A woman donates $1 million to Trump’s MAGA Inc.

Weeks later, her son — convicted of federal tax crimes and ordered to repay more than $4 million — receives a presidential pardon from Donald Trump.

Even more striking: the pardon request itself reportedly highlighted the family’s political donations.

This is not necessarily corruption in the criminal sense.
But it perfectly illustrates the growing perception of a “pay for access” system surrounding Trump’s political world — where money, influence and presidential power appear increasingly intertwined.

#AOC will co-chair new "End Corruption #Caucus" founded last week.
House Reps Jason Crow (D-Colo.), Mike Levin (D-Calif.), & Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) plan an anti-corruption resolution, more.
1) New rules on becoming a #lobbyist 2) Can't own individual stocks (only funds; I have to do this bc I work at a law firm!) 3) Overhaul #CampaignFinance rules...
None of it will pass anytime soon, but good for them.

NOTUS: A Hacker Stole Thousands From Cory Booker’s Senate Campaign. “A hacker stole more than $3,000 from Sen. Cory Booker’s reelection committee, according to a federal filing reviewed by NOTUS. The $3,092 unauthorized charge to American Express by an unknown person took place on Dec. 17, Booker’s campaign told the Federal Election Commission on Tuesday.”

Decent chance the code has been cracked for each state to bypass Citizens United. I guess enough people in both parties are convinced they would win fairer elections, or anyway there's some reason that bipartisan support is growing quickly.

'Dark Money' attack on Lt. Gov. Burt Jones accuses him of profiting off taxpayers

"Anonymous, baseless attack ads are what cowards hide behind when they can't win on ideas," Jones said through a spokesperson.

They probably missed the irony of the statement.
