If not for government, Earl would be calling into the Rennis Rinke Experience from Starbucks.

As a general rule, it's a good practice. But way too many of the people who will vote for this act have gotten rich off our dime.

The bill should apply to congress as well if this guy's intentions were pure. The amount of congressman that go to D.C and become rich is sickening.

Here is a short clip of a CNN reporter asking a question at Representative Blumenauer's press conference:

If Trump's companies offer the best value for the tax payer dollar, fine, if not , they should do business elsewhere.

So, why didn't this frick simply introduce a bill that ensured that tax payer dollars were spent where the tax payer got the most value for their money , instead of this nonsense?

Oh that's right, because this POS doesn't care about making sure the taxpayers get their money's worth, this is just another useless attack on Trump.

Actually if this dumb shite cared about the American tax payer getting their money worth he would introduce a bill demanding that Democrats simply resign from their offices.

Agreed. I would go a step further and make them all admit on camera that nothing about their political service has enriched them.

ALL of them. Rs, Ds, Is.

ALL.

I like the attention this guys is drawing for sure. It's likely to snag more than Trump and that will be lovely.

More from the brilliant Congressman. From his site.

quote:

March 9, 2017 Enewsletter

Dear Friends, With the inauguration of Trump, more attention is being paid to the 25th Amendment to the Constitution. This amendment lays out a process for determining whether a president is able to discharge his or her duties. As I looked into it, I realized that there may need to be further actions in order to make the 25th Amendment work. After conferring with prominent constitutional scholars, I formed a congressional working group to begin addressing these issues.



What a silly loon.

Add judges, FBI agents, directors, etc.

Add all of them. Catch them all.

And it wouldn't pass because they want their power to allow them to get rich. It's scary that all of our major politicians are rich as hell. WTF has Hillary Clinton done to be as rich as she is.

Seems lime a good bill, it would only apply during Trump's tenure in the the White House.

I don't see why anyone would object to this especially given Trump's unprecedented conflicts of interest.
