This first pic is the image anon posted much earlier today.
It sent me on a dig for more info, and I found this NYPost article which corroberates the post.

This prompted me to look into fund raising activities re: Comet PingPong.
That lead to finding this:
Over the years, Alefantis has also become well-known for his grass-roots philanthropy, though his approach is decidedly low-key.
“I try to support a lot of things in the community — usually schools and the arts, but some gay causes as well.” One such cause is Food and Friends’ Dining Out for Life. This year, both Buck’s and Comet will donate 50 percent of every bill to the cause.

John Scoffield peaked my interest. He's a former comms director for the House of Rep's Appropriations Committee. More
recently he has been a well paid lobbyist, while his wife took up a position with the House Appropriations Committee similar to the one he held. The firm
John joined after leaving the App. Com. is none other than the Podesta group. So while this relationship looks all the world like it should cause
some ethical issues as well as fairly obvious conflict of interest. (see image 4). However, up until recently, working with such a stalwart member of the Warshington community as The Podesta Group, no real hash was made of it. Maybe it has to do with the fact that John and his recently estranged wife appear to be quite
the foodies (image, sauce https://www.washingtonian.com/2015/01/07/the-washingtonian-guide-to-gop-dc/ ). I found it interesting how a Comey link to Comet PingPong linked to a Charity whose Board of Directors includes a long standing Congressional Staffer/Lobbyist working for the Podesta Group.
More recently, John, and some former high ranking House of Rep staffers, formed S3.

John Scofield has nearly twenty years of experience working for and with Congress at the highest levels. He spent almost a decade in senior positions with the House Appropriations Committee, coordinating political strategy and messaging for the Committee and Subcommittee leaderships. Prior to forming Shockey Scofield Solutions (S-3 Group), he was a Principal at the Podesta Group, managing a number of corporate and non-profit clients, working across multiple committees and issue areas, including national security, financial services, and energy and environmental policy.
More recently, Scofield led campaigns aimed at using the annual budget process to combat onerous regulatory proposals in several different agencies, including the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Environmental Protection Agency.

In 2005, Scofield's partner at S3, Jeff Shockey, left…to become the staff director for the House Intelligence Committee under its new chairman, Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.).
This has led me to consider John's U.S.D.A./EPA lobbying efforts. USDA→CORN←>fuel←EPA.
Which led me to thinking about Entergy. Didn't POTUS tweet Entergy at one time and anons first thought it a purposeful misspelling. Haven't tried hard to find it, but this dig went off in all kinds of directions. If someone wanted to help with that I'd appreciate it. Not sure where this goes if anywhere. But it feels like I've found an onion and am pealing it.
Yep, sorry. Copied from doc I wrote in notepad. Slipped my mind.
