  1. Trump froze anti-bribery law enforcement to let U.S. firms bribe foreign officials freely. Now DOJ is picking up the pieces, but fewer cases mean fewer consequences. Under Trump, corruption wasn’t a bug—it was the business model. #FCPA #TrumpCrimeSyndicate #TrumpWatch www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

  2. “Trump’s DOJ deliberately paused FCPA enforcement, sending a green light to global bribery and corruption. Accountability took a backseat while crooks got a free pass. Shameful rollback of U.S. anti-corruption leadership. #FCPA #Corruption #DOJnatlawreview.com/article/fcpa...

  3. Wayback Machine has the now 404'd Justice Department's layman's guide to "Foreign Corrupt Practices Act Antibribery Provisions". Is there a new version? Perhaps a layman's guide for domestic corrupt practices? #DoJ #fcpa #legal

    sooo… the bad thing about Burisma was that it was allegedly corruption from a foreign company paying the Bidens for influence and contracts, yet the #Trump administration just got rid of the #fcpa (foreign corrupt practices act) which effectively now legalises corruption from foreign companies bidding for government contracts?

    #Trump ordonne au ministère de la Justice de ne plus appliquer le Foreign Corruption Practice Act #FCPA
    Loi de 1977 renforcée en 1998 qui interdit de corrompre un agent étranger pour remporter un marché ou un appel d’offres à l’étranger fondement de la convention de l’OCDE contre la corruption entrée en vigueur en 1999 qui a influencé toutes les législations anti-corruption du monde occidental et proscrit la rémunération d’intermédiaires ex dans les contrats d’armements

  6. On February 10, Trump issued an executive order pausing enforcement of the "Foreign Corrupt Practices Act" ( #FCPA ) for at least 180 days.

    This move has sparked intense debate over whether it effectively legalizes bribery for American businesses operating overseas

    —or if it simply removes what some see as unnecessary obstacles to US economic competitiveness

  7. While the US Supreme Court aggressively slashes into every US corruption law, the SEC and DOJ have all but stopped enforcing one of the remaining laws, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Not a single new proceeding brought in 2Q24.

    And only 11 US companies have been charged under the FCPA in the entire Biden administration, vs. 25 under Trump and 16 just in the last year of the Obama administration.

  8. "Albemarle Corporation, a publicly-traded specialty chemicals manufacturing company headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina, has agreed to pay more than $218M to resolve investigations by the #DOJ and #SEC into violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act stemming from Albemarle’s participation in corrupt schemes to pay bribes to government officials in multiple foreign countries"
