If being truthful was a requirement for holding public office, there would not be anyone in Congress, THEY ALL LIE
You’re right! They ALL do.
Santos (the man who never was) by getting as far as he did, showed just how flawed our political party system really is.
They all participate in the fiction that Congress is doing its job as set forth in the U.S. Constitution.
Which, of course, due to the complete elimination of the committee system as the same is supposed to relate to the gradual creation and eventual passage every year of that law we used to refer to as the U.S. Federal Government’s Annual Federal Spending Budget, Congress is now a n illegal and illegitimate Bizarro-Congress, and has been for well over ten years.
