"...some gubment officials don't even begin to follow basic business reporting as required by the IRS"
Like insider trading on tariff stop starts, dozens of profitable conflicts of interest for him, his family, and his richest buddies. Roles in government purchased by the wealthiest donor class.
Believe what you will but the current admin is a blatant example of a -plutocratic- -kakistocracy- of -kleptocrats-. It's pretty obvious to everyone on both sides of the aisle.

Abe, you seem to be a smart guy who stays abreast of political goings-on. So, I'm puzzled as to how you managed to miss the shenanigans of the Biden administration.

Believe what you will, but, why did Biden pardon his entire family, for crimes not even alleged nor charged? Surely, they have nothing to hide. And, what about the "about face" on pardoning his son?

I suspect that your criticism of Trump is more about your hatred of him than about anything factual.

Having both sides do it is one thing (the Washington swamp tradition i suppose), having outsiders snoop into and expose or attempt to stop any of it is another.
I give them points for trying and for the outsider real world approach (not having gov officials in charge of those areas do the investigations).

Time will tell as it does each time around.
