This impeachment process is like an Organized Crime Family meeting to decide how to punish a member’s nephew for shop-lifting a loaf of bread.

Over the top....

Rep. Alcee Hastings Maxes Out Girlfriend’s Salary for Fifth Straight Year

JOE SCHOFFSTALL MAR 8, 2017 2:47 PM

Rep. Alcee Hastings (D., Fla.) continues to pay his longtime girlfriend the maximum congressional salary of $168,411, and has paid her nearly $2.4 million in salary since 2000.

Hastings also employs his girlfriend’s daughter and the wife of a former staffer who was previously convicted of money laundering.

Patricia Williams, the longtime girlfriend who served as co-counsel during Hastings’ impeachment trial as a federal judge in the 1980s, has worked out of the congressman’s office since 1993. Williams started working for Hastings as a staff assistant and has since been promoted to deputy district director in his Broward County, Florida office.

*****************************************

Per Free Beacon

The Senate, however, did not vote to disqualify him from holding future office. In 1992, Hastings was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives.

In addition to Williams and her daughter, the Democratic congressman brought Dona Nichol Jones, a convicted money-launderer, onto his full-time staff in Palm Beach last year, the Washington Free Beacon previously reported.

Nichol Jones is married to Mikel Jones, who worked for Hastings as a district administrator from 2003 to 2011, when he was convicted of 30 counts of fraud for an elaborate scheme to defraud a lender. Hastings quietly placed Nichol Jones onto his payroll as a “part-time” employee three years after the conviction and consequent firing of her husband.

“for shop-lifting a loaf of bread.”

In this case, more like for passing by the bakery, and possibly smelling the loaf of bread.

No, more like four males in a room with a very attractive woman. One man says let’s have sex with the woman! The woman said NO! The men said let’s vote. The out come of the vote is 4 to 1 to have sex with the woman. The woman points out that without her right to consent, any sex would be rape. Well guess how the Adam Schiff lead men proceed.......
