Breitbart: The House Ethics Committee on Thursday announced it has expanded its examination of possible campaign finance violations by Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI).
The committee released a series of eyebrow-raising messages in which the freshman congresswoman asks for congressional campaign money to help relieve her personal financial struggles.
According to Federal Election Commission (FEC) filings, Tlaib paid herself $17,500 from her campaign bank account following her election in 2018. Lawmakers are prohibited from compensating themselves using campaign funds once they are elected.
The panel stated:
The Committee notes that the mere fact of conducting further review of a referral, and any mandatory disclosure of such further review, does not itself indicate that any violation has occurred, or reflect any judgment on behalf of the Committee.
Communications published by the House Ethics panel show the Michigan Democrat reaching out to her staff members in search of money amid mounting personal debt. MORE
SNIP: The HOUSE is investigating? Could this be some payback ordered by Nancy Pelosi or Steny Hoyer?
The ethics panel will clear her, and henceforth the story will be declared “debunked “. Next!
I think I can co-opt Tlaib’s own language against her when I say, “Impeach that motherfucker.”
CAIR, Hamas and Islamic Jihad hardest hit.
It will be called “rule breaking” or “wrong-doing”. The left has a different justice system than the rest of us.
Making the tax free stipend from Congress…[extortion]
Talib* could afford to conceal her ugly face totally,
And do the rest of us a favor,
She could hang the covering on her antlers,
* Moose from Minnesota
extirpates, this moose is from Michigan. The moose from Minnesota is Ilhan Omar.
Pretty soon she’ll run out of OPM (Other Peoples’ Money).
Swindling like a true Palestinian!
I swear she looks just like Al Franken.
Her excuse is she is a mother who was working full time and she had to quit working, so she had no income and had to support her children.
So how rude of everyone wanting to make her children homeless and hungry.
Hopefully she will prefer the fleas of a thousand camels infest her armpits to what the Ethics Committee reveals.
the ethics committee needs to be staffed by non-politicians if they are serious about ethics.
Unlike the roger Stone jury
House Ethics is an OxyMoron…
