House Ethics Committee Makes Decision
Regarding Jamaal Bowman Pulling Fire Alarm

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 11/22/2023 6:18:17 PM

On Wednesday, the House Ethics Committee voted against opening an investigation or a report into Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY), who, on September 30, pulled the fire alarm while the House was voting to avert a government shutdown. Doing so is a violation of the DC code, and Bowman was charged by the DC Attorney General and pled guilty last month. The Department of Justice (DOJ) declined to charge Bowman for "obstructing an official proceeding," despite how the congressman pulling the fire alarm when there was no such emergency disrupted the vote.

They also turned a blind eye toward Talibs occupational insurrection of Palestinian supporters during a house session, Mad Maxines misuse of campaign funds and the fact that she lives outside her representative area, Omar's campaign funds misuse and her questionable means of entering the country, but by golly, we're going to get George Santos for embellishing his life story to get elected. Thank God we don't have a pResident that would embellish his life story! Does the last sentence need to be marked as sarcasm?

No surprise. The First Commandment of punishing Ethics violations in Congress is not to acknowledge any violations by any of their fellow congressmen because these corrupt politicians follow the old saying of "One Hangs, Everybody Hangs". This is all generated by self-preservation of their own evil butts. Communist Death Democrats and their republican lackeys both.

Federal investigators have released further details on a network of “sophisticated high-end brothels” that serviced politicians, military officials, and government contractors, revealing that the alleged ringleaders kept “impeccable” records of their million-dollar operation. The prostitution ring was busted earlier this month by the Department of Justice (DOJ), with three Korean nationals arrested for their alleged roles in orchestrating the criminal network. Han Lee, 41, James Lee, 68, and Junmyung Lee, 30, “walked through the border safeguards that have been relaxed by President Joe Biden’s border chief, Alejandro Mayorkas,” Breitbart News reported after their arrests on November 8.

Congress is demanding answers from the Biden administration about a secret spying program that tracks more than a trillion phone records from innocent and unsuspecting Americans each year. The under-the-radar system, known as Data Analytical Services or 'Hemisphere,' has been in operation for over a decade. It allows federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies to tap into the phone records of U.S. citizens who have not been accused of any crime. Under the Hemisphere program the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) pays phone service provider AT&T to hand over phone records as far back as 1987.

Biden’s 2024 Border Pitch: Trump Will

President Joe Biden’s campaign is previewing their 2024 theme for the central issue of immigration: Donald Trump will make the border chaos even worse. “He’s promising to make it worse: Rounding up Latinos into mass detention camps, ending birthright citizenship, and shooting people at will,” says a Thanksgiving Day script from the Biden campaign. The Democrat pitch completely ignores Biden’s border record. Since 2021, Biden has helped his corporate donors by extracting millions of migrants from poor countries to help flood the U.S. labor and housing markets. Those migrants gravitated toward the major Democrat-run cities, spiked inflation, reduced wages, and drained job-creating investment from heartland states.

Either having open borders is a good public policy or it isn’t. At least in my simpleminded view people whose job it is to set policy should do so based on what is good for the country. That’s not how Aaron Blake of the Washington Post sees things, at least from his point of view as a political analyst. For him, it is all about the polling. Democrats could get away with open borders while the Democrat base was OK with it. But now that Democrats don’t care for it, it may be time to change policies. At least he is open about it; Democrats can harm the country all they want until
