    Michael Tracey Retweeted CBS This Morning

    Failed politicians immediately going into lobbying once they leave office is, rightly, panned. But when they get lucrative "contributor" contracts on network TV, it's celebrated -- even though they're just "lobbying" by other means. It's comparably corrupthttps://twitter.com/CBSThisMorning/status/1090242346317426689 …

        A state commission just found probable cause to further investigate Gillum for ethics violations. These "contributor" roles are like failsafes for politicians who were rejected by electorates, but still feel the need to authoritatively opine about stuffhttps://twitter.com/brianstelter/status/1090257863237357568 …

        The political class always fail upwards. There's no success like failure for politicians except for those who take a moral stand. And those that do get cast out off the gravy train.

        As awful as Jeff Flake is at least he was elected. Prefer him over the spooks and generals.

        He fits the profile of a news anchor. Self consumed and very impressed with his own presentation.

        At least, the lobbyists are registered as such, while soi-disant "contributors" pose as impartial commentators or even experts. 📺

        This isn't axiomatic. There are pols who offer good insight from their immediate past posts. While it can be problematic, this particular criticism probably tracks more along like/dislike for the individual fmr pol being discussed. #CBS
