Glad we have more journalists on @bsky.app engaging. As a journalist, @ericlipton.nytimes.com SHOULD say "potential" but others SHOULD point out the ways in which the Trump administration accepts or requests money...and determine whether there is a case for legal action. Democracy takes a village.

Corruption requires explict quid pro quo. It is not corrupt to take an action that aligns with the interest of a person who gives you a gift, unless the official action was in direct response to that gift--a bribe. Terms matter. Accuracy and fairness matters. Regardless of what social media wants.
