"Let’s face it- we live in a depraved culture. I didn’t want to believe it at first, but I fear God may allow our nation to enter into a time of judgment for our collective sins," he said.
“Even after OCE’s exhaustive review of the congresswoman’s personal communications, there is no record of the congresswoman refusing to pay for these expenses,” said Hitt. “To the contrary, there are several explicit, documented communications, from prior to OCE’s review, that show the congresswoman understood that she had to pay for these expenses from her own personal funds—as she ultimately did. We are confident the Ethics Committee will dismiss this matter."
Is that the punishment applied in similar cases? Can you show me a couple examples of house representatives being removed after ethics issues of roughly this magnitude?
Could you show me where I cheer her on?
If you want to, you can list a couple of the ethical issues you speak of. If they are actual ethical issues, I’ll disavow her here and now.
But I can’t imagine that they rise to the utter shit-show that was Santos, who - again - is STILL supported by the majority of house republicans.
Why the what aboutism? Everyone says santos must go. I’ve yet to see anyone defend his actions.
Santos goes beyond politics.
The majority of house republicans wants him to stay. Literally, more house republicans disagree with what you just wrote than agree with it.
But again, I’m not trying to employ any whataboutisms here. List some of AOCs ethical issues, and I’ll disavow her here and now.

I hereby disavow AOC for this ethical issue, she should be punished appropriately.
So you approve her being removed ?

Are we all reading the same shit?

Most resign. Very few people are removed. It’s not a minor violation. It’s fairly severe.
