investigate if president carter was using it to hide some political slush fund because where was all that money going out of the business? yeah, it turns out there wasn't a slush fund. it was billy! billy was not a model employee of the peanut warehouse. but that was -- i mean, that was not exactly a scandal at that point given what everybody had come to learn about the president's beloved younger brother. and the republicans in congress convinced the justice department to spend six months and a ton of money trying to turn that into something, but that was how it ended. that was peanutgate, that was the big scandal. and that, in the modern era, is the closest we have ever come as a country to a presidential scandal involving the dispensation of the president's personal assets and personal finances during his time running for the presidency and being the president. that's as close to a scandal as we have ever come. and that was a pipsqueak's worth of presidential assets.
