How does Alce Hastings hold office? Any body know. He was convicted of taking bribes as a federal judge and impeached in the Senate? What is up there?
But his district is overwhelmingly black, and he markets himself as a proud victim of The Man.
Fatah's conviction likewise does not disqualify him from elected office. It's up to the body to decide whether to admit a person who was elected, and obviously, being a criminal is not a bar to holding elected office. Each body takes each case, on an individual basis. Double standards abound.
Alcee Hastings is high on my list of examples for DNC corruption.
The R corruption gets the boot. D...not so much.

Someone convicted as he was is not supposed to be able to hold elective office.
However,the prohibition was somehow omitted from being written into the Impeachment conviction paperwork. Nor, was it spoken into the official proceedings record.
He got to run, win, and become a “Representative” based on that omission, a technicality. He’s just another run of the mill crooked, corrupt Democrat. Like Charlie Rangel, Bill, and Hillary.
