Government Corruption: Why 89% of Americans Have Lost Faith

Author: TJ Walker September 3, 2026 Duration: 13:12
Gallup says 89% of Americans believe corruption is widespread in government. On this episode of Filtered with TJ Walker, TJ asks an even more important question: who exactly are the other 11%?TJ examines Donald Trump’s cryptocurrency business, access for major crypto buyers, the $400 million luxury Boeing 747 offered by Qatar, controversial presidential pardons, the Eric Adams corruption case, and the increasingly blurred line between public power and private profit.Then there’s the U.S. Mint selling gold-colored Donald Trump dollar coins at collector prices, because apparently putting the president’s face on the money wasn’t quite literal enough.Also in this episode: TJ remembers Gloria Steinem and her impact on the women’s movement, looks at Ted Cruz’s possible 2028 presidential ambitions, sizes up the Republican field, and imagines what might happen when Donald Trump bowls a gutter ball in the newly upgraded White House bowling alley.Political satire, current events, corruption, money, power, and the stories behind the headlines, without the usual filter.Subscribe to Filtered with TJ Walker for more political commentary, news analysis, and satire.#FilteredWithTJWalker #TJWalker #DonaldTrump #Trump #GovernmentCorruption #PoliticalCorruption #TrumpCrypto #TrumpCoin #TedCruz #GloriaSteinem #RepublicanParty #Politics #PoliticalSatire #USPolitics #2028Election #WhiteHouseFiltered with TJ Walker, TJ Walker, Donald Trump, Trump corruption, government corruption, political corruption, Trump cryptocurrency, Trump crypto, Trump coin, Trump dollar coin, Gallup corruption poll, Trump Qatar plane, Qatar Boeing 747, Trump pardons, Eric Adams, Ted Cruz, Ted Cruz 2028, 2028 election, Republican primary, Gloria Steinem, White House bowling alley, Trump news, political satire, US politics, political commentary, current events
