The CEO of a a multi-trillion dollar company went to the White House, openly handed the US president a gift made of gold, and his company got a special exemption to tariffs the president has illegally imposed.
Also, the Founders took bribery so seriously the Constitution bans it 3 separate times.

We no longer have a functional Supreme Court and people (especially those in power and in the media) need to start plainly addressing that fact.
The entire edifice, along with many other pillars of government, will need to be rebuilt from the ground up.
