| The corruption is starting early with the new class of far-left Democrats |
| 2019-03-04 |
| [American Thinker] The press has made a big deal about the new class of Democrats rolling into Congress and beyond, touting their 'diversity,' their 'socialism,' their 'sisterhood.' Most of us look at that group and see 'extremism,' particularly with the kinds of views they've presented, and the obnoxious gaffes they've blundered into, apologized for or not. They're new, after all. But there's something different about this batch of Democrats we haven't seen much in the past: The corruption accusations and investigations surrounding virtually all of them, most pretty solid-looking. Here's a short list, starting with a Daily Mail report, via GatewayPundit. : ...What do we have here? Lost taxpayer money. Campaign finance violations. Pocket-lining. Illegal money diversions. Expense manipulations. Marriage fraud. They've been in office as little as two or three months and we are seeing this? Most of these are the kinds of crimes you see in old-line machine politicians, the kind who have suppurated in office for too long, and whose final game is to get rich before making the grand getaway. Republicans and Democrats in the past who have been charged with these kinds of things have typically been around awhile. Now we are seeing the new socialist class getting started right away, all of them viewing government as the right way to get rich. It's always been noteworthy how the socialist societies these people champion abroad have always found ways to form nomenklaturas of designated ruling class members with access to vast wealth and special privileges, courtesy of the state. It's seen in socialist rule worldwide. ...And now the current crop of self-declared socialists is jumping right in, too. The one thing you can say about these corruption allegations among these U.S. Democrats who seek to rule us is that the corruption starts early. We are actually seeing it forming now. |

| #2 Just continuing their leftist traditions. Lining their pockets with other people's money as fast as they can. |
