Trump Cancels Enforcement Against Corporate Criminal Defendants
- 80 closed investigations (including 10 criminal investigations);
- 67 dismissed enforcement lawsuits the federal agencies were actively litigating (including 10 criminal cases); and
- 54 canceled consequences in which the Trump administration terminated or reversed enforcement actions that were resolved before his second term, including 14 pardons of corporations and executives and five canceled corporate leniency deals.

- Trump is also the first president to pardon a corporation: crypto exchange BitMEX, which was spared a $100 million fine. He has since pardoned nine corporations and their executives.
It all makes complete sense from a certain point of view; why would the most corrupt guy in America want his regime focused on corruption? I mean, he endorsed Ken Paxton — the guy impeached by his own party (Republicans) IN TEXAS for bribery and abuse of public trust.
I think it’s fair to say Trump isn’t concerned about corporate corruption.
When you understand "the deep state" simply refers to the rule of law, it makes much more sense.
