The House Ethics Committee has opted not to open an investigation into Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) over his pulling of a fire alarm in a Capitol Hill office building while the lower chamber was preparing to vote on a bill to avert a government shutdown.
On Oct. 26, Bowman pleaded guilty to one count of falsely pulling the alarm and agreed to pay a $1,000 fine as part of an agreement with DC Attorney General Brian Schwalb that will see the charges dismissed after three months.
He also pledged to write a personal apology letter to US Capitol Police chief Tom Manger.
“I’m thankful for the quick resolution from the D.C. Attorney General’s office on this issue and grateful that the United States Capitol Police General Counsel’s office agreed I did not obstruct nor intend to instruct any House vote or proceedings,” Bowman, 57, said in a statement after the plea was announced

The House Ethics Committee has opted not to have “Ethics”
Jamaal= dogshit
Ever since Jan 6, we’ve been watching a real time insurrection.
Justice has been perverted. There is none any more in this country, unless God metes it out.
During a politically motivated Dem Ethics Committee vendetta against the GOP in the 90s, comedian Mark Russell had in his standup routine:
“You know this is nothing new. The Democrats were also investigated for ethics a while ago.
None were found.”
Rubbing our noses in it.
I’m SO glad Republicans took the House last cycle and will fight for truth and integrity in government. They are real fighters and are on OUR side. Huzzah!! Huzzah!! Huzzah!!
Boy, Epstein’s list must be huge. Only reason to snatch victory from winning the House. So sick of all of this winning /s.
Another WTF moment enhanced by the usual GOP cowardice and deceit...
PURE UNMITIGATED BULL$}{!T !!!
THIS POS RACISTS WALKS AWAY FROM THE EXACT SAME THING THAT WOULD PUT ANY OF US IN THE GULAG !!!
Phukk, this shit!!!
Two-tiered justice = no justice.
...when Republicans are in the majority, they are gutless wonders who won't pursue anything.
FU GOPe.
He’s a RAT minority token. One of the big boyz on the RAT plantation. Why risk hurtin’ his feelings?
I cannot find the results of the Ethics Committee vote. The committee is divided equally among rats and Republicans. It takes a majority vote to open an investigation.
I’m leaning toward the 5 rats voting NO and the 5 Republicans voting YES. No majority.
EC
Swalwell slept with a Chinese spy for years, and remains on the House Intelligence Committee.
Did anyone really think anything would happen to the radical Marxist Bowman?
“White Privilege” rears its ugly head once again.
I'm leaning toward 5 dems, plus a couple of repubs voting no because the gop has been infiltrated by the left just like every other institution.
Nothing else explains why we keep losing.
Time to primary the whole House Ethics Committee out of office. What a disappointment they are with a two tiered justice program.
