My country is also qualified for the following
Kleptocracy
The corrupt people running SR also steal all resources of the country blind, leaving absolutely nothing for the population.
Minimum wage, Social Security in comparison to a minister salary is so large in difference it is laughableQuotes
Kleptocrats abuse the freedoms found in Western countries by transferring funds out of a kleptocracy and into Western jurisdictions for money laundering and asset security. Since 2011, more than $1 trillion has left developing countries annually in illicit financial outflows. A 2016 study found that $12 trillion had been siphoned out of developing economies.[15] Western professional services providers are often taken advantage of by exploiting legal and financial loopholes in the West to facilitate transnational money laundering.[16][17] The kleptocratic financial system typically comprises four steps according to one opinion.[18]

How many in Congress are *not* violating ethics, oath of office, or law? And it rises to the top, where the stinking fish head rots downward into our economy and our world standing. Sad.
Paxton's. but one fitting poster child.
Even Sir is apologizing for him (he's not a 10 in the appearance department). Sick. -

Three essays castigating Europe. The coda declines the exam. You cannot out-parasite the original parasite. Europe's real option: pre-Friedman capitalism, upgraded.

Why doesn't this lead to Donald Trump's impeachment already? Has the Overton window widened so much that our sensibilities have become dull to the fact that this obvious slush fund makes every American endlessly taxable? Will someone please go stop the wrecking ball that is currently in motion before it wreaks further havoc? https://reason.com/2026/05/21/trumps-corruption-is-brazen-obvious-and-costly-will-enough-republicans-try-to-stop-him/

#Trump in December authorized an $11B arms package for #Taiwan — the largest weapons sale ever to the island — but has not yet moved forward with delivery & even acknowledged that he’s discussed the sale with #Xi. He’s groused that Taiwan “stole” America’s #semiconductor business & called on Taiwan to pay the #US for protection.

That could block #public #access to more than 700 million White House emails, among countless other records, in Archives possession since the #law went into effect in 1978, Baron said.
…The impact of the #DOJ opinion could be felt quickly by #historians, #scholars & #journalists who regularly access presidential records & make requests for their release.

CW: UK Politics, Corruption
Oh, I think we need to cut the guy some slack.
Which among us can truly claim that we've never accidentally failed to pay £91K in tax after it was funneled through one of our offshore trusts? It's easy to overlook such a trifling sum.

By contrast, large #corporations in #Minneapolis have been much less vocal about the effects of #immigration enforcement on the city, known as both a bastion of progressive politics in the #US #Midwest & a robust corporate #employer. 17 #Fortune500 companies are based in #Minnesota, including #Target, #UnitedHealth, & #GeneralMills.

"A cryptocurrency firm run by the billionaire Winklevoss twins was facing a punishing federal lawsuit. After Donald J. Trump returned to the White House, the Securities and Exchange Commission moved to freeze the case.
The S.E.C. had also sued Binance, the world’s largest crypto exchange, but then dropped the case altogether under the new administration.
And after a yearslong legal fight with Ripple Labs, the new S.E.C. tried to reduce a court-ordered penalty against the crypto firm, seeking to soften the blow of the punishment.
The agency’s pullback from these cases illustrated a wide-ranging transformation in the federal government’s treatment of the crypto industry during President Trump’s second term, a New York Times investigation has found.
It is unheard-of for the agency to retreat from a swath of lawsuits against a single industry. And yet, The Times found that the S.E.C. had eased up on more than 60 percent of the crypto cases that were ongoing when Mr. Trump returned to the White House, moving to pause litigation, lessen penalties or outright dismiss the cases.
The dismissals were particularly unusual, The Times found. Under Mr. Trump, S.E.C. dismissals came at a far higher rate for crypto firms than other cases.
And although the particulars of the crypto lawsuits differed, many of these firms had something in common: financial ties to Mr. Trump, the self-described crypto president."

We literally have the best government money can buy, and our nation, our very survival depends on unflinchingly addressing this pugnacious problem of money as free speech foisted on us by the unaccountable SCOTUS, “Repugnicans” and Corporate Democrats.

Their presence will shower nearly a trillion dollars’ worth of legitimacy upon #Trump — a demonstration that he has triumphed over decency & the rule of #law & is now fully accepted & feared by the well-heeled & the powerful, by #corporate America, by the #establishment. We are witnessing a melding of #oligarchy & #Trumpism. (In the days before the ceremony, there was a host of parties throughout DC, mounted by #tech #aristocrats to celebrate Trump’s inauguration.)

#Conservative activist #JackPosobiec joyfully hailed the “end of #democracy” at #CPAC, further emphasizing #Republicans’ apparent desire to completely overthrow #America as we know it.
#Posobiec, who helped popularize the “Pizzagate” #ConspiracyTheory, appeared at CPAC’s opening day on Wed. He spoke during a panel moderated by … #WhiteSupremacist #SteveBannon.
