#Legalcorruption is a real thing. So are acts of #corruption motivated by very understandable human needs and emotions. Such acts of corruption are still bad for society in many ways, and leaders should know that.

I would be more than happy to visit any other faculties in Dublin City University or universities in Ireland (or beyond) that might be willing to indulge me in talking corruption!

Why is Elon Musk supporting Donald Trump? In July, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk officially endorsed Donald Trump as his choice for the next U.S. president. What have they got in common?

My Co-director at DCU ARC, Michael Breen, spoke to Newsweek about the reasons Musk might be supporting Trump.

"Musk may expect a more favorable regulatory environment for his ventures."

Seems he was right on the money!
