[VIDEO:] "Political Corruption: Can the Swamp Be Drained?" - Kimberley Strassel
Hillsdale College via Youtube ^ | 2/27/2018 | Kimberley Strassel

Posted on 05/18/2019 12:22:37 PM PDT by Maceman

I just watched this video, which was first published on YouTube in February 2018, and found it completely riveting.

In this speech, Ms. Strassel does an amazing job of bringing to light the scary depths of federal government corruption, while at the same time offering an optimistic view of what we can do and, more importantly, what is being done now under the Trump administration to drain the swamp.

Or course, there's still much more to be done. In my opinion every Freeper should watch this video and share it whenever possible.

LINK (56:01 and WELL worth the time!)

What happened to the Q-anon affair that so many were talking about?

Just ONE possible reason why it’s such a hard job!
WE DON’T NEED THE TAX RECORDS OF MILLIONAIRES WHO BECAME POLITICIANS.

 Curious how many of these folks ENTER Congress with a moderate net worth and come out MULTI-MILLIONAIRES?

It produces movies, too. Brokeback Mountain
would never have been made without anal sex. ;)

Cleaning up DC is like clearing the pythons out of the Everglades. At least the pythons can be shot on sightt.

Only way to drain the swamp is a few MIRV’s, a 747 flown into the capital during a joint session of congress, or declaration of martial law to perp walk all of them out to face a tribunal.

I hope you’re right.

To me it looks like a schedule without end.

All I know is that Trump is more under the gun than Hillary is. I often wonder who won in 2016. Trump is suffering more after his win than Hillary after her loss. Something is screwy here.
