What really destroys trust in Congress isnt even just the misconduct itself anymore, its the feeling that theres an entirely different set of consequences for powerful people. In most workplaces repeated harassment allegations would end someones career quickly. In politics it too often turns into quiet settlements, party damage control and everyone pretending to be shocked until the next scandal arrives a few months later.

Mike Johnson? The guy who was so addicted to p*** he had a monitoring app on his phone and his son’s phone so they could monitor each other’s p*** habit? That totally normal guy?

Good luck getting Republicans on board while they're blocking the release of the single most disgusting sexual misconduct documents in history. That multiple members of this admin have been listed on.

So instead of putting our tax dollars to good use they’re talking about putting themselves through perv rehab. Feels like we are much more in need of a do-over than a clean up.

First step, release the complete epstein files and unredact the names of the pedophiles.

The US House leaders are definitely NOT the people to head this up, unless they will be using their personal expertise.

I’m surprised people weren’t vocal about anything like that at all, much less Congress!
