NY Reps. Torres and Goldman join the presser.
“Of the 535 members in Congress, there’s no one who poses a greater threat to the integrity of the institution.”
TORRES: “His only reason for remaining in public office is to maintain leverage for plea bargain in the event of criminal prosecution. His only purpose is to be a punch line for comedians.”

McCarthy doing exactly what the democrats want! Uni-Party is alive and well!
Santos puts Republicans in a terrible position whether he is removed or resigns. But either way, between what he did and the manner in which he is acting now, he is a DISGRACE. He has no power and will not survive this either way. All he has is a huge salary.
How is he not embarrassed as hell?
And yet a Somali pos can marry her brother so he can get in the country and nothing happens? Not saying Santos doesn’t have to go, but if they want integrity, then launch ethics probe on her , and others, too.
While you’re there how about investigating that moron who had the stroke. His wife is running the show and last I checked she hadn’t been elected to anything!!!
