If you boycotted every business that was dishonest, you would buy nothing at all from anyone. If you protested every agency that harbored secret corruption, there would be nothing left that you didn’t protest. That may be fine for a few rare individuals whom God calls to live off the grid, but it won’t work for most of us who are called to infiltrate such agencies for the Kingdom of Heaven.
I can tell you that the US Army is one of the worst criminal outfits in the world. I can tell you that sloppy work, unprofessional treatment of those they presumably defend, and hatred for those who dare to poke their nose in the corruption is all par for the course. I can tell you that the most horrific crimes and total unaccountability will remain hidden from public view, simply on the basis of what I myself learned serving as a Military Policeman. Some of my superiors in the Military Police were crooks. Yet, I would go back and serve again if it were an option for me. Even though I hate how all the politically correct nonsense that has been rammed down the military’s collective throat has made it nearly impossible to avoid trouble for those who do absolutely nothing wrong, I would want to be with those people because that has always been my greatest mission field.
Are you aware that the Civil Rights policies of the US are carefully crafted to solve nothing, but were consciously designed to provoke even more racism and unrest? And do you need more proof that mainstream media knowingly lie about events to provoke wholly unjustified hatred? Folks, America is at war with itself. This is by design, in part to keep us distracted so we won’t go after the ruling elite.
Learn to take for granted that, no matter what you do or where you go, crooks will be involved at some level. Yes, even churches. Some of the most famous pastors are psychopaths; I’ve met a couple myself. Support staff can be even worse. Any institution that involves organized human behavior will always have a crooked element. Get used to the idea because it isn’t going to change until Christ returns. This is normal.
Focus on your mission and calling and prepare your mind to run into irreparable evil in this world. Learn how to see it for what it is and keep your hands to the plow. There can be no peace in this world, only the shalom that comes to individuals who seek divine favor.
In my humble opinion, the only course of action for those of us who know The Truth is to allow God to work through us at His good pleasure affecting one person at a time. Any other action(s) will be in vain. I say “allow” as in our choosing to follow His Lead.

Let’s not be deceived nor surprised: corruption is the way of the world. We have to work our own standards in dealing with others, but we should always be careful to not let those standards drown out a calling from God to act against them.
