No wonder tRump and this guy got along with each other. He is a scumbag. People with nothing he gives less then nothing to them, then claims it makes him feel good. WTF. This guy is a Project 2025 leader and they are all about taking the US back to 1840. Hugs. Scottie
May 13, 2024 Trump Corruption, Trump cultists
“So I always keep this fake Hollywood money in my car so when a homeless person asks for money, then I give him like a fake $5 bill, so I feel good about myself, they feel good. And then, when they go to use it, they get arrested so I’m actually like helping clean up the community. You know, getting them off the street.” – Former Trump aide and Project 2025 leader Johnny McEntee, in a TikTok video posted by the The Right Stuff, the MAGA dating app he founded in 2022. McEntee appeared here last week when he vowed that porn will banned during a second Trump term.
Johnny McEntee, senior advisor to Project 2025, claims he distributes fake money to homeless people so that when they use it, they will be arrested.

He asserts that he does this to help "clean up the street."

This is evil.
This is cruel.
Getting people “comfortable” with all of that is the goal.
I don’t want to live in a world where this is ok. Do you? https://t.co/J4yze5Cta0Johnny McEntee allegedly forged the order withdrawing US troops from Afghanistan and Somalia.

And “the only part that looked anything like an official presidential order was Trump's signature.”
Well, McEntee just told @pablofindsout how he *mastered forging Trump’s signature*: pic.twitter.com/DmB0OQD5c6Johnny McEntee, who is currently under investigation by the Department of Homeland Security for what a source says are serious financial crimes, had been granted a permanent security clearance before he was abruptly fired Monday. https://t.co/WcOhEgGgMd

Watch the clip for the full smarmy boastfulness.
He probably deducted the “donations” as a charitable expense
If true, he’s guilty of passing counterfeit money and he just admitted it in a recording. I can’t imagine that he won’t be investigated by the Treasury Department or whatever body handles counterfeiting.
So either he’s lying to own the libs or he’s about to get to the “find out” stage of fucking around.
The Secret Service
Formerly a department at DOJ, now under the umbrella of DHS.
I can’t believe I’m gonna say this, so please forgive me.. film money is distinctly different than counterfiet money. It’s designed to avoid being considered counterfeit (it needs to be a percentage bigger or smaller so it *can’t* be legally considered counterfiet money and the artwork is slightly different). Countefeit money is designed to pass as the real thing; Hollywood money isn’t. That’s going to be his counter argument if he gets hauled up for this, I’d stake a good penny on.
Having said that, ths is unfathomably cruel. A store clerk or a police officer probably wouldn’t know the difference, so the poor person is going to suffer. If justice is real, whether he argues he’s handing out monopoly money, the intent is to cause harm, and he should have the book thrown at him.
*edit*
I just saw Doggy Daddy’s comment below, so thankfully it makes the first half of this moot.
These guys really don’t understand why the rest of us find their actions horrific. It’s not that they refuse to be empathetic with other humans – they can’t, it’s not possible for them.
It’s not a decision – they’re unable to understand what we mean by the words “cruel” or “heartless”. They hear the words – but they don’t mean the same thing to them. To them, “cruel” means “something the bleeding hearts don’t like”, not “this is a horrible thing to inflict on another person”.
Which is why we need to set up a gated and locked community for them, perhaps on a big chunk of federal land in the West, where only people who have no empathy live, and they can work it all out together. Send them food, let them get incoming internet, and leave them to it
Cruel – check
Mean Spirited – check
Cold Heated – check
Entitled – check
Evil – check
Checks all the MAGA boxes
It makes me wonder how many right- wing morons clicked like on his video?They probably thought that was a real knee-slapper. To me this ranks right up there with Governor Kristie Noem bragging about shooting her puppy.
If I remember correctly, George Floyd was summarily executed by police for, allegedly, passing a fake $20 bill.
So it is only fair this idiot gets equal treatment, no?
Lock him up!
“Can you go to jail for giving someone fake money?
Even a first-time counterfeiting charge can result in a misdemeanor or felony and some jail time. Prosecutors can charge individuals with forgery if they possess or use counterfeit items with the intent to defraud another person. It can be as simple as using fake money or as complex as counterfeiting an official seal.”
