Mother Jones Puts Corruption at the Center of the Midterms
Original: It’s the Corruption, Stupid https:// fed.brid.gy/r/https://www.moth erjones.com/politics/2026/10/corruption-midterms-dat
Mother Jones has published a feature arguing that corruption should be the defining issue of the upcoming US midterm elections. The piece ties together several threads, including data centers, stock trading by lawmakers, pharmaceutical industry influence, and the Epstein affair, naming figures such as Texas Democrat Hinojosa and Senator Jon Ossoff. Commenters are sharing the article as a framing for campaign debates.
Why now: The article's argument that corruption could decide the midterms is being circulated ahead of voting.
