We need to clean what’s left of Our House

Start at the top. That’s where the rot is deepest. That’s where corruption isn’t just practiced, it’s modeled, encouraged, and handed down as policy. When leadership cheats, lies, and steals, it becomes permission for everyone below them to do the same.

Look at the crypto pipeline. Money flowing to Donald Trump even before inauguration, in exchange for favors. The old image was Spiro Agnew walking out with bags of cash. Now it’s digital, laundered through screens, harder to trace but no less corrupt. Once Trump realized crypto’s greatest strength is how well it hides transactions, he embraced it.

Then there are the open bribes. Tech billionaires underwriting vanity projects, political loyalty dressed up as “support.” A ballroom here. A glossy, self-promotional vanity film there. The transaction isn’t even subtle anymore.

If you need a pardon? Just bring your checkbook.

According to the The Wall Street Journal, Trump has promised mass pardons to staff before leaving office. His thinking that pardons are needed shows the level of corruption and the disdain for the rule of law.

Who is this man
In our house
Who is this man
Better get him out
We've got a problem
He's gotta go
He don't leave
Can't live here no more
If we wanna save our home
We need to get him out
