Suddenly the Constitution matters to them.
Fancy that.
I want to find out how AOC went from not being able to afford to live on $175K/year, to being worth $29 million in a mere 6 years. It wasn’t through honesty or good investment LS, that’s for sure - even Pelosi isn’t that good of an “investor” … and speaking of which (witch?), I want that old drunk investigated also. As a start - investigate EVERYONE in Congress - their will be few people opposed to that.
Shocker......snx.
We need to look deep into the wealth that these scumbag politicians have accumulated over the years. They’ve been gang raping US for decades. Its time for confiscation of that wealth.
More honor than you'll ever muster, Max.
Hundreds? Quite impressive!
Rep. LaMonica McIver (D) literally called out for war against her political opposition. Used the Lord’s name in vain while doing so. She is an insurrectionist. Hope AG Bondi has someone looking into it.
>Suddenly the Constitution matters to them.
Except for all that illegal spending, extra-Constitutional dept/agencies+ (IE: USAID), ‘law’ via un-elected bureaucracy, 2nd A. violations....the list to L-O-N-G.
” Representative Maxwell Frost told the crowd. “What’s going to stop him from stealing taxpayer money?”
Do they listen to themselves? You honestly can’t make this up.
I don’t believe these grifters will get the results they seek. Elon exposed the thieves. Being mad at the detective, instead of the thieves is retarded.
More protests today on The Hill.
Democrats are protesting for “More Foreign Aid Now”
L-O-N-G..........
Democrats private bank returned to the U.S. government agendas on hold.
The sound of prison doors opening ensues.
Hundreds = a few dozen paid actors.

A group of Republican House members stood alongside a non-profit organization Wednesday as it released the 32nd edition of the “Congressional Pig Book,” an annual, published compilation of “pork-barrel” projects in the federal budget, in an effort to shed light on what they view as wasteful pet projects.
The non-profit group Citizens Against Government Waste has published a collection of pork-barrel spending every year since 1991. The book features lawmakers from both sides of the aisle who the authors say are responsible for spending earmarks, known as community project funding, which direct federal dollars to specific “pet projects” in members’ home states and districts.
The authors hosted an event, featuring a live pig named Poppy, to raise awareness over the number of earmarks. The group found a total of 8,222 earmarks in the past fiscal year, which cost $22.7 billion. Several House Republicans, including Reps. Tom McClintock (R-CA), Debbie Lesko (R-AZ), and Ralph Norman (R-SC) spoke out to slam the spending practice.
