How the fuck is it even remotely legal for a politician to sign an NDA with a corporation to hide information from their constituents?

No NDA necessary. That'd be under other laws/systems. Some would be under things like HIPAA in the US if they learned the information in the course of their work. At minimum, it would fall under civil liability if they publicised private information of private individuals and those people claimed that it caused them harm in some way.

At this point I think you may not even understand what a NDA is.

Are you under the impression if someone doesn't want to talk about a topic, they just "sign a NDA" and don't have to talk about it?
