The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Why should anyone worry?

Perhaps VP Vance speech in Munich is best understood as his using that event - more or less only - to promote AfD. Not VP but party politician. Expect Trump, Musk adm to keep on blurring roles as political tool.
