When do they announce an investigation of Blake Farenthold?? Nice double standard you’ve got there, boys.
In refusing to step down, he said this month that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA)
Pelosi is Speaker of the House? I wish. Come on TPM, hire a proofreader.
I thought they already had said they were reopening the investigation into Farenthold.
Glad that the Ethics Committee is looking at this. Process is important.
He’s a total pig, but has already said he will not seek re-election. Thus, I doubt anything will be done about him.
Well, they could make some pulled pork sandwiches out of him.
“he said this month that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Rep. Ben Ray Lujan (D-NM), the chair of the DCCC, both knew about the allegation during the campaign.”
And because this fucking imbecile said that, we know who the REAL targets of the ethics investigation are. The investigation will not stop unless and until they’ve found something that allows them to generate a superficial justification for reprimanding Pelosi and/or Lujan. Just watch, their first round of requests for interviews or subpoenas will reveal that’s what they’re really after. This dude needs to meet out back by the woodshed.
BTW, where’s Farenthold’s investiagtion? Oh yeah, he’s a GOPer. IOKIYAR
@epicurus
They announced it last week.
Farenthold first, arse wipes…and the others…there is a list…call them out. 1.866.220.0044 or 1.866.338.1015
They did.
They’ve announced the opening of a number of investigations. I’m not sure how much actual investigating is going on though. I guess we’ll find out…if they ever get around to holding any hearings.
Indeed.
