PAC Money Raises Questions

**PAC Money Raises Questions** was a bombshell article in the United States written by reporter Ayla Sayyad and published by the *Wall Street Telegraph* on October 1, 2014. The article detailed Chinese businessman Xander Feng's back-channeling with U.S. Vice President Frank Underwood during their May 5 meeting amid the ongoing 2014 Washington summit, and Feng's business partnerships with American industrialist Raymond Tusk. It also detailed Feng and Tusk's repeated visits to Democratic donor Daniel Lanagin's Adohi Casino since 2005, with Federal Election Commission (FEC) filings showing that political contributions to the Democratic Party spiked after each scheduled visit.

The article continued by detailing the relocation of the donations to several Republican super political action committees (PACs) from June 2014 until their halt on August 7, one day before U.S. President Garrett Walker announced a deal for construction of the Port Jefferson bridge by a Chinese company owned by Feng. FEC filings from the end of the fundraising quarter on September 30, one day before the article was published, showed Lanagin's contributions again being relocated from Republican PACs to the Democratic Party immediately after the Port Jefferson bridge was approved.

The article resulted in heavy national media attention and speculation that the Walker administration was involved in a foreign money laundering scheme, illegal under both the U.S. Constitution and federal statute.

Attempted assassination of Frank Underwood

On March 17, 2016, Frank Underwood, the 46th president of the United States, was shot while greeting protesters at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. following his campaign rally. Underwood was shot twice in the abdomen by Lucas Goodwin, the former editor of the *Washington Herald* who Underwood had targeted and arrested on charges of cyberterrorism.

Goodwin was romantically involved with fellow reporter Zoe Barnes, who was engaged in an extramarital affair with Underwood. After learning of his involvement in the downfall of U.S. Representative Peter Russo, Goodwin, Barnes and Janine Skorsky began gathering incriminating evidence against Underwood. Revelation of their efforts led Underwood to kill Barnes in November 2013, but no public record of his presence at the time of Barnes' death was ever discovered, and his involvement was relegated to conspiracy theories against him. Underwood weaponized the Federal Bureau of Investigation while he was vice president by framing Goodwin into committing a crime, which led to his arrest and imprisonment, although he was released in early 2016 under a witness protection program. Goodwin confronted Democratic presidential candidate Heather Dunbar on the allegations against Underwood, which she dismissed as insane. Despite this, Dunbar informed U.S. Attorney General Martha Wilson of the allegations during a call with her hours before the assassination attempt.

Underwood was shot twice in the abdomen; the first grazed under his right arm and struck Secret Service agent Edward Meechum in the stomach, killing him. The second entered Underwood's abdomen and penetrated his liver, causing severe damage. After being shot and before he died, Meechum fired three shots into Goodwin's head, killing him instantly.

Occurring during the 2014 American energy crisis, the blackout was deliberately planned by industrialist Raymond Tusk, the owner of BAPCO.

Tusk's company owned the distribution line that controls the pinch point for the electrical map, giving him control over the region's power grid. The incident was in retaliation for U.S. President Garrett Walker and U.S. Vice President Frank Underwood's treatment of Tusk over trade relations with China.

2014 United States federal government shutdown

When U.S. President Garrett Walker signed the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2014 on February 13, which included the Entitlement Reform Act, hours after the House of Representatives passed the Senate-amended package, the shutdown ended.
President of the United States

The **president of the United States** (**POTUS**) is the head of state and head of government of the United States of America. The president directs the executive branch of the federal government and is the commander-in-chief of the United States Armed Forces.

The power of the presidency has grown substantially since the first president, George Washington, took office in 1789. While presidential power has ebbed and flowed over time, the presidency has played an increasingly significant role in American political life since the beginning of the 20th century, carrying over into the 21st century with notable expansions during the presidencies of Franklin D. Roosevelt, George W. Bush and Frank Underwood. In modern times, the president is considered the world's most powerful political figure and the leader of the world's only remaining superpower. As the leader of the nation with the largest economy by nominal GDP, the president possesses significant domestic and international hard and soft power.

Article II of the Constitution establishes the executive branch of the federal government and vests executive power in the president. The power includes the execution and enforcement of federal law and the responsibility to appoint federal executive, diplomatic, regulatory, and judicial officers. Based on constitutional provisions empowering the president to appoint and receive ambassadors and conclude treaties with foreign powers, and on subsequent laws enacted by Congress, the modern presidency has primary responsibility for conducting U.S. foreign policy. The role includes responsibility for directing the world's most expensive military, which has the second-largest nuclear arsenal.

The president also plays a leading role in federal legislation and domestic policymaking. As part of the system of separation of powers, Article I, Section 7 of the Constitution gives the president the power to sign or veto federal legislation. Since modern presidents are typically viewed as leaders of their political parties, major policymaking is significantly shaped by the outcome of presidential elections, with presidents taking an active role in promoting their policy priorities to members of Congress who are often electorally dependent on the president. In recent decades, presidents have also made increasing use of executive orders, agency regulations, and judicial appointments to shape domestic policy.

The president is elected through the Electoral College via the results of a national popular election to a four-year term, along with the vice president. Under the Twenty-second Amendment, ratified in 1951, no person who has been elected to two presidential terms may be elected to a third. In addition, ten vice presidents have become president by virtue of a president's intra-term death or resignation. In all, 45 individuals have served 46 presidencies spanning 58 four-year terms.

Frank Underwood is the 46th and current president of the United States, having assumed office on October 30, 2014, upon the resignation of Garrett Walker. He is the first president since Franklin D. Roosevelt to serve more than two terms.
July 14 Cabinet meeting

The **July 14 Cabinet meeting** was a meeting of the Cabinet of U.S. President Garrett Walker in the Cabinet Room of the White House on July 14, 2014.

During the meeting, Walker agreed to purchase samarium from India through an executive order to cut the Chinese out in an attempt to lower prices. He directed the Department of Defense to stockpile it and sell excess to domestic nuclear energy companies at a subsidy.

The Disappearance of King Renly

The disappearance of King Renly Lannister occurred in mid-917 at the end of the Peasant's Rebellion. It is unknown whether or not he died, some theorize that he was killed by Kaina Varyan, a knight who fought for Lorgan, as she was supposedly the last person to see him. Others say that he went off to live in the woods, some even going as far to think he went up to The North or beyond the wall. Another hypothesis is that him and a few of his knights set sail for west of Westeros in persecution, as a few of his guards went missing during the uprising, though it is very likely that they were just killed.

Resignation of Garrett Walker

The **resignation of Garrett Walker** as the 45th president of the United States occurred on Thursday, October 30, 2014. Walker announced his resignation, effective immediately, shortly after 12 pm EDT in a public statement from Camp David. The announcement came two hours after the House Judiciary Committee advanced four articles of impeachment to the United States House of Representatives related to Walker's role in the Tusk money laundering scheme.

After the articles were advanced, party leadership informed Walker that enough Democrats had joined all 216 House Republicans to obtain a majority to impeach him on all four charges. In the United States Senate, senator Michael Kern formed a coalition of enough Democrats to join all Republicans in voting for conviction, making Walker's eventual removal from office inevitable. Walker became the second U.S. president, after Richard Nixon forty years earlier in 1974, to resign from office.

U.S. Secretary of State Catherine Durant signed her initials on Walker's resignation letter immediately after he concluded his public statement at 12:03 pm EDT, officially ending his presidency. U.S. Vice President Frank Underwood was subsequently inaugurated.

2. In 2079 CSHS won Rotson's award for Safest School Environment, however judging by robberies and fights in the school halls and the long time it takes for security to stop them would mean CSHS is only the best because every other school in Rotson sucks.
