Buying influence is literally how our capitalist system works, and let's not forget that it was a Republican supreme court majority that held that money = speech. So if you're looking to pout about money corrupting politics, you'll get no sympathy from me so long as you continue to vote for a political party that is dead set on enshrining corruption in our system.

And again, please lay out evidence of an actual corrupt scheme involving Ukraine and the Bidens beyond the same vague bullshit accusations you've presented so far.

Yes, nepotism is a thing that has existed since forever. It's not a secret that the children of the wealthy and powerful get good jobs in return for the hiring company obtaining a degree of prestige and potentially building a relationship with a powerful family. Is it frustrating that the world's not a meritocracy? Sure. But where's the actual corruption here? And where are the credible voices laying out a legal case that the Obama administration unlawfully exploited this arrangement? I hear a lot of whining from Tucker Carlson and Russian apparatchiks, but that's it. Show me some real evidence of actual corruption beyond "kid from wealthy family got a good job."

Oh, that's right, you can't, because it's just a bunch of dumb right wing bullshit.

This is a bullshit lie. Why does the Right insist on continuing to parrot such stupid nonsense? This is why the rest of us don't take you guys seriously.
