#pre-corruption
Hakeem Jeffries pre-surrendering to Trump, two months before the new Democratic-led Congress takes office, is a bold strategy. Let’s see how it pans out.

Imagine spending all that time and money getting these assholes into power, only for them to declare that stopping corruption isn’t a priority.

Democrats really need to be pre-planning sweeping anti-corruption, government accountability, institution-strengthening, and democracy-protecting reforms for immediate implementation in 2029. This kind of stuff is happening every day and cannot be happening at all.
At the risk of stating the obvious, there functionally are no laws that bind the president in a system where the they can get away with violating the law for months or years before a court gets around to saying “you can’t do that.”
For the last seven months straight, the U.S. government has refused to process immigrant visas for nationals of 75 countries around the world; including visas for spouses of U.S. citizens.

Today, a federal judge ruled the policy flagrantly illegal.

That's my conclusion after this lengthy discussion. Really low trust of tech billionaires and their cronyism with politicians makes it a vector for pre-existing concerns about affordability and corruption.

Donald Trump wants to give his cronies and enablers blanket immunity for any criminal conduct they engaged in as part of his administration or in their corporate activities.

This won't prevent their malfeasance from coming to light. They will be held to account for the cost of their corruption.
Trump vows to protect Musk, floats pre-emptive staff pardons
The president is preparing for a combative final two years of his term.

Hakeem Jeffries pre-empting clawing back the stolen billions
Hakeem Jeffries on choosing, before he’s elected speaker or majority whip, to NOT do anything about corruption in govt
Hakeem Jeffries on NOT prosecuting Musk or restoring what he destroyed.
This is the wrong conclusion.

This is what Democrats did during the Biden administration. They thought that if they just focused on kitchen table issues that fascism would go away on its own.

Wrong. They need to go to jail.

I am heavily involved in my local Democratic Party and corruption is a huge concern for most ppl. My nephew voted for the first time ever because he was so appalled by this admin’s corruption. There are multiple pre-election polls that found corruption is the most important issue for respondents.

“Nearly 70% of voters disapprove of how Trump has handled price rises and the cost of living, according to the final nationwide pre-election survey conducted by the FT and Focaldata. Among independents, the percentage was higher, at 77%”.

Corruption concerns also polling at 69%

Trump wants to restore the pre-Maiden Ukraine where Paul Manafort was Minister of Corruption

"Whatever the losses investors might suffer... "
"There was still one person who still profited: Donald Trump."

This was pre-POTUS Trump.

Today's Trump is rolling in corruption and the money.

Happily, Post-POTUS Trump is where he's destined for 'the great fall', taking a tainted family with him.

Blaming social media sounds like pro-AI neoliberal cope. This sounds convincing to me. They play into pre-existing concerns about affordability, inequality, corruption, oligarchy etc. www.natesilver.net/p/why-does-e...

Once we (hopefully) take control of Congress, can we pass legislation to restrict a president’s pardons?

So much corruption right now and Trump pre-promising pardons to the criminals, including Elon. It currently makes no legal sense.

Stop ICE, stop the corruption, meaningful healthcare relief, tax the rich, get rid of pre-emotive pardons, protect voting rights, protect women’s rights, alter the Supreme Court and get rid of Citizens United.

You should refuse to vote for Jeffries as Speaker if he continues to pre-clear the Trump Administration of any investigation for its world historic corruption. If you vote for Jeffries, it means your words are meaningless

Bud, pre-election surveys show the exact opposite of what you claimed.

Even in the Oct. 30 Guardian/Harris poll on corruption, 36% of voters named cost of living as their #1 issue, with corruption second:

Government corruption a top issue for US midterm voters, exclusive poll finds
Harris poll for Guardian finds 76% believe officials care more about self-enrichment than helping everyday Americans

almec switched parties after being jailed on corruption charges. duchess satine kryze was jailed in a coup, and attempted to run for senate during the rigged recall election from jail before her assassination. the title of mand’alor was revived under pre vizsla and passed to maul then bo-katan kryze

Don't overindex on the dumb morning Joe clip, literally everything else he has been putting out (and also pre-empted by Joe at the start of the clip) is that house dems are going to focus on oversight and the "not revenge" bit is followed by calls for accountability and anti-corruption probes lol

The biggest threat by far is the staggering corruption and criminality at the top of business and politics that has led to genocide abroad, concentration camps at home, child sex trafficking and wealth inequality that is worse than pre-revolutionary France.
The real threat, in Americans’ eyes, seems to be coming from the inside, as huge majorities remain concerned over data centers encroaching on their communities, AI-driven job loss, and other harms borne from the unregulated technology.
The 'AI Race' Against China Is a Dangerous, Dishonest Narrative
AI hype has merged with “China threat” hysteria, yielding disingenuous rhetoric that powers the current unregulated, breakneck AI buildout.
