Whatever his failings, embattled Rep. Michael Grimm isn’t bashful. The Staten Island Republican crashed a press conference held by House GOP leaders Thursday, according to House aides, and emerged touting his proximity to party leaders who’ve steered clear of him since his indictment last month. Grimm spokesman Nick Iacono said the congressman, a Marine Corps veteran, “was welcomed to attend” the news conference where House Republicans urged the Senate to take up a bill making it easier to fire officials at the Department of Veterans Affairs.
