Supreme Court wipes out anti-corruption law that bars officials from taking gifts for past favors.

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Wednesday struck down part of a federal anti-corruption law that makes it a crime for state and local officials to take gifts valued at more than $5,000 from a donor who had previously been awarded lucrative contracts or other government benefits thanks to the efforts of the official.

The ruling was 6/3 broken down along ideological lines. This from a court that thinks it’s ok to take hundreds of thousands of dollars from billionaires as gifts

I hate to say it but this is a worse decision than Dobbs. If we can’t hold public officials responsible for their greed then we’re really screwed.
Complete self interest.

As leader of the global Zionist I am offended by your insinuation. I sent your post to my colleagues and they suggested some reading that they highly recommend.

Take the Election they know people are going to be opposed to each other by who they support. Both candidates are Zionist puppets. Who are the Zionist? The Zionist run the Financial system, Entertainment, Media and they are among political system as well.

Ok. Well, I don't know about all that, but if that's a conspiracy-minded way to say, "Your only choice is getting fucked with either a red or blue dildo," then I approve.

I doubt we would consider the same stuff as research worthy.

But hey, how about them justices!? Making sure that they can keep raking in the cash!
Poor impulse control is also a sign. It might still respond to penicillin. Anyway I have to go and run the political, acting and mafia structures of the world. Must be weird to hate so many but I’ll manage to get over my worry for you.

You just said it isn't solid.

This reply isn't relevant to the thread topic (my apologies to the OP) but applies to the "research" suggestion you posted about Global Zionists. It speaks to the credibility of any sources you'd believe, given your views about something as well-sourced as the moon.
