Secret Empires: How the American Political Class Hides Corruption and Enriches Family and Friends Hardcover – March 20, 2018

by Peter Schweizer

In 2004, current Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and his wife, current US Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao, had an average net worth of $3.1 million. Ten years later, that number had increased to somewhere between $9.2 million and $36.5 million.

One source of the windfall, according to a new book from Peter Schweizer, was a 2008 gift from Chao’s father, James Chao, for somewhere between $5 million and $25 million. But this gift could be seen as more than just a gift. It may have been acquired, according to Schweizer, thanks to the couple’s fealty to China, the source of the Chao family fortune. And that fealty may have occurred at the expense of the nation they had pledged to serve.

“Secret Empires,” the new book from the “Clinton Cash” and “Throw Them All Out” author, details myriad examples of corruption from members of both major political parties. Rather than focusing on direct forms of corruption, such as bribes, Schweizer hones in on the more indirect graft of the modern era.

No wonder they are all smiles.
 
All they talk about is Biden and Kerry enriching themselves. Dems do not read such garbage, the biggest pay to play is Trump , he is the head of the swamp.

/---/ No one doubts there is pay to play schemes in the GOP. It's why we sent Trump to drain the swamp. One day you'll catch on.

Did you just admit to being stupid ?

Both sides have always done this.

Pinheadlope is far too stupid to grasp the reality that most political whores are sociopaths., she actually believes the rich democrooks who come out in front of cameras on a daily basis and parrot "the rich don't pay their fair share" actually WANT to pay more in taxes, but just don't have the votes to make it happen when republicrats are in office.

Pieces of shit like PinHeadlope are dangerously stupid.

Weapons Grade Stupid in fact, and they're being used against the rest of us.

No Dems do not read it. It spends most of the time bashing Democrats, such is the New York Posts advertising it, its about the swamp in Congress but mainly the Democrat swamp and how great Trump is , the head of the swamp. There is a bit in there about McConnell and his Asian wife and how they enrich themselves. But why did Trump make McConnell wife head of transportation, to get Mitch on his side.

Good question!


I have been talking about the corruption of both bought and paid for parties. The Beltway establishment corruption many of which are compromised using pedophilia to keep them in line.
 
If the example of McConnell and his wife is best you could come up with, that is thin gruel indeed. They are a couple with resources and an explanation of how they came by them, like it or not.

More conspicuous are the lifetime legislators who went to Congress with nothing and retire worth millions and millions (Harry Reid, Lyndon Johnson, etc.). We know that their salaries are barely enough to afford a house at "home" and to rent a sleeping room in D.C. We know that they are not supposed to trade on the information they gain in Congress. And yet...

Term limits and a lifetime ban on lobbying would be a start; throw in a lifetime ban on working for any company that gets substantially all of its revenue from government work (contracts or otherwise), and you would have a good program.

While I do not doubt the depravity and sicknesses of some of the sociopaths running around in DC includes pedo crimes, I can't accuse them of it without any evidence.

"Alex Jones said" is about as close as you come to evidence so far as I can tell, and you won't get me to believe a word that clown says.

BTW, I've met the man personally. I worked on the church that was built for the remaining Davidians at Mt Carmel in Waco and I will testify that Alex Jones is a self aggrandizing bullshit artist. I'm less likely to believe someone did something wrong when Jones is the one making the accusations, or repeating the accusations someone else made. It is a source of great anger that he is now accepted in some circles in the anti-global collectivist crowd.

Just 15 years ago he was a hero to bed wetters for undermining the counter jihad effort by claiming Bush did 9/11.

Absolutely unforgivable IMO. After I watched him get into Michelle Malkin's face and scream at her the way he did, calling her a neo-con and all sorts of vile shit, if I ever do see him face to face again I'm going to kick him square in the balls.

To me, these sounds like common sense policies.
