FWIW

A lot.

As politicians, they should all be required to disclose any and all monies received from foreign sources to at least an oversight committee... preferably a non-government 3rd party independent committee.

FWIW

I thought they did but no one was interested.

I think we the people would be very interested if one of our politicians were getting enormous funds from foreign entities! And that is regardless of country.

Foreign influence in local policies should be a big NO NO!!!

FWIW

Polotics isn’t the same anymore.

Showtalk said...

Polotics isn’t the same anymore.

Nope, and they haven't been for quite some time.

The Democrats keep moving further and further left towards Socialism and are mainly interested in power and money.

The RINO in the GOP are just that... Republican in name only, but are basically Democrats in thinking. However, I would call the RINOs moderate Democrats not quite as far to the left as the main stream Democrats are.

The Establishment GOP are more about money for them and thus are more interested in their donors who sponsor large lobby organizations whom are also interested in money and thus neither the Establishment GOP themselves nor their lobby organizations think much about We the People. Establishment GOP tactics are similar to Democrat tactics and they sometimes side with the Democrats too.

The rest of the GOP members (only a small handful) are either moderate or very conservative members. These are basically the ones the Democrats want to run out of DC. But these are also the ones most concerned about We The People.

And that sums up D.C. in a nutshell!

FWIW

They need term limits so they voters can be represented. The longer they are in office, the more removed they become from the voters.  I literally only hear from my reps when they want money, votes, or money and votes.
