This guy's fatal mistake was being a Democrat. If he were a Republican, he could just ignore this....

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Busted: 62 members of Congress caught breaking the law
https://www.rawstory.com/congress-stock/
The first is the case of Senator John Fetterman, who committed 31 STOCK Act violations with stock trades involving his children, while others were made in companies he directly oversees.

Barely going to get a fine. This happens daily in congress.
So he reported late, and might get a $200 fine. OK. Why do I feel like he reported it now because he was doing his taxes and saw the stock sales and went 'oh shit', better late than never?
On the bright side, he’s a dem so we can be reasonably sure there will be justice. Unless he flips parties of course.
While I agree that actual justice needs to be served here...
What he sees might well likely bear little resemblance to "justice" and much more to a sacrifice/crucifixion...
MAGAts have such a slim majority they might just use this as a handy way to increase that majority by one.
🙄 🤡
"justice"
there will be justice
lol.... You ever heard of chuck and nancy?
