This is a good article but this:

So there's this unspoken assumption that progressives don't much care about corruption and accountability.

Is an absolutely asinine take. It's like they made this part up so they could talk about it for another paragraph. No one assumed progressives didn't care about corrupt. No one. That's just dumb.

I had the same reaction but to give the benefit of the doubt it feels like maybe they meant comparatively to policy issues progressives seem less concerned with individual corruptions as opposed to the overall corruption of the system.
