From Enron to Watergate to Clarence Thomas, corruption isn’t just history — it’s here, and it’s thriving. In this episode, Bella Goode examines how unchecked power rigs the system, silences accountability, and erodes democracy from within. From Ponzi schemes to political purges, learn how corruption works, who enables it, and why dismantling watchdogs threatens us all.
Key Takeaways To Listen For
- How Enron, Madoff, Tyco, FIFA, and Theranos exposed the failure of oversight and the cost to the public
- Why Ponzi schemes, pyramid schemes, and wire fraud keep resurfacing
- How weak watchdogs, insiders, and public apathy help corruption thrive
- The global “iron triangle” of power, money, and impunity
- What history shows about fighting corruption and why silence is complicity
- A six-point plan to fight back: from whistleblower protections to civic re-engagement
Resources Mentioned In This Episode
- Enron
- Tyco
- FIFA
- The Wall Street Journal
- U.S. Securities and Exchange
- Internal Revenue Service
- Federal Bureau of Investigation
- The Trump Organization
- Department of Justice
