    in this case it is a scam but looks like this is a real thing:

    Among their clients was Joseph Schwartz, a nursing home operator convicted of tax evasion in April 2025. Schwartz paid Wohl and Burkman $960,000, although a White House official said that no one at the White House had spoken with either Wohl or Burkman about Schwartz's case. Schwartz terminated their services, and later secured a pardon after enlisting another lobbying firm

    If I still had any maga in my life, I'd be posting this. Thankfully, last one died when COVID wasn't real and was also simultaneously going to go away one day, like a miracle.
