Washington is no longer about lawmaking, it's about moneymaking

Conventional wisdom holds that Washington is broken because outside special interests bribe politicians. The reverse is true: politicians have developed a new set of brass-knuckle legislative tactics designed to extort wealthy industries and donors into forking over big donations -- cash that lawmakers often funnel into the pockets of their friends and family.

Inside this best-selling bombshell of a book, Schweizer reveals the exorbitant secret "fees" each political party charges politicians for top committee assignments; how fourteen members of Congress bagged hundreds of thousands of dollars using a little-known self-loan loophole; how politicians use PACs to bankroll lavish lifestyles; and much more. Washington's extortion racket has gone unreported -- until now.

Stylish
Size: Large, Color: White
This Alimens & Gentle Oxford shirt is honestly a great addition to any wardrobe and completely exceeded my expectations ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐. The material thickness is spot on. It’s not too thin and not heavy either, which makes it perfect for both work and casual wear. The fabric feels sturdy and well structured without being stiff or uncomfortable. The style is clean, classic, and versatile. It looks sharp enough for business or office settings, but you can easily dress it down for a more casual look. The white color is crisp and polished, and the cut gives it a modern, put together appearance without feeling too formal. Quality really stands out with this shirt. The stitching is neat, the buttons are secure, and everything feels well made. It holds its shape nicely even after wearing it all day, and it doesn’t feel like one of those shirts that loses structure after a few washes. Comfort is another big win. The stretch in the fabric makes a noticeable difference, especially when moving around, sitting, or reaching. It feels flexible and breathable, and you don’t feel restricted at all. It’s the kind of shirt you can wear from morning to night without feeling uncomfortable. Wrinkle resistance is impressive. Even after a long day or sitting for hours, it still looks fairly smooth and presentable. A quick hang or light touch up is all it needs, which is great if you’re trying to save time. Value for money is excellent. For the price, you’re getting a stylish, comfortable, and well made shirt that easily competes with much more expensive brands. It looks professional, feels great, and performs well. Overall this shirt checks all the boxes. Great material, sharp style, solid quality, comfortable fit, and very good wrinkle resistance. I’d definitely recommend it and would happily buy more in different colors.

Work casual shirt that travels well:
Size: Large, Color: Dusty Blue, Size: Large, Color: Dusty Blue
This shirt runs true to size with a bit of room for more. The material is a bit stretchy which helps keep the shirt looking great without major wrinkles. The shirt itself is comfortable and feels like it'd last through many washes and the care instructions are fairly simple (cold wash and low dryer). This particular color is unusual and compliments many outfits. Given the quality, this is a high value item. Just go easy with the iron.
