>>>Why do they get away with it?

Because adult supervision of the government was removed with the 17th Amendment, when a Senate of the States was replaced with the equivalent of three term Congressmen. We have government by administration for no other reason than because Congress likes it. It relieves them of responsibility to the problems they cause.

Ideally the 17th Amendment gets repealed plus make a Senate term 4 years
