The irony of Hastings being the IMPEACHMENT (Trump) #1 manager in the House.... when he was impeached and convicted and removed from the Federal judge’s bench, for BRIBERY (seriously proven bribery) by the U.S. Senate. Then went on to run for multiple wins for the House seat he has now permanently vacated.
A major crook (friend was chief invest. on his case-said that Hastings had GOLD plumbing fixtures in his home— the faucet and handles were not plate- they were 18KT gold.

Hastings had been a federal judge and was impeached and convicted by the Senate in the late 1980s. But he then ran for Congress and won in 1992 ...
He was the dean of the Florida congressional delegation as the longest-serving member from the Sunshine State.Ah, the perks of being a democrat, where corruption is a resume enhancer.

This man was a totally corrupt SCUMBAG: “......for his impeachment trial In 1988, the Democratic-controlled United States House of Representatives took up the case, and Hastings was impeached for bribery and perjury by a vote of 413–3. He was then convicted on October 20, 1989, by the United States Senate, which, at the time, was also controlled by Democrats.”
Roast in hell, you disgusting, unrepentant CRIMINAL!!

Farewell to the most corrupt politician since Boss Tweed.
When the Dirtycrats ran Florida I found myself in Alcee’s “district” which was 300 miles away (I actually lived closer to Atlanta than Miami).
Another one of the paint splatter gerrymandered districts the Crats used to keep control of Florida and put scoundrels like Alcee Hastings and Corrine Brown in congress.
Of course Fox/Puke is boohooing over this tragic loss.
Only immunity kept these slimebags out of jail, and when Brown’s paint dribble district was redrawn she went to prison.
I imagine the same would have happened if Hastings lost his place in congress - saved by the reaper.

I was thinking the same thing. The fewer parasite socialists in power the better.
