Representative Brecheen’s Absurd “Corrupt Foreign Practices Act” Commentary

One reason there is often little trust left in America regarding certain institutions or government is because little trust is warranted.

It seems as if politicians (of various parties) will say anything and if they (and others) say it enough it seemingly becomes true.

Prior posts here and here have highlighted laughable and bungled Foreign Corrupt Practices Act commentary by various conservative commentators concerning the Bidens and the FCPA. (During the Trump administration there were certain things written about Trump and the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act that were just plain absurd, legally inaccurate, and/or completely devoid of context. See here and here for instance).

The latest absurd commentary comes from Representative Josh Brecheen (R-OK).

Conservative Commentator Bill O’Reilly Serves Up A Laughable FCPA Analysis

Yesterday’s post highlighted  how conservative commentator Greg Jarrett bungled the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act when discussing Hunter / Joe Biden.

This post discusses how conservative commentator Bill O’Reilly has done the same thing.

In this video clip, O’Reilly attempts to describe how “the [Biden] family has already violated the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.”

O’Reilly begins by saying that he “stumbled” upon the FCPA, but rest assured he and his staff have done their research on the law “as we always do.”
