Umm if a Republican did this, they’d be driven out of office.

The charges relate to whether Waters gave inappropriate assistance to a bank to which she had personal connections in getting federal bailout money.
The committee says Waters organized a meeting in 2008 between Treasury officials and executives from OneUnited Bank, where her husband was once a board member and had large investments. The bank received $12 million from the federal government's Troubled Asset Relief Program.

Nancy Pelosi's husband owned a few businesses. These businesses received an exemption from having to implement Obamacare.

But isn’t this like blackface or anything else the dems do? Always an excuse if it can hurt their party.

Right now we’ve had a witch hunt on Trump but no evidence after 2 years. We DID have tons of evidence on Hillary and people within the FBI fabricating evidence and nobody wants to look at that shite.

If you’re Hillary you can scrub your server, have a phone smashed with a hammer to hide evidence and flat out lie to congress and FBI heads turned away . When I was growing up I wanted to be an FBI agent. Thank GOD I didn’t. What a corrupt institution

Key discovery from this investigation will be that Waters can neither spell or correctly pronounce the word “ethics”.

In fairness, if intent is an element she lacks the mental capacity to order off a menu let alone form intent.

Democrats cannot break the law, only Republicans can, everybody knows that.

Irrelevant. High-up Black Politicos are untouchable, especially on graft/tax stuff. And they know it. Kinda like Hillary destroying the Servers that She and Obama used for private talk, and God knows what kind of real 'Russian' collusion.

Take a large block of relatively low-IQ people, convince them they are aggrieved, entitled and should be exempted from normal (legal and moral) standards of behavior. And you have a powder keg which can be ignited by High-ups at most any time, if common standards are imposed.

There is zero chance to convince/persuade the Low IQ class of the import of a Common Standard; especially if their bottom line is affected. The only question remaining is how long such a corrupt, double-standard cultural paradigm will endure. And how painful a transition back to honest governance will be.

It wasn't the Constitution and the Law that gave American it's power to rise high over the last centuries...it was the PEOPLE'S ability to recognize the critical import of the ABSTRACT PRINCIPLES therein. The PC crowd can do back flips and cry 'Racism' all they want, but the above is truth.

That said, IQ does directly effect ability to imagine 'abstract principles'...but such does not necessarily impede ability to comprehend moral, feeling-based Principles. MLK knew that, and expected as much from His (racial) Brethren, as those who opposed Him on racial bases. People should be judged by "not by the color of their skin, but the content of their character". Flawed man (all are), but a better man than me.

Maxine's corruption has been known for a long time, it's a perfect illustration how relatively dumb people can become quite wealthy if they know how to play the politics game...., DC is full of these people. They enter the Swamp with modest wealth, after being in the Swamp 20-40 years their wealth is usually substantially greater and typically more than they should have accrued living in one of the most expensive places and making less than $200k annually.

This stuff never gets traction as many, if not the majority, of 'We the People' are lawless themselves. If it were not so these people wouldn't be elected in the first place much less remain in Office
