Lawmakers, Lawbreakers
When politicians get caught committing crimes, it's like watching a toddler deny eating chocolate with their entire face smeared in it. There they are, standing in front of a podium, sweat glistening under the lights, swearing they “had no idea” that embezzling millions and hiding it in a fake charity called “Save the Puppies Foundation” was wrong. Their excuse? “I was hacked,” “It’s a smear campaign,” or the classic, “This is all news to me,” as if their signature didn’t appear on every shady document like a kid writing their name on the wall with permanent marker. And yet, despite overwhelming evidence, they strut back into office like nothing happened—because in politics, apparently, crime pays... and also gets you a book deal and a Netflix docuseries.
Hacked! UK Minister's X Account Promotes Scam Crypto
- Tuesday, 15 April 2025
Minister Lucy Powell’s X account was hacked to promote a scam "House of Commons" cryptocurrency, which promised to bring people's power to the blockchain. The posts described the "$HCC" coin as community-driven and deleted after being removed by Powell's office, who confirmed the hack on Tuesday morning. This type of hacking is common, where cybercriminals take over accounts using phishing emails or leaked information from data breaches, then promote worthless coins to unsuspecting investors.
