Congress will NEVER hold itself or its members accountable for any wrongdoing. They have always exempted themselves from the laws they pass for the rest of us to obey.

Exactly. If what Trump did is a felony, then what congress members did in using taxpayer funds is even worse. If they attempt to impeach, then the DOJ should indict every one of the congress people who paid hush money. The old saying: people in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones is very appropriate here.

Is it true that Schiff used taxpayer money to pay a male whom he had sexually harassed?

Oh, but see, what they did was LEGAL, because they okayed it with a law, right? See the difference?
To: Kaslin
If Mueller's theory that paying hush money to somebody is a campaign expenditure, then how is it that all these Congressmen haven't been indicted for using public money for a campaign expenditure.
Let me guess. Mueller's theory only applies to Trump. Or they will say that paying off people harassed by Reps and Senators and making them stay quiet about it was just a personal matter, and would not have affected their campaigns.

Is a travesty that people claiming to represent the people have stolen trillions of dollars from the people for their crimes and of course the people are told these representatives only stole millions.

They used public funds for this. Why don’t we know who they are, what they did and what they paid? I don’t care about the “victims”. I want to know who did it.

The old saying: people in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones is very appropriate here.A good tactic would be to simply have the IRS consider these payments as "income" to the involved congresscritters.
