Corruption by someone in a position of authority using their power for personal gain or to benefit others, manifests in various forms such as bribery, extortion or misuse of information and funds. The actions of a person which are intentionally wrong, can be devastating, deceptive and often illegal. The misuse of entrusted authority to gain advantage for oneself or others, is a terrible abuse of power. The motivation is often to benefit a select group, even though it harms the public or others.
There seems to me to be so many instances of embezzlement within our local government or businesses, that it is unreal. There is terrible misuse of public funds happening, for personal gain or to help benefit family or friends. When a person in a position of authority offers or accepts money, gifts or other things of value in exchange for an official action, such as speeding up red tape on paperwork or swaying a vote, it is all a travesty. Failing to comply with declaring a conflict of interest seems to be something that is done on a daily basis. There are police officers out there who speed up gun licensing permits for cash and gifts. Alderman may have control over development projects in their ward, which have been linked with bribery and extortion practices. Local officials are being influenced by campaign contributions in many cases. When will it all stop?
And this is just local government issues. You can only imagine just how bad it truly is in big government. We have gotten so far away from the way our government was meant to be, it's not funny. Where our constitution put the power in the hands of the people, the government we have been under for a long time now, has taken our rights away, one by one, until they have control over every single aspect of our lives, and the scariest part is that it was done so subtly, no one even realized it as it was happening. When the top federal agency responsible for investigating and prosecuting public corruption cases has as much corruption inside their agency as they did, wonder what that says about the rest of the federal government; the ones we have entrusted with our tax dollars. My greatest wish is for all to wake up to the truth, and truly understand the magnitude of just how much our president loves the American people and how very hard he is working to bring America back to its former glory, despite how far it had fallen during the last few years at the hands of the ones who wanted so badly to destroy it.
My heart is excited for America's future, the future of our children and our children's children. What is happening now behind the scenes of this movie that is in the final act, is at it's core, all about saving the children, which have been under attack for a very very long time. These horrible truths will start to snowball very soon. Take to heart, every day, all the arrests being made for human trafficking. It's going to be much, much worse in the days to come.
Pray for our president, give God gratitude for sending us this man and most importantly, pray for all the children.
