If It Ain’t One, It’s The Other, And It’s Probably Both
All Republicans are nincompoops. They will steal the gold out of their grandma’s teeth.
The Office of Congressional Ethics (OCE) concluded in a report made public on Monday that there is “substantial” evidence that Rep. Steven Palazzo (R-Miss.) misused campaign as well as official funds and used his office to help his brother in violation of House rules.
Yep, it’s a white guy from Mississippi. He charged his campaign $82,363 to use his lakeside property as a campaign headquarters. He was trying to sell the property and it needed sprucing-up. He also sent his staff to the property to oversee the maintenance and help with selling it.
And … he had his staff get his kids ready for camp and send them goodie boxes while they were at camp.
And … he helped his brother to upgrade his reenlistment code for the Navy.
And I’m sure there’s more. He’s being represented by, of course, a former a congressman.
“Republican” is a four syllable word for “Crook”
1Let me count the ways: white, male, straight, Christian, Mississippi, Southern, politician.
Damn….as a gay, married, senior citizen, atheistic elite prick……I’m verklempt.
2This is why the QGOPpers were so intent on reelecting the Orange Moron: He sucked up all the oxygen and “minor” indiscretions like this guy’s went by the wayside, despite all of Alfredo’s efforts. Not no more! Tee and then a Hee!
3I guess if it was good enough for his idol, the former golden fraudster in chief, it should be good enough for him. Using campaign funds as a personal bank account is the repugnantican way.
4‘He also sent his staff to the property to oversee the maintenance and help with selling it.’
What, you mean like scrubbing toilets, mowing grass and pool cleaning?
5Rep Palazzo: ‘Someday – and that day may never come – I’ll call upon you to do a service for me… perhaps an alibi. But until that day, just lay low.’
6Meanwhile, Jackson, MS, has had their water system breaking down. No water, no money to fix it, no plans to fix it. The mayor has thrown out estimates of over $1B required.
I’m sure this noble son of the state is frantically trying to pass a bill to upgrade the water infrastructure in the US. That, or has invested heavily in bottled water industries. In any case, it must have failed because of transgender students using the “wrong” bathroom. Or it’s from ANTIFA terrorists flushing cherry bombs down the toilets. It’s obviously the fault of the Democrats and socialists like AOC and Biden.
7He might easily have gotten a pass on the real estate but the navy shenanigan sounds really dumb. That’s the sort of thing that other congresscritters don’t want to be associated with even at second-hand.
8We need to start following he example of France – they’re sending a former President to jail for his criminal activity!
9A surprising number of actual democracies have done so earlier — South Korea, Peru and others.
