If you are like me, since the early Republican primaries, you have been wondering just what could a Las Vegas Casino Billionaire WANT so desperately from our government that he is willing to spend “LIMITLESS” funds on ONE election cycle to buy that government and put it into his pocket. The Rachel Maddow show Monday night has cleared up that mystery for me. The report is from ProPublica and NPR’s Frontline and it makes it CRYSTAL clear just how destructive allowing unlimited campaign funding IS NOW to our democracy and to what little governmental decency we had left at the beginning of this year. Not – will be destructive…IT IS well on its way to being done right now!! The short answer to that mystery: The Las Vegas Billionaire Sheldon Adelson wants a NEW justice department installed in Washington. He wants the investigation of his personal and corporate corruption/bribery/extortion in dealing with the Chinese government in relation to his Sands Casino in Macau to be dropped! I fear that our efforts to fight against such campaign spending and the selling of our government are simply too late! Please tell me - DOES ANYONE HERE HAVE ANY IDEA AS TO WHAT CAN BE DONE NOW (IN THE NEXT 2 MONTHS) TO STOP THIS AUCTIONING OF OUR GOVERNMENT??? www.propublica.org/article/inside-the-investigation-of-leading-republican-money-man-sheldon-adelson
