@Nigel_Purchase Sounds like one of those cases where the headline is very misleading but tries to hedge in the word "basically" so the author can say, "Well, we didn't say it REALLY did that."
No, the SCOTUS didn't legalize bribery, and in fact its opinion hinged largely on the argument that BECAUSE bribery is illegal and a big deal, that can explain why Congress set the legislation this way.
The Court's opinion emphasizes that bribery is illegal, contrary to what so many headlines are saying.
