In the US corruption happens at the very high level, where it's hard to be seen. One tiny example is the murder of Epstein.

Also, US simply made significant portion of corruption legal by calling it lobbying. In all the other countries it's a corruption, but not in US because they simply renamed it.

Really interesting one because it drifted from being the most likely theory to a "conspiracy theory" pretty rapidly. Once Barr said he was going to get the bottom of it, the media coverage mostly dried up.

Lobbying is legal in every free country on earth. What specifically are you referring to?
