  1. There might still be a YouTube video of a wealthy Arab bragging about how he bribed Harvard Law into accepting one Barrack Obama even though Obama never finished college. The Saudis have been donating millions to Harvard for years. In exchange the Saudis get to pick a few Harvard Law students.

  2. Foreign Interests and Countries should have concrete limitations or an out right ban for lobbying and “donations’ to US Universities, Colleges, think tanks or PACs.
    No more Foreign paid influence peddling junkets for Congress, Military or any other employee of the US Government/University.

  3. Trying? I’d say they succeeded.

    They’re all on the take. Saw a headline on an article but didn’t read it saying that Bannon had spies in the Capital Grill last night and lobbyists were cutting deals with GOP representatives to not vote for Jordan.

    The system is corrupt to the core and there is only one option to turn it around. Wipe off the map every swinging dick (and dickette)in DC and start over.

    One bad apple spoils the bunch.
