“Could this be a strategy to whitewash Democrat ethics and portray the charges as racist attacks...”
Ding, ding, ding, ding ding.

they can wait until the GOP seize control of the House and Senate and go to jail.
Targeting blacks will be their outcry.
God help America.
What i find most puzzling about the Rangel case is he broke the law and should probably be investigated by the FBI. If he loses his seat he loses its inherent protection. The ethics committee knows this and yet discussed a reprimand?
I can see why he refuses to admit guilt because the feds can use that if they charge him. Why the committee is giving him cover is beyond me. They get tarred as well as he if they are too easy on him. Surely they know this.
Maxine intervened where she had a financial interest. I’m sure we will all have the hope that she rises up to where we all hoped Blago would go and didn’t. She may cry racist,of that i have no doubt but beyond that she probably knows of a few cases just like her own where politicians intervened for financial gain. Like Rangel this is probably a prosecutable offense so expect her to do what she can to hang onto her seat and its ability to afford some protection.
Yes. I smell a rat—256 of them.
