  6. The depth of the #Trump admin’s #criminal #corruption on display:

    When #DOJ indicted India’s richest man in the final weeks of the #Biden admin, prosecutors described an “elaborate” #bribery scheme involving “corruption & #fraud at the expense of US investors.”

    Now…the DOJ is planning to drop the charges altogether.

    The reversal came after the Indian #billionaire, Gautam Adani, hired a new legal team led by Robert J. Giuffra Jr., one of Trump’s personal lawyers.

  11. It's Corruption Countdown! Bidding has started in the Victorian MP Sale, own your own MP and get _ANYTHING_ you want passed as law and any contracts greenlit, hurry hurry hurry, every bit of legitimacy must go! And at Ca-rayyyzee prices!.. 🤪

    "“Unlimited dark money” will keep flooding into Victorian politics after Labor failed to reach agreement with the Liberals or the Greens about donation reforms the Allan government vowed to fast-track through parliament.

    Victoria is now without caps on political donations or disclosure requirements, months out from the November election after the high court struck down the state’s donation laws last month."

  17. GamersNexus on the Shitstain administration's router ban and the new graft machine; they think one of the endgames (eta: in addition to the obvious ones) is to make end users permanently have to rent routers from ISPs:

  18. The New Republic | Will the Supreme Court Make Bribery Even Easier? by Matt Ford

    If you want to see the dire state of American anti-corruption efforts, look no further than the Supreme Court’s docket. No fewer than three state and local officials are begging the justices to overturn their criminal convictions for various corruption-related offenses. Joining some of their pleas are three public-corruption defendants who had their cases tossed by the justices as well.

    At issue here is whether otherwise lawful campaign donations to a candidate can amount to quid pro quo bribery. Prosecutors and juries in these cases answered that question in the affirmative, as did the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals. But the Supreme Court may opt to use one or all of the cases to further bulldoze the government’s ability to police corruption among public officials.

    All three of the active petitioners are Ohio officials—two of whom were participants in the Ohio nuclear bribery scandal a few years ago, and one who was convicted of more pedestrian corruption charges. We’ll start with the boring one since it is more helpfully illustrative of the unsavory dynamic that these officials want to protect.

  20. Shameless #bribery; further evidence that #Trump and his horde believe they are untouchable. Why #grift in secret if you believe you cannot be stopped?

    "In a document quietly filed with the Federal Election Commission on Friday night, #MAGA Inc., the primary Super PAC supporting President Trump, revealed that it received a $5 million donation from #Crypto.com on January 23, 2026. The donation was made in the name of Crypto.com’s parent company, Foris Dax, Inc. 25 days later, on February 17, the Trump administration’s Commodities Futures Trading Commission (#CFTC), intervened on Crypto.com’s behalf in high-stakes lawsuit in federal court."

  23. The idea of directly paying residents of #Greenland, an overseas territory of #Denmark, offers one explanation of how the #US might attempt to "buy" the island of ~57,000 people, despite authorities' insistence in Copenhagen & Nuuk that Greenland is #NotForSale.

    The tactic is among various plans being discussed by the #Trump admin for acquiring Greenland, including potential use of the US #military. But it risks coming off as overly #transactional & even #degrading….
