The Supreme Court just legalized bribery—full stop. Conman Trump can now accept a private jet or a suitcase of cash after doing a favor and call it a “gratuity.”This is mafia logic in robes. They didn’t drain the swamp—they paved it in gold. #SCOTUS #LegalizedCorruption www.salon.com/2025/05/19/h...
How the Supreme Court enabled Donald Trump’s Mile High Bribe

Myth #4. “Wealth trickles down.”

Reality: After half a century of this experiment, the wealth didn’t trickle down — it flowed upward. Inequality widened while workers’ share of prosperity collapsed.

Detail: insulin was discovered and developed entirely through publicly funded research. It was public science, not a private-sector innovation

Ironically, over time insulin became heavily commercialized, and today a few corporations control much of the global supply.

#StateCapture was already bad in the USA with #legalizedbribery and #legalizedcorruption and now it's set to get worse.
Good to see the Times picking up on a theme some of us have been hammering for a while: Trump's tariffs, and especially an opaque exemption process, will be an engine of massive crony capitalism 1/ www.nytimes.com/2024/11/23/u...
Trump’s Trade Agenda Could Benefit Friends and Punish Rivals
Donald Trump has a record of pardoning favored companies from tariffs. Companies are once again lining up to try to influence him.

Myth #3: Capitalism self-regulates through competition.

Reality: Without strong regulation, monopolies, exploitation, and unethical practices thrive. “Competition” often collapses into market capture and lobbying power.

Myth #2: Capitalism rewards hard work and merit.

Reality: Wealth accumulation in capitalism depends more on ownership and inheritance than effort or talent. Productivity gains rarely translate into fair wages for workers.

Our country has taken away the freedoms and rights of millions.

How?

#LegalizedCorruption

We don't have legalized healthcare. We don't have legalized rights for women or minorities.

America has legalized corruption to keep the rich uber rich and the poor starving to death.

There is EVERYTHING illegal about what Felon Husk is doing. However, the POTUS is allowing it and he has immunity… you know, he’s ABOVE the law. So…illegal shit has become LEGAL. Right?? Yeah.

Elon Musk gave two $1 million checks during a key judicial race in WI.

It’s not technically illegal.
But it’s not right

When the system is rewritten for billionaires corruption becomes legal by design.

Make congressional insider trading illegal. Make all stock trading by members of Congress and their families.

The House and Senate are back in session this week.

Who else thinks it's time to ban members of Congress from trading stocks?

The stock portfolios of more than two dozen members of Congress outperformed the market in 2024.

This isn't due to luck or skill. Lawmakers can use privileged information to trade stocks while they’re supposed to be working for you.

Make no mistake, it’s legalized corruption.

$10 million is wealth; period. A career politician should not be able to accrue such wealth. That Congresspeople trade stocks while voting/crafting legislation directly affecting their own portfolio is #legalizedcorruption.

And that you call him "Joe" tells me you are open to hearing none of this.

Over 50 members of Congress hold a combined $10.9 million in stock in military contractors.

These companies receive hundreds of billions annually from defense spending legislation passed by those same members of Congress.

Make no mistake, this is legalized corruption.
