Take A Number and Wait in Line
Republican Congressmen now have to take a number and wait in line to resign.
The latest is California Congressmuck Duncan Hunter. Hunter is being investigated along with his parents and a female lobbyist he is suspected to be “romantically involved” with. “Romantically involved” is the Republican word for “boinking on the side.”
It strongly appears that Hunter has misspent campaign funds.
According to an ethics report released along with the disclosure, Hunter “may have converted tens of thousands of dollars of campaign funds from his congressional campaign committee to personal use to pay for family travel, flights, utilities, healthcare, school uniforms and tuition, jewelry, groceries and other goods, services, and expenses.”
Hunter’s staff also told the Riverside Press-Enterprise in January that he used campaign funds to pay the $600 cost of flying a family rabbit.
This ain’t the first time Hunter has been in trouble for spending campaign funds for fun. Over a year ago, he had to repay his campaign for 68 video games (he said his son used the wrong credit card), oral surgery, a family trip to Italy and Disneyland gift shop purchases.
You think he would have learned. But, nooooo …. Trump got elected and made them bulletproof.
Or maybe not.
Thanks to Chloe Bear for the heads up.
