Truman Sadly Was Mostly Right When He Intoned That Only Crooks Go Into Politics

 Truer words were never spoken even though Truman left office in a penurious state That being a president, senator or even a lowly house member is a path to wealth is beyond debate Insider information to enrich one on stock trades As Pelosi with her husband receives an "A" grade Millions of lobbyist dollars in campaign contributions diverted to hire relatives and gifts With billions in funding at risk the ability to oppose bribes is quickly cast adrift Menendez may not be the head poster child easily passed by Hunter's access to Biden quid pro quo But the gold bars in his closet shows how easily corruption of a senator can grow The Blues are over DOGE's uncovering of waste and fraud melting down Imagine the extent of the meltdown if DOGE starts uncovering the quid pro quo of our leaders in D.C.
