Any anti-corruption legislation is good, all politicians (even "ourguys") are hostile to normal society and should be inconvenienced as much as possible. I welcome it, even from a twat like Warren, provided it is not explicitly biased against conservatives. Any implicit bias can be turned against them in later years. Her outline sounds like it would be useless, though.
Retarded, companies can still bribe them in a million other ways and they could just buy narrow sector ETFs. Usually lobbying and crony capitalism in the US doesn't benefit single companies anyway, it is done at the industry cartel level: See insurers and pharma uniting to prop up Obamacare. Even looking at the biggest exceptions, like Lockheeb, it didn't happen by bribing politicians. It works by making them look good career-wise, and promising highly-paid board positions when they retire from government careers.
I'm guessing this is to please the MUH RUSSIA crowd, but it is stupid. There is very little damage being done to US by foreign lobbies, most foreign lobbies are harmless, and the big problems like China or Israel are smart enough to wrap it in a domestic entity. They all have sizable diasporas with US citizenship, but loyal to their home country.
A politician can just marry a lobbyist and the corruption continues, among many other examples. What a pointless restriction.
Trivial to detach funding from individual bill, stupid idea.
Very wishy washy "goal" unless you specify exactly which loopholes you are closing.
There's already too much bureaucracy, no need to add another ill-defined waste of tax money. At least reform existing agencies first.
Yeah, get rid of activist judges RBG who try to push their headcanon on how the constitution should work, and get people who are willing to follow the very simple laws that have already been established for 200+ years, instead of being status whores and selling out a beautiful legal framework just to ride on the latest wave of public hysteria.
Oh wow, another agency? How about telling existing alphabet soups to stop harassing average Joes and go after corrupt politicians?
Just strengthen FOIA and make the response deadline shorter. Now that we are in the computer/internet age, government should be able to release records faster and easier.
Seems that way, but I think something is blocking her. She would have definitely been a much better candidate than HRC, but so was Bernie and he got cucked at the primaries. Maybe that's what's stopping her.
She's also said so many times that she won't run, won't it be awkward if she does? And how's she gonna play the woman card when HRC already ran that into the ground? Trump would fucking obliterate her in 2020, and by 2024 she'll be 10 years past her prime.
