That's the one who took FEMA funds right?

The one where she used the money to buy a huge diamond ring and even took her congressional photos with the ring she used FEMA funds to buy?


ETA: It is


quote:

The allegations center on Cherfilus-McCormick’s receipt of millions of dollars from her family’s health care business following Florida’s overpayment of roughly $5 million in disaster relief funds. Cherfilus-McCormick is accused of using that money to fund her 2021 special primary campaign and 2022 special congressional campaign through a network of businesses and family members.

"The beleaguered Florida Democrat faces allegations that she stole millions in FEMA funding and is also in the midst of a federal criminal case on the charges." -Politico (3/18/26)

She's been under investigation since September 2023. Her "scalp" is not only unsurprising, but long overdue.

Per wiki:

In November 2025, Cherfilus-McCormick was indicted and charged with allegedly stealing $5 million in FEMA funds, money laundering, and making illegal campaign contributions.

If convicted, she faces up to 53 years in prison.[4][5] An investigation conducted by the House Ethics Committee found Cherfilus-McCormick guilty of 25 out of 27 charges.[6][7]

Apparently a lot. The ethics committee found her to be guilty of 25 out of 27 ethics complaints.

If anyone else were pushing this I’d say nothing happens. Paulina has a great track record, however.

Resignation is ok because at least these evil people are out of Congress, but they'll just be replaced by people just like them until some serious prosecutions and convictions happen.

Congress is the only job in America where you can fleece your employers for millions of dollars and then keep the money and resign. That's unacceptable.

I guess if someone in DC makes MILLIONS from insider trading its okay, right Pelosi. MTG, mostly all of them...

But a direct deposit from FEMA is the red line to not cross?

What I fail to understand is why after she was indicted and House Ethics Committee found her guilty of 25 of 27 charges, she was allowed to not only remain in her position in Congress, but was allowed to vote?
