Summary
Trump has weakened U.S. anti-corruption safeguards, alarming experts.
He paused enforcement of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, limited prosecutions under the Foreign Agents Registration Act, and dismantled a DOJ unit targeting kleptocrats.
Trump also pardoned convicted ex-Governor Rod Blagojevich and ordered corruption charges against NYC Mayor Eric Adams to be dropped, prompting DOJ resignations.
Watchdogs warn these moves signal an open door for corruption.
Threaten to open?! It’s like the Panama Canal of criminality.
Right? If what happens now is pre-open floodgates, I cannot imagine what it will be like once they open.
Uh, this is a feature, not a bug
Well I’m no expert, but it feels like the floodgates are already open.
Too late bruh
That’s NOT True! PROTECTING Corrupt Officials PLAINLY and OPENLY is GOOD BUSINESS! REAL Corruption is getting a Job in CHYNA (unless you’re Elon Musk who has access to ALL OUR NATIONAL SECRETS!)!
