/20170106040029/http://www.claremont.org/crb/contributor-list/49/). |

Weird that you can draw a 45K salary from what look like pretty pedestrian social media posts with only 83 likes for the company's page on Facebook Also did social media for Battleground LLC, a campaign consulting firm. (Perhaps Battleground and CH Media are differentiated entities bc of Campaign Finance?) Also lists $13,333 from the Trump national campaign as Nevada Communications Director. |

Show less Curt Byers Curt Byers 10:06 PM Aug 28 Elaine Chao has been a Wells Fargo director since 2011--during which time high pressure incentive plans resulted in staff creating over 2 million credit card and other financial services accounts without customers' knowledge or permission, resulting in the termination of over 5,300 employees. More recently, after a new CEO and promises of deep culture changes, Wells Fargo was caught surreptitiously modifying terms of customers' mortgages--at least 100 times in one district alone. And as recently as August of 2017 subpoenas were issued for records when it was determined that Wells Fargo sold over 500,000 customers car insurance they didn't need. The deadline for those records submission was August 22, 2017. Elizabeth Warren argues that the serial waves of corrupt and fraudulent practice of such magnitude is a criminal failure of corporate governance. How likely is any action being taken on this issue by the House of Representatives when Elaine Chao's husband is the leader of the Republican majority. http://money.cnn.com/2017/08/02/investing/wells-fargo-subpoena-auto-insurance/index.html ---- Mortgages money.cnn.com/2017/06/15/investing/wells-fargo-mortgage...lawsuit/index.html ---- Timeline of original fraudulent accounts scandal http://abcnews.go.com/Business/timeline-wells-fargo-accounts-scandal/story?id=42231128 Show less |

Probably that one big client, right?Also helped coordinate volunteers for the 2016 RNC in Cleveland. Has a fair amount of credit card debts with high rates on two cards, plus IRS "installment agreement" liabilities (I don't know what that means) form 2012. Was paid 41K for her work on the Trump Inaugural.

Human inactivity is also leading to climate change.” |
