FCC later:

We’ve reviewed the ownership and can find no problems after receiving a hefty bribe.

You can't tell me that every single one of the regulatory decisions by this administration that allowed a company to do something or benefitted an individual, company or industry were not the direct result of a literal bribe.

Pardons are an excellent example, aside from the J6ers. That was entirely PR for their wacko base. All those crypto bros convicted of shit that they pled guilty to? Come fucking on.

All the drug price regulations where they were going to negotiate 'favored pricing' have resulted in exemptions for the most profitable drugs for years - likely until the patents were going to fall off and they would be fucked by generics anyway. This is 100% pay to play. Give them a cut and you can fuck over the not-0.1% american people all day long, no matter what their political background is.
