When the people on the right try and claim the left is the swamp....I look at things like this.

A congressman who just straight up lies about who he is, and far more cheering on that the ethics committee is being destroyed. And the GOP is 100% ok with it.

Eventually folks will realize that the GOP is saying who they are.

Amazing.

What can make you look more guilty of ethics violations, than to gut the committee pre-emptively?

And REALLY Santos? You didn't see your place here, at the announcement of gutting the ethics committee, is to look at your shoes and don't comment?

hahahahaha That you think it is destroyed is laughable. It was about how they conduct business.

And all the other sheep fell for it

That's not a fair characterization of what happened.

You seem to be under the mistaken impression that the ethics committee has anything to do with ethics. Newflash: A more accurate name would be the "Investigate the Opposition Committee". Welcome to the real world.

If the ethics comittee is already a spineless joke, then it should be gutted.

The key thing here is that congress doesn't want a strong ethics committee, that's sadly non-partisan.
