I wonder if a scandal is brewing with him too?

I think that is probably a pretty safe bet. 8>) I am delighted he is retiring, & I sincerely hope he still has many accusations leveled against him and spends his retirement in shame in a prison cell.

Good riddance! I doubt he’ll stop his racist ways, LaRaza may have made him an offer he couldn’t refuse.

Cave man sex. Eeewwww.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Yup.

Easy to understand why his staffer was getting coked up before their sexual relations.

She’s got a $1.8 mm lawsuit going against the cave man.

Wonder if that settlement gets tacked on to the tax payer funded congressional sexual harassment slush fund?

I’m guessing he is about to be exposed as a sexual predator of young

Exactly. From what I've seen of him he is not doing this simply to spend more time with his family. Something else is going on.
