And now he’s going to be executed for treason, right? anakin-padme-2

Because that’s what a serious country does when elected representatives take bribes to act as foreign agents. Right? anakin-padme-4

I will reiterate my previous statement: I think if you want bribes as an elected official you should have to do it in this cartoony manner. Solid gold ingots and burlap bags of bank notes with big dollar signs on them.

It's kinda like George Santos - if you do your corruption in a funny way your case file should get moved to the bottom while we deal with all the boring ones

Lobbyist for big TP: Alright Senator, what do we gotta do to get that sweetheart contract selling toilet paper to the Navy?

Senator: Beans.

Lobbyist for big TP: Huh? Did you say, "Beans"?

Senator: Yes. Black beans, kidney beans, adzuki, red, white, pinto any kind will do really. Just beans... and lots of them.

Lobbyist: staring Oh... okay. Why?

Senator: Do you really think anybody will give a fuck if I'm getting paid in beans? And if anybody does give a fuck, I get to claim to be clinically insane. taps temple knowingly
