Political Scandals

Political scandals refer to controversial events or situations involving politicians or government officials that typically involve misconduct, unethical behavior, or breaches of trust. These scandals often include activities such as bribery, corruption, abuse of power, or illegal actions that are exposed to the public, leading to public outcry, investigations, and sometimes legal repercussions. Political scandals can severely impact public perception, influence electoral outcomes, and affect the stability of governments or political parties.
