Remember when Donald stroked a yuuuge Trump Foundation check (illegal) for Bleach Blonde Bimbo Bondi a few days before they announced they wouldn't be joining on Trump U lawsuit?
Well - the paybacks & corruption continue
WASHINGTON — As a top aide to Florida’s attorney general, Carlos Muniz helped defend the office’s decision to sit out legal action against Trump University. Now the president is naming him to be the top lawyer in the U.S. Education Department.
President Donald Trump has announced his intent to nominate Muniz to serve as general counsel to Education Secretary Betsy DeVos. The Senate would then consider the nomination of the Republican lawyer.
Emails from 2013 show that Muniz, chief of staff to Attorney General Pam Bondi for three years, was included in discussions about student complaints alleging fraud with Trump’s namesake real-estate seminars.
Muniz, now in private practice, also has been the lead attorney defending Florida State University in a lawsuit by a former student who said the school failed to investigate after she said she was sexually assaulted by the Jameis Wintston, star quarterback of the Seminoles’ 2013 national championship football team. Winston was never charged with a crime.
An investigation by the Education Department’s Office of Civil Rights is still underway, presenting a potential conflict of interest if Muniz is confirmed.
