"A handful of cretinous shitsacks who fully legalized bribery in America because they hold to an ideology that insists rich, conservative people are inherently superior and should have carte blanche to rule unfettered by laws turned out to also take fuck-tons of bribes, dismissed every suggestion they account for that because those suggestions came from lowly pleb scum, and materially participated in an effort to end democracy in America" sure feels like a plot twist every last person with critical thinking skills should have seen coming.

@GrimmReality Putting corrupt people in charge of laws exactly matches Pumpkin's practice of putting anti-education people in charge of education, anti-environment people in charge of EPA, and anti-tax people in charge of IRS.

@GrimmReality Did any of them report the gifts on their income tax. I never hear anyone report on that.

@Frankc1450 @GrimmReality There was some reporting when the PP story first broke. These were the two major reports, but no, nothing came of it, i.e. no audits or charges of tax evasion
