I'm not from USA, but all I see here is being shocked that government is corrupt?
I mean...whoever thinks someone up there (that has been there for a longer time, not just started) is not corrupted is simply delusional.
Everyone is corrupt. Why? Because when the game itself is corrupt and the rules cater to those who "cheat"....it is only natural for the players to be(come) corrupt.
Humans. It's almost an unwritten rule, lol.
