      IIRC, Kamala Harris’ DA’S office wanted to go after Mnuchin for financial crimes and Harris told her own office to back off.

      Even better, it was Mnuchin’s job to handle that distribution of 500B dollars leveraged 10-to-1 (so like 5 TRILLION dollars) to companies at the beginning of COVID with zero oversight.
