Link works, Pyro. Get yourself a modern computer. Maybe take a class at a senior center.

Link worked for me too. Question: Is this the same ethics committee that the GOP tried to take down their first day back in session?

Hi Happiegirl
No, two separate ethics offices.
The one the link references is the overall Office of Government Ethics
The other one which yes the Republican controlled House of Representatives
voted last Monday to close down is their own House Ethics office.
When the media put out that story the angry phone calls flooded the
Republicans and so the very next day they voted again to table their prior vote.
If only they could have done it in secret all those pesky future Ethics investigations
could have been stopped, pity.

Ok, good- since catching a nasty case of the Trump, GOP symptoms include Post Anal Drip.
Drip, drip, drip...

People who freely and happily associate with racists, KKK, rapists, should give large consideration to what their dignity means, compared with their reality, and ACTUAL decency
This appears to be a very jaded opinion of those of us who live in Middle America.

LOL... if you guys can stay this frothy for this long this early in the process, you are in for a LONNNNGGGGGG eight years.
Seriously, some of you aren't gonna make it, all worked up as you are already.
I recommend pacing yourselves. Don't blow your wad so hard so fast.
It's about the journey not the ending. Get into the journey.
Some of you are at an age when you are likely to blow a gasket! You know, "Is your heart healthy enough for sex?" and related questions.

John, perhaps so. I can envision a situation where one "goes along to get along". I imagine that was what happened in a lot of communities where blacks "were kept in their place" through means that were and are abhorrent.
But I don't give a pass to those who go along passively. To get along, keep silent as the noose is passed over the head, the church is bombed, the wages not paid.
I don't imply that this is everyone in middle America, it is not. However, only a person gets to choose who their name is associated with, and who they allow to point to them.
If one is not VERY very careful, before long one is contriving why the end justifies the means....any means.

I have zero tolerance for anyone who voted for Trump. I call them on their BS.

Silencers are hard to buy, but Donald Trump Jr. and the gun industry want to change that
The president-elect’s son — who is joining gunmakers in promoting legislation to ease restrictions — says silencers would protect shooters’ ears. Critics, however, fear the devices could aid in crimes and violence.
Now, we'll be much safer. When the mass executioner starts shooting, we can remain that much more content in our imaginations, until he gets to us.

Wait! So are you saying that the DNC didn't rig the primary with Clinton in cahoots?
Is that what you're saying?

You know you have a point MB.Good on you.
Russia is one very different story and you know it.
So the better question to someone who hates our gov so much,which do you prefer.
Your ideals have a lot in common with the authoritarian Russian regime.
