  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

That was a 180 day review period. The review period is over, the deadline has passed.
Good catch in correcting me. You are right but the focus is still changed. Corruption which is the case with smartomatic, is being allowed for others and in its place the DOJ is tageting cartels and things of national security interest. Here is from google ai when I asked about the status of the FC Bribery Act and the DOJ. Yes, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) is still prosecuting under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), but with a new, more focused enforcement strategy. The DOJ will now prioritize cases that involve national security, Transnational Criminal Organizations (TCOs) and cartels, and serious bribery schemes, rather than all cases of corruption.
