Maxine Waters commits 3 ethics violations

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

The whole thing is rigged. It started with Obama putting his hench men in places of power. Promotions and more power took over the FBI and other Gov’t agencies.
The good guys soon knew their place and should STFU if they wanted to keep their jobs or be promoted in the normal cycle of things to provide for their families.
What is going on now with the JD is anachy. That’s a damn fact. Until some brave agents come together and say “no more” it’s going to stay the same. If anything, there needs to be a damn investigation of the Fking Justice Dept / FBI!

Jeff Sessions should burn in Hell because HE is to blame for letting the place run wild. Coming into office harrumphing like a Blazing Saddles character all noble and recusing himself.
All he did is show up for work and do crossword puzzles. He let Rod Rosenstein run completely wild and the bad guys do whatever and get away with anything. Christopher Wray at FBI is just as bad. DOJ and FBI are partisan and untrustworthy, and only a truly honest AG appointing a truly honest Special Prosecutor and turning him loose on these douchebags would ever do any good.
And that's only if there are any honest judges left.

Savage has been screaming about this for years.

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

You’re right. Sessions really let everyone down.
As much as I disliked Barry, he recruited the best yes-men there were to implement his ideas.
I mean ValJars ideas.

If anybody on the committee has a sense of humor, they’ll find a way to discuss “creddick cards” with her.

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

So what is she did Trump committed at least 500.

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

List them.
Go on. I’ll wait. And I’ll be counting, too.

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.
