San Juan mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz and her party are facing fraud charges relating to the embezzlement of over $3 million in federal funds, just months after appearing on CNN and blaming President Trump for mishandling the Puerto Rico hurricane disaster response.Despite the fact that the U.S. government sent emergency workers, supplies and billions of dollars to the territory, its Democrat-allied politicians still pointed a finger at the president — and the left-leaning mainstream media happily spread the “blame Trump” narrative."

Well you see, there's an interesting dynamic going on here. I actually have no qualms to admit when I'm wrong or make a mistake.

Wouldn't it be cool to see others do that?
 
Whoever down there is under FBI investigation, it's no surprise. Corruption in Puerto Rico is more common then corrupution in DC.

Administration of Trump-bashing Puerto Rican mayor reportedly facing FBI corruption probe
Barnini Chakraborty By Barnini Chakraborty | Fox News



The administration of the mayor of San Juan, Puerto Rico, who shot to international fame after criticizing President Trump for not doing enough to help Hurricane Maria victims, is being investigated by the FBI on corruption charges, according a local news outlet.

Mayor Carmen Yulin Cruz and her administration are under fire for allegedly obstructing critical supplies from reaching victims of the category-4 hurricane that leveled much of the tiny U.S. territory nearly nine months ago.

The FBI reportedly launched the investigation following a February lawsuit filed by Yadira Molina, the former director of procurement. Molina claims she was retaliated against for reporting “alleged irregular acts” to the local comptroller.
