“The House Republicans’ move would take away both power and independence from an investigative body, and give lawmakers more control over internal inquiries.”
Can we hope that they may be a little more ruthless than the board has been?
Is this next one for real or did you add it as satire?
“It also came on the eve of a historic shift in power in Washington, where Republicans control both houses of Congress and where a wealthy businessman with myriad potential conflicts of interest is preparing to move into the White House.”
With regards to your tagline, that is exactly what I have had to exchange. Shocking, but all too real.
There’s a few on this board that have been through it and mentioned it a few times over the years.
It’s a whole new ballgame.
I don’t falsify fake news. It’s already fake enough. :)
Is this a move to end what has really been a panel to bury ethics violations?
” .... a wealthy businessman with myriad potential conflicts of interest is preparing to move into the White House.”
Darn tootin! We want a president who has NO resume, who’s never run a business, who is dependent on the ‘good will’ of the wealthy (or the taxpayers) to afford their luxurious lifestyle and to fund their campaigns. Not potential conflicts of interest there! That is the successful formula for the NYT.
**myriad potential conflicts of interest**
New York Times, pick up the white phone. Your bias is showing.
Hillary was not wealthy and had no conflicts of interest with the Clinton Foundation.
There. I finished their paragraph.
