Gary Kalman, Director of the new U.S. office of Transparency International, said the following:

“Weaknesses in our laws are being exploited by a growing list of bad actors at home and abroad. From foreign despots to terror networks, drug cartels to human traffickers, some of the world’s most destructive forces are benefitting from gaps in U.S. law. Multiple corruption scandals in the last year alone have shown that transnational corruption is often facilitated, enabled, or perpetuated by countries toward the top of the Index, including the United States. Fortunately, bipartisan legislation currently before Congress, the ILLICIT CASH Act and the Corporate Transparency Act, would go a long way toward stopping these interests from using the U.S. as a laundromat for their dirty cash.”

1. "currently before Congress"? oops, Moscow Mitch will kill it ...

Moscow Mitch will suffocate any bill that has the name of a Democrat on it. He fights to prevent any accomplishment by any Democrat.

We need him ousted.

2. I wonder why.

Trump says he hates corruption. But he wants to make bribery easier worldwide.

6. drumpf translation: I was born corrupt and I love corruption.

5. Then he's really talking self-hatred.

Self-loathing.

Either one works and either one fits.

4. Moscow Mitch will take one look at the title...

..."Illicit Cash Act" and, realizing that one's got his own name written all over it, off it goes into the Corruption Trashbin he keeps hidden away in his spare bedroom.
