Summary
Donald Trump faces criticism for refusing to sign agreements under the Presidential Transition Act, which mandates funding limits and donor disclosure for a smooth power transfer.
By not signing, Trump avoids donor limits and disclosure rules, enabling secret contributions, including foreign ones, which raise concerns about financial corruption.
Critics, including Sen. Elizabeth Warren, warn this undermines transparency and governance, as FBI background checks on nominees are delayed.
The White House confirmed the agreements remain unsigned, with Trump relying on private donors instead of federal funds.
Only thing he knows is corruption. There’s no “risk” of it, it’s being done out in the open, and has been done for almost a decade.
Pretty sure corruption was a literal campaign promise. “Vote for me and I will put my chief donor in charge of ruining your stupid lives” turned out to be a compelling message
Financial corruption is the entire point.
You have to assume at this point everything is able to be bought, from cabinet positions to getting your nephew a job in whatever agency you’d like.
Shocking news is seeing the government do something meaningful without thousands in bribes.
*Will be
*Could be if it ever occurred in my lifetime
“Masked man with a gun ordering the teller to put the money in the bag faces criticism for risking a bank robbery.”
”risking”???
“Risking”
fkn lol
There is no risk, the system is working as intended.
Pretty sure he doesn’t give a fuck, won’t bother trying to hide it, and will send the MAGAstapo after anyone who tries to prosecute.
Did they miss his first term? He literally ran a pay to play scheme.
And?
It’s not like the motherfucker hid any of his intentions here and not like he didn’t do the same things during his first term.
Nice of the lame stream media to finally take notice and publish stories about his blatant plans for corruption now though. /S
Guess the transfer of power can’t happen until this is complete.
That risk became an issue decades ago.
Those fucks in Congress had 4 fucking years to fucking act and they did fuck all.
Banana Republicans doing corrupt shit? Whoda thunk?
Risking? I thought the looting of our nation was the entire point of the qons?
“Concerns about financial corruption”?
Really? There’s no “concern” here for anyone with 2 brain cells to boop together. It’s a known, reliable fact, not a “concern”.
It’s a feature, not a bug. Part of the plan all along. If it weren’t for the charges getting dropped, I’d say it’s the whole plan.
