As an actual leftist, I hope they throw the book at him. Politicians should not be above the law.

Samesies and thank you.

clearedtoland ,

You…you mean he doesn’t have immunity for “official acts?” Shouldn’t they appeal this to SCOTUS?

Emphatic /s.

LEDZeppelin ,

He doesn’t have that magic R next to his name

LibertyLizard ,

Accepting bribes clearly relates to official acts. That’s what they’re paying him for!

somethingsnappy ,

It doesn’t matter anymore if he takes the money after.

Also

I hope they throw the book at him. Politicians should not be above the law.

If we don’t stamp out corruption we could end up like the countries in the world where it’s particularly damaging, to most everyone’s daily life. Certainly there’s plenty already but not yet to the extent elsewhere.

My sincerest condolences

sunzu ,

I thought corruption was part of the tri state DNA, how else can you do business there?

tastysnacks ,

Don’t get caught. It’s the arrogance that gets you.

BigMacHole ,

Politicians should NEVER be ABOVE the Law unless they’re Republican in Which Case they should be able to LITERALLY KILL AMERICANS AND US SERVICEMEN with immunity!

    Which is great.

    Can some conservatives find out too? It would be awesome if everyone was held accountable.

    Viking_Hippie ,

    He IS a conservative. But yes, Republicans need to find out as well.

    cybervseas ,

    Good! Now if only Supreme Court Justices also had to face legal scrutiny. Oh, and presidents, too, pretty please.

    fartington ,

    Fucking finally. Looking forward to voting for Mr. Andy Kim.

    It’s always funny how when it’s a democratic politician found guilty, everyone agrees it’s fair and right. When it’s a Republican, it’s a witch hunt for half of the country.

    Shit, I’m struggling to remember the last time they let it get as far as a guilty conviction or plea for a congressional Republican

    Lemminary ,

    And I’m struggling to remember a time when one wasn’t convicted every other week!

    eran_morad ,

    Hastert? No, that Duncan Hunter dude. Who was — of course — pardoned by trump.

    NotMyOldRedditName ,

    That dude who literally lied through his teeth the whole campaign? House member?

    Sigh. If only he were President, then it’d be OK.

    Got_Bent ,

    Or a supreme Court Justice

    Delusional ,

    If he just ran as republican, he’d have the backing of all the other corrupt criminal republicans in office.

    MelodiousFunk ,

    Awesome! Now let’s get his nepo baby out of congress before he can cause (more?) damage.

    Gonna feel weird in November to vote for someone (Kim) for once, instead of just against whoever is worse.

    TipRing ,

    How brazen do you have to be to get convicted of bribery as a congresscritter? If he had just had a fundraising dinner with $500k plates he’d have been totally fine, but no he went with stuffing gold bars into his clothes. It just shows how these people think that consequences are for other people.

    Omgpwnies ,

    Jon Stewart agrees

    dogslayeggs ,

    Fucking good. Everyone needs to be held accountable, and nobody is above the law.

    cabron_offsets ,

    Shoulda got judge Aileen Cannon.
