If a regular citizen trades stocks based on insider info, they go to prison.
If a politician does it, it’s just another Tuesday on Capitol Hill.
The corruption isn’t even hidden anymore; it’s a job perk.
The ultimate political illusion: Republicans don’t need to win your vote to keep power; they just need to convince you to stay home. They know that even if they lose the Senate majority, the uniparty apparatus keeps the status quo intact. Power isn’t won at the ballot box anymore . . . it’s maintained through your apathy.
