Corker, who has now said he will vote for the final bill.

Just after a provision was added that would save Bob Corker, personally, $1.2 million. I don't like being one of those "politicians are all corrupt only looking to make themselves rich" but it's getting harder and harder to find another view that can adequately explain Republican behavior.

Edit: aside from when they're being bigoted or "owning libs" of course.

A view of "Republicans are all corrupt only looking to make themselves rich, while Democrats actually want to serve the public and make things better"?

It's virtuous. It earns him money because he's a productive taxpayer; do you want the best members of our society to not pass legislation simply because they benefit from it? That is irrational parasite thinking.

You have to remember that conservatives are dishonest fucks, so whenever a member of the media or something gets canned or otherwise reprimanded for inaccuracy/bias, they will just scream "SEE!? THEY'RE BIASED!!!!!!" Because it was never actually about the media being biased, but rather trying to discredit the media so they can get away with their bullshit. It's been quite successful, if delaying any real solutions for global warming and, you know, elect the most unqualified person to hold the office of president since, I dunno. I guess technically Bush which should give you an idea of how goddamn good the right is at controlling a narrative.

Read ANY comment section on the topic and there'll be that one person with the "Yeah, but what about all the other people he DIDN'T investigate? He only went after this one guy because he's the least biased and he's just ignoring all the other far more biased people so it will LOOK like there's no more bias left!"
