Make It Make Sense with Grant Hermes
Make Corruption Great Again (W/ Public Citizen's Rick Claypool)
Over the last few months Donald Trump, his family and his administration have set out to make Trump wealthier.
Grant talks about the crypto empire Trump is trying to build and why it's a flashing sign to the rest of the world that his influence is for sale.
Then, a brand new Senate report is out about Elon Musk and what DOGE is really all about. Spoilers, it's not really about saving money.
The guest today is Rick Claypool from Public Citizen. Rick is a researcher who's put together a tracker for the companies who might be trying to buy their way out of government investigations and how many of those investigations have already been stopped or ended all together.
