AAhhh, is the OGE or House Oversight going to refer this to the DOJ for prosecution?

Oops. Wilbur got caught lying. Hmmm. Time for him to retire into the sunset.

Of course, being a traditionalist, Wilbur sticks to the original and not the Disney version. When he met Jiminy, he squooshed him good and hard. No need for any of that conscience nonsense getting in the way of making money.

…and the outcome of this pattern of attempting to hide information from the government will be…

Oh, please. This is ridiculous. How many times did Kushner have to “amend” his statements before someone gave up asking? Ross can always begin to drool if anyone brings up again that he still seems to have been unable to effect a simple stock sale that he promised he would do. How are you going to yell at an old prune who’s slobbering on the table while you try to get his attention? This guy has his act down pat.

As infractions go, Wilbur Ross has probably committed more serious crimes before lunch this morning.

Unflippin’ believable. The Trump administration makes the Harding administration look like play-time. Watergate? Pfffft. The scale of corruption is truly breathtaking.

Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR), the ranking member of the Senate Finance Committee and a past critic of Ross’ financial entanglements, told TPM in a statement Tuesday: “Trump’s own ethics watchdog today confirmed that Secretary Ross violated his ethics agreement and federal ethics laws by lying about stock holdings he was supposed to divest.”

“Ross lied repeatedly, for years, about selling off stocks that posed a conflict of interest,” Wyden continued. “Ross continues to show open disdain for the most basic checks on corruption.”

Willl lbuuuuur looks like someone who actually needs a billion dollars. I’s all he has going for his sorry, ugly ass.

Wilbur Lying Sack Of Shit Ross

(OGE warned Ross in July that his “various omissions and inaccurate statements” in financial forms “created the potential for a serious criminal violation.”)

OK, so how long does it take? How many mulligans does he get? Hint OGE: if he blew you off in July and only ‘fixed’ it when it was brought to your attention by an outside agency, he is spitting on the law and wiping his ass on your ethics regs.

It certainly cannot be too soon! The House could at least establish a Select Committee on Impeachment and schedule and begin hearings.
