Not really, I think what it's saying is that if you look at this collection of documents, DB comes out very badly - it's a summary, not a stat. And the key point does indeed remain that we have a problem with the dual, conflicted, Gatekeeper/Enabler role.

Speaking from the House floor, @RepMaloney backs the inclusion of the Corporate Transparency Act (#HAmdt1) in #FY21NDAA:

"This legislation would plug a huge hole in our national security defenses. It would also be the single most important anti-corruption reform in decades."

"Transparency in pandemics is a necessary if not sufficient condition for accountable decision-making and the promotion of public trust" @WHO. What's true for pandemics applies to so many public good outcomes. Lots of lessons to be applied @TAInitiative

All public servants especially #InspectorsGeneral should be able to perform their duties with integrity without fear of retaliation. This will be especially important for #oversight during the #StimulusPackage2020

The President of the United States and the Attorney General should use the power we have entrusted to them to promote the highest standards of ethics and integrity. #ethics #anticorruption #integrity: https://t.co/NiGomR0pJZ

[FATF @FATFNews]

Hundreds of billions of dollars are being laundered through fake companies and the money used to facilitate crime. The FATF is helping countries track down the true owners of anonymous shell companies and their dirty money. 1/ #FollowTheMoney #FATFweek #FATF

[coalition4integrity @unite4integrity]

In recent actions, President Trump & Attorney General Barr have undercut U.S. credibility in anti-corruption. Prompt action is needed to reestablish trust that rule of law & judicial independence will be protected. Read @unite4integrity's statement here: https://t.co/NiGomR0pJZ

[coalition4integrity @unite4integrity]

Political interference in the sentencing recommendations for Roger Stone raises profound concerns. Any interference, & even actions & statements the create the perception of interference, inevitably result in loss of public confidence in the rule of law. https://t.co/NiGomR0pJZ

[coalition4integrity @unite4integrity]

Excessive and politicized pardoning of officials convicted of corruption gives a license for bad behavior to many others. It risks undercutting the deterrence to such behavior posed by the threat of prosecution or jail time #anticorruption : https://t.co/NiGomR0pJZ

[coalition4integrity @unite4integrity]

This article from @EricCortellessa highlights an issue for state ethics agencies - lack of divestment by politicians from their business interests. Many state ethics agencies do not have the legal ability to combat this. #SWAMPIndex #UnpackTheSWAMP https://t.co/M3fj8rvat3
