Stephan:   I don’t think most Americans really comprehend how corrupt the American government has become at the federal level under the Trump administration and Republican dominated Senate. So today’s edition is dedicated to just the corruption of the last week. I find it astounding. It is clear that not only has the swamp not been cleared, it has been dredged, restocked, and refertilised. I couldn’t do all the stories, that’s how bad it is and, of course, this has nothing to do with Mueller, and the seemingly endless criminality of the people immediately around Trump. I just picked a selection of the leading corruption pieces, and even that has produced a longer than usual SR.
