“Money and Politics” - Peter Schweizer

[@10laws2liveby]

I get blown away by people like Mr.Schweizer who can, off the top of his head start off on a subject and seamlessly pursue it to the end and not miss a beat. Hillsdale seems to consistently find people like him for us which is why I support this great institution. God bless and thank you.

[@Craigdna]

Excellent research Mr Schweizer, you just sold a book. I greatly appreciate your efforts.

[@laturista1000]

i dont trust the Clintons, I don't trust the Bush crime family, i don't trust any politician these days. Joe Biden is sketchy too, this author wrote "secret empires". However, also, we as individuals all need to do our own independent research. Wikileaks, anonymous hackers are a necessary evil to expose these corrupt politicians. Because the average IQ, avg Joe does not have the finances nor the brain power, discipline to expose the secret schemes of powerful corrupt politicians.

Cammie Sells Yet Republicans & Dems refuse to force the issue on their favorite highly compensated Senator

[@jimpappas4244]

Term limits won't fix all our problems, but it would be a great start.

[@bhough410]

Term limits won't do anything other than force out the small handful of congress members we have. The deep state has a much longer roster of people waiting to jump into the positions that would open, than the roster is for quality candidates wiling & capable of running a wining campaign. Further there is generally much more readily available funding for a partisan "yes man" than there is a grass roots quality type candidate. Term limits would likely hurt the situation!

[@gabrielenriquemartinez]

Term limits, cooling periods before a member of Congress can join a lobbying organization, and anti-nepotism rules.

[@sunnysmiles8211]

The rest of us slave away, exchanging hours of our lives in exchange for a stagnant wage, paying our payroll taxes (Social Security/Medicare), Federal taxes, State Taxes, County taxes (real estate and car property taxes), and sales taxes/franchise fees, wondering what expense you cut next because wages don’t keep up with inflation. Then you pay all your allotted insurance: health insurance, auto insurance, Hazard (home) insurance, and life Insurance, And medical bills that aren’t covered by insurance due to clauses and exclusions. After you’re done with taxes, insurance and leftover medical bills, you’ve still got utilities, mortgage, phone bill, car payment, childcare, education expenses, clothing, shoes, gasoline, groceries, and much more. *This is the life of the every day person and the corrupt elites up in Washington are extremely far removed from the daily grind.* They are wealth building, building gated mansions in exclusive neighborhoods, going on expensive vacations, dining in fine restaurants, wearing designer clothes, sending their kids to private schools, and driving luxury cars, laughing all the way to the bank.

[@curtissmith2559]

This is why we need a smaller government and term limits.

[@bearowen5480]

Term limits for Congressional office holders will never happen, because it requires either the Congress itself to start the required process for a Constitutional amendment, or a Convention of the States as advocated by Mark Levin. A majority of representatives and senators will never vote to limit their own terms, and there is not enough support in the states to hold a Convention of the States as provided in the US Constitution. Love to see it. Won't happen.

[@bingeltube]

Very recommendable! Peter Schweizer is a hurricane of outspokenness!

[@cellardwellerproductions5125]

There is 3 million people in the executive branch of government alone. They are not elected officials, but have more influence in your day to day life than you are willing to admit. Separate agencies from both the house and the senate. This is where a huge part of the graft and corruption within the government comes from. If you are not directly connected to a representative or senator, this is where you work, for a whole lifetime if you choose. Set up a nonprofit or charity run by a spouse or family member, use the insider information that is available to you in your position and you’re set for generations to come. And they have made it all legal...for themselves.

[@bearowen5480]

Great description of the deep state that actually governs the country. The Founders are spinning in their graves. Trump was right about draining the swamp, but he underestimated the vicious resistance that he would walk into. It kept him from being reelected, and Pelosi's January 6th kangaroo court is doing its best to drive the final nail in his coffin!

I used to think America was better than that, at least I believed not ALL US pols were corrupt...well I have in the past ten yrs or so been traumatically disabused of that notion. I used to hold my head high thinking we were better...well our gov. has not been better, nor our pols. I am still proud to be American of our PEOPLE far away from the halls of power. but our gov. institutions nearly all of them, are corrupt to the core. America has become a sadder place for me as a result.

[@bearowen5480]

Trump couldn't be bought, understood the problems of endemic corruption and the administrative state as only a big city real estate developer could, and did something about it. That's why the corrupt bipartisan beneficiaries of the status quo hate him and will do anything they can to destroy him. Same for the ensconced deep state establishment, the Clappers, Comey's, and Rosensteins and their GS-rated minions who have a vested interest in keeping the Ponzi scheme going. The problem's been around for a long time. Shortly after his first inauguration, Lincoln lamented to a friend back in Springfield, "My problem here in Washington is too many pig[let]s and and not enough teats."

Love it. Great show. Just like pro-wrestling was when I was a kid. But the reality of it comes at 41:47 when a nice lady in a yellow coat stands up and advises Peter Schweizer to watch his back, Schweizer and his family as well. The truth, as I most humbly see it, is that anyone in the public arena who get close to upsetting this multi-trillion dollar confidence game will soon "sleep with the fishes." So, what is the genuine motive of Peter Schweizer and others who are in the game of outing the bad guys?

What is needed to (some extent) is a lottery for each Congressional House Representative. Any citizen can put their name in the lottery and after some very basic background checks one person is chosen to go to the House for 3 years. Then, in 3 years, it's done again. Minimal pay, public housing and food. 3 years and DONE.

This is why we need to restore the 17th Amendment. Congress will never pass laws that go against their profitability. When we had the 17th Amendment, the citizens of each state could control what their senators did. Perhaps this would make it so that citizens participated in government more. They would have to to keep their house and senate honest.

Nearly all of the statements made by this gentleman during this presentation scream "Cogressional Term Limits". This needs to be a States sponsored Constitutional Convention whereby in addition to term limits being imposed, these laws that are already in place that enrich our political operatives be voted out also. I also believe that "insider trading", "political consultants " and other outside or corporate influencers should be made illegal. There should also be within this Constitutional Amendment an article of law that would deny any Congressman or their families from representing, in any way corporations that conduct any business with the government. You can not expect the United States Congress to implement this process on their own. That's why it would have to be a States Constitutional Convention whereby each state votes on the proposed changes and after accomplishing a majority presenting it to Congress fait accomply as an amendment.
