@EricT41208999@IlhanMN So you believe she lied on her financial disclosure forms and Republicans didn't do anything about it at any point when they've been in the majority?
@JerryTurin@quantian1 No it isn't. Money laundering has a specific meaning which isn't interchangeable with fraud. You could argue that money laundering is a type of fraud, but that doesn't make all fraud money laundering.
@carney@ryangrim That's just because you don't want the government to be able to regulate businesses. It's far more efficient for congress to create agencies that employ various experts that are empowered to create rules in order to do things like ensure we have clean water and air.
@JerryTurin@quantian1 No, that would be fraud. Money laundering is taking money that obtained illegally and finding a way to make it look like you obtained it legally.
@AminCad@TheGerman21 @JStein_WaPo These agencies were created democratically by the legislature. It's not democratic for one guy, who wasn't elected, to dismantle them because he doesn't understand them, or they regulate aspects of his many business interests.
