People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No bullying or international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.

Obama did a response to the film The Laundromat (which is excellent), where he said, yes this is one of the keystone problems we have, but there is not going to be a fix for it, because the people that could fix it are benefitting from it. I've never seen him quite that defeated before.

Any chance you have a link or transcript?

I found a related clip, not precisely what the commenter mentioned but it's the same mold - Obama talking about the Panama fraud itself, rather than the movie
