Well you see, now they themselves can spin up shell companies legally without having to be on the hook personally when said company does reprehensible shit.

It makes perfect sense if the president is a money launderer.

There was recently a report from NPR about kushner and his dealings in albania.

She compares her investigation to opening a set of Russian matryoshka dolls, one after another. She's discovered several of the shell companies share the same address in Amsterdam and that each of them is worth a single euro.

They lead to the smallest matryoshka doll, a company named Interroyal BV, established with 18,000 euros in 2004 by a Russian citizen named Nikita Maximovich Vinogradov and a Bulgarian citizen named Zoya Georgieva Gyurova. Cela says each controls 25% of the company, but she says she hasn't been able to track either individual down. Neither has a public profile, but, on paper at least, she says the mysterious pair owns hundreds of millions of dollars' worth of Albanian property

This is just extending the rights the CIA has to private businesses so it's more just leveling the playing field and allowing global Capital to directly do ops instead of needing to use government apparatus to do so.

Well you see, it benefits the ultra rich and corrupt politicians while causing more harm to the poor and middle class. What is more sensible than that?

They're not sensible. They're Republicans.

bingo

For all billionaires, not just Trump.

Star wars?

Yep, the illusion of this being a legitimate government is laughable and everyone knows it. Might as well make a new governmental system based on Constitutional rights that's adapted to modern issues in the current system

I can remember all the both-sidering dumbasses acting like Hunter getting money for paintings was just as bad as anything the Republicans do. Same thing for him trying to trade on Daddy's name.

I'm just so thankful for all the extremely online activists upholding Murc's Law, as well as the reactionary centrists and the armchair leftists doing so much to drive down Democratic enthusiasm and turnout and give us another term of Donvict.

I'm very sure that Kamala and her family would be raking down billions in naked corruption and trying to position themselves to profit from every dollar that moves. Because both sides.

All of the above

xenophobic propaganda

It has nothing to do with xenophobia. You're right, obviously this will benefit all billionaires, especially those under U.S. jurisdiction. But, the reason for calling out Mexican cartels and Russian oligarchs is to never imply that U.S. billionaires are Bad People. It's the same reason they're the only ones who are ever mentioned in this context, to misdirect public ire.

This so obviously xenophobic propaganda.

So you're telling me that messaging can affect people. Interesting, I thought people could just opt out by wanting to real hard! /s

I actually think that was a poorly placed idea to intended to wake up the right and ruffle some feathers. Problem is they themselves will want in on the action

Count me in

Mf looks like he says 'nyah' unironically.

Incoming "Fetterman was the deciding vote"

That's a fair point. I'm so very tired of decades worth of the Murc's Law Media usually ascribing things to "Congress" instead of naming the perpetrators - it's almost always the Republicans doing the horrible shit. It's not "Congress".
