Still waiting for the list of politicians who took advantage of the long-standing slush fund to make sexual misconduct allegations go away. Don't care who it is or what party they're from. Would like to know who used my tax dollars for this purpose. Preferably before the mid-terms.

And yes, as part of the 1st Amendment, I do have the right to protest or speak up to my congressperson.
Some people on this board think Russia is a democracy. So, grain of salt and all that...

I’m more interested to see if Congressman Dana Rohrabacher (R-Russia) seeks re-election.

Dana’s the only congressman that Russian Intel reportedly thought deserving his own code name.

yes, I agree there are those on both sides that need to call it a day or a career or whatever, but right now the GOP does seem to have more newer, younger faces. Oh, they have plenty of older guys and gals as well. don't necessarily agree with you it has much to do with sexual misconduct .

And this doesn't apply to you, but for all of you who think the name calling is necessary go back home and stop playing on the school playground. Name calling you know is a form of bullying.

Russia considers GOP lawmaker an intel source worthy of his own code name: report | TheHill
you are paying too much attention to the liberal media. And yes, that goes for Wikipidia as well. I would be a bit surprised if Dana decides to hang it up this year, but imagine he will before too long. He isn't nearly as old as some but he has been around for a heck of a long time. He was a speech writer for Reagan just before becoming a congressman.

Paul Ryan said Dana is on Putin's payroll. Is he the liberal media?
