And so it begins
This vote occurred against the wishes of the House Speaker and Majority Leader. How can the swamp be drained when they eliminate the Independent Oversight Committee and now will determine if their acts rise to the criminal level on their own? -

This is how democracy dies. . . .
I'm not at all surprised this happened. Worse is coming. Far worse.
Those silly fools who thought Obama was coming for their guns. There's a nightmare in the offing.
Checks and balances are dissolving before our eyes. -

Agree, andre and kindheart.
I don't trust Trump's remarks on the subject, either. He's happy to be "disingenuous" if he thinks it will make him look good. His henchmen are in place and he'll be happy to play good cop/bad cop. I wouldn't trust Trump as far as I could throw him. . .and I could never lift that mountain of fat and hot air. -

My issue is they seem to have no concept of why they were elected. I felt that way when they made it legal for them and only them to legally profit from insider trading. The American people need to wake up and vote these people out of office. They don't represent us anymore. They only represent themselves.

Agree, zabbree. The insider trading is blatantly criminal.
As Joy said today, "They have no shame."
I think this ethics office incident was all a sham. Trump wanted to appear to be a hero. Look at the names of the 119 members of the House who voted in favor of gutting the committee last night. I called the offices of several this morning. A couple staff members were brave enough to admit shock. They know they're on a runaway train and they're taking democracy with it.
There's an August deadline on this. The GOP is hoping no one will be paying attention then. -

There's no need to fear.
SuperTrump is here!
When liberals in this world appear
And break the laws that they should fear
And frighten all who see and hear
A cry goes up both far and near for
SuperTrump (SuperTrump!)
SuperTrump (SuperTrump!)
Speed of lightning, roar of thunder
Fighting all who rob or plunder
SuperTrump!
