Quite a surprise. This is so unlike Republicans to do anything corrupt or dishonest.

This is Mr. Householders second time as House Speaker. He held the position from 2001 to 2004 and left office during a federal probe in which he and several advisers were being investigated for money laundering. No charges were filed in the case. lmao --- i am the headline ... Copied to Clipboard!

I wouldn't say every politician, there are probably some exceptions, but certainly every party. The reasoning surely differs between parties. There's personal gain, of course, but the price differs and the cost of the people they represent changes. --- Warning: Sometimes biased https://imgur.com/V0x5fw8 https://imgur.com/IOovUge https://imgur.com/zw7bqPH ...

Quite a surprise. This is so unlike Republicans to do anything corrupt or dishonest. I remember Jon Stewart did a whole bit after Nancy Pelosi commented on a corruption case and said that her party would never do anything like that where he highlighted 4 examples of Democrats engaging in corruption within either the last week or last month (including an anti-gun state senator who tried to sell guns to terrorists). Not to mention that one of CT's current Democrat mayors was previous convicted of racketeering the last time he was mayor... and got re-elected after he was released from prison (and then he ran for governor, and he was STILL better than the asshole who won the primary). Corruption is a bipartisan thing. At any rate, what's not a surprise is that you only seem to highlight the party when a Republican does it >_> rjsilverthorn posted... I wouldn't say every politician, there are probably some exceptions, but certainly every party. The only truly honest politician in the last 50 years might have been Jimmy Carter and he was a terrible president. --- (\/)(\/)|-| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. ...

1. Not true. I made a topic about those politicians, Diane Feinstein included, dumping stock at the start of the pandemic, and remarked how they should all be in prison. Far-Queue posted... Quite a surprise. This is so unlike Republicans to do anything corrupt or dishonest. Pretty much suggests an exclusivity. Arcturusisnow posted... Yeah, which party is trying to kill minorities right now? Oh yeah, the republicans. User Info: Arcturusisnow Regardless, both parties are killing minorities, although it's stupid to highlight minorities anyway instead of looking at deaths as a whole. --- (\/)(\/)|-| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. ...

Edit-I'm also not sure about that list you posted. The source quoted in the article is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_federal_political_scandals_in_the_United_States but it doesn't seem to match up against this one https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_federal_officials_convicted_of_corruption_offenses but the fact that we have multiple articles to choose from is pretty telling on the state of US politics. ...
