    Make federal investigation in to any potential wrongdoing a retirement for holding any rejected federal office. Staff an entire branch of the government who’s only job it is to investigate elected officials.

      The FBI used to hold sting operations for corrupt elected officials. They had to stop because they found like 70% of them to be corrupt.

      i assume… “requirement” and “elected” instead of “retirement” and “rejected”?

      Probably prudent, but then how do we select this branch of government and protect it from becoming corrupt?

      B-b-but… then how would you politicize that!?

      Unfortunately some people aren’t merely dumb, they are outright evil:-(.

      “requirement”, right? Unless you mean they should be forced to retire if they are investigated.

      Yeah, and we could call it the Congress or something!
