He sure scumed quickly to Inside the Beltway greed. There is a saying about politics is now Hollywood for ugly people.

“tens of thousands of dollars in questionable mileage reimbursements.”

Yea, and I’ll bet Politico and the MSM spend hours pouring over the mileage statements turned in by Democrats.

Sadly, if he’d been a Democrat, we wouldn’t even be having this conversation.

It would be EXPECTED, and any criticism of it would be played down by CNN as “Political posturing”.

He’s Corrupt? He should apply for a job in the IRS, HHS, EPA, DHS, DOJ, State Dept, or White House.

Schock will be “embraced” by the other side of the aisle and the hot pink belt crowd, and gainfully employed before he can get his exit form signed. Let’s set the clock, shall we?

Does the governor now get to appoint someone to fill this seat? Special election?

Not shedding any tears over this. Who is the best conservative non-Combiner for the special election? It’s one of the safest GOP seats in the Midwest.

To fill a House of Representatives seat is by special election.
Only Senators can be appointed.

Politico is Hillary’s coven. They are chasing thousands taken by Republicans, but are not interested in the millions she took from foreigners seeking favors from her while she was Sec. of State.Typical of rats.

For that little, Republicans resign.

Hillary has a trail of dead bodies, millions of dollars of in obvious bribery, obstruction of justice, etc. and is still on target as the Democrat Presidential nominee.

My friend texted me this morning that he resigned.

My response, “was he finally outed as being gay?”
