Conyers's Settlement With Former Staffer Was Paid Out of His Office Account

Weekly Standard ^

[BusterDog]

Documents show the woman was declared a "temporary employee," and the payment did not come from the Office of Compliance.

[NEMDF]

It came out of taxpayers’ contributions, either way, it seems.

[Red Badger]

Well, okay, then................

[RckyRaCoCo]

What a piece of work...

[BusterDog]

I think settlement claims paid out of office accounts are illegal.

[Bulwinkle]

Conyers EMBEZZLED $27,000 to bribe the accuser...
Forget the sex, it about embezzlement

[SMARTY]

If his constituents don’t care, then why should anyone else?

[dp0622]

Anyone know if there’s a crime in this?

besides robbing the taxpayer, which gets you a badge in DC

[forgotten man]

I wonder if she is that pretty, young black girl that Laura Ingraham interviewed about two weeks ago. The young girl said that she was harassed by members of the congressional black caucus.

[Dr. Ursus]

Did she get a free frozen turkey?

[Political Junkie Too]

And let's not forget that the missus went to prison for taking bribes.

-PJ

[Red Badger]

She was ‘staff’ and she was ‘paid’.

Just a little bit more than everyone else.

End of story.................B^)

[Lopeover]

Only because he wanted to diddle an employee who worked for a temporary employment agency? She wasn’t a federal employee.

[Vlad The Inhaler]

Ultimately it came from US citizens instead of from the pocket of the scum-bag politician himself.

[Red Badger]

I’m sure he’s from a ‘safe’ district..............

[Yo-Yo]

If his constituents don’t care, then why should anyone else?

His WIFE was put in jail for taking bribes while on the Detroit City Council, and his constituents didn't care then, either.

[JimRed]

If his constituents don’t care, then why should anyone else?

As in nature, protective coloration at work!

[boycott]

People like Conyers and Joe Barton WOULD BE FIRED if they worked jobs like the rest of us. Same for Al Franken.

We need to START FIRING ALL THESE SWAMPRATS!

[Caipirabob]

You just know O’Connell and Ryan are on deck. It is just a matter of time until they are exposed and their masks ripped off in public. Tick, tock...

[Calvin Locke]

I just remembered that there were some inconsistencies in the filing of signatures for Conyers to run for office one or two elections ago.

A judge gave Conyers a pass. IIRC, wasn't there an Pubbie OH or MI congresscritter that didn't get the same consideration four or five cycles ago?
