“First order of business: Hobble the ethics committee.”

Makes you wonder what the second order will be.

The Republicans first order of business is to be accountable to no one. Yup, the country is screwed

Might be just the first comeuppance for the GOPers this year as people pay attention to Congress to implement what tRUMP campaigned on instead of biz as usual (i.e. more for themselves & the super-rich)…. the phones lit up… the CONs got the message… lets hope the voters continue to keep them on their toes!

And you saw how successful they were at both attempts? The do-nothing party of NO can’t get its trunk out of its hindside. They didn’t keep Obama to one term, they couldn’t stop ACA, and now they won’t destroy government, they’ll increase it on the backs of the little people. A bunch of loud mouths who like to chant, but can’t seem to get anything real done.

frightening isn’t it? a party that actually listens to its constituents for a change.

90% of the elephants haven’t had any ethics since Reagan.

trump made house gop back down // a big plus for trump// dear dtroutma you think 10% of gop has ethics that is higher than democrats

Republicon business as usual.

If they really listened to constituents, Hillary would have the office she won and Congress would be Democratic, since they usually get 1-5 million more votes than the gerrymandered republicons.

Trump only spoke up because he’d seen the flood on social media calling for their scalps, and tweeted his reaction to save face for himself.(He has no ethic, except greed- for power.)

I like it that they are no longer pretending that the USA is not a plutocracy.
