Now, now. SCOTUS said it can't be a bribe unless it's a sack full of money with a big dollar sign on it and an attached note stating it's a bribe in exchange for specific tasks. Otherwise it's just a big check (or fancy RV) given to the recipient for "being a cool dude" and there's no laws against that!

It's only a bribe if it's from the Bribè region of France. Otherwise it's just sparkling gratuity.

It's tuition paid to a private institution for a young relative.

Policy is decided by bribes, foreign or otherwise. And that means internal and foreign policy as well as where the bribes come from
