if they’re being blackmailed, then it’s their duty to relinquish their seat

[unlearner]

That or they don’t need to be blackmailed if they are phony, traitorous leftists.

[Vision Thing]

“What are Scalia, Thomas and Alito thinking?”

They are probably thinking they are like Eliot Ness’s team in Chicago gangland, doing what they can to clean up a corrupt shithole while all the while remaining The Untouchables.

Yep. But they are only valuable to the blackmailer if they can do their bidding, I'm sure it's been made crystal clear to them that their little secrets are only safe as long as they are useful.

Step down and be exposed.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Maybe Roberts but you don’t have to blackmail a politician all you have to do is line their pockets with money and assure them a seat at the table. They will fall in line with no problem.

Like Trump said “If you can’t make a deal with a politician you can’t make a deal”. :=)

[LouAvul]

Most likely. The communists in Russia would entrap American politicians with ..... whatever. The demoCraps are communists. Yeah, I’m guessing they are blackmailing key members of the Repugnant party.

I can’t see video due to dial up. But I believe one of two things are happening. Either Blackmail or they are so corrupt they are being paid off too create a one party government meaning they are either devout Marxist, Globalist, or Communist with an agenda to destroy this nation. I’m beginning to think that is their full intention and they have an illusion they will be the ones allowed to be in power once the takeover is completed. Nation means nothing too them, nor honoring oaths so help them GOD, nor this nation.

[onedoug]

They sure act it.

[laplata]

I believe it goes beyond blackmail. Many have been threatened, including their families.

They’ve been told if the love their wife, children, grandchildren, they had better tow the line.

They have been told that they can make noise for appearance sake but don’t dare cross the line.

[PoloSec]

I think Reason,Logic and Observation does conclude... Yes They Are!

[arthurus]

All the senators and reps are either blackmailed or implicitly bribed. At the least they are given to know that their future wealth is assured whatever their re-election outcomes if they play along with the establishment but will be limited to their salary and perks as well as lose out on chairmanships and the like if they do not and their re-elections will be opposed by their own party. Supreme Court Justices are not immune, either.

It does not matter how many defiant conservatives we elect when three quarters of them immediately sign up for the gravy train upon reaching DC.

[Jack Deth]

Considering that all Obama and his inner circle know is winning through intimidation and strong arm Chicago politics... Sure!

[cva66snipe]

I think it's time to end the corporate and "ALL" PAC gravy train. Have candidates solely dependent upon individual donors with public accessible Donor list. No Corporate Donors, No PAC Donors, Foreign Donors a Felony, only individuals who are U.S. Citizens allowed to donate. Money spent should equal or be close to money donated. This would eliminate the likes of Rove and ones like him or if possible worse than him who seem to be calling all the shots and distributing the wealth in DC. Until Rove, McCain, and Graham are off the air on FOX NEWS as their so called "voice" of the GOP. FNC is locked out on my receivers. FOX NEWS does Conservatism far more damage then help.

I also think Term Limits needs to come up for national public vote for all branches of government including the Judaical Branch and the USSC. It should not be till death appointment.

the blackmailer could expose the person once they stepped down, but it gains little except to serve as an example to others.

of course, in order for the blackmail to work, the press must be complicit with the blackmailer in order to spread the word far and wide.

[867V309]

They are there to make money....lots of it and in that pursuit, their political survival is all that matters to them! Sad but true!

It's all about the gravy train.

[arthurus]

Repeal the 17th Amendment and in the amendment repealing the 17th add term limits of ONE term only. That would reduce severely the value of the lobbyists and reduce their compensation accordingly. It would reduce the value of buying congressmen and much of the corporate and foreign money would dry up.

Guido breaking Simon's legs doesn't get The Mob a dime out of Simon. Why do you suppose The Mob has a Giudo or fifty?

Thank Gawd Almighty that "our" press would never be complicit, eh?

Is it worth mentioning that Bill Clinton went to Moscow as a college student?

I bet the KGB had some very interesting videos of him diddling Russian girls. Very young Russian girls, and maybe boys, too.

[Chickensoup]

If you are able to blackmailed, you are probably not fit to serve in office.

Bull! Alinsky tactics! Hold your opponent to their own high standards and not yourself. This cripples them.

People are not perfect and to expect thus is to kill your own side.

One definitely for senate maybe two for congress simply due to two year terms. They should live in their home state. No more DC or outlying areas Residence. Either live in home state and face We The People or leave office.
