I was telling the wife that the Obama administration’s bribery practices resembled the late 19th century Western “spheres of influence” in China. Biden had the Ukraine and China. Hillary had Russia and part of the Middle East. Obama had Iran and the Muslim Brotherhood. Each big player was able to collect tribute (or a kickback percentage on US aid) in his sphere of influence.
This same protection racket goes on inside the US
Joe Manchin’s daughter named CEO of an Epi-pen manufacturer while her father blocked any competition.
Pelosi’s husband securing billion dollar federal contracts.
Loopholes written into tax law so GE & Amazon pay no taxes on billions of net profit in return for favorable treatment and massive campaign contributions.
The gov’t broke up the mafia because it did not like the competition for protection money.
